EastEnders Update: Zoe Slater shouts “I murdered him!” at The Vic — yet the authorities claim Greg’s corpse was never located.
In a shocking and dramatic EastEnders moment that has left Albert Square buzzing with speculation, Zoe Slater erupts in a tense confrontation at The Queen Vic, shouting in a voice filled with rage and desperation, “I murdered him!” The declaration immediately silences the pub, with patrons staring in disbelief as the usually controlled and composed Zoe trembles with a mixture of fear, anger, and guilt. However, the authorities quickly temper the panic, revealing that despite Zoe’s shocking admission, Greg’s corpse has never been located, leaving the truth hanging in a suspenseful limbo and Albert Square residents scrambling to piece together what really happened. The explosive scene unfolds during a heated exchange with local bar staff and regulars who have been following Zoe’s increasingly erratic behavior in recent weeks. Tensions had been simmering ever since rumors of Greg’s mysterious disappearance resurfaced, coupled with Zoe’s erratic visits around the square and cryptic comments hinting at guilt. Her outburst at The Vic comes after an argument with Phil Mitchell, who confronts her about her recent suspicious movements. “I can’t keep this inside any longer!” Zoe screams, her eyes wild as she points toward an empty corner of the pub, implying the horrific act she claims to have committed. Shocked regulars freeze, unsure whether to call the police or assume she’s lost her mind. The dramatic irony comes in immediately after her confession, when PC Young arrives and delivers the chilling clarification: Greg’s body has never been recovered, and with no evidence, Zoe cannot be formally charged. This revelation does nothing to calm the room; instead, it fuels paranoia and gossip, with locals questioning whether Greg is alive, buried somewhere secret, or if Zoe has been confessing to a crime that may never be solved. Fans online are already theorizing wildly about the storyline, speculating whether Zoe’s mental state has deteriorated to the point of false confession, or if this is the beginning of a longer arc that could see the Slater family dragged into an intricate web of secrets, lies, and revenge. The tension is amplified by flashbacks shown in the same episode, hinting at Zoe’s complicated past with Greg, their volatile encounters, and the potential motive that drove her to the brink. Viewers are left questioning her credibility: did she really commit murder, or is this the culmination of years of suppressed anger and trauma boiling over in a dramatic public display? The episode ends with an ominous cliffhanger: Zoe sitting alone outside The Vic, staring at the darkened streets, whispering under her breath, “He’ll pay for what he did… even if I have to do it myself.” This chilling line leaves fans in suspense, eager to see whether the police will uncover new evidence, if Greg’s fate will ever be revealed, and how the Slater family will respond to Zoe’s explosive declaration. With Albert Square on edge and every resident questioning what’s real and what’s imagined, one thing is certain: EastEnders has delivered another unforgettable, tension-filled episode that will dominate discussions among viewers for weeks to come.
