EastEnders: Oscar Branning’s Risky New Friendship
The desperate teen who broke into Patrick Trueman’s house is now walking a tightrope. After the botched burglary that left Patrick injured and in the hospital, Oscar barely escaped capture. Howie saw the ankle tag and knew exactly who did it, but he didn’t go to the police. Instead, he twisted the situation to his advantage, blackmailing Oscar and Lauren while using Patrick’s gambling winnings to fix his problems.
Lauren is done with all the drama. She wants her brother to keep his head down and forget the mess he’s made. So when she spots him chatting with Patrick’s fiancée, Yolande, her warning is clear: stay away from that family. But Oscar doesn’t seem ready to walk away just yet.
Patrick’s return home brings no relief. Although lucky to avoid serious injury, his world has changed. He’s drowning in anxiety. The walls feel like they’re closing in, and he hardly steps outside anymore. Howie knows he played a part in causing this chaos.
