If there’s one thing Summer Bay loves, it’s a shock death.

Home and Away fans are already speculating what trauma the soap has in store for us for the big season finale, as the 2024 season looms to an end. Given this year already we’ve suffered numerous losses, lows, and some highs, it’s safe to say the dramatic feature-length finale scenes will be doing the most to leave viewers stressing out until the show returns in 2025.

Last year’s dramatic finale saw Eden go missing while camping with Cash, Remi suffering a serious motorbike accident and being presumed dead, and both Eden and Remi being held hostage. Spoiler, the two recovered from their various ordeals, and are back in the drama for the impending 2024 finale, with the show teasing someone will be left with “blood on their hands”.

The finale will see Lyrik members Remi, Eden, Kirby, and Theo head off to a luxury estate to rehearse (how they afforded that when none of them barely work is another question), with Justin, Bree, and Eden’s new boyfriend Tim also joining the crew.

While Eden has tried to move on with Tim after being brutally dumped by Cash, life hasn’t been that easy given the man who dumped her has been lowkey stalking Tim to dig up dirt on him in a bid to “protect” Eden. Just what you want your ex-fiancé who’s also a cop to be doing.

BUT the million dollar question is — given last week Cash dug up that Tim allegedly used to date one of his clients — is Cash right about Tim and is he a shady character surrounded by shady people?

The show is teasing the ultimate confrontation between Cash and Tim, and it could all end in disaster.

If there’s one thing to know about Home and Away fans, it’s that they think they’ve seen this film before and they think they know the ending…

In other words, they’re cluey viewers and already have theories about what could happen in the finale. “My prediction is that Tim will end up dead,” one fan speculated. “Cash will be Number 1 suspect, but it’s in fact the girl who Cash had called last week, Tim’s previous patient who allegedly claimed they had a relationship, that ends up killing him.”

In last week’s episode, Cash contacted a woman named Nerida who claimed she had an affair with Tim, a psychologist, while she was a patient.

“Nerida is turning stalker, maybe she’s a River Girl [there] to pay Cash back,” another fan said.

Other fans weren’t happy to see Eden and Cash at the centre of attention again. “Have you noticed for the last three years’ season finales, it’s involved Eden and Cash?” one person pointed out. “I’m a little over it.”

“Another death .. that makes 4 this year doesn’t it,” someone else complained. “Won’t be watching again. I’m so sick of the repetitive storylines.”

But wait! There’s more.

As reported by TV Week, back in the Bay, Tane and Harper will be faced with a tough decision ahead of the impending birth of their first child together. The season finale will see Harper rushed to hospital, with the soon-to-be-mum finding out that her unborn baby has a cyst on their lungs that could cause foetal heart failure.

Harper is told an in-utero surgery is the only fix for the issue, but it could cause her to go into labour prematurely, with Harper determined to not do anything that will put her baby’s life at risk, while Tane and Dana worry about the future of both Harper and the baby.
