Hollyoaks' Nancy Osborne has revealed a devastating secret that will change everything.
Last week, Darren and Nancy's little girl Morgan disappeared when Frankie and Jacob left her alone in the house for a few minutes.
In last Wednesday's episode, it was revealed that Charlie Dean was the person who had taken their daughter and was anonymously demanding ransom money from them.
In today's episode, the Osborne's prepared to deliver the ransom money for Morgan, when Donny Clark arrived to film an appeal.
Nancy attempted to slip away in order to avoid any police involvement. Donny sensed that the Osbornes were hiding something and pushed them for answers. Nancy was furious when Darren blurted out the truth.

Donny insisted that undercover officers would be monitoring the drop, saying: "We would never advise cooperating with a ransom, but if you insist on putting your life in danger, then me and my team are going with you."
Meanwhile, Charlie called his sister Frankie, who told him about the police involvement and Charlie told Morgan that they were going back to the B&B for a night.
Nancy was heartbroken when she received a text message saying "I said no police". Worried they may have lost their chance, she lashed out at Darren, saying he had "blown any chance of getting her back alive".

Meanwhile, Donny told Nancy that the DNA samples they collected concluded that the blood they found was Morgan’s, but her blood type would mean Darren isn't the biological dad.
After Donny told Nancy that the biological father may have taken Morgan, she said it was impossible.
"I always knew that there was a chance Darren wasn't Morgan's father. But the man who must be, he couldn't have taken Morgan. He doesn't even know that he's her dad," she said, before revealing that Tony Hutchinson was Morgan's father.
Elsewhere, Mercedes McQueen received confirmation that she is pregnant with Tony's baby after their fling. With Tony currently in prison for the murder of Bobby Costello, he is unaware that he is in the centre of all of this drama.
