Her sudden disappearance may serve as a key storyline, as her friends scramble to find her and piece together what happened.
The ongoing mystery surrounding Gary’s stabbing is also expected to escalate. With Zac and Fatima uncovering unsettling truths tied to Oswald Hudson — a figure from Gary’s past — tensions have never been higher. The violent confrontation that closed out the finale may lead to serious consequences for multiple characters, though it's unclear who survived the shocking shootout.
Meanwhile, Karen’s long-anticipated labor appears imminent, and her journey into motherhood could take center stage. Fatima's support during this life-changing event could also bring about healing between the two. In parallel, Danni may face emotional fallout from Tony’s unexpected relocation, while Sabrina’s trust in Rich could be tested following an explosive revelation.
