Emmerdale's sinister new villain Ray Walters steps up his plans to trap April Windsor and Dylan Penders next week, as April becomes a full-time drug dealer.

The troubled teens believe they're in masses of debt to the drug lord, and he has them under his control. Will April and Dylan manage to find a way out of his dark web?

"April and Dylan can't see an escape from this debt nightmare," our Emmerdale source explains.

"Ray's charming and convincing, pretending to help them out. But in actual fact they've become his minions, doing all his dirty work?"

After April's previous confrontation with Ray, Dylan's eager to check in on his girlfriend. Unlike him, April has doubts over Ray's trustworthiness ? but the pair try to keep positive, hoping he'll help them repay their debts?

When she runs into Ray, April is apologetic for her earlier behaviour, convinced he's the only one who can help them now. She mentions Dylan has a job at the depot, and Ray is delighted by this update.

"Having access to a depot is a drug lord's dream," our insider continues. "Dylan can be Ray's inside man now, transporting drugs around with Caleb's trucks. Dylan's played right into his hands?"

When Ross Barton spots that April is looking depressed, he takes her to the caf? for a chat. But as she tries to explain what's worrying her, she avoids telling Ross too much about the pressure she's under.

Meanwhile, Ray pressurises Dylan, ruining his chances of making a good start at his new job and reminding him there's no escape?

Later, Paddy Dingle learns Dylan is desperate to learn to drive, thanks to Ray's demands, and the vet offers the lad some driving lessons. But as Paddy cements himself as a father figure in Dylan's life, Ray's manipulating April into becoming a dealer.

"April's horrified to hear exactly how much she and Dylan owe," our spy warns. "So Ray steps in with the perfect solution.

"He explains the role, and once April digests the brutal consequences of messing this up, she takes a burner phone from him?"

Offering to solve all of April and Dylan's problems, Ray acts the hero. But indebted to him and trapped in his chain of command, their future lies entirely in his hands.

Will April and Dylan speak up and ask for help before they become trapped in the dark world of drug dealing forever? Or will they manage to break free from Ray's clutches?

It's crunch time for Emmerdale's Charity Dingle next week, as she arranges a DNA test to determine whether Ross Barton is the father of her baby.

With Sarah Sugden and Jacob Gallagher's excitement growing by the day, Charity can't bear the burden of not knowing the truth any longer, and she finally gives in to Ross's demands.

But will she get the result she's been hoping for?

"Charity would happily bury her head in the sand about this, and hand the baby over to Sarah," our Emmerdale source explains. "The only thing that matters to her is her granddaughter's happiness.

"But with Ross a daily irritant in her life, she can't escape reality ? the baby could easily be his."

As every day passes and Charity feels her body changing, her guilt grows. Ross wants answers and he won't be brushed off easily, so Charity is left with no choice but to get a DNA test.

She heads to the hospital, forced to sneak out before too many questions are asked. But back in the village, her clandestine conversations with Ross about her appointment are spotted by eagle-eyed Chas Dingle ? and she's onto them.

"Chas can sense when Charity's up to something just by looking at her," our insider continues. "She notices there's an odd atmosphere between Charity and Ross.

"This is more than just a disagreement about Moses, Charity is not behaving like herself?"

Charity tells her potential baby-daddy that they have 10 days to wait before they find out the truth about whose child is growing inside her, and Ross is less than impressed.

He's frustrated by Charity's blas? attitude, pointing out they could have known the truth already had she done the test earlier.

However, Ross's anger also hides his worries about becoming a dad again, especially in circumstances like these. With both Charity and Ross praying the baby isn't theirs, it's a waiting game until they know whether this pregnancy could completely blow apart Charity's life.

And as Chas keeps a closer eye on Charity, will she suss out why this surrogacy plan is no longer making her cousin fulfilled?

Or will Chas be Charity's first port of call for a confidante and the shoulder to cry on she so desperately needs?

Monday

Emmerdale's Dylan just can't escape Ray i

Ray's hold on Dylan and April just gets tighter and tighter. He's got them doing whatever he pleases, whenever he pleases unaware that the debt they're in to the druglord is nothing but a ruse of his own making.

April's recent frank, and fierce chat with the dealer just seems to have tightened the confusing bond thanks to manipulative Ray's mind games.

When the teenager apologises to Ray for all she said, his ears prick up as she reveals Dylan's been hired at the Depot.

No sooner as Dylan put on his high-vis than Ray's there, prowling.

Given that Caleb's business is a delivery service, Ray realises this could work really well for him. Dylan's heart sinks when he twigs that Ray is about to pollute his new start with his druggy demands.

At the cafe, April runs into Ross and clearly wants to offload. But Ross is super distracted by his phone and is only half listening to the troubled teen who suggests she's in trouble with someone but doesn't reveal that it's way more than just a spat with a mate.

