Wracked with guilt, Toadie completely avoids Melanie's attempts to talk about what happened. Undeterred, Melanie is over the moon about the turn of events and, despite Holly's warnings, submits a last-minute entry for the Longest Lie-In, hoping to stay in Toadie's orbit.

Toadie continues to ignore Melanie's pleas to talk, despite their beds being right next to each other. Instead, his guilt manifests as extra attention towards Terese, to the point where Melanie can't take it anymore. She quits the competition and leaves, heartbroken, followed by a concerned Holly, who reminds her of her previous warning.

Devastated, Melanie tells Holly the only reason she entered the contest was to be near Toadie because something happened between them.

Meanwhile, Krista is nervous but excited as she prepares to launch Lassiters' Longest Lie-In. She reassures Paul that everything is in place, unaware that Chelsea has plans to disrupt things by changing the roster, so the event is understaffed.

Thinking on her feet, Krista hands out walkie-talkies to make sure the staff she does have work as efficiently as possible.

The competition begins and so does the friendly rivalry, with Cara and Remi doing their best to psych out Haz and Mackenzie, while Byron flirts with Sadie as he serves her, much to Nicolette's bemusement.

Vera proves to be her usual overbearing self, until Holly orchestrates her early demise from the contest and most people survive the first night.
