What happened in Emmerdale tonight: Moira told Cain not to come home after he was arrested

Emmerdale tonight saw Cain let Moira down as he continued to wallow in his own guilt. And Moira got more bad news from her consultant.

Meanwhile, April was still not in a forgiving mood and Ross made things worse, and Anthony was on the warpath.

Here’s everything that happened in Emmerdale tonight, Tuesday December 10.

Cain let Moira down in Emmerdale tonight

Moira was waiting (impatiently) for Cain at the hospital with Matty by her side. Moira insisted Cain would be there and sent Matty back to the farm. But back in the village, Cain had no intention of going and was stomping around the garage.

Liam caught him and tried to talk some sense into his friend. Cain fed him some nonsense about being scared, but Liam told him to stop being a coward. At last Cain realised he had to get there, especially when Moira left him a tearful voice message saying she was scared and the consultant couldn’t wait any longer to see her.

Cain rushed off – smashing Jai’s car on his way as it was blocking him in – and then he was pulled over by the police. PC Swirling told him Jai had complained and as Cain got shirty, he was arrested for criminal damage and assaulting a police officer. Oh Cain.

In his cell Cain was banging and shouting, begging to talk to Moira. PC Swirling gave Cain some sympathy and did eventually let him use a mobile phone. Cain confessed what had happened and Moira was upset and angry – she shouted she was fine and he wasn’t welcome back home.

She then tearfully confessed to Matty she had to have radiotherapy because they think there’s a chance it can come back. Cain has really mess up this time, but can he ever make this up to her?

April on a downward spiral

Marlon and Rhona were trying to make things right with April, but she was not having any of it. She immediately went to see Ross and it came out that Marlon, Caleb, Charity and Jai had tried to set Ross up. That obviously made April even angrier.

And there was Mack making more snidey comments when he should really just shut up.

Marlon once again tried to talk to April about everything. He insisted he just was trying to protect his daughter and it had been wrong trying to set Ross up. April soon brushed him away and half-heartedly forgave him. But does she really mean it?

Nope! Because she grabbed a bottle of vodka and went to Donna’s grave where she angrily let rip at her mum. Ross found her and tried to talk her down.

Later Ross saw Mack and Moses together and realised what a close bond they have. It upset him and he hit the vodka he’d confiscated off April.

Ruby shocked Anthony

Anthony summoned Caleb over and wanted answers over his affair with Tracy. Caleb was not interested in listening to any of Anthony’s questions and threatened him with violence.

Anthony soon told Ruby what Caleb had said – and that he knew about Tracy. Ruby shot her father’s concerns down and insisted her marriage was fine. He begged her to leave Caleb, but she silenced him by telling him she also slept around.

Jimmy laid down the law

Jimmy read Tom’s letter and Angelica was hopeful her dad would support Tom now. But Jimmy tore it up, told Angel it was all manipulation and she was not to go near or contact Tom ever again. She stropped off. And we guess she probably will go near Tom again before the week is out…
