In the upcoming *EastEnders* episode 6988, Bianca Jackson is determined to uncover the dark truth behind Reese Colwell and his connection to his wife Debbie’s death. Convinced that Reese played a role in Debbie’s tragic end, Bianca hatches a risky plan to expose him and clear her pregnant sister Sonia Fowler, who is currently in prison for Debbie’s murder.

Sonia, a compassionate and beloved nurse, has been wrongly accused of smothering Debbie with a pillow in her care home. The accusation has torn Sonia’s life apart, especially as she is expecting a child. But Bianca, who has always been suspicious of Reese, refuses to believe her sister could be responsible for such a heinous crime. From the moment Sonia began dating Reese, Bianca never trusted him, sensing something off about his too-perfect, mild-mannered demeanor.

As the weeks have passed, Bianca’s instincts appear to be right. It’s becoming clear that Reese has been hiding a terrible secret. Far from the innocent accountant he portrays, Reese is actually responsible for his wife Debbie’s death, murdering her to escape a mountain of debts tied to her care home. Even more shocking, he’s allowed Sonia, his pregnant fiancée, to take the fall for the crime, knowing full well she’s innocent.

With Sonia’s trial approaching, Bianca is desperate to prove Reese’s guilt and set her sister free. She decides to take matters into her own hands, concocting a daring scheme to extract a confession from him. Bianca pretends to support Reese, acting as though she believes in his innocence, while secretly plotting to expose him. She hopes that by gaining his trust and acting as an ally, she can manipulate him into letting his guard down.

The key to Bianca’s plan is to get Reese to confess to the murder while recording it as evidence. She decides to ply him with alcohol, hoping that the booze will loosen his tongue. Bianca arranges to meet Reese in the living room, where she hides Freddy Slater’s microphone, ready to capture every word of their conversation. Her plan is simple: get Reese to relax, talk about Debbie’s death, and subtly guide him into admitting his guilt while the microphone picks up his confession.

As Bianca plays her role of the concerned sister-in-law, she carefully steers the conversation towards Debbie and the mounting stress in Reese’s life at the time of her death. Her probing questions begin to wear down Reese’s defenses, and for a brief moment, it seems as though her risky plan might actually succeed. Reese, becoming more and more inebriated, starts to let slip small details about his financial troubles and his relationship with Debbie.

However, just as Bianca’s scheme is about to pay off, disaster strikes. Freddy Slater, unaware of Bianca’s plan, bursts into the room, interrupting the conversation and breaking the tense atmosphere. The microphone is still hidden, but the sudden interruption completely derails Bianca’s carefully laid-out plan. Reese, now alerted to the fact that something isn’t right, becomes suspicious of Bianca’s intentions.

With Freddy’s unplanned entrance, the moment is lost, and Reese quickly grows wary of Bianca. Sensing that she’s been trying to manipulate him, Reese begins to question her motives. Though Bianca tries to recover and act as though nothing is wrong, it’s clear that Reese no longer trusts her. The tension in the room is palpable, and Bianca realizes that her entire plan may have just blown up in her face.

As the episode unfolds, viewers are left on the edge of their seats, wondering if Reese will figure out that Bianca has been secretly recording him. If he discovers the hidden microphone, Bianca’s entire operation could fall apart, and worse, Reese might turn the tables on her. With Sonia’s trial looming, time is running out for Bianca to expose the truth and save her sister from an unjust prison sentence.

This episode promises to be filled with dramatic twists and turns as Bianca’s risky gamble unravels before her eyes. Will she manage to salvage her plan, or will Reese realize he’s been played all along? And if Reese uncovers the truth, how far will he go to protect his deadly secret?

The stakes couldn’t be higher for Bianca, Sonia, and Reese in this gripping episode of *EastEnders*. As secrets, lies, and betrayal continue to shake Albert Square, it’s clear that nothing is ever as it seems.
