Walford is set to descend into chaos next week as EastEnders delivers one of its most heart-wrenching and violent twists of the year — the shocking death of Harry Mitchell following a brutal attack by the twisted Oki Oier. In a storyline that blends betrayal, loyalty, and tragedy, viewers will watch as friendships shatter, families break, and the Square once again becomes a battlefield for vengeance and survival. The drama begins with Harry’s kidnapping ordeal taking a deadly turn. Still being held captive by Oki and his ruthless associate Ravi Galati, Harry faces increasing pressure to reveal the full truth behind the hidden camera that had been secretly installed in the flat. Though he confesses, Oki refuses to let him go. Instead, the deranged drug lord decides to use Harry as leverage, manipulating him into luring back Kojo Asar — a man who once considered Harry his closest friend. Kojo, who left Walford weeks earlier under the pretense of attending a car exhibition in Wales, had darker business dealings with Oki than anyone realized. But when Harry is ordered to call him, the desperate hostage seizes a fleeting moment of bravery. Instead of obeying Oki’s orders, Harry warns Kojo to run — to stay away from Walford before it’s too late. What he doesn’t realize is that his act of courage seals his fate. Oki, furious at Harry’s defiance, lashes out with cold, calculated rage. The situation spirals as Harry refuses to cooperate, standing up to the man who has tormented him. “You’re done making me your pawn,” Harry spits, his voice trembling but resolute. Oki’s expression turns to pure menace as he utters a chilling warning: “No one disobeys me and lives to tell about it.” From that moment, the clock begins ticking toward tragedy. Meanwhile, George Knight and Teddy Mitchell begin to sense that something is terribly wrong. Teddy, already uneasy after receiving a cryptic message from Harry’s phone, confides in Billy Mitchell. The pair agree that Teddy should head to Cardiff to track down his son — unaware that Harry is being held captive just a few streets away in Walford. Their search sends them in the wrong direction, and by the time the truth surfaces, it may be too late. In another corner of Albert Square, tension simmers beneath the surface. Jasmine, pretending to be Gina Knight’s supportive friend, starts probing for information about Cindy Beale and Harry’s recent behavior. Her questions become strangely pointed, and when Oscar tries to lighten the mood, Jasmine snaps — revealing flashes of aggression that suggest there’s more to her than meets the eye. Her odd behavior leaves both Gina and viewers wondering: is Jasmine working with someone behind the scenes? As the hours tick by, Harry’s situation grows increasingly desperate. Exhausted and terrified, he refuses Oki’s latest demand to call Kojo again. The tension between the two men boils over, and Oki’s fury explodes into violence. Ravi tries to calm the situation, but Oki is beyond reason. What begins as an argument turns deadly as Oki unleashes a savage attack on the helpless young man. The sound of crashing furniture and Harry’s desperate cries fill the air, marking one of the most gut-wrenching scenes Walford has seen in years. When the dust settles, Harry lies motionless. Ravi, shaken, realizes Oki has gone too far — but his fear of crossing the volatile crime boss keeps him silent. Oki coldly orders Ravi to “clean up the mess” and disappears into the night. Back in Albert Square, Kojo finally returns after ignoring Harry’s earlier warning — only to walk into the flat and discover the horror that’s been left behind. The sight of his best friend’s lifeless body leaves him shattered. Wracked with guilt, Kojo vows revenge on the man responsible, even if it means losing himself in the process. His grief transforms into fury, and in upcoming episodes, viewers can expect Kojo to spiral as he hunts down Oki, setting up a dangerous chain of events that will put several lives at risk. Elsewhere, word of Harry’s death sends shockwaves through the Mitchell family. Teddy breaks down upon learning that while he was searching in Cardiff, his son was dying right under his nose. Billy tries to comfort him, but Teddy’s guilt is overwhelming — he blames himself for not trusting his instincts. George, too, is devastated, realizing he underestimated just how dangerous Oki’s influence has become. In the aftermath, Walford becomes a community in mourning. Gina struggles to come to terms with losing the man she loved, while Jasmine’s suspiciously calm reaction raises even more questions. Her sudden disappearance the following day leaves residents convinced she knows far more about Oki’s network than she ever let on. Meanwhile, Oki and Ravi go into hiding, triggering a large-scale police investigation led by Jack Branning. As detectives scour the area for leads, CCTV footage from a nearby pub finally exposes Oki’s movements the night of the attack — setting up his downfall. But Oki isn’t the type to surrender quietly. Viewers can expect an explosive confrontation as Kojo tracks him down before the police can, leading to a revenge-fueled showdown that will change Walford forever.
