Jez keeps someone prisoner after being rejected by Martha in Hollyoaks

But who? And who’s been blackmailing him?

 21-27 JUNE

Jez is concerned to hear Dodger has planned to meet with Tori’s former social worker, but his plan to join him is halted when John Paul invites him and the rest of the Blakes to Mercedes' remission party.

Dodger is still investigating what happened to Dennis, and after tracking down Tori’s social worker, he meets him in the park. On edge, the social worker admits that Dennis confessed before his death that a member of the Blake family was harassing him.

When Dodger tells Jez that he thinks Dilly could be the person Dennis was concerned about, the spotlight shifts away from him, and John Paul is upset that Jez didn’t attend the party.

Soon, Jez has the smile wiped from his face after a blackmail letter is slid under the Blakes' door.

Martha tells Jez that she can’t keep supporting him, as his actions make him too hard to love and calls him a narcissist. Shattered and stripped of his mum's support, Jez is heartbroken for the first time.

Rejected by Martha and with nobody to confide in about his crimes, Jez keeps someone prisoner at the shed.
