Tuesday is born in November 1995 as the daughter of Guy Warner (Craig Parker) and Carmen Roberts (Theresa Healey). She was a months old when Carmen died of a brain aneurysm and it was not long before Tuesday was discovered to have a tumor in her brain. Chris (Michael Galvin) pointed out he could remove it if she were in the United States and with that the Warner's left Ferndale.
Tuesday and her father return in May 2007. Tuesday is now 14 and having grown up with no mother, is extremely independent and like a manager to Guy. Chris discovers she is covering his drug addiction by claiming the drugs are her prescribed pills. After Chris cheats on wife Toni (Laura Hill), Guy takes her, Tuesday and Harry Warner (Henry Williams) and runs away.
Tuesday returns in December 2007 and reveals Guy has gone off the tracks with his drug addiction. She leads Chris to their hideout, causing Guy to try to escape, again taking Toni, Tuesday and Harry in his car. He loses control and causes a crash, though no one dies.
In 2008 Tuesday and Guy decide to stay in Ferndale so Guy can attend rehab. Tuesday starts Ferndale High School and makes friends with Sophie McKay (Kimberley Crossman), Tane Samuels (Dominic Ona-Ariki), Angus Phelps (Elliot Christensen-Yule) and Wiremu Potae (Scott Cotter). She develops a crush on Wiremu and goes out of her comfort zone trying to impress him. Guy decides to leave Ferndale and offers Tuesday to be adopted by Chris. Tuesday initially accepts, but soon decides to leave with her father. The two depart in April.
