Last week, Flynn Byron (Olly Rix) crossed a line with Stevie Nash (Elinor Lawless) — and this week, Dylan Keogh (William Beck) has something to say about it.
With Holby ED stretched to breaking point and trust among staff fraying, Dylan takes it upon himself to do what Flynn refuses to do: face the consequences.
And his first stop? A quiet, loaded conversation in Flynn’s office that might just reshape everything.
⚠️ The Rumour Spreads
Word travels fast in the ED. No one says it aloud, but everyone knows.
Flynn kissed Stevie. She pulled away. And now she’s barely speaking to him.
Faith avoids eye contact. Jodie is silent. Even Rash, normally neutral, keeps his distance.
But Dylan? Dylan’s been watching it unfold — and he’s done waiting.
🧊 The Confrontation
(Dylan walks into Flynn’s office, closes the door quietly. Doesn’t sit.)
Dylan: “You kissed her.”
Flynn doesn’t deny it. He leans back, sighs.
Flynn: “It was… misjudged.”
Dylan: “That’s one word for it. Another is unacceptable.”
Flynn shifts uncomfortably.
Flynn: “It wasn’t some power thing, Dylan. We’ve known each other for years—”
Dylan (cutting in): “And she’s just survived cancer. She’s rebuilding her life. Her career. And you—her superior—thought that was the time to try your luck?”
The silence that follows is deafening.
💬 Old Wounds
Dylan sits — finally — but his tone stays sharp.
Dylan: “You’re under pressure. We all are. But if this department becomes a space where survivors like Stevie don’t feel safe or respected, then it’s already failed. And that’s on you.”
Flynn, visibly shaken, nods.
Flynn: “I’ll fix it.”
Dylan: “Start by fixing yourself.”
🔥 Meanwhile, Stevie…
Stevie, meanwhile, isn’t wasting time.
She’s requested to transfer out of Flynn’s direct reporting line — a quiet but significant move that makes her boundaries clear.
She also confides in Faith and Jan, and her voice, while calm, carries weight:
Stevie: “He didn’t mean harm… but that doesn’t make it harmless.”
❓ Will Flynn Face Disciplinary Action?
As Dylan deliberates with Siobhan McKenzie (Melanie Hill), the question looms:
Should Flynn be officially reprimanded? Or is a personal reckoning enough?
Siobhan, ever strategic, says:
Siobhan: “We can’t afford a scandal… but we also can’t afford silence.”
The decision remains… for now.
