OK so obv Elly was innocent but Toadie said say guilty, excess stress, very sorry, you'll be free. So she did.
But Finns Mom wanted the baby so she got a crook lawyer who bribed the judge who sentenced Elly to 3 years.
She got sent to jail and bizarrely for someone taking a kid in with her ended up in a double cell with a bad lady. Andrea apparently has mates in prison and swapped into Ellys cell with an offer to protect her if she helped her get access to Hugo.
Finns Moms lawyer paid Andrea to cause a riot to scare Elly into sending Aster back to the Kenedys and then Finns mom exploited their stress in court to get temporary custody, she lived in Paul's penthouse.
Meanwhile Elly and Andrea fell out when Andrea found out Elly had warned Toady and Dee about her. Dee had started visiting to get to know her sister.
Today found out about the bribes and basically bish bash bosh got the sentence overturned.
Andrea had organised a fight between Elly and some rough 'un and just before Elly could get beaten to a pulp she was rescued from prison.
Dee was back for a spurious reason but decided to use that time to reconnect with Andrea and CrazyMama. They got back together because their love is meant to be. Or not.
Finn kept video diaries of his descent into madness saying how anoging Elly had brought back his evil memories and how the only way they could be together would be to bump off Bea. Of course Mark had them in his pc at home so Chlo copied them and the sisters watched it. Bea kept a copy and let Shaun see it. David also saw it as he felt guilty. Basically half of Erin's Borough have seen confidential police data. Of course.
