Gabby accuses Marlon of hitting her

Laurel receives a call from Gabby's teacher to explain that the youngster is sick. To ease relations at home, Marlon has bought Sandy a surprise mobility scooter, but Sandy is unimpressed. Home from school, Gabby causes problems for Laurel and Marlon and is then upset to see the couple kissing. Gabby shouts at Laurel, telling her how much she hates her and how she is not her real mum. Marlon tries to get through to Gabby, but she lashes out and runs upstairs.

Not long afterwards, Laurel is taken aback as a tearful Gabby claims that Marlon has hit her, just like Ashley hit Sandy. Marlon protests, but Laurel wants some space and heads out. Later, Marlon is alarmed to learn that Laurel wants to tell Ashley what has happened with Gabby. She is determined to sort things out, blaming Ashley for Gabby's actions.
