EastEnders: Will It All Fall Apart in One Night?
The Queen Vic’s co-owner, Elaine, cheated on George Knight earlier this week, shocking all of us. Although the betrayal was unbelievable, it wasn’t unexpected because she had been hiding her hatred against George’s relationship with his ex-wife, Cindy Beale
Elaine chose to look for someone new rather than face the problem, and she fell in love with a man named Stephen. That secret is now blowing up. Their once-stable marriage is in danger once the charming landlord learns of the affair.
The Party That Made A BIG Mess
Elaine hosts a cocktail party at the pub with Kim Fox, Mo Harris, Denise, Honey, Priya, and Yolande, as if things weren’t already getting out of control. She surprises everyone by declaring that prosecco is free all night, leaving Linda speechless.
However, the observer, Phil Mitchell, sees that the landlady is having difficulty managing the Vic’s task by herself. It becomes evident that something is drastically wrong when Elaine casually offers to take Priya on a singles cruise and expediently pays the £5,000 bill directly from the business account.
After confronting her mother out of disgust, Linda is silenced. The following morning, still intoxicated, Elaine ignores any charge, but Linda bears the emotional burden in silence.
How Much Can Linda Take?
Linda’s internal conflict is getting worse as her mother spins out of control and Phil keeps a close eye on her. Viewers know Linda just got out of rehab and is making an effort to keep up, but Elaine’s actions are pushing her to the limit.
Concerned that Elaine is risking it all without thinking of Linda’s risky recovery, Phil decides to intervene and speak with her personally. However, Linda puts on a strong front and says she’s alright, even though she’s not, not when Elaine tries to talk things out.
Questions start to surface as Linda loses control and Elaine keeps making poor choices. Is Linda going to relapse? Fans will have to wait to find out what happens next in the plot. For more such EastEnders updates, keep following Soap Opera Daily.
