Everyone is horrified by the sickening turn of events, and Elly can hardly believe what is happening to her as she is lead away to the cells - torn away from her baby daughter in a second.
However, it seems Claudia's sick plan might have landed Elly in jail, but that doesn't mean she is going to get her hands on Aster that easily, because Elly is going to take her daughter into prison with her.
Claudia's face is a picture of rage when Elly makes the announcement that Aster will be joining her in jail, and she is fuming that her scheming hasn't paid off after all.
As Elly is taken to prison in a police van, all she can do is watch her family disappear into the distance as she is driven away.
But how will she cope serving time in prison for a crime she didn't commit?
By the end of the episode it is clear that Claudia isn't going to give up on getting custody of her granddaughter that easily... but what dirty tricks does she have up her sleeve this time?
