Emmerdale - Gabby Thomas hatches a cruel plan against her unwell father Ashley.

Gabby decides to take action after Ashley reports her to the police for committing a robbery.

Gabby forces her way into Keeper's Cottage as she attempts to steal one of Victoria Sugden's dresses.



All hell breaks loose when Victoria stumbles across the intruder and is terrified, but the most surprising reaction comes from Ashley when he finds out and decides to turn his wayward daughter in.

Gabby can't believe that Ashley has left her at the mercy of the police, but when the time comes for her to speak to the officers, she becomes tearful and declares that she needs to tell them something else entirely.
 
Not long afterwards, the tables turn on Ashley as the police turn up to see him and demand that he comes down to the station.


In the aftermath, Ashley reluctantly admits that he shouldn't have gone to the police after all, but he refuses to apologise to Gabby and she's determined not to back down either.

When Gabby tells her dad that she wishes he would drop dead, Ashley retaliates by claiming that he wishes she'd never been born. With the tragic reality of Ashley's dementia hanging in the air, is there any way that these two will get back on track?
