 What's next in Summer Bay?

Coming up on Home and Away, David's life hangs in the balance after being accidentally shot by Richie.

Elsewhere, Sonny embarks down a dangerous path when he starts taking steroids, and there's a new doctor in Summer Bay.

Here's a full collection of 13 massive moments.

Alf and John take action

Alf calls a meeting with Mali, Tane and John to form a plan in response to the recent spate of thefts in Summer Bay.

John is delighted when Alf instructs him to take the lead with the project. The two stalwarts create safety flyers for members of the community, encouraging them to be vigilant.

Mac lashes out at Levi

Levi gets a nasty shock when he wakes up to discover Mackenzie has gone. He calls Mali, who joins in the search and eventually finds his friend on the beach.

Mac returns to Levi and the couple finally start to connect over their shared grief. But later, the mood switches when Mac tells Levi he should leave her for someone who will be able to give him a baby.

 Sonny receives a dangerous offer

Tane confronts Sonny over breaking into the gym and lays down the law, saying that he's only allowed to use the facilities for an hour a day, under supervision.

Feeling frustrated, Sonny runs into a man called Beau, who offers him performance-enhancing drugs to speed up his recovery. Will Sonny be tempted?

Sonny starts taking steroids

After having to cancel his date with Dana due to tiredness, Sonny makes a call to Beau asking for supplements.

Remi witnesses Sonny talking to an unknown man, but remains oblivious to what's going on.

Once alone, Sonny opens the small bottle of pills he's been sold and proceeds to take one.

Mac and Levi need to be alone

Tensions are running high in Eden and Cash's crowded house, as Abigail and Remi clash over their current living arrangements.

Meanwhile, Levi is deeply hurt over Mac's comment about him leaving her for someone else. He insists his life is with her, children or no children.

Needing more time to process their loss, Mac and Levi ask Eden and Abigail not to keep popping by and give them space.

 Richie continues to mess up

Abigail and Richie's romance is still going strong as the lusty duo hook up in Salt's store cupboard.

Richie arrives back at the station and calls Justin in for an interview about his stolen van. But as Richie exerts his authority, furious Justin realises he's being accused of setting the whole thing up.

Cash is equally angry with Richie for breaking protocol and dismisses him for the rest of the day.

Richie witnesses a theft

Richie faces David, who insists that he must learn some restraint if he's ever going to make it in the force.

The rookie cop heads out on patrol, where he witnesses someone stealing Lacey's purse and driving off in Justin's stolen van.

Richie abandons Lacey and jumps into the patrol car to give chase, but is unable to catch the criminal.

Eden makes a big decision

Eden stuns Cash when she declares she's going to get sterilised to eliminate the risk of accidentally falling pregnant.

Although Cash gives his blessing, it's clear he's struggling to understand Eden's change of heart over children.

Eden confides in Remi, who thinks it's a lot for both her and Cash and suggests she gives her husband some time to process.

Tane and Archie leave for New Zealand

Jo wants to clear the air with Tane and apologise for the drunk voicemail, but he's not interested in talking.

Harper reassures Jo that Tane never received the message because she dialled her instead.

Tane then takes a call from Nikau, who invites him to New Zealand. He's initially reluctant to leave Archie, but Harper gives her blessing for their son to join him.

There's a new doctor in town

Lacey is taken to the Surf Club after being stung by a bluebottle.

Alf is on hand to help and is giving Lacey a heat pack when they're interrupted by Amelia Carlisle, a local passing doctor.

Amelia tends to Lacey's wound, leading an impressed Alf to offer her a job at the Surf Club, which she politely declines.

 David is caught in the crossfire

There's a breakthrough in the case when David and Richie receive word that Justin's van has been found at a campsite in the bush.

They arrive on the scene and question a woman called Alana, who claims that her boyfriend bought the van from a man by the side of the road.

An angry confrontation with Alana's boyfriend ensues and Richie pulls out his gun, ready to pull the trigger. David tries to stop Richie, but ends up taking a bullet and slumping to the ground.

Richie fears for his future

Critically ill David is rushed to hospital, where medics battle to save his life.

Distraught Richie confesses to accidentally shooting his boss and is suspended from duty by police commissioner Maya.

Cash orders Richie to go home, but he doesn't want to leave, knowing this could be his last time standing in the station as an officer.

 Amelia saves David's life

Back at the hospital, things aren't looking good for David as he goes into cardiac arrest.

ED Doctor Amelia Carlisle performs CPR. After three gruelling rounds, she brings him back, before surgery is performed to remove the bullet.

Richie soon arrives at the hospital, desperate to see David. But can Jo and Lacey ever forgive him for almost killing their father?
