Felix breaks JJ’s heart!
AS THEY MEET, THE PRISONER CUTS ALL TIES…
JJ’s been waiting his entire life to come face to face with his biological dad, and that day finally arrives this week, when banged-up Felix agrees to let him visit!
However, this is no happy reunion – JJ’s dad rejects him outright, coldly dismissing any future contact. Will this brutal encounter help the teen close this chapter of his life?
“JJ is completely crushed by Felix’s snub,” sighs our Neighbours gossip. “On the street, Felix was his friend and mentor. JJ hoped they could now bond as father and son, but his locked-up dad wants nothing to do with him…”
Since JJ discovered his mums ordered Felix to cease all contact, the troubled lad has been acting out at home and shunning his family. Desperate to fix the frosty atmosphere at home, his mums debate letting the teen visit Felix inside, to witness for himself that he’d be a dead-beat dad…
Meanwhile, Andrew receives a visit request from the man in question, as poorly Felix gets in touch. While the cop mulls over the decision to visit his convicted brother, nosy Nell overhears his conversation with Wendy and reports back to JJ, urging him to tag along to the prison. But when the schoolboy begs Andrew to take him to see his father
– will he agree?
The next day, at the prison, Felix is grateful to see his brother, explaining that his illness has made him reassess life. Guarded Andrew wants Felix to prove it, and pushes his criminal brother to do the right thing and speak to JJ…
“Felix sets hopeful JJ straight in the cruellest way!” reveals our spy. “He admits he would have cut contact with JJ regardless of his mums’ request, because he’s not interested in having a teenage friend – or a son!”
The scales fall from JJ’s eyes – and he’s devastated
JJ’s locked-up dad wants nothing to do with him…”
that having finally found his father, Felix has disowned him.
Afterwards, Andrew thanks Felix for his good deed, but reiterates that he wants nothing more to do with him.
As the Varga-Murphys reel in shock that Andrew took JJ to see Felix without their permission first, they comfort their heartbroken son, grateful that this closes a difficult chapter in their lives.
But how will JJ cope? And is this the last we’ll see of Felix?
