While she has the support of her family and some of the villagers, Belle has been accused of lying by Tom and others. Her worrying behaviour amid her mental health spiralling has left some residents not giving her their full support against Tom.

With her telling her family everything, she's now trying to prove what Tom has done, while some of his crimes have not even been exposed yet. On Wednesday we saw detective Foy tell Belle he believed her allegations, and he vowed to bring Tom to justice.

But with a lack of evidence and Belle breaking her bail conditions, there was concern Tom would evade justice. Things escalated on Thursday, as Tom smirked over Belle's declining mental wellbeing.

As Belle opened up to her loved ones, they reached out to the mental health crisis team with Belle admitted to a secure unit. On finding this out, Tom and his new flame Amelia Spencer was shown smirking that Belle was struggling, with Amelia clearly believing it backed up Tom's claims.

But someone else in the episode was shown questioning the truth about Tom after realising something was very wrong. Nicola's young stepson Carl was visibly scared of his cousin Tom, avoiding him and acting nervously around him.

Carl had been threatened by Tom recently after he got hold of his iPad, which could expose Tom's lies about spying on Belle. This is the missing evidence that could expose Tom, and Carl knows he smashed it up to hide it.
