Flo has just started uni and is living in a share house just off campus. She takes over Arlo's room, who's sleeping in a swag in the backyard while he waits for Tori to finish moving into Brett's room. 4 Dale Street has had a revolving door for 6 years, and no-one really knows who's actually on the lease anymore.
