Rosie's mother, Janet (Emma Fielding), cannot take care of her child due to a difficult pregnancy, and little Rosie is largely ignored by her father. She has a close relationship with her grandfather, Hugh (Patrick Godfrey), but things take a turn for the worse as he becomes senile. After David finds Hugh "cuddling" in bed with Rosie, he threatens to send him to a home. Hugh responds by saying, "I wish I was dead." That same night, after being sedated by his daughter Janet, he is murdered, and Janet commits suicide. She leaves a note saying that she is responsible for the old man's murder. However, later on, while eating at an ice cream parlor run by Audrey Strickland, Rosie (Tiger George) reveals to Wendy that it was in fact she who killed Hugh and Janet simply covered it up. Alarmed, Wendy tells Rosie never to mention it to anyone. Later, Wendy gets back together with her husband and becomes pregnant with Michael. See less
