Emmerdale fans were left gobsmacked tonight as Harriet attacked her evil lover DI Malone and potentially killed him in order to protect future stepdaughter Dawn Taylor.
Though, considering how many times Malone has risen from the dead, we wouldn't be surprised if his body miraculously disappears again.
This evening, a furious DI Malone taunted drug addict Dawn, who got clean for her son Lucas, with heroin after discovering she had shopped him to the police.
Handling a gun, he placed the drugs on the table in the hope that she would overdose on them.
As Dawn broke down in tears, he told her: "Pick it up, that's a good girl.
"No pain, no violence. Your old friend's waiting for you."
But when Dawn reached for the drugs, Harriet surprised them both by smashing Malone over the head with a lamp.
Malone's body fell to the floor with a thump, with Harriet and Dawn staring down at it in horror.
Dawn discovered the truth about Malone's affair with Harriet and demanded the vicar to tell her dad about what had been going on.
She went one step further by reporting DI Malone to the police for misconduct and his secret drug dealing.
But has Harriet finally killed Malone?