Over at the surgery, Claudette is determined to get Liam checked out.

Having found him taking a pee at the allotments, she went on to learn that the GP is constantly getting caught short and wants her boss to address the issue.

Insisting that it's way too busy at work to take time out, Liam tells Claudette to cancel it.


Tuesday

Caleb Miligan tries to make his exit

So Caleb's got an urgent errand to run, but the setup is super secret, super toxic and utterly mind-blowing.

But as he's attempting to leave the house without Ruby catching him, the jittery business owner is caught in the act by his wife and sister Chas.

Ruby wants to know where he's headed but there's no way Caleb can tell her… Is his top-secret, high-risk mission about to fall apart?



Wednesday

Charity is struggling with her guilty conscience

There's a ton of stuff going on in Charity's world right now. She's stressed to the max about what's gone on and on top of that she's got a pregnancy secret growing inside her.

As she tries to keep up appearances, masking her fears, Ross isn't bothered about what she's going through, he just wants to know if she's carrying his kid.

Though Charity's trying to convince herself that the surrogacy has worked and that she's carrying her granddaughter Sarah's baby, she knows there's a huge possibility her drunken night with Ross has landed her carrying another of his kids.

How much longer can she keep up the act?

There's trouble up at the Depot where, as per usual, Jai and Caleb are clashing.

'General manager' Jai can't stand the way Caleb runs the business and thinks he's being way too casual about procedure.

Meanwhile newbie Dylan is trying to make a good impression on his bosses but Ray's doing him no favours.

Dylan's caught like a rabbit in the headlights when his drug dealer boss pitches up and insists he's taking him off on a driving lesson.

Over at the cafe, Liam's trying to have a quiet cuppa when Claudette starts up about his bladder problem.



Thursday

Chas is given difficult news

Things come to a head for Liam Cavanagh who's been trying to ignore his bladder issue.

Claudette's been on at her GP boss to address his health problem but so far has been met with excuse after excuse.

But when fellow GP Manpreet catches her colleague taking a leak in his consulting room sink, Liam's problem is brought into sharp focus.

Realising something must be seriously wrong for Liam to have to do such a thing, Manpreet forces the mortified doctor to get it addressed.

With an appointment booked, Liam then has to raise the matter with his girlfriend Chas who's had breast cancer and lost her mum to the disease.

How will Chas react when her partner tells her he's being checked out for prostate cancer?

It's one thing after another for Chas who's got a lot going on right now.

But another stress is added to her list when she clocks Charity and Ross looking really sketchy.

They're talking about the pregnancy, of course.

Though Chas hasn't a clue that Charity might be carrying Ross' kid rather than Sarah and Jacob's – one thing she does now know is that something is going on between the pair.

When Charity sneaks off to get a DNA test to find out whose baby she's carrying, will Chas press her for answers?

Elsewhere, as Paddy tries to be a father-figure to Dylan he offers to teach the lad to drive.

Paddy doesn't realise he has a rival in ruthless Ray who's got all bases covered when it comes to Dylan and his girlfriend April.

Later, Dylan's stunned when the dealer surprises him with a super generous gift not twigging that Ray's just locking him in.

April's taken aback when she runs into her druggy boss in the Hide where he charms his way round giddy Laurel.

When Ray tells April that their debt is still huge, she's unable to say no when he suggests there's a faster way they can clear it.

In a remote carpark, Ray schools April in how to deal drugs rather than just drop them off.

After she pulls off a demo deal, Ray gives April a burner phone and with that. she's fully recruited.

In the pub, April and Dylan reckon their future is looking rosy unaware that puppet master Ray will be the judge of that…



Friday

Vinny and Gabby need to be honest with each other

They've tied the knot but Gabby and Vinny have got huge secrets hanging in their closets.

Will they rip off the band-aid and confide in each other knowing it could ruin their marriage before it's really begun?

Vinny might not have noticed that something's got his wife rattled but Laurel has and she wants her stepdaughter to talk.

Laurel can't believe her ears when Gabby admits she slept with someone while she was over in Portugal visiting Bernice.

But Gabby doesn't want to hear a word of Laurel's pleas for her to tell Vinny about her betrayal. Instead she wants to focus on her family unit coming together now Vinny's agreed to officially adopt Thomas.

However, Vinny's secret could ruin that too.

Having gone to the police about violent homophobe Mike – who catfished sexually-confused Vinny and attacked him – a court case is now looming.

Though Vinny doesn't want anyone to go through what he experienced, he doesn't want Gabby to know he was questioning his sexuality in the run up to their wedding.

Will Vinny agree to stand as a witness against evil Mike knowing it could lead to Gabby finding out about his secret?

Elsewhere, April's got things on her mind. And Jai puts the thumb screws on someone…
