She explains that a heavily pregnant Andrea returned to Erinsborough on the day of the vow renewal, and Willow persuaded her to stay away from the Rebecchis. Toadie and Sonya assume custody of Hugo in Andrea's absence, and eventually track her down to a psychiatric facility in Tasmania. Willow accompanies them to visit her mother, who believes she is Dee Bliss and does not remember either of her children. Months later, Willow returns to Erinsborough and finds that her grandmother, Heather Schilling (Kerry Armstrong), is posing as "Alice Wells", the Rebecchis' nanny. Willow tricks Heather into revealing she has poisoned Sonya and left her to die. She warns Toadie and they rescue Sonya in time.

However, Leo discovers this is a lie when he goes to meet up with Delaney's mystery contact and comes face-to-face with Mannix. He brings Mannix to Paul and Mannix explains that he called Delaney after Paul left him and he recovered in a nearby motel, before going to Indonesia. Mannix then admits to telling Delaney's father that it was Leo who went to the police about the money laundering. Mannix attempts to blackmail David by threatening to reveal that he stole medication from the hospital to help him, but David goes to the hospital board himself. After Paul tells him David went to the police, Mannix leaves town.

To get back at Paul, Mannix catfishes his friend Jane Harris and cons her out of her savings. Paul learns Mannix is behind the con and tells him to pay back the money, but Mannix tells him that he has already spent it on a car. When Paul says he will go to the police, Mannix threatens to publicly reveal the messages he and Jane exchanged and Paul realises he was planning on extorting more money from Jane. He tells Mannix to sell the car and start working for him, as he will make up the difference to pay Jane back. Jane later arranges to meet Mannix to understand why he conned her.

They get on well, but Mannix asks Mackenzie not to go in his room and he later puts a lock on the door.

Aaron's partner David Tanaka (Takaya Honda) contacts the hospital for more information and reveals that Russell's last words were Memory Cove, a place the family used to visit. Fay tells her sons that she is going back to Port Lincoln, before explaining to Sheila that she had an affair in Memory Cove and fell pregnant. Sheila realises that one of Russell's sons was not his and Fay begs her to keep it a secret. She then leaves town without saying goodbye. Fay returns when Sheila tells Mark, Aaron and Tyler the truth. Fay reveals that she had the affair while she and Russell were going through a rough patch in their marriage, so she knew the baby was not Russell's. She then tells Tyler he is not Russell's son and that his father's name is Hamish Roche (Sean Taylor). Fay apologises to Tyler, but he asks her to leave. At The Waterhole, Fay tells Sheila that without her, she might not have had the courage to tell Tyler the truth. Mark and Aaron tell her that it might take some time before Tyler can forgive her, and Fay returns to Adelaide. Fay later returns, at Mark's request. She sees Louise McLeod (Maria Theodorakis) at Erinsborough Hospital and recognises her as a nurse who cared for Russell in Port Lincoln. This leads Mark to deduce that Louise was in a relationship with Hamish and helped him murder Russell. Hamish is later killed, and while Tyler is awaiting trial for his murder, Fay claims she was the culprit, but her sons do not believe her confession. It is later revealed that she is innocent, as she spent the night of the murder with Bill Warley (Darren Mort).

Fay comes to Lassiters Hotel to visit her daughter Chloe Brennan (April Rose Pengilly), who has recently moved to Erinsborough. Fay walks in on Chloe kissing her boss Leo Tanaka (Tim Kano). Fay reveals that she has to sell her house, as she has been funding Chloe's lifestyle. Chloe vows to pay her mother back, while Fay says she will keep Chloe's relationship with Leo to herself. Fay and Sheila agree to look out for jobs for one another, but they fall out when Fay is offered Sheila's old job of managing The Waterhole. Chloe tells Fay that Sheila's son Gary Canning (Damien Richardson) is romantically interested in her, so she asks him out and he accepts. Following their date, Fay hears Gary telling Sheila that he is not interested in her. Sheila explains that she forced Gary into going on the date. When Fay hears that Tyler is struggling to cope in prison, she quits her job and returns to Adelaide. Fay returns to walk Aaron down the aisle during his wedding to David. Fays visits her children after Mark announces his engagement to Elly Conway (Jodi Anasta). She asks Chloe how she was able to pay her back in such large amounts, and Chloe explains that she went on dates with men in return for payment. She later tells Fay that she has Huntington's disease and that she suspects that Fay has it too. Fay admits that she has been having symptoms for a while and agrees to get tested. Fay's test comes back positive, and she decides to go to Bali to be with Tyler.

Fay returns to Erinsborough for Mark and Elly's wedding, where Elly reveals that she cheated on Mark with Chloe. When Chloe continues to talk about Elly, Fay slaps her as she is angry with Chloe's selfishness towards Mark. Fay tries to help Mark and Elly reconcile and she apologises to Chloe for slapping her. Fay tries giving Piper an update about Tyler, but Piper struggles to hear how he has moved on with his life when she is treading water. Mark tells Fay that Elly is pregnant and she encourages him to forgive Elly, before she returns to Adelaide. A few months later, Tyler calls his siblings to tell them Fay has gone missing. She soon turns up in Erinsborough and explains that she heard from Chloe that Mark was going through a hard time. Mark, Aaron and Chloe realise that Fay's Huntington's Disease is worse, and David later tells them that Fay's condition has progressed significantly. He suggests that she will need 24-hour supervision. The family go to Adelaide to come up with a plan for Fay, and Mark decides to move there to help Tyler and Piper take care of her. Months later, Mark calls Chloe to let her know that Fay almost choked on some food and needs to have a PEG tube fitted. Chloe goes to Adelaide to see her and, after talking it over with her husband Pierce Greyson (Tim Robards), invites Fay to stay with them for a while to give Mark and Tyler a break. Chloe and Pierce make the house more accessible, as Fay is now confined to a wheelchair, and they hire Nicolette Stone (Charlotte Chimes) to be her live-in nurse. Fay becomes fond of Nicolette, unaware of her ongoing feud with Pierce and her romantic feelings for Chloe. She is delighted when Chloe announces that she is pregnant. Pierce arranges for Fay to go on holiday with Aaron and David, and when she returns, she learns that Nicolette has got a new job. Fay arranges a baby shower for Chloe but she breaks down and reveals she has miscarried the baby. Fay decides to return to Adelaide; before she goes, she discovers that Nicolette has been causing a rift in Chloe and Pierce's marriage and urges her to stay away.

In the months that follow, Chloe separates from Pierce after Nicolette exposes his infidelity with Dipi Rebecchi (Sharon Johal). Chloe ends her friendship with Nicolette over her role in exposing Pierce's affair, but things are complicated when Nicolette becomes a surrogate for Aaron and David. When Fay visits Erinsborough, she mistakes the tension between Chloe and Nicolette for attraction, and continues to bond with Nicolette over her future grandchild. Aware of Nicolette's manipulative past, Toadie Rebecchi (Ryan Moloney) is suspicious when Fay changes her will to include Nicolette and raises it with the Brennans. Nicolette then confesses her past misdeeds, but Fay forgives her and insists she is part of their family. With her health deteriorating quickly, Fay pursues completing a bucket list, which includes trying Gary's famous chocolates one more time. She accidentally consumes a piece of chocolate which leads to an infection in her lungs. This becomes pneumonia and she is told she has days to live. She initially hides her diagnosis but confesses as her health worsens. She dies peacefully surrounded by Chloe, Aaron, David and Nicolette. Her body is flown to Adelaide for her funeral.
