After finally getting on the straight and narrow, Abigail is dealt a horrible blow that sends her ricocheting back into darkness in Home And Away this week.
In whatโs meant to be a joyous day for Abigail (Hailey Pinto) โ sheโs finally going on her first date with Theo (Matt Evans) โ her butterflies are soon squashed when she learns that Justin (James Stewart) has got to him first.

Taking Leahโs (Ada Nicodemou) nephew aside, he warns him against dating Abigail because of her chequered past with drugs.
Upon learning of Justinโs interference, and Theo subsequently cancelling their date, Abigail is sent spiralling and goes searching for her older brother Levi (Tristan Gorey) at the hospital.
However, in place of Levi, Abigail instead finds an opened cupboard full of morphine.

โItโs less logical and more of a survival instinct,โ Hailey tells TV WEEK of whatโs going through her characterโs head when she spots the vials of the opiate, adding: โAll she can focus on is the pain sheโs feeling and needing to relieve it.
โSheโs realising that sheโll never escape her past, sheโll always be judged. That painful realisation drives this unrelenting need for relief, so when she spots the vials of morphine, she sees a way out.โ

Noticing Abigail struggling down the corridor, nurse Dana (Ally Harris) rushes to her aid and phones Levi to come in immediately.
Can Levi talk Abigail off the ledge this time or is it too late for any sort of redemption for his troubled sister?
Home And Away airs Monday to Thursday at 7pm on Channel Seven
