Walford enters a week where No one is safe anymore. The consequences of Harry and Nicola’s revenge plan don’t stop at one night of terror; they begin to spread, drawing in police involvement, guilt, and irreparable damage. In next week’s EastEnders, Ravi Gulati wakes up to face the worst: What happened when he lost control of himself..

Ravi Gulati and the moment of awakening from terror.

Ravi woke up in the middle of the street, his mind blank and his memories fragmented. When he got home, he charged his phone—and that very moment shattered all illusions of safety. Text messages, calls, suspicious silence… all hinted at a terrible truth: in his drug-induced delirium, Ravi had caused serious harm to another person.

Priya and her irrevocable confession.

Ravi confronts Priya, forced to confess his role in his loved one’s injury. The truth leaves Priya speechless. The horror isn’t in what Ravi says, but in his uncertainty about what he might do next. When police approach Priya for questioning, the fear escalates. It’s no longer a family secret—this is a legal matter.

Police get involved: Will Ravi get away with it?
After speaking with Priya, the police requested to question Ravi. The pressure mounted. Seemingly simple questions became traps. Ravi understood that every word he spoke could ruin his future. But with his memories still hazy and guilt hanging over him, could Ravi “speak the truth” to save himself?

Max Branning and his familiar slip-up caused his children to turn their backs on him.
While Ravi faces legal trouble, Max repeats his old mistakes. Bea’s apparent affection for Max complicates matters. When Linda asks Max to take Bea along to help look after Ollie, Max inadvertently exaggerates the significance of the outing—leading to a painful misunderstanding.

Worse still, Max forgot his most important promise: to attend Abi’s memorial service with Lauren and Oscar. Arriving late, he faced Lauren’s wrath. She demanded he leave. Max left behind a prepared speech, hoping his children would read it for him—but could a few pages mend broken trust?

Oscar and Lauren: the final straw

This wasn’t just one broken promise. For Oscar and Lauren, it was proof that Max was still putting himself first. Again. Patience was running out. Max was on the sidelines of his own children’s lives—a familiar position, but one that was becoming increasingly difficult to return to.

Jasmine and the fragile attempt at reconciliation.

In another storyline, Jasmine tries to build a connection with her family. Patrick, burdened by guilt, is advised by Yolande to open up and invite Jasmine over. When the family is allowed to visit Anthony at the funeral home, emotions run high. But Jasmine’s vulnerability makes it easy for things to spiral out of control.

Lily explodes with fear of exposure.
When Jasmine agreed to babysit Charli for Lily, a serious mishap occurred. The monitor malfunctioned. The baby was left alone. Lily returned and panicked to find Charli sobbing. Lily’s anger wasn’t directed at the action, but at the bigger question:Is Jasmine really safe being near this family?

Patrick invites Jasmine to stay at the Trueman house, but at the same time expresses concern to Yolande about her violent tendencies. Denise then invites Jasmine and her family to visit Anthony—a rare opportunity for reconciliation. But when Oscar tries to talk to her, Jasmine starts to spiral downward again.

Chelsea’s slip of the tongue and the dangerous truth.
The next morning, Jasmine showed up drunk. As Yolande tried to sober her up, Chelsea joined the conversation—and inadvertently revealed a truth that shouldn’t have been said: Anthony wasn’t as perfect as everyone thought. That slip of the tongue could ignite a reaction that no one could control.

Walford is entering a phase whereEvery action has a price.And the past can no longer remain dormant.

When the police knock on the door and the truth begins to surface, who will be the first to be unable to bear the consequences?
