April Windsor (played by Amelia Flanagan) is desperate to get back in her friend Dylan Penders's (Fred Kettle) good books on Emmerdale (7:30pm - see our TV Guide for listings)
April almost wrecked her friendship with Dylan after telling her dad Marlon (Mark Charnock) and family friend, Paddy Kirk (Dominic Brunt), about the teenager's past involvement with sex work to pay for his drug addiction.
With dodgy drug dealer Ray Walters (Joe Absolom) now in the picture, Dylan is pressured into doing another risky job.
However, this time April volunteers to take on the task instead!
On today's episode of the ITV soap, April arrives in a car park to do a drugs drop-off.
But the teenager gets a scare when a hooded man follows her and threatens her with a knife!
He demands that she hands over the bag containing the illegal drugs... or else!
Afraid for her life, April reluctantly gives the bag to the knife-wielding thief and runs off.
When a shaken April later tells Dylan what went down in the car park, they are both worried about how Ray will react when he finds out his drugs have been stolen.
We already get the sense that Ray is NOT a man that you want to mess with...
Emmerdale continues weeknights from 7:30pm on ITV
