Neighbours spoilers follow.
Neighbours‘ Leo Tanaka will prepare to make his exit in sad scenes set to air next week.
Currently the police suspect Leo for the murder of Sebastian Metcalfe, although it’s unclear whether he was actually responsible.
In scenes set to across the Tuesday, April 8, Wednesday, April 9 and Thursday, April 10 episodes, a court date is set for two months’ time and Byron is appointed as a volunteer assistant for Leo’s legal team.
Leo keeps estranged wife Krista at arm’s length after she cheated on him with Sebastian, and he tells her that she doesn’t need to be there for a meeting with a barrister. She’s left feeling disappointed.
Due to all the rumours about Leo, he starts to see bookings at his vineyard business Yorokobi cancelled. He asks Byron to become the face of the business and deal with Yorokobi matters.
Later on, Leo and Krista sit down and have a tough but honest conversation about their relationship, and he admits that with the threat of prison looming, he’s unsure about his — and their — future.
Krista insists that she will stick by him whatever happens, and asks him for time to work on their relationship.
Leo then tells his family that they should prepare for the possibility of him going to jail, and Rafe tells him that prosecutor assigned to his case is notoriously tough, leaving him feeling pessimistic about the outcome.
Will Leo be able to find a way out of this situation, or will he end up imprisoned?
