Home and Away Spoilers – Marilyn’s personality transplant shocks the bay
Coming up next week on Home and Away in the UK, a change in Marilyn’s demeanour shocks her loved ones after she’s brought out of her induced coma.
The chemical attack at the surf club continued to cause devastation last week, when Marilyn Chambers (Emily Symons) was found collapsed by Mackenzie (Emily Weir) on parkland close to the diner, having been out there all night after becoming partially paralysed.
Dr Logan Bennett (Harley Bonner) could only diagnose Marilyn’s symptoms as some sort of delayed reaction to the organophosphate exposure, and was forced to place her into an induced coma when the paralysis then started spreading to her lungs.
This week, Logan remains mystified as to the exact cause of Marilyn’s paralysis, with all the usual bacterial and viral tests coming back clear.
Out of options, Logan decides that the only thing he can try is to bring Marilyn back out of her sedation, and see if she is able to breathe on her own. Logan acknowledges to Alf (Ray Meagher) that it is a risk, but it’s one worth taking.
As Marilyn comes round, she starts coughing as she fights against the ventilator, which Logan confirms is a good sign!
With Marilyn now conscious and communicating as normal, Logan begins further tests, only to find that Marilyn still can’t feel her legs.
Alf points out that it’s early days and maybe a bit of time is all it will take.
Later that evening, Irene (Lynne McGranger) and John (Shane Withington) are relieved that Marilyn has pulled through, and, whilst Marilyn is happy to see Irene, she suddenly asks John why he’s there.
He’s stunned as she goes on to say that they’re not friends and whatever happens to her now is none of his business—after all, they are divorced.
An equally confused Irene tries to explain that John has been by Marilyn’s side every day but she’s not having a bar of it, and asks John to leave.
