a video of a drunken April heading to a party, with Marlon feeling like he had failed as a parent.
He rushed out of the house, with Anna following him. She revealed that
there was something else she had discovered, that probably would not be best mentioned in Rhona’s presence.
She said that in some of April’s videos, the youngster referred to texts that had been exchanged her dad and his ex-wife Laurel.
Anna asked outright if he was having an affair, but he brushed off her theory – but there was some weight behind what she’d thought up.
What could be so secret?
In tonight’s episode, Marlon spiralled when Jacob Gallagher (Joe-Warren Plant) – who had started his first day working at Hotten General’s emergency department – called to say a stab victim had been rushed in, and it was April.
Jacob had discovered her purse in the victim’s belongings, and instantly assumed it was her.
Marlon and Rhona dashed over, and were later delivered the tragic news that April had passed away whilst doctors were operating on her.
Later, they were called in to formally identify the body. To their horror, it wasn’t their daughter.
Rhona saw red, and started to tear strips off Jacob for making such a quick decision to contact them. However, Marlon reasoned that he was only doing what he thought was best in a moment of panic.
As they began to make their journey home, Rhona dropped Marlon’s phone on the floor.
She picked it up and read a text from Laurel: ‘Thanks for keeping quiet about us, I couldn’t cope without you.’
Has Rhona uncovered an affair?
