Home and Away spoilers follow for UK viewers.
Home and Away’s Justin Morgan finds himself trapped with manipulative newcomer Claudia on UK screens next week.
Justin is left horrified as Claudia makes a play for him and doesn’t handle his rejection well.
In recent weeks, Justin has become Claudia’s unofficial driver in a bid to make amends for the negligence of his car repair business.
Claudia suffered a nasty arm injury in a crash when Justin’s nephew Theo Poulos failed to check her vehicle properly.
The mistake left Claudia unable to drive around for work, so Justin stepped in to transport her but chose not to tell his wife Leah about the deal. This culminated in Justin leading a double life, constantly lying to Leah about his whereabouts.
As the saga continues next week, Leah’s friend Marilyn Chambers becomes suspicious over Justin’s strange behaviour.
Marilyn jumps to the conclusion that Justin is preparing a romantic surprise for Leah to celebrate the first anniversary of their engagement – news which quickly gets back to Leah.
With crossed wires aplenty, Leah heads over to Salt and quizzes Xander Delaney about a booking that she believes Justin has made for them. She feels humiliated when Xander confirms that there is no booking.
As Leah questions why Justin is being so secretive, Theo sets the record straight by explaining about his secret deal with Claudia.
Leah is unable to get hold of Justin, so she meets up with Claudia’s estranged husband Eric instead.
Stirring the pot, Eric claims that he broke up with Claudia because she was having an affair. He adds that, if Claudia is mysteriously hanging around Justin, they’re sure to be sleeping together too.
Meanwhile, Justin prepares to drive Claudia home but she insists on making one last stop-off at a remote cabin in the bush.
Once there, Claudia finally makes her move by kissing Justin. The car mechanic quickly rejects her and professes his loyalty to Leah, but Claudia questions why he’s sneaking around with her if he has a healthy marriage.
A regretful Justin tries to leave, but Claudia steals his car keys and throws them far out into the bush.
Totally trapped, Justin searches hopelessly for the missing keys and even tries to hot-wire his car once darkness falls.
Back in the Bay, Leah seethes over Justin’s absence on their anniversary and continues to fret over Eric’s damning claims. Could this messy situation tear the married couple apart?
