In an upcoming episode of *Home and Away*, Salt has never been more chaotic, with tensions

between Cash Newman and Mackenzie Booth reaching a breaking point. Xander Delaney

finds himself caught in the middle of the escalating conflict. With Felicity gone,

Cash has taken over her role as co-owner of Salt, determined to preserve his late sister’s legacy. However, there’s a big issue—Cash has no experience running a restaurant, and every time he tries to take charge, it leads to a near disaster. Mackenzie’s patience is wearing thin, and she’s had enough of Cash’s mismanagement.

Finally, Mackenzie can’t take it anymore. She storms out of Salt, leaving Xander to handle the chaos. As Cash continues to interfere, Xander starts thinking about how to fix the situation. He comes up with a bold and risky idea—what if he buys Cash out of the business and becomes Mackenzie’s partner? It could be the solution they need, but convincing Cash won’t be easy, especially since he’s vowed never to walk away from Felicity’s memory.

Before Xander can present his plan, the atmosphere at Salt becomes even more charged. Cash’s ex-fiancée, Eden, arrives for her shift, and the unresolved emotions between her and Cash add fuel to the fire. The question is, can they work together without reopening old wounds, or is this emotional powder keg about to explode?

As the tension mounts, Xander must decide whether he’s ready to step up with his game-changing offer, or risk watching Salt fall apart under the weight of Cash and Mackenzie’s feud.
