Soon deeply buried family hurts surface, after Gemma reveals it’s the day of their grandfather’s funeral…
But Gemma’s not the only one dishing out shocking news.

And this is only the beginning – Iain’s unaware Gemma’s on day release from a young offender institute to attend their grandfather’s funeral. Since getting released Gemma’s already attacked someone…

In her grief Connie blames Grace’s severe injuries on Elle’s handling of the catastrophe. This week Connie attempts to manipulate patient treatment times in order to make Elle look incompetent. She later crosses the line when she convinces an angry patient to make a formal complaint about how the ED is run!
