Tonight’s EastEnders finally sheds light on Jasmine Fisher’s (Indeyarna Donaldson-Holness) true intentions in Walford, and the answer

isn’t the one most viewers were expecting. While Cindy Beale (Michelle Collins) and Lauren Branning (Jacqueline Jossa) have been busy

trying to work out what Jasmine’s connection is to them, it turns out she has her sights on someone entirely different, and her actions over the episode suggest she’s playing a much deeper game than anyone realised.

 

 

The episode begins with Jasmine lingering on the Square, keeping a close eye on Anthony Trueman from a distance. Spotting Jasmine standing alone, Cindy wastes no time wandering over and reminding her she shouldn’t just ‘hang around on street corners.’ Jasmine brushes it off quickly, claiming she’s simply waiting for Oscar.

 

 

Cindy then heads over to Anthony, hoping to squeeze in her appointment at the GP surgery. But Anthony, looking slightly stressed, has news of his own; the surgery has flooded, forcing him to cancel the day’s appointments. With an unexpected day off on his hands, he decides the best solution is to head out for a drink with Patrick.

 

 

Meanwhile, Jasmine finds Oscar at the fruit stall and immediately quizzes him about Anthony. Her questions are a little too pointed to be casual, but Oscar doesn’t pick up on it. Instead, he jumps to the conclusion that Jasmine has a crush on the doctor. He teases her about it, while feeling slightly jealous.

 

 

It’s only later, when Jasmine and Oscar spot Anthony and Patrick at The Albert, that things start to feel slightly off. Anthony remains friendly and relaxed, enjoying the surprise time off, and Jasmine chats away to the pair casually. Oscar steps out and lets Jasmine know he’ll wait for her to finish up, leaving Jasmine alone with Anthony long enough for her to offer him a mocktail ‘on the house.’ Anthony happily heads to the bar to make the order.

The second his back is turned, Jasmine’s demeanour shifts. Her attention darts straight to Anthony’s jacket, and within seconds, she’s rummaging through his pockets. What looks like casual friendliness suddenly becomes something far more calculated as she slips his surgery keys into her hand.

Suddenly, Oscar reappears and catches her in the act. Completely thrown, he asks her what she’s doing. Jasmine, realising she’s been caught off-guard, quickly spins an excuse about needing some space for the two of them. Oscar seems confused but not suspicious enough to push back, and before he knows it, he’s following her out of The Albert.

Jasmine leads Oscar straight to the now-empty GP surgery, using Anthony’s keys to let them both inside. Oscar is clearly unnerved, not quite sure why they’re there or what Jasmine’s really planning. She distracts him with vague explanations about wanting time alone together, and Oscar’s thrilled to her her attention back on him.

As soon as Oscar leaves, confused and unsure what to make of the whole situation, Jasmine doubles back. She sneaks inside alone, making sure there are no witnesses. Once she’s in, she heads straight for Anthony’s computer, but what is she looking for?

With Jasmine now alone in a GP surgery, scrolling through Anthony’s files, the question now isn’t how she got in, but why she’s gone to such lengths to access the doctor’s private records.

While the audience still doesn’t know exactly what she’s looking for or what her connection to Anthony might be, Jasmine’s mask is slowly starting to slip more and more. Is she still digging for information on Cindy? But whatever it is she’s after, she seems willing to lie, manipulate, and break the law to get it.
