The GODS of Wheat Street

Odin Freeburn remembers the promise he made to his dying mother to look after his three younger siblings Ares, Tristan and baby Isolde. Now, 20 years later, they are pulling him in all directions and the mechanics workshop that keeps them housed and fed is up for sale.

Ares Freeburn is too busy fighting in jail to notice the McIntyre brothers being nosey about the fate of the mechanics workshop. Rival mechanic Harry Hamilton is also interested - he has plans to turn it into a car wash. But Odin finds that getting a bank loan to buy the place is not so easy - the price is $300 000 and they need a guarantor.

The auction is today but Jonesy has charged Odin with assault and he is locked up when he should be sorting the loan. Anastasia tells Tristan she can't see him anymore. Her father beat up her mother Petra for letting her date a Freeburn. Tristan knows Ares is involved and goes to confront him, when he should be at court testifying that Jonesy was the aggressor.

Libby is sick of being unappreciated and lets the Freeburns fend for themselves until Athena turns up on her doorstep looking for her school uniform. When Libby confronts Odin he takes her by surprise and finally kisses her. She melts. Tristan tries to get back with Anastasia but when he blurts out that Ares had an affair with her mother she accuses him of being a liar.

Fables and Bucky find Odin unconscious and take him to the hospital. Libby is informed by the police and tries to keep it together for the girls. But the pressure is on from the bank - they are late to make the first repayment and their home and workshop could be repossessed. As she watches Odin fighting for his life in hospital Libby decides it is up to her to take care of the business.

Libby takes Odin home. Everyone is relieved to have him back, but they have to tell him the business is in trouble despite Libby's efforts. Then Jamie arrives out of nowhere looking a million dollars and all Libby's insecurities return.
