Martin and Lance tell Tom
that Danny is in hospital after trying to commit suicide. Tom gets very worried
and tells Pippa about it.
Sally hears about
Danny's suicide attempt. She can't see how serious it is and she plays
suicide with Lance!
Floss and Sally talk.
Floss explains what suicide means and why some try to kill themselves. Sally
understands it better now and sees the whole thing differently after Floss has
talked to her about it.
Tom and Pippa and her
parents Bert and Coral King visit Danny in hospital. Tom and Pippa find out from
her parents that Danny took a lot of pills in his attempt to kill himself.
Coral blames herself,
sort of, for Danny's suicide attempt. She feels she should have done something
differently with him.
Tom speaks to Danny.
Danny says it wasn't fair what he did to Pippa on ANZAC day. Danny had left a
note on Tom and Pippa's television set also. Tom is puzzled what Danny meant
with all he said since he doesn't know that Danny asked Pippa to help him
commit suicide.
Tom asks Pippa what Danny
meant. After a while she tells Tom the truth that Danny asked her to help him to
stop living.
Lynn and Carly collect
more bugs for Lynn's biology project.
Tom gets a bit angry and
disappointed at Danny for what he asked Pippa to do.
Tom
asks Danny to come with them to Summer Bay. Tom says he and Pippa want to show
Danny that there are things in life that makes it worth staying alive even if
you are stuck in a wheelchair.
