Home and Away fans question plot hole in dramatic episode: 'Big mistake'

If you're up to date on Home and Away you know those naughty River Boys have been up to no good again, and this time they look like they're about to take down Mali Hudson (Kyle Schilling) with them and fans aren't too happy about it.

The long story short is that a Mangrove River cop was murdered, the River Boys are involved, Mali had a previous interaction with da boiz when they helped him out of a spot of bother, and now he's had to repay the favour but wound up with a bag that has the murder weapon, a bloody shirt, and the ID of the slain police officer.

Mali ended up back in the River Boys' lair to dump the bag back with them, but unfortunately for him, that's right when the cops showed up so he looks like he's been caught red-handed with the notorious gang.

Home and Away fans question plot-hole in dramatic episode: 'Big mistake'

Home and Away fans, while gripped by the drama, have one burning question for Mali: Although he was absolutely caught in the wrong place at the wrong time, WHY was he silly enough to literally touch EVERY SINGLE THING in that murder bag?!

"Why did Mali touch the things in the bag, his fingerprints on all over the things?!" one person questioned. "Ah Mali you shouldn’t have gotten involved," another sad fan said.

"Mali walking into the lion's den, he shouldn’t have opened the bag, big mistake," another commented.

Others were shocked Mali didn't try to protest his innocence after the police stormed through. "Mali needs to be more honest about how he came to be involved instead of being misguidedly loyal and secretive," one fan said. "He's like two different people."

"I agree... he doesn't even declare his innocence. Just stands there glaring like the rest of them..looking guilty AF," another person agreed.

A few other fans pointed out some logistical plotholes in the storyline. "How did Mali know where to go to drop the bag off? Not like they are mates," one person queried.

"Correct me wrong but doesn't this get handed to Homicide now as they have a strong suspect?" another asked. "Of course not, no logic in Summer Bay," a person joked in response.
