Home and Away to air devastating Felicity Newman storyline
There's an upsetting incident at Battle of the Bands.
Felicity is supporting her friends Kirby Aramoana, Remi Carter, Eden Fowler and Theo Poulos at a Battle of the Bands contest when an unknown individual spikes her drink.
The upcoming scenes see Lyrik team up with talented violinist Mercedes de Silva to give them the best chance of winning the competition.
Felicity and Bree Cameron both attend and enjoy the music, but while they're dancing together, somebody pours a vial of drugs into Felicity's drink.
When Felicity starts to feel unwell, she heads outside for some air. Before she can reach the exit door, Felicity stumbles on the stairs and loses consciousness.
Later, Lyrik celebrate winning the audience prize in the contest. They notice Felicity's absence, but wrongly assume that she has headed off to reunite with her husband Tane Parata, who is back from a trip to New Zealand.
When Felicity regains consciousness and rejoins her friends, it's clear that something is seriously wrong. Eden and Bree rush in to get her the help she needs.
At the hospital, Felicity tells Bree and Eden that she thinks she was sexually assaulted after she lost consciousness.
Felicity insists that she doesn't want the police to be involved, but she does allow Bree to perform a forensic exam. Afterwards, Felicity breaks down in Eden's arms.
In the aftermath, Felicity accepts support from Tane, Eden and also later confides in her brother Cash.
Support from everyone later encourages Felicity to visit the police station to make a statement about what happened. Will the perpetrator be found and brought to justice?
