Murder
Toby arrived at Melanie Hart's house and stuck close to his girlfriend at first, as the party started he mostly kept to himself and listened as the others interacted. When Zach McKay's abuse towards Annie Ross was revealed, he supported his girlfriend's decision to confront him but worried for the two girl's safety when Zach threatened them while leaving.

He was later exposed to the buzzing signal by Audrey Harper. After she decided to leave, he and Melanie headed to bed together.

The following day, Toby and Melanie were seen sitting together and enjoying the time spent with their friends. After Annie and Elle Parkes returned to the house, frantically explaining that a man with a knife was watching them, he questioned the girl's story, insisting that they made no sense. After a few moments, he decided to call the police. Zach's body came crashing through a window, distracting him from the 911-call, while the group panicked, he again attempted to calm them down. Soon after this, Toby saw the Killer - Arthur Clyde - murder an approaching police officer and then attempt to throw a hook into the house to catch Melanie, he ran forward and shoved his girlfriend out of the way, being grabbed instead. Arthur pulled him outside and gutted him with the hook.
