Emmerdale tonight was packed full of the usual drama as Jai almost killed Caleb. And he would have done if Steph hadn’t arrived in the nick of time.
Meanwhile, Tom was making threats and there was a romantic proposal that broke our hearts a little bit.
Here’s what happened in Emmerdale on Friday November 15.
Jai lost everything in Emmerdale tonight
Jai found out the truth
After creeping round in the dark searching for evidence on what Caleb‘s really up to, Jai discovered an incriminating file.
Later on, the opening of the depot got going, but Jai stormed in and confronted Caleb in front of everyone. Caleb shot Jai down and revealed what had really happened – Jai had invested in the shell company, not the business Caleb Miligan International, which is the profitable one. The shell company is in the red and will never get out. Jai has lost everything.
We’re not ones to say we told you so, or cheer in the face of someone else’s misery, but Jai did deserve this, just a bit.
Also, after days of wondering, we finally know exactly what Caleb’s business is – a local solution to all your distribution needs. Because that’s just what the villagers need.
Jai tried to kill Caleb
Jai was still trying to get his money back, but Caleb insisted he had no way to prove anything. So Jai decided to fight back by trashing the place – and pinning Caleb up with a forklift truck, crushing him against some pallets
But his party was spoiled by an unexpected visitor who was filming the whole assault. Steph Miligan is here. She threatened Jai with the police and he insisted he was not giving up without a fight, before stalking off.
Later in the pub, Laurel found out Jai had tricked her out of her divorce settlement. Jai walked in and insisted he would do right by Laurel, but then launched at everyone else in the pub telling them he was better than them all. Nice.
Caleb’s daughter turned up in Emmerdale tonight
So why is Steph here? Well it’s certainly not for a happy family reunion when she admitted she was only there because she knew Ruby wasn’t.
Steph wants her inheritance and then she’s gone for good. Caleb begged her to stay, but it’s clear there’s a whole lot of family history to unpack here, and she is absolutely not over her messy childhood. So we reckon she’ll stick around for a bit…
On another note, she seems very posh – it’s an eclectic family mix, isn’t it the Miligans? Ruby is a southerner, Caleb is from Manchester and Nicky from Newcastle. We’d be lying if we said this won’t bother us a teeny tiny bit.
Tom played the hardman in Emmerdale tonight
After almost a week without Tom on our screens, he was back tonight whinging about being a victim. He wants to look that word up in the dictionary.
Tom has decided he is going back to work – whether anyone lets him or not. He won’t be bullied out of his job and they have no right to stop him working. Even though his bosses suspended him. Pretty sure they do have a right, but then again employment law isn’t our speciality.
Tom then confronted Paddy saying he wouldn’t be victimised (seriously does anyone have an Oxford English to hand?). He threatened to expose everything the vets has done wrong – cutting corners and letting the Dingles not pay their bills. Paddy had no choice but to give in.
Meanwhile, Jimmy tentatively broached the subject of Tom looking for his own place, but Tom emotionally manipulated him again and Jimmy backed down.
Also in Emmerdale tonight…
Pollard proposed!
Eric was back in the shop and Jimmy let it slip to Brenda that he’d been off ill all day the previous day. Pollard had to confess everything to Brenda. The new pills Liam has prescribed are making him sick so that’s why he took time off work.
They shared a tender moment and vowed to hang on to each other for the rest of their lives – which is foreshadowing that they don’t have long left together if ever we heard it, especially as we know Brenda is leaving one way or another.
Pollard was so grateful for Brenda that he got down on one knee and proposed. He told her he loved her with all his heart and she accepted. Happiness at last!
But why do Emmerdale do this? Set us up a happy couple for once all-the-while knowing one way or another Brenda and Pollard’s happiness will be ripped away. It’s a cruel trick, really and one we’re not too fond of.
Vinny and Mandy made up
Vinny still won’t talk to Mandy, so Lydia gave her some tough love and told her to put it right. So she took him a scrapbook of all his life, all her memories of him.
Mandy continued to beg for forgiveness and Vinny is clearly still struggling. But he admitted he gets why Mandy did it. And he told her he loved her, even calling her mum again. Aw!
