EastEnders spoilers and updates for the week of November 3 tease Zoe Slater (Michelle Ryan) plays the victim, while Eve Panesar-Unwin (Heather Peace) has mother trouble.

Also, Phil Mitchell (Steve McFadden) lashes out, Anthony Trueman’s (Nicholas Bailey) hiding something and Kojo Asare (Dayo Koleosho) frees Harry Mitchell (Elijah Holloway).

Zoe Plays The Victim

Zoe believes someone is trying to harm her, while Kat and Alfie Moon (Jessie Wallace and Shane Richie) are uncertain about how to help. Is this just another one of her fabrications?

After a disturbing Halloween, where Zoe feels she has another target on her, Kat does her best to support her, but Alfie insists there’s nothing to worry about.

Still, Zoe remains anxious and goes to meet the Private Investigator searching for her long-lost son. When she returns, Freddie Slater (Bobby Brazier) delivers some bad news: her kitten has gone missing.

Photographs Vandalized

Vicki Fowler (Alice Haig) finds the situation amusing, while Anthony takes a gentler approach, trying to mend things after his earlier awkward kiss attempt with Zoe.

Back at The Vic, the family is horrified to discover more photographs have been vandalized. Who is behind this hate campaign, if anyone?

Seeing her daughter’s growing distress, Kat decides to sell her half of the limo business to Harvey Monroe (Ross Boatman), intending to use the money to support her investigation. The two then meet with the PI, who has news about her son.

Alfie Does Some Digging-Zoe Is The Culprit!

They come home to find Alfie digging into the mystery of the picture destroyer-after he points at Bert and Ernie Moon (Elliot and Cody Briffett), they are shocked by his conclusion.

Zoe herself is the one at fault. With no options left, she confesses everything but pleads with her mom to understand that she only messed with the photos.

Before she can explain further, she gets a mysterious text from someone who claims to have her cat; Kat sees that Zoe is a compulsive liar and is concerned for her safety.

She arranges a meeting for Zoe with Anthony, but it doesn’t go as planned, and she creates another scene at The Vic’s quiz night.

Eve’s Mother Trouble

Meanwhile, Eve Panesar-Unwin is shaken by a familiar face from her past when her mother shows up-it’s a stressful time as Eve’s mum, Norma (Jessica Turner), is about to arrive.

As viewers may remember, these two have always had a rocky relationship, and discussing her and wife Suki Panesar-Unwin’s (Balvinder Sopal) plans to adopt a baby was bound to be difficult.

Eve nervously requests a reference from her mum, and although she has her doubts at first, she eventually agrees.

The two do their best to impress Norma, but it quickly becomes evident that she is skeptical about Eve becoming a mother.

They end up in a heated argument, leaving Eve uncertain about her choice; with no one else to turn to, Suki finds an unexpected confidant in Lily Slater (Lillia Turner).

Phil Lashes Out

Phil gets home to some shocking news about his housemate Nigel Bates (Paul Bradley) – and he’s not pleased-he’s angry to find out that Nigel has gotten into trouble and is facing jail time.

Poor Nige’ has turned himself in to the authorities after hitting Gina Knight (Francesca Henry) and Jasmine Fisher (Indeyarna Donaldson-Holness) with his vehicle. Phil thinks there’s only one person to blame for this situation – Julie Bates(Karen Henthorn).

He holds her responsible for not paying attention, but after talking to Jack Branning (Scott Maslen), he realizes he was too hasty in his judgment. The only person who can assist Nigel now is the clever lawyer Ritchie Scott (Sian Webber)!

Teddy Spills The Tea About Kojo And Harry

Additionally, as concerns grow for the safety of Kojo and Harry, Teddy Mitchell (Roland Manookian) confides in George Knight (Colin Salmon) about the situation. The drug-related drama escalates next week following Gina’s release from the hospital.

She notices that her father George cannot hide his worry for his missing son Kojo, and his anxiety deepens when Phil discloses that he did not authorize the time off work.

Unbeknownst to him, Kojo has become more involved in the drug operation, and dealer Tobias ‘Okie’ Okyere (Aayan Ibikunle Shoderu) is pulling him into the distribution side of things.

Kojo Frees Harry

Once he is alone, he confides in his best friend Harry that he wants to assist him in escaping his hostage situation. Dad Teddy has reached his limit regarding his son’s location and must inform George and Junior (Micah Balfour) about the situation.

George quickly suggests that the police should be alerted, but when Kojo’s safety is mentioned, he changes his mind.

In the apartment, Kojo seizes the right moment to take the keys and free a weak Harry. Harry struggles to walk and urges Kojo to go ahead of him before Okie comes back.

Anthony’s Secret

In another part of town, Anthony Trueman (Nicholas Bailey) is concealing something from his family. Meanwhile, Anthony’s behavior is quite suspicious, and the Trueman family can feel that something is amiss-secrets don’t last long in Walford!

Patrick (Rudolph Walker) is overjoyed when he shares his decision to remain in the area, having taken a permanent role at the Panesar House surgery.

However, he may have been justified in his concerns about his son’s actions… as later, Anthony makes a questionable phone call. Who could he be contacting?
