Rhona struggles to keep her cool in court.
RHONA Goskirk is left horrified as her ex Gus twists the knife in brutal court scenes in Emmerdale.
The former couple have been at loggerheads for months, ever since Rhona discovered Gus had stolen her frozen embryos to have a baby with his wife, Lucy.
But when Lucy suddenly died, Gus was left to look after his newborn daughter Ivy alone, until Rhona and her family offered to help.
However, when Gus revealed plans to move aboard with baby Ivy, Rhona panicked and kidnapped her, having become attached to tot.
Rhona was subsequently arrested and in upcoming scenes, she finally heads to court, but struggles to take her mind off the charges she faces.
Once in court, Gus begins to twist the narrative as a horrified Rhona watches on.
Soon, Rhona’s defence fights back when they begin to question Gus’ good character and when Vanessa prepares to take the stand, Rhona hopes the tide is beginning to turn, but will Vanessa be caught out by the prosecution’s questions?
Meanwhile, Paddy’s attempts to distract April fall at the first hurdle when the Woolpack starts to descend into a debate about Rhona’s court case.
Back in court, Rhona takes to the stand and facing the prosecution’s accusations about her character, a fired up Rhona begins to lose her composure and lashes out at Gus.
When the judge adjourns for the day, Rhona is left kicking herself for getting so upset.
The debate at the Woolpack rages on but the group are put in their place when April worries that if even Rhona’s friends can’t agree, then how will the jury.
Rhona’s shaken when a smug Gus revels in her capitulation in court.
As the jury heads off to deliberate, Rhona’s fate hangs in the balance and she paces anxiously as she awaits their decision.
Has her outburst swayed their view? Will Gus’ twisted tactics pay off?
