5429: Indi catches Mink leaving town

Clearly still torn by his mother's alcohol problem, Romeo is upset at Mink because he believes she has been drinking. However, when Mink reveals that she has Miniere disease and will never be able to competitively surf again, Romeo worries about her and her future.

Romeo asks Mink to stay in Summer Bay and help him out with the Surf School, which she agrees to. Later, though, Indi catches Mink secretly leaving town. She tries to stop her and tells her to speak to Romeo, but Mink refuses and just leaves him a note.

Meanwhile, Alf is in full swing with his campaign against Harvey for the council position. However, it's becoming quite clear that Alf has no platform in his campaign, and so he decides to gather the people of Summer Bay and see what they want the council to do for them.

Elsewhere, Sasha runs into Stu at the surf comp. He tells her that he forgives her for lying to Sid about whose idea the tattoo was. Later, Sasha is at the bus stop when Stu drives past and offers her a lift home. She refuses, so he gets angry and chases her. When Sasha returns home later that night, she is covered in bruises.
