Home and Away spoilers: Mackenzie spirals and turns to alcohol
Dean (Patrick OConnor) has recently accepted an offer from his sister Mackenzie (Emily Weir) to work at Salt in order to meet his probation conditions. When he shows up for his first day, Mac tells him how he should greet customers as they enter and hands him a uniform. However, Dean tells him that is never going to happen and refuses to put on the uniform. Mac is unhappy, but Dean sticks to his guns and she eventually gives in.
The battle continues when Dean happily goes behind the bar, but without his RSA (Responsible Service of Alcohol) certificate, Mackenzie instead hands him some cleaning equipment and sends him to wipe tables. When Justin (James Stewart) and Leah (Ada Nicodemou) show up for lunch, Dean has to swallow his pride to greet them, and when Justin starts asking questions, he soon becomes irritated.
