While her parents Nicola and Jimmy clashed about his nephew Tom and his latest bout of questioning for his abusing wife Belle Dingle, they were distracted by Rodney with the phone.
It was the centre housing daughter Angelica.
Viewers know the teenager is being held after killing her friend Heath Hope in a car accident at New Year - and then attempting to cover up the crime.
Nicola soon jumped on the call and became very excited, thanking the person on the other end repeatedly.

As soon as she put it down she told Jimmy: “We can collect her tomorrow.
“They said it was quick but the board moved her release up. I mean they asked if we needed more notice…
“We’re getting our baby back.”
“I can’t believe it,” replied Jimmy.

But then Nicola told him: “About Tom… if they do charge him, I don’t want him round the kids - especially not Angel.
“I am not saying he would hurt her but she’s been through so much these past few months, she doesn’t need any of this stress.

“Who knows what this whole expeerience has done to her? So if they charge him, I want you to keep your distance.”
“I will,” Jimmy said, adding: “But, if they don’t, if they just let him go, then I want you to drop it too.
“I agree, we can’t have Angel coming back to world war three.”
And unfortunately with the lack of hard evidence until the tablet’s hard drive has been analysed, the police were forced to let Tom go.
He returned to the village blustering - despite the obvious panic he was trying to hide - and Nicola was straight on his case.
While to Jimmy she insisted Tom was welcome back, to him she wanted him to know that she was onto him.

Darkest soap storylines
Over the years the likes of EastEnders, Emmerdale and Coronation Street have all tried to try outdo each other with their outlandish plots in a bid to keep us tuning in each week. But here are some of the darkest that had fans in shock...
EastEnders: Tony grooming Whitney (2008-2009) - Tony King first appeared in Albert Square in 2008 as the boyfriend of Bianca, played by Patsy Palmer. But it was quickly revealed he was a paedophile who had been grooming vulnerable Whitney, Bianca’s adopted stepdaughter from a previous relationship, since she was 12. The shocking storyline attracted more than 200 complaints within a week of it beginning. Whitney waited until her 16th birthday to reveal the truth to a horrified Bianca, who called the police.
Emmerdale: Holly's drug addiction and shock death (2010-2016) - In 2010, Holly Barton (played by Sophie Powles) became Emmerdale's first teenage drug addict. The shocking storyline saw her taking cocaine on a night out before developing a deadly heroin habit. Parents John and Moira desperately tried to help get their daughter clean but when Holly returned in 2016, following a four-year absence, she quickly relapsed. Fans were left stunned and heartbroken when distraught Moira found Holly dead in her bed from a heroin overdose.
Hollyoaks: Luke's rape (2000) - Actor Gary Lucy was just 17 when he took on this groundbreaking storyline, which saw his character Luke Morgan become soap’s first male rape victim. Luke had endured a long-running bullying campaign by football rival Mark Gibbs - who raped him after Luke stood up to him. Luke was left suicidal following the brutal attack, before opening up to his brother Adam. Gibbs was sentenced to eight years in prison. Gary won the Best Actor gong at the British Soap Awards in 2000 for his performance.
Coronation Street: Evil Richard Hillman (2001-2003) - Just a mere mention of ‘Richard Hillman’ is enough to send a shiver down the spines of soap fans. He is often ranked one of the most evil soap villains and it’s not hard to see why. The smooth-talking financial adviser bashed his ex-wife Patricia over the head with a shovel. In a bid to keep his mother-in-law Audrey quiet, he set fire to her house. And when Maxine caught him trying to murder Emily Bishop, he took a crowbar to her head. He made his exit from the cobbles in 2003 when he drove Gail Platt, played by Helen Worth, and her family into the canal. They survived, but he didn’t.
And later when his car was vandalised - seemingly out of revenge - Nicola’s eyes narrowed and she vowed to expose Tom for what he really is.
With Angel on the way back, she has every motive to protect her daughter.
