Xander Delaney (played by Luke Van Os) is ready to spread his wings and fly away from Summer Bay on Home and Away! (1:45pm - see our TV Guide for listings)
But where does that leave Xander's girlfriend, Dana Matheson (Ally Harris)?
For some time ex-paramedic turned Salt barman Xander has been looking for a NEW life opportunity.
On today's episode of the Aussie soap, Xander's boss Mackenzie Booth (Emily Weir) has both good and BAD news for him.
On the plus side, an opening has just come-up on a business internship program run by one of Mackenzie's friends at a hotel.
The bad news is that the hotel is in Melbourne and Xander will need to leave town straight away to join the six-week course!
Xander is conflicted.
This could be the BIG opportunity he has been waiting for.
But it will mean being parted from girlfriend Dana.
Dana is down-in-the-dumps at the thought of Xander going away.
But she doesn't want to be the one to stand in the way of her boyfriend advancing his career.
However, when the morning comes for Xander to leave, can Dana face saying goodbye to him?
