While Mark and Elly were on their romantic walk, Susan has returned home to talk to Liz about her recent behaviour.

"Oh here she is saint Susan" Liz sarcastically said as she sat at the dining table with a large glass of red wine.

"What made you think you had the right to read Elly's private card?" Susan asked.

"She's my daughter I can do what I like...I think you forget that sometimes" Liz replied.

"Forget what? That she's a grown up and not a teenager anymore".

"No! That she is my daughter and not yours".

"Right now she wishes I was her mum and not you! What made you think that interfering would be a good idea? Does that brain of yours not work anymore?"

"I doubt she does... I'm still her mum and always will be".

"Liz she wants nothing to do with you. She's asked me to ask you to leave..."

"I don't believe you! Why would she want her mother to leave. This is you just trying to get rid of me so you can look after my daughters as if they were your own".

"She wants you to leave because you always stick your nose in places it's not welcome. Chloe poured her heart out to Elly, something that will have taken a lot of courage and you just blew it straight back in her face. Elly wants you gone and I'm going to make sure that happens, so please pack your bags" Susan said with authority.

"Well I'm not going anywhere!" Liz replied crossing her arms in annoyance.

"You aren't welcome here! So pack your bags and leave. I don't care where you go but you are not staying here, not while you are still interfering in Elly's life".

"Oh come on Suz, you can't kick me out" Liz replied.

"I can and I am" Susan said.

"Fine but I'm not leaving Erinsborough".

"Do what you like but I'm telling you now, Elly wants nothing to do with you".

"We'll see about that..." Liz said with arrogance.

"Good luck with that" Susan replied with a smug look on her face.

Liz headed to her room to pack her bag, she couldn't believe that she was being kicked out when all she was trying to do was look after the needs of her eldest daughter. She couldn't understand what the big deal was.

As Elly and Mark arrived back from their walk, they noticed Liz leaving the Kennedy's with all of her things.

"Where's your mum going?" Mark asked.

"Home hopefully" Elly replied hurrying Mark up so that Liz didn't see them.

"What's happened?" Mark asked.

"I'll tell you in a minute but can we just go inside so that she doesn't see us..." Elly replied.

"Ok, ok let's go then!"

But they weren't quick enough, Liz spotted the two of them, dropped her bags and ran after them.

"Elly wait... ELLY" Liz shouted as she got closer.

The two of them ignored her.

"I know you can hear me..."

"What? I have nothing to say to you!" Elly shouted.

"Please come on..."

"Mark go on inside I'll be in in a minute" Elly said trying to get rid of Mark just in case Liz let anything slip.
