SPOILERS FOR BBC NEIGHBOURS, 03-07 MAR'08 (5346-5350)


Karl is surprised by further tests, which show Susan has no brain damage.
Elle can't persuade Brad to print any retraction to Riley's story. While
Jessica wins Ringo's pity by pretending that Rachel has bullied her, Zeke
wins Taylah's admiration by not letting Justin bully him. Stephanie sadly
concludes that Libby is lying to her. Though Ringo nurses a broken heart,
Rachel only has eyes for an attractive stranger. Karl has to rescue Susan
when she picks up a hot casserole dish, unable to feel her hands burning.

With Susan in bandages, the uncertainty plays upon Zeke & Rachel's orphan
fears, suspecting they're being lied to again. Brad invites Elle to write
her own article about the drought affecting local farms. Susan tries to do
housework, so Ben dobs her in to Libby. To let Prue leave in peace, Frazer
& Rosetta help Ringo draft a contract pledging to embrace counselling, and
eat three meals a day. Reminding Karl he's no longer a doctor, Susan joins
Libby on a shopping trip - where her blurry vision fades to black.

Thanks to prompt action by Sophie, a whimpering Susan is rushed off to the
hospital, where Karl leans on her physician to order an MRI scan. Stephanie
is infuriated by Jarrod bringing her flowers from Rebecca's desk - until he
eats them, to make her forgive him. Carmella is secretly jealous as Marco's
charm wins over a difficult & gorgeous client. Riley has to contend with a
demoralised Bridget wanting to give up her physiotherapy. Blind & scared,
Susan baulks at being imprisoned, utterly alone, in the noisy machine.

After Karl holds onto Susan to get through her MRI ordeal, they receive a
dire diagnosis - early stages of Multiple Sclerosis. Josh changes Bridget's
mind by pointing out he will always be stuck in a wheelchair, but she still
has options. Kirsten works hard at Charlie's Bar, but Janae won't trust her
with Mickey. Marco makes Carmella admit to her feelings by pretending he's
dating his client. While Karl breaks down in private, Zeke is strong for a
distraught Libby, accepting her affection & appreciating her honesty.

Ned is considerate of Kirsten's feelings, as they make arrangements for
their son. Valda secretly sells her car to raise funds. When Mickey blabs
about his misadventure in the old trunk, Ned lets Kirsten berate Janae for
coaching the boy in a lie. Jarrod thinks Valda's car has been stolen, which
Stephanie reports back to Adam. At Charlie's, while Libby takes a call from
Darren, Rachel meets her handsome young man again, discovering his name is
Angus. Declan is aghast to see Bridget receive her first kiss - from Josh.
