Home and Away is set to deliver one of its most dramatic weeks yet, as Levi Fowler reaches his emotional limit and is arrested after a shocking incident at work. The upcoming episodes will see Levi struggle with grief, anger and guilt following Mackenzie Booth’s miscarriage and sudden disappearance, leading to a devastating breaking point.

Levi struggles after Mackenzie leaves Summer Bay

Levi and Mackenzie had recently been filled with hope after a second round of IVF was finally successful. However, tragedy struck when Mackenzie suffered a heartbreaking miscarriage only days later. Unable to face the pain, Mackenzie decided to leave Summer Bay and travel to Queensland to stay with her brother Dean.

Levi reluctantly agreed to give her space, but the silence has taken a heavy emotional toll. With Mackenzie refusing phone calls and shutting out not only Levi but also family, his sense of helplessness deepens.

Returning to work only makes things worse

In an attempt to regain control of his life, Levi returns to work at the hospital. However, he soon proves he is nowhere near ready. Bri discusses her campaign for increased hospital security and personal alarms, but Levi’s distant reaction makes it clear that his mind is elsewhere. He eventually admits the truth — Mackenzie miscarried and left town without speaking to him.

Bri shows support and takes Levi to dinner, where he finally voices his greatest fear: Mackenzie may never return.

A violent confrontation changes everything

The following day, Levi’s emotions finally spill over. After leaving a frustrated voicemail for Mackenzie, he finds himself involved in a tense situation with a patient named Lars, who was brought in after a road rage incident.

When Levi later witnesses Lars aggressively pushing Bri, something inside him snaps.

💥 Levi punches Lars, knocking him to the ground in front of stunned staff.

Although Levi immediately apologizes, the damage is done. Bri is furious, knowing that his actions undermine everything she has been fighting for to improve hospital safety procedures.

Levi is arrested as consequences catch up with him

Bri warns that Levi could be suspended or even lose his career — and her fears quickly become reality. Cash arrives at the hospital not for support, but to arrest Levi over the assault.

At the station, Levi doesn’t fight the charges. Instead, he finally admits responsibility and acknowledges that Mackenzie’s departure pushed him beyond his limits. Eden arrives just in time to see Levi’s mugshot being taken, devastated by how far her brother has fallen.

Will Mackenzie return after Levi’s arrest?

Eden ultimately makes a difficult decision — she calls Mackenzie to tell her what has happened. Whether Mackenzie will return to Summer Bay remains uncertain, but Levi’s breakdown may finally force her to face the situation she ran from.

What happens next on Home and Away?

The storyline now raises major questions for fans:

• Will Levi lose his career?
• Will Mackenzie come home?
• Can their relationship survive the trauma?
• Is this Levi’s point of no return?

One thing is clear — Levi’s arrest marks a dramatic turning point for several key characters in Home and Away, and the emotional fallout is only just beginning.
