Todd Grimshaw’s drama this week is the kind of drama that makes people want to watch more and scream “Todd, wake up!” Todd’s relationship with Theo Silverton was considered a rare bright spot in his turbulent life.

But soon, that light quickly turned red.

Everything started with Millie – Theo’s daughter. She seemed gentle, delicate, and polite at first.

But the more the audience watched, the more they realized that Millie was not as simple as she appeared.

Text messages, ambiguous statements, and “possessive” hints began to appear. And in these clues, people gradually sensed a goal: Millie did not want her father to be with Todd.

What’s shocking is that Theo – the only adult in the triangle – starts to show signs of hiding something. He seems to always be evasive when Todd asks about his past marriage, about the real reason for the rift between him and Millie’s mother. That silence makes Todd suspicious, and as his suspicions grow, he starts to do things that are not Todd’s – including hiding Theo’s phone to find evidence.

The moment Todd holds the phone in his hand, standing in front of the mirror, trembling and pursing his lips, is when the audience knows: he is entering dangerous territory. When Todd sneaks a message, the frame is shot in slow motion, so much so that the audience can feel his heart rate increase. And then… Millie’s message appears.

There’s no direct “I hate Todd” content, but the tone is clear: reminding his father of “real family”, “outsiders never understand”, “you don’t owe anyone but me”… These words not only push Todd away but also seem to lock Theo into a circle of emotional control.
