Despite a worrying period in the hospital, Nicolette eventually wakes up to the relief of her family and friends.
Jane is still angry that her daughter was injured in the first place, and begins to blame Curtis Perkins (Nathan Borg) and Susan Kennedy (Jackie Woodburne), arguing that they should have listened to her when she shared concerns over the power tools being stored at The Hive.
There is added tension with the power tools, considering they're part of Curtis' off-site vocational project for Erinsborough High's Year 13 students, which Jane was originally very strongly opposed to.
This conflict puts the future of the Year 13 program in doubt.
