April was feeling desperate and determined to save her step-mother Rhona from going to prison. The situation in Emmerdale was tense as Rhona's court case for kidnapping baby Ivy was approaching. Though Rhona knew she was in the wrong for taking Ivy, her love and emotional connection with the child drove her to do it. Despite not having a legal claim to Ivy, Rhona felt as though she was her biological mother since she came from an embryo that she and her ex-husband had frozen during their marriage. This made it difficult for Rhona to accept the idea of pleading guilty to kidnapping, even if it meant a lighter sentence. She couldn't bear the thought of being labeled a criminal and losing her career. Instead, she decided to plead not guilty and take her chances in a trial.
The whole family was affected by the situation, especially April who was angry at her step-mother for putting her obsession with Ivy above her and her younger brother Leo. When Gus, Rhona's ex-husband, takes April home, there is a scuffle between them. Realizing that her step-mother's future was at stake, April takes matters into her own hands and goes to talk to Gus alone.
Alan McKenna, who plays Gus, revealed that April's bravery and vulnerability touched him in a way that no one else's words had. Her story about her own upbringing and how it relates to Ivy's future made him think deeply about his actions and how they could affect his relationship with his daughter in the future.
Meanwhile, as the drama unfolds, other stories are also making headlines in the world of soap operas. In Emmerdale, Moira says goodbye to her brother Mack as he is stabbed by Charity. The show also confirms two major plot twists as three characters receive life-changing news. In a separate storyline, Tom will commit various forms of abuse against his wife Belle. It's a tough time for Rhona as well, as she faces some horrific developments that will have a lasting impact on her.
