Irene Roberts (played by Lynne McGranger) appears to have hit rock bottom after being scammed by con woman, Bronte Langford, on Home and Away (1:45pm - see our TV Guide for listings).
Although Bronte has now been arrested and is facing criminal charges, Irene is feeling broken and humiliated after being made a fool of by "terminally-ill" Bronte.
On today's episode of the Aussie soap, things take a worrying turn when Irene returns home... with a bottle of whisky.
Recovering alcoholic Irene has been sober for years.
But as troubled Irene stares at the bottle of booze, will she be tempted to fall off the wagon and drown her sorrows?
Meanwhile, Irene's beach house lodger Dana Matheson (Ally Harris) is also dealing with the aftermath of Bronte's cruel scam.
Dana is still angry that her own boyfriend, Xander Delaney (Luke Van Os), didn't believe her suspicions that Bronte was up to no good.
It was only after Dana was kidnapped by Bronte and her criminal accomplice Chase that Xander realised the TERRIBLE truth!
Dana's nearest and dearest try to convince her to give Xander another chance.
But does Dana see a future with a man she can't completely put her faith in?
