Moira and Cain Dingle decided to give their marriage another go in Emmerdale on Tuesday March 4. These second thoughts came as she was spurred on by a pep talk from Ruby and some good news about her recovery.
Things were looking dicey for a while there, with Cain having spent the night on the Woolpack sofa after his marriage ended. But, with Moira deciding to give him a second chance, is it all smooth sailing from here on?
Elsewhere, Marlon was horrified when Dylan paid April a visit.
And, as Jacob planned Leyla’s funeral, Liam worried about his well-being. Meanwhile, Dawn flirted with Joe, who headed off to a mystery appointment.
Here’s everything that happened in Emmerdale on Tuesday March 4.
Moira got the all-clear in Emmerdale
As Moira anxiously awaited news in hospital, Liam paid Cain a visit (at the Woolpack, where he’d slept on the sofa) to check on his pal. He invited Cain for a stroll over to the allotment, but he was in no mood. Liam soon put his foot in it, telling him that Moira was at a hospital appointment (so much for doctor-patient confidentiality).
The doctor had good news for Moira, who learned that the scans had all come up clear. She swung around to tell Cain the good news – before informing him she wanted to share the bad news of her break-up with Kyle and Isaac.
In a mood, he stomped off to the garage – but not before she reminded him that it was all her fault. As Moira enjoyed a drink at the bar, she shared a tense interaction with Ruby. It was then that she revealed both the good news and the bad news – her treatment was over, but so was her marriage.
Moira and Cain rekindled their marriage
Taking her back to the Miligan household, Ruby tried to talk Moira out of ending things with Cain. She issued her a reminder of the whole Nate affair, telling her that their marriage deserved another chance.
Later, Cain and Moira swapped notes over how they should break it to the kids. Softening, Moira apologised for not telling him about the appointment. Fuming that she’d gone alone, he offered to be there for future appointments, and told her he still wanted them to be friends.
Settling down on the sofa, Moira told Cain about her conversation with Ruby. Confusing Cain with talk of chicken burgers (there’s four in every packet) she revealed that she’d had second thoughts – and wanted to give their marriage another chance.
Rejecting his promise to make it all up to her (“none of that – let’s just make it work”), Mora showed Cain that the affair really was water under the bridge with a passionate kiss. And, just like that, Emmerdale’s favourite couple are back on solid ground.
Now, let’s forget the whole Ruby thing ever happened please.
Dylan arrived in the village
Normality seemed to have resumed in the Dingle household as April pottered on with homework while Marlon filled Paddy in on her visit to Leeds yesterday. Marlon continued to stress over everything that had happened, plus the stress of her missing school work for good measure.
As he walked through the village, Ross spotted Dylan lurking around Marlon’s home – and wrestled him to the ground. Coming out to investigate the fuss, Marlon was horrified to see Dylan again.
April revealed that she’d invited Dylan to town. As April invited him inside, Ross only added to Marlon’s worries by pointing out that he was ‘clearly off his face’ on something.
As they shared a sandwich and a cuppa, Dylan worried that he didn’t belong in a village like Emmerdale. Taking April aside, Marlon remained convinced that Dylan was a wrong ‘un. As she leapt to his defense, re-iterating her responsibility for Becca’s death, Dylan returned, reassuring her she had nothing to feel guilty over.
Relenting, Marlon promised to talk to Rhona about lending Dylan their sofa for the night. Over at the Woolpack, Marlon was chided by Ross and Paddy, both of whom felt deeply mistrusting of the newcomer – and shared some more anti-homeless rhetoric.
Liam worried about Jacob
Jacob planned Leyla’s send off. Collaring Liam in the pub, he passed on a note from Leyla which contained her funeral plans – asking Liam to read a eulogy. Although they reasoned she’d probably written it when they were still together, Liam agreed.
He was shocked to learn that Jacob planned on returning to work, and tried to talk him into taking more time off.
Dawn flirted with Joe
At The Woolpack, Dawn enjoyed a flirty (or dirty) text from Joe. A conversation with Moira had her rethinking the important things in life – but not enough to call off the affair. Meanwhile, Joe was headed off to a mystery appointment with his mystery doctor.
What’s Joe up to?
