Here’s a closer look at all the drama unfolding in the village next week:
Ste and Rex Rekindle Their Connection
After experiencing a psychotic episode, Ste wakes up to find Rex looking after Clara and James.
Despite expressing his gratitude, he makes it clear he doesn’t need Rex playing caretaker. However, Rex isn’t ready to step back just yet.
He admits that he struggles to stay away from Ste, and as the two spend more time together, they begin opening up about their respective struggles. Ste remains unaware of Rex’s dark secrets, but with new photos showing them sharing a kiss, is a romantic reunion on the horizon?
Leela Becomes Suspicious
At the hospital, Cleo crosses paths with Mercedes, who is being escorted by prison guards for her chemotherapy treatment. However, when Cleo tries to approach her, Mercedes coldly tells her to keep her distance. The rejection triggers a panic attack for Cleo, and her ex, Joel, steps in to comfort her.
Meanwhile, Leela starts questioning Joel’s behavior when she learns that he failed to show up for work. When she later spots him with Cleo, she confronts him, accusing him of only staying in their marriage because Clara turned out to be his daughter.
John Paul Has Doubts About Jez
John Paul begins to feel uncertain about his relationship with Jez, realizing that their communication isn’t as strong as he’d like. His fears grow as he starts to believe that Jez may not be fully committed.
Elsewhere, Martha grows anxious when she sees Jez looking through his eerie book of murders. However, she’s relieved when he reveals that he’s been seeing a therapist.
Sienna and Cleo Strengthen Their Bond

Following his breakup with Dillon, Lucas tells him that he wants nothing to do with him or Rex. Meanwhile, Dillon remains preoccupied with a task given by Rex, delivering a package to Grace while showing off his flashy new car. However, Grace warns him to stay under the radar.
As Ste probes Lucas about his drug use, Lucas tries to steer the conversation toward his suspicions about Rex. However, he’s reluctant to reveal the truth about his overdose to protect Dillon. Seeing the rift between Ste and Lucas, Rex steps in, assuring Lucas that he’ll walk away if he ever makes Ste unhappy. But is this promise genuine, or does Rex have ulterior motives?
