Jasmine And Cindy Clash
Another chaotic week in Walford is on the horizon, as the EastEnders grapple with the repercussions of the enigmatic Jasmine’s cunning actions. While Cindy delves into her history, Jasmine retaliates, leading to a significant incident.
It was inevitable that Cindy would sense something unusual about the newcomer Jasmine, and next week she recruits Lauren to assist her in uncovering the truth.
With Jasmine’s phone left unattended, they manage to obtain her mother’s (uncredited) phone number. Cindy takes the initiative to meet with Jasmine’s mother.
Jasmine’s Mother Warns Of A Dark Side
After setting up a meeting, she cautions that her daughter possesses a dark side that they should be cautious of. Later, at The Prince Albert, Cindy confesses to reaching out to Jasmine’s mother, which sends Jasmine into a furious rage.
In a moment of anger, she pushes Cindy down the staircase, where she is later found by Oscar Branning (Pierre Moullier).
He raises the alarm and interrogates his girlfriend about the incident, but Jasmine is eager to downplay the situation and fabricates a story about what transpired.
Vicki And Ross Reunite
It’s Vicki and Ross’s second anniversary, and they’re feeling introspective-she goes to Harry’s Barn for a drink but gets furious at the behavior of one of the patrons.
Chelsea Fox (Zaraah Abrahams) notices that her confrontation with Joel Marshall (Max Murray) has drastically altered her view of men. Ross shows up to find her dancing, but he makes an assumption that angers her.
The following day, they sit down for a drink, and he successfully offers a sincere apology for mishandling the situation with Joel’s parenting. With misunderstandings resolved, they agree to take things at a slower pace moving forward.
Lauren Is Scammed
Lauren and Peter Beale (Dayle Hudson) find themselves overwhelmed with details about innovative treatments that might assist with Jimmy Beale’s (uncredited) visual impairment. While Lauren is curious, Ian Beale (Adam Woodyatt) believes it’s a scam.
Eager to do what’s best for her son, she speaks with the doctor and learns that an upfront fee of £3k is required to get started.
She has seen the ‘results’ that these treatments could yield and discusses her lingering concerns with Cindy; later at The Vic, she realizes that the time to act is now-he needs assistance.
Sadly, after viewing the situation through an optimistic lens, Lauren soon discovers that she has fallen victim to the ‘doctor’s’ deceit.

This is on both their mobile phones and The Vic landline. Zoe Slater (Michelle Ryan) believes she has figured out who is making the calls, but the rest of the family does not share her opinion.
Later, Anthony Trueman (Nicholas Bailey) offers a much-needed shoulder to lean on, prompting her to visit the Trueman household. The following day, a Christmas card arrives, bearing a chilling message.
