Next week on Home and Away, the seemingly exciting launch of a new record label threatens to unravel friendships, reopen old wounds, and expose secrets

that could permanently alter lives in Summer Bay. What begins as a bold creative venture quickly spirals into emotional devastation—especially for Remi and Eden,

whose bond may never recover from what’s coming. Last week marked a major milestone for Remi Carter and Sunny Sloane as they officially signed Eddie Shepard

as the first artist on their newly formed label, Back on Track Records. The moment was meant to signal a fresh start, a declaration that Remi was finally moving forward after the collapse of his band Lyric. But Eddie’s arrival doesn’t just change the future of the label—it triggers a chain reaction that places strain on relationships far beyond the recording studio.

With the studio still unfinished, Remi and Sunny scrambled to impress Eddie, even roping Eden Fowler into their elaborate façade. Eden, ever loyal, agreed to pose as one of the label’s existing artists to sell the illusion of success. However, when Sunny arrived late and the plan fell apart, Remi was forced to admit the truth. Eddie was initially unimpressed by the deception, but Sunny’s charm ultimately won him over, and Eddie agreed to take a leap of faith with the fledgling label.

As Remi’s best friend and longtime bandmate since high school, Eden was thrilled to play even a small role in helping Remi chase his dream. She believed—perhaps naively—that this new chapter would still include her.

That belief is shattered next week.

Eager to remain involved, Eden goes out of her way to support Remi and Sunny as they meet for a strategy session at Salt. She organizes the table, orders their favorite pizzas, and carves out time to contribute. But once the meeting begins, it becomes painfully clear that Eden is no longer welcome at the table.

When she offers suggestions about Eddie’s upcoming launch, Remi gently but firmly shuts her down. He assures her everything is under control—and by the end of the meeting, the only thing he asks of her is another coffee. The dismissal is subtle, but devastating. Eden leaves feeling invisible.

Cash Newman immediately senses her frustration and encourages her to speak up. But Eden refuses to force herself into a space where she feels unwanted. Instead, Cash confronts Remi directly, questioning why Eden—who helped build his musical career—has suddenly been sidelined.

Remi doesn’t sugarcoat the truth. While he acknowledges their shared history, he admits the label represents his attempt to move on from Lyric and redefine himself. For now, he wants to do it without Eden.

Cash understands Remi’s honesty, but chooses not to repeat it to Eden, knowing how deeply it would hurt. That silence only prolongs Eden’s internal conflict, leaving her torn between confronting Remi and protecting herself from further heartbreak.

The next day, Remi and Sunny meet Eddie to plan his debut, listening to tracks and debating which song should lead the launch. When Remi praises Eddie’s track Are We There, Eddie reveals it was written about a friend who was struggling—someone he couldn’t help before she shut him out. The confession carries a haunting resonance.

The meeting is abruptly interrupted when Eden arrives, determined to finally talk things through. Remi pulls her aside and makes it clear he’s in the middle of a client meeting. When he asks what Cash told her, Eden is left humiliated. The confrontation ends with Eden turning on Cash for interfering—just as Remi shows up to finally explain himself.

His words are gentle but final. He tells Eden that while he wouldn’t be where he is without her, this label has to be his alone. Eden, fighting back tears, asks the question she’s been dreading: “You, me, music… we’re done?”

Remi reassures her he still loves her as a friend—but for now, he has to walk this path without her.

Eden puts on a brave face, but her heartbreak is undeniable. With Kirby thriving overseas on a world tour and Remi moving forward without her, Eden is left wondering if she’ll ever catch her break—or if she’s destined to be left behind.

Meanwhile, Eddie’s presence ripples through Summer Bay in an entirely unexpected way.

As Eddie leaves the surf club, he spots David Thompson and calls out to him. The reunion is emotional—and revealing. Eddie is the former boyfriend of David’s daughter, Jo, and they were together when Jo’s mother, Christina, died. Their shared history is heavy, painful, and unresolved.

David updates Eddie on recent developments, including the revelation that another driver caused the crash that killed Christina and is now awaiting sentencing. While Jo has struggled since moving to Summer Bay, recent breakthroughs have eased her panic attacks, giving the family hope that she can finally heal.

That hope is shaken when Eddie re-enters Jo’s life.

When Jo comes home and discovers Eddie waiting, she’s stunned. Eddie reveals he’s signed with a local record label—news Jo had no idea about. His sudden reappearance reopens emotional wounds Jo believed were closed.

Although Lacey is thrilled to see Eddie and excited that he’ll be sticking around, Jo is anything but comfortable. The situation grows more complicated when Eddie admits he’s missed her and wonders if she’s thought about him since their breakup.

Jo cancels plans with Tane, overwhelmed by the resurfacing emotions she wasn’t prepared to confront. Tane, confused by the sudden distance, seeks answers—and learns from Lacey that Eddie is Jo’s ex.

Determined not to leave Tane in the dark, Jo finally comes clean. Eddie’s return has stirred feelings she hasn’t fully processed, and she needs time to understand what it means.

The question now looms large: has Eddie’s arrival ended Jo and Tane’s relationship before it’s even begun?

As Home and Away builds toward another emotionally charged week, the fallout from one bold career move proves that in Summer Bay, the past is never truly buried—and the truth always finds its way to the surface.
