Next week AccidentJacob helps Stevie face the truth about Marcus, while Faith clashes with Max and Rash’s story continues.
Here’s a full roundup of the biggest moments to come:
1. Marcus continues to control Stevie
BBC
Stevie is very much back in Marcus’ vortex next week, having turned to him for support after more setbacks.
As they arrive at work together, Marcus’s manipulation is clear as he criticizes Stevie for her eating habits and advises her to keep her distance from Faith.
2. Rash fights with Ashok
BBC
Rash continues his plan to place Ashok in a care home next week, but soon realizes that it won’t be as simple as he thought.
When Rush and Paige take him to visit the house, Ashok’s unhappiness is evident and he later runs away.
3. Marcus confronts the past
BBC
Marcus is rattled when a patient – Eloise – is admitted to the ED, claiming he’s dangerous and Stevie needs to stay away from him.
Upset, Marcus tells Stevie that Eloise is a volatile ex-girlfriend, who stalked him after they broke up and even left a dead cat on his doorstep.
However, when Eloise later urges Faith to protect Stevie at all costs, it is clear that there is much more to this story.
4. Jacob becomes suspicious
BBC
While Faith unsuccessfully tries to warn Stevie about Eloise’s anxiety, Jacob begins to see the bigger picture.
Aware of Eloise’s story, Jacob pulls Stevie to one side and suggests taking her out for a drink.
As they talk, Jacob brings up his history with Tina and tries to inform Stevie of the microaggressions that Marcus might have with her.
However, Stevie dismisses Jacob’s concerns and insists that Marcus is nothing like Tina.
5. Stevie is left devastated
BBC
Following her drink with Jacob, Stevie is devastated to learn that a private photo of her is being circulated around the ED.
Marcus is quick to point out that Stevie was “careless” with her phone, meaning anyone could have sent it. He then comforts her as she collapses.
6. Faith and Max clash
BBC
Faith is shocked to see new Clinical Lead Max yelling at a teenage girl.
The patient in question later causes friction between Max and Faith, but can they put their differences aside to treat her?
7. Stevie discovers the truth
BBC
Horrified by the latest turn of events with Stevie, Jacob explains that he met Eloise at a domestic abuse group.
Jacob tells Stevie that Marcus is responsible for sending the photo, insisting that Eloise’s ex-boyfriend (Marcus) isolated her until he was the only person she could trust.
On Jacob’s advice, Stevie then visits Eloise – who finally opens her eyes to Marcus’ abusive behaviour.
