Once the morning rush is over, Melanie and Logan share stories from their travels around Australia.
Before long, Melanie starts to see Logan as a kindred spirit. When Logan mentions that he now wants to find somewhere to settle, Melanie quickly recommends Erinsborough as the perfect location.
Logan agrees to join Melanie when she heads back home following her trip, but there's a suspicious moment when he stares intensely at the image of David on the side of the van.
There's clearly more to Logan than he's letting on, but why is he so interested in the picture of David?

Aaron has been trying to rebuild his life following the tragic death of his husband David in February. He'll befriend Logan in the new storyline, unaware of his potential ulterior motive.
Logan's casting was announced in May, when Neighbours posted on social media: "We're very excited to welcome Matthew Backer to the cast.
"His character, Logan, will arrive in Erinsborough in the coming weeks, but what's his reason for showing up in town? And who does Logan have a mysterious connection to on Ramsay Street?"

Meanwhile, Neighbours' executive producer Jason Herbison recently told Digital Spy: "Melanie has a chance meeting with Logan during her travels and this becomes the catalyst for him to travel to Erinsborough.
"There's more to him than meets the eye and he hones in on Aaron, but it's not a conventional romantic storyline.
"Aaron certainly isn't in the market to meet anyone. The story takes some very unexpected turns, which I don't think the audience will see coming."
Neighbours airs these scenes on Monday, June 24.
Neighbours releases new episodes from Mondays to Thursdays for free on Amazon Freevee in the UK and US. In Australia, the show airs from Mondays to Thursdays at 4pm on Channel 10, with a 6.30pm repeat screening on 10 Peach Comedy.
