EastEnders\u2019 Jack Branning has made a deadly threat against Craig Ingram, after his daughter Amy Mitchell was confirmed to have gone missing with his former colleague. Teenager Amy is being groomed by Craig, and the pair have decided to run away<\/a> and start a new life together.<\/p>\n

To do this, Amy attempted to access her trust fund money early and as one of the trustees, Max agreed to sign the forms to release the cash to his niece<\/a> \u2013 with Amy offering to lend him the \u00a350,000 he needs to pay off Cindy\u2019s blackmail.<\/p>\n

Max planned to get the money then expose this inappropriate relationship<\/a>, so he told Jack about Amy and Craig \u2013 but the Branning brothers were too late to stop the pair fleeing Walford.<\/p>\n

In today\u2019s episode<\/a>, Jack was unable to get in touch with Amy so phoned his police colleague. But at that moment, Denise returned home from hospital so Jack made sure to keep her in the dark about this situation.<\/p>\n

DCI Ludgrove called round and explained that they\u2019d put a trace out on Amy\u2019s phone and cards and an alert out on Craig\u2019s car, with cameras covering every route they could take.<\/p>\n

He urged Jack to stay put as he is too close to the case and needs to be at home in case Amy comes back. Max was asked questions about what he knows, but he decided to stay quiet.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Denise\u2019s loved ones vowed to keep Amy\u2019s disappearance<\/a> from her, but Denise stumbled upon their discussion and grew suspicious that they were hiding something.<\/p>\n

Across the Square, Lily and Ricky were disturbed to learn about the gross misconduct complaints made about Craig \u2013 while Max secretly received the \u00a350,000 from Amy.<\/p>\n

Lily and Ricky eventually admitted that they know where Craig lives, so Jack ignored the advice of his boss and broke into the flat with Max in tow. As he searched for evidence, Jack was devastated that he hadn\u2019t noticed his daughter being groomed. <\/p>\n

Guilty Max was forced to admit that he knows Amy and Craig have money, as he gave Amy access to her trust fund for what she claimed was a college course, leaving Jack furious with his brother.<\/p>\n

That evening, Max called round to ask Jack if he\u2019d spoken to the police about freezing Amy\u2019s account. He then suggested reaching out to Phil and his contacts, desperate to get Craig behind bars \u2013 but Jack insisted that prison wasn\u2019t the solution.<\/p>\n

“There\u2019s only one way out of this,” he made clear. “There\u2019s only ever been one way, from the minute he drove off with my daughter. I find him, and when I find him, I get rid of him permanently.”<\/p>\n

Will Jack track down Amy and Craig<\/a>, and will he follow through on his threat?<\/p>\n

EastEnders has been working on Amy’s grooming storyline with support from Barnardo’s<\/a> and End Violence Against Women<\/a>, with support and information available via their websites.<\/p>\n

EastEnders airs on Mondays – Thursdays at 7.30pm on BBC One. The show also streams on BBC iPlayer, where most episodes drop early at 6am ahead of their TV broadcast.<\/p>\n
