Emmerdale's Debbie Dingle falls into a shocking trap when she starts working for Tom Waterhouse in the New Year.
Debbie is currently blissfully unaware that her rich new boyfriend is secretly plotting against her family, but the truth looks set to be revealed at last in January.
Viewers know that Tom (Ned Porteous) is the mastermind behind the planned golf course in the village, which would lead to Zak and Lisa's home being demolished.
Still in the dark after Christmas, Debbie starts working at Tom's office and it's not long before she gets given her first big task – being asked to sign off on a big deal as a witness.
Later, when it's revealed what Debbie has signed, it's clear that she's been conned. Just what has Debbie put her signature to?
Charley Webb, who plays Debbie, revealed: "It's a big move for Debbie to start working at Tom's office, but Debbie is ambitious and she doesn't want to stay working in the garage forever. She's enjoyed accompanying Tom on business trips, so I think she's hopeful she can make an impact in his office.
What to Read Next
"Debbie is at the office and Tom's colleague asks her to sign off a deal as a witness. Debbie neglects to check what she is actually signing. She's a bit distracted, as it's her first day and she doesn't even think about it being dodgy."
Asked how Debbie will react when the truth comes out, Charley replied: "The betrayal will be enormous. It will break her heart, every part of it. The double crossing and deceit is too much. I don't think she could ever forgive him."
Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7pm on ITV, with an extra episode at 8pm on Thursdays.
