Eastenders - Current Episode Discussion - VIII

[Dazzle]

Emma is suppose to have guessed Lucy was killed at home from Patrick's fall, how is that exactly?

I'm not sure exactly, it seems she just connected the dots. Max had told here there was a light on downstairs which contradicted the witness statements, so Emma realised something had happened at the house that hadn't been accounted for.

Emma didn't come across all that smart to me, she did after all fall for a suspect in Max

I think EE needs to address how Emma discovered Lucy was killed at home by Jane with the jewellery box

I know I sound like a broken record over this but it peeves me off that a genuine decent explanation has not been provided and also if Bobby bought the jewellery box back from the charity shop for baby Beth as a present, which is twisted and cruel by the little killer even though according to DTC, Bobby don't think he killed her, he may have said "I got Lucy's box back the one I used to hit her with in our fight before she was killed but she did start it"

So much of this storyline don't make sense the more I think about it now after the reveal maybe I should stop

I agree, I commented on Emma's dimness (can't remember which thread) earlier today. All I can say is she was a trained police officer and she had evidence the police didn't have.

I don't think Emma knew about the jewellery box. That's certainly never been stated to my knowledge. I speculated that she'd put it under the tree to provoke a reaction but there's no proof of this.

The only thing we know for certain is that she knew Lucy was killed at home (which has been explained) and that she suspected Jane (which has also been explained).

Bobby probably is twisted and cruel. He may not have intended Lucy's death but he hit her hard over the head during an argument, which isn't normal behaviour by any standard.

Bobby appears to have felt genuine sadness at Lucy's death (he ran away to sleep where her body was found) and, if he truly doesn't realise he killed her, he won't have connected the box with Lucy's death. If he did put the box under the Christmas tree he may have thought he was being nice in his own twisted way.

This is all speculation on my part though as I'm not 100% sure Bobby did put the box under the tree.

There may be more details to come out yet. I hope there are.

Yes, I think that's what happened.

But the post mortem revealed Lucy was killed by a blow to the head nothing about a fall so it was a big jump and conclusion for Emma to make imo

Maybe it was just the "at home" bit that connected some dots for Emma.

I was thinking that a way to conveniently get the police case dropped once and for all would be to have a not-so-innocent blamed for Lucy's death. Maybe when the "innocent" is arrested Ian persuades Dot to say that Nick did it. Perhaps by keeping the Beale family out of it and stopping an innocent person going to jail Dot would feel she'd atoned somewhat for Nick's death. Of course, Ian would have to confide the truth for Dot for this to happen.

Dean's another possibility if he's dead (or soon to be dead), especially as Mick knows Ian's aware who the killer is.

Weakest duff duff in a long time. Danny and Kellie must have them written into their contracts

I would like to see how Emma connected the dots from that

I hope Lauren goes with Peter to New Zealand, I want a happy ending for them

I don't think Dean is dead

Massod seems very worried and caring for Jane, does he know what Bobby did, could he have helped?

I don't think Ian will manage to keep quite he is struggling already and how lucky Keeble is scaling back the investigation into Lucy's murder
