But a special episode set to air tomorrow proves that’s far from the case. April and Dylan believe they are close to paying off their debt to Ray and Celia. However, viewers know the drug bosses will never actually let them be free. As danger comes knocking for April tomorrow, just how far is this going to go? April was in a mess in Emmerdale (Credit: ITV) April and Dylan thought they were free in Emmerdale tonight Ray thought he had it all sorted on Thursday (October 16) when Dylan got a job driving to Hull. But it turned out Dylan wasn’t the driver at all, it was too expensive to insure him, so he was just going along for the ride with Billy in the driver’s seat. It made it very tricky to pull off Ray’s risky deal, but Dylan was fired up when he managed to do it without Billy knowing. Pumped that he pulled it off, Ray promised Dylan more better paying jobs. Dylan could start to see the light at the end of the tunnel for his debt to be paid off. article continues below Read all the latest spoilers Meanwhile, April refused a job in Liverpool. But Ray reminded her she has a lot of work to do to pay him back. She tried to steal some of Rhona’s jewellery to get some quick cash, but Rhona came home. Rhona was so nice to her and understanding and kind, April couldn’t go through with it, so April told Ray she’d do his job. But it was too late for Liverpool, so Ray offered her something else. She is to drop something off for a very important client in Hotten tomorrow. Sounds simple enough and no different to what she’s done before. Right? Oh, so wrong, so very, very wrong… April and Dawn will feature in the special episode tomorrow (Credit: ITV) Special Emmerdale episode airs tomorrow featuring April and Dawn On Friday night (October 17) the soap has promised a “powerful and unmissable” special episode. It will focus on April and Dawn as their lives become intertwined. April finds herself in a dangerous situation with her mounting debts to Ray. Ray asks her to deliver cocaine to a man in a hotel room. Ray stresses Tim is an important client and April must please him. Before too long, April is trapped in Tim’s room. He starts pushing vodka and drugs and expecting much, much more. As she tries to get away, will she make it? Meanwhile, Dawn, still upset over Joe’s reaction to her mention of her past, opens up to him about her own experiences. The tale she tells draws a terrifying parrallel to April’s siutation as she recounts her past. Her past is what has made her so protective of Clemmie and so determined to do right by her and keep her safe. But can April also keep safe? Olivia Bromley, who plays Dawn, has said: “This episode is really important because Dawn didn’t have a stable family or homelife, which she explains to Joe in this episode, and you can really see how she got herself into such a difficult situation for so many years. “But what’s interesting with April is, she has such a wonderful family, and the world really is her oyster – she’s got a stable loving home, she’s at school and yet she’s still managed to go down this path.” Also in Emmerdale tonight - Thursday October 16 As April and Dylan celebrated what they thought was them breaking free, Dawn was bowled over by Joe's idea in Emmerdale tonight. Meanwhile, Robert got a shock as he lied to Aaron about where he was going. Dawn felt conflicted The school gave Dawn a ticking off and talked about fines as Clemmie is still off school. Dawn was fuming with their lack of compassion of the situation. It gave Joe the opportunity to again suggest a private school for Clemmie where she could start afresh. But of course Billy is not on board with that and Dawn isn't sure either. But as she tried to talk to Joe about her past, he shut down and refused to engage. Worried he was ashamed of her, Dawn was even more conflicted. Has this opened up a whole can of worms that could destroy her relationship? Kev made his big announcement in Emmerdale tonight Robert continued to juggle his double lives, lying to Aaron he couldn't go on Liv's memorial walk due to having to see his parole officer. In fact he was off to prison to see his secret husband Kev. And Kev had some rather surprising news for Robert: he is being released permanently. Apparently he is no threat to anyone (debatable if you're Aaron, but hey) and as he only has six months left to live they want to give his cell to someone else. Result for Kev. Not so much for Robert. Fortunately Kev isn't allowed to live with Robert, he is part of an outreach programme and will be staying with Charles and Claudette. But how on earth is Robert going to keep this from Aaron now? Cain apologised Liam brought Cain back to earth with a cold can of water and some words of advice. Cain realised what a moron he'd been and headed off to apologise to everyone. It took a while, particularly with Kyle, but everyone seemed to forgive him. But how long will it take him to forgive himself for Nate's death? Read more: Who’s leaving Emmerdale?
