Currently, we’re nervously awaiting next week’s dramatic run of Home and Away episodes, with Cash and Eden set to get married, only for a fan favourite to also meet their untimely end.
With the show teasing a car crash next week after the wedding, fans have already figured out who the likely poor victim is, with Theo’s days looking numbered.
But fans are also speculating this isn’t any old car crash, and that Theo might end up being the unlucky wrong target from someone who was trying to keep Lacey (his girlfriend) quiet.
Here’s the TL:DR.

Here’s what Home and Away fans think what will happen to Theo
For those catching up, Theo is dating Lacey. Lacey’s dad is David, the newish cop in the Bay, who is obsessed with investigating what happened to his wife, who died in a car crash. Lacey’s sister Jo was in the car with their mum at the time, and couldn’t remember the full circumstances until recently, when she underwent hypnotherapy and then remembered there was another car involved.
Her hypnotherapy session was so good she recalled flashes of a grey Mercedes coming to them on the wrong side of the road and even remembered a partial number plate. David, doing his detective work, soon discovered a potential driver Craig Wendell who is a local councillor in their previous hometown. Councillor Wendell had sold his grey Mercedes only days after Jo and her mum’s accident. Suspicious!

Now, with all that in mind, fans are speculating that the dubious councillor knows more than what he’s letting on and may go to desperate measures to stop David and his family from finding out what really happened.
This is where Home and Away fans think things go wrong for Theo.
“So here are my thoughts. Lacey starts her own investigation into her mother’s death, the councillor panics and tries to stop Lacey and that is how Theo dies in the car crash. The councillor kills Theo instead of Lacey” one person wrote.
“Think the bloke with the beard had it in for David. It might have been meant for David,” someone else speculated, with another fan saying, “I think Lacey’s interference will somehow have something to do with Theo’s accident.”
“Yep, Lacey [will be] harassing the councillor and he probably runs the car off the road to shut them up,” someone else speculated.
Poor Theo.

When will Theo die on Home and Away?
All signs are pointing towards next week’s episodes. On Wednesday, Oct 1, as the wedding between Cash and Eden wraps up, the promo line for the episode says, “Lacey plots a sting.”
Thursday, Oct 2, the show hints at Theo’s final appearances, with the promo line reading: “Tragedy rocks Summer Bay. Bree is the bearer of bad news.”
