As viewers are aware, the cop was in charge of a clandestine operation to put the bikies—especially Tex Wheeler (Lucas Linehan)—in prison, where they belong.
After Jasmine (Sam Frost) left, Cash joined the operation to keep himself busy. However, when he went with Rose to the bikie headquarters to make arrests, disaster struck when Marty, the second-in-command, shot Cash.
Rose was appalled by what happened and felt guilty afterwards, thinking that she was at fault.
Speaking on the circumstances preceding up to and surrounding Cash’s potentially fatal injury, actor Kirsty Marillier said to Metro.co.uk, “I believe Rose is really in the wars at the moment.”
She begins to actually experience many of her sentiments; emotions like shame, remorse, and failure that she may have previously suppressed come to the surface.
“Everything that conflicts with her feeling of duty as a police officer.” She believes that as a police officer, both she and Cash have failed. It’s challenging because I want the audience to realize that she isn’t really at fault.
In order for this one major event to happen, a number of other events must have taken place. Rose does draw an emotional connection—rather than a logical one—between herself and Cash being killed.
After a long period of being close to death, Cash eventually came to, much to Rose’s relief.
However, the policeman found it difficult to accept that Marty had passed away during the gunfight, which ultimately puts pressure on Rose to try to assist him in getting better considering that she was present when the shooting occurred.
In upcoming scenes, Rose will defy convention on Felicity’s (Jacqui Purvis) advise when she gives Cash the police report of the incident in try to calm his fears.
Kirsty remarked, “I think Cash’s response is a little convoluted and puzzling. ‘ It’s not as cut and dry as Rose would have believed. Although Rose is relieved—”Thank God he acted in self defense”—Cash finds it extremely difficult to comprehend everything that has happened.
As fans are aware, Rose has been harboring affections for Cash. However, Kirsty believes that in the future, her character will be able to “put to bed” those thoughts in order to move on.
She explained to us that “over time [Cash and Rose] really really developed a good foundation for a friendship.” They respect each other so much as police officers, and she has a special regard for him because he is a senior constable.
They are aware of what it takes to be a police officer in the Bay. I can’t talk to anyone else in the Bay about my daily life. They both seem to share a mutual respect for one another, a sense of responsibility and solidarity, and friendship.
Right now, I believe Rose has dealt with and put to rest her love for him. He is someone she respects and loves very much, in her opinion.
You can be sure that things won’t be calming down any time soon because Kirsty has hinted that there will be more “huge drama” to come. Home and Away has been on fire lately, with one riveting storyline after another keeping viewers fascinated on a regular basis.
