Spoilers: Cain trains Samson for prison but Moira takes things too far

In Emmerdale spoilers for next week Samson gets an idea of what life behind bars is going to be like from uncle and prison veteran Cain Dingle. But when Moira steps in, things get very messy indeed.

In fact, before too long, Moira is taking things way too far. Can anyone stop her from dishing out her own form of punishment on Samson?

Samson unfazed by prison life

So viewers know Moira will never forgive Samson for lying about the stabbing and putting her son Matty behind bars. Being trans, Matty had a particularly awful time inside and it was only when Lydia realised Samson was lying and that Matty had stabbed him in self-defence, did she put her foot down and insist Samson go to the police.

Sam was fuming as he wanted his son to do a runner instead of coming clean. But fortunately Samson finally found his morals – and although he refused to dob in ‘friend’ Josh, he got Matty out with his new version of the story.

However what it does mean is that Samson will be going to prison. He has his plea hearing coming up and as he’s pleading guilty is fully aware a stint inside is a definite. He says he’s fine with it and seems rather chilled about the whole situation.

Worried Lydia realises he’s got no idea of the reality of life behind bars, so Sam asks Aaron to give Samson a pep talk about life in prison.

Cain beats Samson in Emmerdale spoilers

Cain overhears and decides to take matters into his own hands. Sam soon arrives home to find Cain battering and goading Samson. But then it falls into place – Cain isn’t giving him a hiding, he’s merely helping to train him for jail.

Cain is clear that the other prisoners will make mincemeat of measly weasel Samson, so Samson begs for help. He needs to know how to stand up for himself and how to fight dirty. He’s come to the right person!

Moira goes too far

As Cain sets to work with Sam and Lydia watching on, Moira approaches and is not best pleased. In fact she’s downright furious to see her husband fraternising and larking about with the lying toad who put her boy behind bars.

She storms over and says as much, calling Samson a thug and grabbing his face. As she pulls at him harder and harder it’s clear the red mist has descended and Moira is about to go too far…

Can Samson fight her off? Or will Cain have to step in and choose between his nephew and his wife?
