Next week on Home and Away in the UK, what should have been a career-defining moment for Kirby turns into a race against time as producer Remi vanishes just hours before her big album launch — and what’s discovered at the share house sends the bay into panic mode.
Kirby’s dream of a solo music career has been months in the making. With the support of her friend and producer Remi, she’s poured her heart into an album that marks a new chapter following Lyrik’s disbandment. But behind the scenes, things have been spiraling. Under immense pressure to complete not one, but two albums — one for Kirby and another for rising pop star Avalon Bracken — Remi has pushed himself beyond the limit.
Viewers have watched as Remi’s sleepless nights and mounting stress have begun to take a serious toll. Despite promising Kirby that her project was still the priority, his secret stash of stimulants — gifted by Avalon — hinted at just how close to breaking point he really was. When Kirby made the kind decision to delay a duet with Avalon to ease the pressure, Remi didn’t respond with gratitude. Instead, he lashed out, revealing just how volatile and exhausted he’d become.
With only days to go before the launch, Remi checked himself into a hotel to finish the album in peace. But when the morning of the event arrives, Bree notices something worrying: Remi’s bed hasn’t been slept in. His phone is off. No one has seen him. And the clock is ticking.
Justin, in full event manager mode, scrambles to keep the launch on track. The red carpet is rolled out, fans begin to gather, and Kirby arrives to flashing cameras and high expectations. But backstage, panic is setting in. Where is Remi? And more importantly — is the album even finished?
Back at the share house, Sonny is dispatched to track him down. Letting himself in, he heads to Remi’s room and finds him unresponsive on the bed. An empty sachet of white powder lies ominously nearby. Sonny’s concern quickly turns to fear: Remi is breathing, but barely responsive. With the show already underway, he must act fast.
Meanwhile, Kirby — blissfully unaware of the drama unfolding — takes to the stage. It’s the performance of her life. But Bree and Justin can’t hide their anxiety as they await word from Sonny. Has Remi simply overworked himself… or has the pressure pushed him too far?
This gripping storyline will dominate the week, with long-term consequences for both Remi’s health and his relationship with those closest to him. As Bree’s suspicions grow and Kirby prepares for fallout, viewers will be left wondering: can Remi recover — physically and emotionally — from the crash that’s coming?
And when the truth about the stimulants finally comes to light, will Kirby ever be able to trust him again? Or has this last-minute meltdown cost them both everything they’ve worked so hard to build?
