Irene is arrested in dramatic fashion and forced to spend the night behind bars this week. And with the odds seemingly stacked against the Summer Bay stalwart, future is looking bleak.
In Home And Away, Irene (Lynne McGranger) waits impatiently at the police station for cop Cash (Nicholas Cartwright) to arrive.

Dana and John (Shane Withington) are furious, but scramble to make it right – the only problem is that Cash is nowhere to be seen. He’s been suspended for his actions and has taken a leave of absence.
While he believes he did the right thing in exposing corrupt cop Madden (Jonny Pasvolsky), Cash’s radical decisions may cost him his badge.

“Cash feels so justified in his cause that he can’t imagine why he could be punished for fighting police corruption,” Nicholas tells TV WEEK.
After several calls from John, he finally arrives at the station. Irene is relieved – until Cash explains that, as long as he’s suspended, there’s nothing he can do to help her.
Furthermore, the magistrate can’t see them until morning, so Irene and Harper must spend the night behind bars.
Cash rages at the injustice of it all.
Is the job he loves worth the pain?
Irene and Harper are released next morning, but advised to get themselves lawyers ahead of their day in court. Harper gets to it immediately, but Irene seems to brush off the advice. As days go by, John notices she’s yet to seek counsel.
Will her avoiding the issue see things go very wrong for her in court?
