Rhona Goskirk unleashed her fury in tonight’s Emmerdale and kicked April Windsor out of the house following the incident with her brother Leo Goskirk. With April already facing danger as part of her ongoing storyline about County Lines drug dealing, could this spell more danger for the teen?
Viewers know that April and her boyfriend Dylan Penders were recently coerced into dealing drugs in order to pay back their debt to Ray Walters.

This week it was revealed that the mysterious Celia Daniels was actually the mastermind behind the drug operation and that Ray was merely a pawn.
In troubling scenes, April left Leo alone and she accidentally dropped some ecstasy pills on her way out. After Leo took one of the pills, Rhona and Marlon came home to find him passed out and he was rushed to hospital in an ambulance.
April bumped into Celia at the hospital, who revealed she was actually Ray’s boss. Celia slapped April and threatened to harm April and her family if April told the truth about where the drugs had come from.

Today’s episode saw the fallout from Leo’s accident as Leo was allowed to come home from the hospital and Ray schooled April on what to tell social services.
When their social worker, hilariously named Gary Barlow, turned up, April asked to speak to him without Rhona and Marlon present.
April told the social worker that she found the drugs and wanted to impress her friends. She later lied, saying that she acted out because of the pressure she was under in her home life.
Unaware that Rhona was listening, April said: “They don’t realise how much pressure I’m under, and that’s why I act out sometimes. It’s like she’s this amazing vet and he’s this brilliant chef and I’m not much cop at anything.”

She continued: “They don’t even know they’re putting the pressure on, but they are. I just feel this massive weight on my shoulders, that I’m trying to live up to something that I’m never gonna be.”
Later, an angry Rhona said she heard everything that April said, telling the family that April blamed them. Screaming at April, Rhona said: “It’s you that’s the problem here.”
After April asked if it would make Rhona happier if she moved out, Rhona agreed that it would be best for a few weeks, while Marlon protested.
However, in pushing April out, Rhona could be unknowingly putting her in further danger with Ray and Celia.
