After Abi disappears, the atmosphere in Weatherfield is as thick as a storm.

Kevin and Carl rush out into the streets, desperately searching for their wife and lover.

One is filled with betrayal and anger, the other with a suffocating sense of guilt.

The scene of the two men walking together in the rain, the headlights reflecting on their faces, is full of conflict, making the audience choke.

Meanwhile, Abi hides in an old garage outside the town. She shivers next to an old radio, hearing that she is being hunted. Each thunderclap reminds her that “things are out of control”. She tries to erase all traces, but then discovers that someone has followed her — a strange, slim figure, only revealing black shoes and a long, wet coat.

The audience quickly speculates that it is Cassie – the woman who had a grudge against Abi and is looking for revenge. The episode depicts the moment Cassie slowly opens the garage door, while Abi grips the wrench, ready to fight. The two women look at each other in silence, their eyes filled with fear and hatred – like two broken mirrors reflecting each other’s shattered lives.

Meanwhile, Kevin receives a text message from an unknown number: a short video clip showing Abi sitting in the car, crying and saying “You pushed me to the limit”. He is stunned, not knowing if it is true or a psychological trick that Cassie has used to manipulate them both.
