What can we expect from this episode

Stella (Marta Dusseldorp) is put on trial by Frankie (Kerry Fox) in front of the town residents so that Frankie can reassert her authority, but Stella negotiates to pay the town a large sum of money every two weeks, even though she has no idea how she will come up with the cash.

Frankie feels threatened by the growing disloyalty of the townspeople, so she orders punishments for those who supported Stella during the trial.
In order to decipher Kumar’s USB vindaloo recipe, Airini (Rachel House) contacts an old coworker for assistance in her investigation of ProsperAus Finance.

Stella and the kids are told to be ready to leave at a moment’s notice as she gets perilously close to solving the case and begins trial preparations, including arranging a private plane out of Mystery Bay.

When Stella overlooks Otis’ (Imi Mbedla) birthday, he becomes increasingly irritated with her. As Otis and Elysha’s (Mackenzie Grant) relationship develops, both of their interests in each other intensify. Elysha tells Otis, however, that she is only interested in dating within The Community and that she has already made a commitment to another member of the group.

Things start to go wrong for Stella, Otis, and Iris (Ava Caryofyllis) as they try to leave Mystery Bay.

Set in the wilds of Tasmania, Marta will play lead character Stella Heikkinen whose fall from grace is as spectacular as it is life threatening.

Betrayed by her own company and in immediate danger – single mother of two Stella has no option but to move her young family to the last place on earth anyone would expect. This town isn’t the kind of place they put on postcards, this is a tiny community rife with simmering feuds, crime and sometimes, murder.
