Yahoo Finance 16 Home and Away spoilers for next week
Home and Away spoilers follow for UK viewers.
Next week on Home and Away, Nikau does the unthinkable by sleeping with scheming Sienna.
Elsewhere, an explosion leaves lives hanging in the balance, while Justin's erratic behaviour continues to concern everyone.
Here's a full collection of 16 big moments coming up.
1. Nikau misses Bella's big event
It's the night of Bella and Emmett's exhibition preview at Salt. Nikau has promised to be there once he returns from modelling commitments in the city, but Sienna does everything she can to delay his arrival.
Sienna also asks Allegra to play a role in causing trouble between Nikau and Bella. She's convinced that, if the young couple stay together, Nikau will refuse to be part of the three-month modelling contract in Japan.
Attending the photography event, Allegra sneakily steals Bella's phone and impersonates her in a number of texts to Nikau, making out that the event hasn't started yet and he needn't hurry back.
2. Nikau gets the wrong idea
Sienna invites Nikau to spend time in her lavish city apartment as she attempts to delay him further. Bella grows increasingly upset over Nikau's continued absence and seeks comfort from Emmett, who hugs her.
Allegra sends a photo of this to Sienna, who then shows Nikau. Nikau is devastated over the false impression that Bella is cheating on him with Emmett.
Sienna puts the next stage of her plan into action by seducing Nikau. She's delighted when he falls into the trap and spends the night with her.
3. An explosion rocks the Bay
An ordinary morning in the Bay takes a disastrous turn when Ryder and Chloe's food truck explodes. Emmett is caught up in the carnage and suffers an eye injury, which leaves him requiring urgent treatment in the city.
Ryder searches for Chloe and finds her stuck below some debris. Chloe has a shrapnel wound in her abdomen and Jasmine has to rush to the rescue while they wait for the emergency services to arrive.
After helping others at the scene, Jasmine's own health takes a dramatic turn for the worse when she collapses with a suspected brain bleed.
4. Fingers are pointed over the explosion
Chloe is rushed to hospital, where she requires emergency surgery. Mia is left in a highly emotional state and bitterly blames Ryder for what happened to her daughter.
Meanwhile, Ryder has some shocking accusations of his own to make when he claims that Mac must have deliberately sabotaged the truck as part of their ongoing business wars.
Mac, who's already struggling after discovering that Ari and Mia are expecting a baby together, is devastated that Ryder could suspect her of stooping so low.
5. Nikau realises he has been duped
Nikau feels terrible after betraying Bella by sleeping with Sienna. When he returns home to the Bay, he finds the town in chaos due to the explosion.
Nikau and Bella later find the time to compare notes over what happened the night before. They're shocked to learn that Sienna and Allegra spent the entire evening scheming to keep them apart, with the misleading photo also giving Nikau the wrong impression over what was going on.
Now aware that Bella didn't cheat on him, Nikau feels even worse for what he did. However, he stops short of telling Bella that he slept with Sienna.
6. Sienna blackmails Nikau
Sienna continues to play games by making her presence felt in the Bay and asking to see Bella's exhibition. Nikau is terrified that she might reveal something to Bella.
Nikau chooses to confess to his uncle Tane about what he did the night before. Tane insists that Nikau has to do the right thing by telling Bella the truth, but Nikau is nervous and keeps chickening out of any opportunity to come clean.
Later, Nikau tries standing up to Sienna and refuses to do any more modelling jobs for her, including the trip to Japan. He's quickly outsmarted by Sienna, who threatens to tell Bella everything if he doesn't change his mind.
7. The truth about the explosion is revealed
Mac continues her attempts to defend herself to Ryder, insisting that she had nothing to do with the explosion. Ryder still isn't sure that he believes her.
Later, however, Ryder receives a call from the police, who confirm that the explosion was actually caused by a faulty gas line. Ryder's emotions are turned upside-down as he stops accusing Mac and instead starts blaming himself for not noticing something was wrong.
