If the first episodes were drama-family, this weekend’s episode pushes emotions to the climax.

Eva thought she had taken control of the pub, quelled rumors, and prepared for a new life with Ben. But in just one night, everything collapsed.

Opening scene: Ben doesn’t come home, his phone is off.

Eva goes to the pub and sees the police put up an investigation notice – the pub is sealed.

The reason: the money to buy the pub comes from an account under investigation for money laundering. Eva is stunned.

Maria appears – doesn’t say anything, just stands there watching. Slow motion, cold light. One sentence from her: “Do you think you’ve won?”

Eva is forced to leave the Rovers. Leanne tries to stop her but Toyah advises: “Sometimes losing everything is the only way to start over.”

The episode ends with Eva walking out of the pub, the rain pouring, the background music sad. In her hand is a “For Sale” sign – what was once a dream, now a nightmare.
And Maria, standing behind the door, pours a new glass of wine. Fans believe this is not the end – but the beginning of “Eva’s Revenge” in the next part.
