The whole Weatherfield neighborhood is about to witness a huge explosion because of the actions of Fiz Dobbs – the mother who has been under a lot of pressure and can no longer take it anymore.

On one side is taking care of her husband – Tyrone Dobbs – who is sick, her eldest daughter – Hope Dobbs – and her younger sister – Ruby Dobbs – who is always causing trouble, the housework is piling up, threatening messages from outside…

All of this adds up to make Fiz finally “explode”.

In the revealed scene: Fiz screams, bangs the table, even says “can’t go back to the way things were” to Tyrone and her two children.

She bursts into tears in the middle of the house, looks around the mess and says something like: “I’ve had enough!”. And then she leaves the cold rice pan, locks her room door and wanders the streets alone to find new air. The plot makes the audience lose their breath: Tyrone runs after her but misses her, Ruby stands outside looking in with fear, Hope sits in the room, hears the lock and bursts into tears. The moment when the “family that seemed okay” is shattered in front of the public.

What is worth noting: Fiz’s actions are not just because of a personal event but are the “last straw” after many times of having to keep face, pretend to be okay, and be gentle. And when she says “I can’t take it anymore”, the sky of Weatherfield will shake. Lesson for you to watch: don’t underestimate silent mothers because when they are silent for long enough, the explosion will be louder than you think.