8. Irene is quizzed by a new detective
As the dust settles from the explosion, focus turns back to the 'Who killed Susie?' investigation. When Irene is on the way to the Diner, a woman called Amy Peters asks if this is where Susie's body was found. Irene is cold towards her, assuming that she's an insensitive tourist.
Later, Irene is horrified to learn that Amy is actually the new detective in charge of the investigation, as the homicide taskforce has arrived in town.
Amy demands another interview from Irene and puts the pressure on her, making it very clear that she's a top suspect.
Home and Away fans may recognise Amy from her previous appearance in feature-length spin-off Home and Away: Revenge.
9. Dean discovers Justin's addiction
Dean becomes concerned for Ziggy when he realises that she still doesn't feel safe around Justin. However, all becomes clear to Dean when Justin asks him to score some painkillers for him.
Dean realises that Justin has a drug problem and feels more sympathetic towards him. Dean, Ziggy and Tane all try to help Justin, but he still seems a long way from accepting anyone's support.
10. Ziggy is questioned over Justin
Amy decides to bring Ziggy in for questioning to see what she'll reveal about Justin, another prime suspect for Susie's murder. Ziggy tries to defend Justin, but becomes frustrated when Amy twists her words.
Later, Ziggy returns home and is horrified to find Justin there, as he's looking for some leftover painkillers that she'd previously confiscated from him.
Justin's erratic behaviour and refusal to leave frightens Ziggy. In the end, Justin finally heads out when Ziggy threatens to call the police.
11. Cash becomes annoyed by Amy's tactics
Amy asks Cash to take her to dinner somewhere in town. When Amy sees Stephen and Leah having dinner together, she can't resist asking them some questions off the record about the Susie case.
Stephen lets slip to Amy that he and Leah weren't with John when he recently received fake messages from an impostor who was pretending to be Susie. This intrigues Amy, as it means that John could have sent the texts himself.
Cash is annoyed by Amy's unusual tactics and makes it clear that he prefers things to be done by the book, causing tension between the two colleagues.
12. John faces scandalous allegations
John faces another round of questioning from Amy, who has figured out that he has time unaccounted for around the time that Susie disappeared.
Amy also pulls up John over the texts, believing that John could have sent them to himself to throw everyone off the track. John is outraged to realise that Stephen dropped him in it with the police.
John and Stephen later clash over their conflicting recollections over what happened. Irene suggests that they should stop the bickering, as the police will want them to turn on each other.
13. Leah and Stephen grow closer
Justin's concerning behaviour continues as he buys more pain medication from a dodgy dealer.
Meanwhile, Leah continues to lean on Stephen for support as she despairs over the situation. Their friendship takes a turn when they almost kiss, but they stop themselves. Leah confirms that, despite everything, she's still committed to Justin and doesn't want to take things any further.
14. Roo invites Kieran to stay
Roo reads a letter that Kieran wants her to pass onto Martha once she returns from her break in Merimbula. Roo is sympathetic after reading the emotional note and decides that her troubled half-brother deserves a second chance.
As the caravan park is currently full, Roo tells Kieran that he can stay on the couch for a while. Ryder is worried over this, reminding Roo about all of the trouble that Kieran caused last time.
15. Kieran makes a confession
Kieran realises that he needs to be honest with Roo, so he tells her that he doesn't have an Alcoholics Anonymous sponsor. This was part of his release conditions and he has lied to the police about it.
Roo tries to help Kieran by asking Irene to be his sponsor, but Irene isn't keen on the idea. When Kieran has to come clean with the police about his deception, Cash takes a kind approach by offering to help him find someone suitable.
16. Christian rejects Rachel
Rachel is due to be discharged from hospital soon, but has mixed feelings over this as she won't be spending as much time with Christian from now on. At the same time, Jasmine confronts Christian over his controversial decision to sacrifice his happiness with Tori in favour of treating Rachel.
Christian finally realises that he has gone too far when Rachel reaches out to tenderly touch him. He sets the record straight that he never saw Rachel as a romantic match, but apologises if he gave her the wrong impression.
