Episode synopsis
Dean goes shopping for his "Dean-mobile" but with family finances in the red, his parents can't afford to chip in as promised. When Neville tells Dean about the debt to Daniel Blake, Dean gives his mother his car money to cover that month's loan repayment. Belinda and Marty are both excited to be short-listed for Daniel's bursary. Coral confronts Daniel accusing him of using the scholarship as an excuse to get to know Belinda. He readily admits that is exactly what he's doing since Coral won't let him tell Belinda he's her father. Edwina calls out Zac for his patronising attitude toward her well-paying modelling career. Tempted by the offer of quick money, Zac agrees to another shady job.
About Echo Point
Echo Point was an Australian television soap opera produced by Southern Star Group for Network Ten on 1 June 1995 until 1 December 1995. The series was devised as an attempt by the Ten Network to rival the opposition soap Home and Away on the Seven Network. The series focused on several families and teenagers in a coastal community, and a key on-going storyline concerned renewed interest in a long-unsolved local murder mystery. Echo Point originally aired at 7:00pm weeknights to low ratings and the series was cancelled after a little over 100 episodes had been produced. The final episodes were aired in a late night 11.30pm slot. The only purchaser of the series in the UK was Central Television, the only member of the ITV network to screen it. Central screened the series at 1315-1345 in the summer of 1998 following the conclusion of A Country Practice. TV3 in New Zealand picked up the series for just a few weeks in 1996 but then later cancelled, the show featured former Shortland Street actor Martin Henderson.
