Maggie's Fate
In 2000 (Season 7 episode "One More Day"), Maggie, aided by P.J. and her brother Mick, arrive at the point of cracking the ring that killed Robbie.
When this was done, Maggie realised that she would have to go into Witness Protection and staged a break up with P.J. and announced she would be leaving Mount Thomas to take up a job in Melbourne. She then nervously waited for her escort. P.J. realised that she had been tricked and arrived to see Maggie shot dead in a shower of bullets. P.J. was arrested for her murder and sought desperately to prove he had been framed.
In Episode 10 of Season 7 "Out Of The Shadows" it is revealed that Maggie's killer is her brother Mick. Her father Pat ended up shooting Mick before P.J. had a chance to arrest him. After Pat Doyle was arrested, P.J. and he sprinkled Maggie's ashes.
Maggie's death and the episodes that followed are some of the most watched moments in Australian television history.

Famous quotes containing the word fate:
“For when we must resign our vital breath,
Our Loves by Fate benighted,
We by this friendship shall survive in death,
Even in divorce united.
Weak Love through fortune or distrust
In time forgets to burn,
But this pursues us to the Urn,
And marries either’s Dust.”
—Thomas Stanley (1625–1678)
