You did well at connecting the clues. I think this writer does these kinds of episodes well. Make a note of his name as you might also really like others that he pens for the show.

The everybody lives is particularly significant, because usually the death toll isn't zero. If you think about the previous 8 episodes.

Nancy not disclosing she is Jamie's Mother, is a societal reference of the time. A very young lady having a baby in the 1940's would have been considered shameful. I feel it's perhaps not necessarily implying she was assaulted. The fact she is living on the streets, could imply she might have been shunned by her family. Or maybe you are right and she was escaping someone in her family. But I think the dialogue was suggesting it wasn't that.

Unpleasantly, it was implied in the previous episode, when the children Nancy was looking after were talking why one had returned from the country after being evacuated from London during the bombing. A lot of children were evacuated to the country during this time. He said he'd returned to London because there was a man there. An ugly implication of some form of assault, could be behind why he'd risk coming back to a city that was routinely bombed. To live on the streets. So you're not way off in trying to decern the reasons behind these character's actions. It is obviously a writing device, not disclosing she's the mother as well. That's used to keep us guessing how it all connects together.
