Episode 16

Stephanie is hiding out with Ahmal in Bahrain but despite his attempts to talk her into staying and building a life with him, she knows she has to return home. Jilly nearly catches Jake in bed with his new receptionist, Gayle. At dinner, Jake reveals to Jilly he was wrong to have pursued Stephanie romantically and only did so due to her position at Harper Mining. Stephanie convinces Ahmal to let his sister, Princess Talitha, accompany them on their return to Australia.

Dennis intends to take Jake through the courts to get his mother's company back and needs Cassie's help to embezzle the funds. To shore up Sanders Investments' finances, Jake's lawyer suggests he seek out BIll McMaster who may be open to a job offer after his son's accident. While enjoying their honeymoon, Angelo and Sarah speculate about finding her mother's ring and Sarah wonders if, like Dennis believes, Stephanie could still be alive. John disguises himself as an orderly to see Tom in hospital.

Jake offers Bill McMaster a job at Sanders Investments as a business consultant to help keep the company afloat. Dennis and Cassie make a late-night visit to Sanders Investments where they begin pulling money out of the company. Bill talks to Dan about Jake's job offer and decides to accept so he can find proof that Jake took over the company illegally. Dan is not ready to open his heart to Jessica.

Stephanie returns to Australia disguised as Princess Talitha (and she as her travelling companion). John is on hand to meet her at the airport and she reveals her disguise. The group take over a floor of the same hotel where Jake is staying. To protect Stephanie's ruse, John asks Ahmal not to let her know that Tom is in hospital and that Sarah doesn't yet know the truth about her and Tom.

Stephanie (as Talitha) and Ahmla meet with Jake, Jilly and Bill for dinner. Ahmal has a new lucrative business deal for Sanders Investments while Stephanie is shocked to learn that Jake and Jilly are engaged. Olive is irked at being turfed out of Eden so Tilitha can move in. Stephanie is upset to see Dan kiss Jessica and is comforted by Ahmal.

Jake tasks Jilly with finding out from Talitha why Ahmla wants to purchase a large tract of land. Jake catches Olive trying to put a snake in Jilly's shower. He throws Olive in the shower with the snake but ignores her pleas for help, not believing her that the snake is poisonous. Jake yells after Jilly to show her Olive's crime but when he opens the shower door, Olive is dead.
