EastEnders fans were left scratching their heads on Tuesday evening after Ruby Allen (Louisa Lytton) stole a pregnancy ultrasound scan from an expecting mother during her visit to the hospital.
The nightclub owner went for her first scan during the latest trip to Albert Square and she discovered that she was barely seven weeks pregnant.
Her husband Martin Fowler believes she’s much further on with her pregnancy so Ruby took drastic action in a bid to her dark secret under wraps for longer.
She got chatting to a lady in the hospital waiting area and she kindly showed Ruby her first pregnancy scan.
However, as the scan got mixed up in the pile of magazines, Ruby whipped it from underneath the woman’s nose and snuck it into her pocket.
Viewers at home rushed to their keyboards to point out a huge mistake in Ruby’s plan which could see her get exposed in the near future.
Taking to Twitter, one fan penned: “The scans literally have the mum’s name on dont they? Ruby is so dumb.”
A second person pointed out: “Wouldn’t the woman’s name be at the top of the scan.”
While a third wrote: “Ruby does realise that it will be someone else’s name on the scan photo, so pointless stealing it.”
A fourth social media user said: “That’s rubbish, they always have a name at the top, and that woman is blind as hell. Ruby would make a shit magician.”
A fifth moaned: “It’s all very well Ruby stealing that scan photo but it’ll have that other woman’s name on it.”
However, Ruby was one step ahead and put the scan in a frame, cleverly covering the date and name, before she told Martin about it.
The expecting dad was unhappy to hear that Ruby had gone to the first scan without him but Ruby reassured her husband that they were a family.
Martin gazed lovingly at the scan and a scheming Ruby watched on with a huge grin on her face.
Some viewers are convinced that Ruby’s baby scan blunder will be exposed by her former friend and Martin’s ex wife Stacey Slater.

One fan tweeted: “We know Stacey will see that pic, take it out of the frame and see the birth mothers name and 20 week stamp. She’s just found out she’s pregnant – it’ll be born two months early and no one will question it!?!?
Another added: “So she’s put it in a frame, so if taken out, the original name can be seen in the corner, convenient for an explosive moment later probably with Stacey.”
Will Stacey expose Ruby’s plan or will the businesswomen get away with it?
EastEnders continues on BBC One on Thursday at 7.35pm
