Hands up who enjoys a good old Emmerdale love triangle? Three might be a crowd, but there’s no denying they’re completely addictive to watch. And the village has seen plenty of them over the years – from brothers fighting over the same lass, to a one-night stand that caused death and destruction.
Now after Cain Dingle slept with his sister-in-law Ruby Fox-Miligan, he is struggling with his guilt. Their shocking liaison occurred while Cain’s wife Moira was undergoing life-saving brain surgery and has left fans disgusted by their betrayal.
While we all pick up our jaws up on the floor over this moment of complete madness, let’s take a look at 10 of the most tangled love triangles in Emmerdale history…
Robert Sugden wanted a bit of what his brother had (Credit: ITV/Shutterstock)
Emmerdale love triangles: Robert Sugden, Katie Addyman and Andy Sugden
Katie Addyman found herself torn between two brothers when she began an affair with Robert while she was engaged to Andy.
Robert’s initial motive for seducing Katie was revenge. He was jealous of Andy, who’d been adopted into the Sugden family, and never forgave him for starting the fire that claimed their mum Sarah’s life.
But as the fling developed, so did Robert’s feelings for Katie. They enjoyed secret romps all over the family farm, while oblivious Andy was planning his future with Katie. The dirty duo even slept together the night before Andy and Katie’s wedding. After marrying Andy, Katie tried her best to resist Robert’s charms, but it was no use. She made plans to run away with her lover, but then Andy found out what was going on and all hell broke loose.
Andy tried to shoot Robert, but their dad Jack was caught in the crossfire. Katie shacked up with Rob for a while, and they even got engaged. But their love story came to an acrimonious end when Robert strayed with Sadie King.
Years later, the rivalry between the Sugden siblings ramped up again when Robert tried to sabotage Katie and Andy’s second wedding. Weeks later, Robert pushed Katie to her death after she discovered his affair with Aaron Dingle. But more on that later.

Ross Barton, Debbie Dingle and Pete Barton
Debbie Dingle was another Emmerdale lass who didn’t mind keeping it in the family.
The mechanic was engaged to marry stable, dependable Pete Barton, but it was his younger brother Ross that got Debbie’s engine going. She even described him as her ‘best sex ever’. Blimey!
Ross and Debbie couldn’t get enough of one another and hatched a plan to run away. But then Cain put a spanner in the works when he revealed Ross had fathered a son with Debbie’s mum, Charity.
Deciding Pete was probably a better option, Debbie went ahead with the wedding. But as the couple took to the floor for their first dance, a recording of Debbie and Ross discussing their affair was played to all the guests. Understandably Pete did not react well to the news his wife had been screwing his brother.
He attacked Ross, and dumped his body in the woods, believing he was dead. But unbeknownst to Pete, and the viewers, Ross was still alive. He returned months later and tried to have Pete murdered. The idea of being with someone so dangerous no longer appealed to Debbie. Fearing for her kids’ safety, she put an end to their affair there and then.

Chas Dingle, Cameron Murray and Debbie Dingle
Once a cheater, always a cheater. That was Cameron Murray.
Having left his wife and kids to start a new life in Emmerdale with Debbie Dingle, Cameron’s head was turned by her Auntie Chas. Their high risk affair set in motion a chain of events that would lead to death and destruction.
During a temporary split from Cameron, Chas had a short-lived marriage to dependable Dan Spencer. While Cameron tried to stay faithful to Deb (who was pregnant with Andy Sugden’s son – a saviour sibling for sick Sarah). Are you keeping up?
But then Chas’s ex Carl King found out about the affair, and Cameron had to kill him. Debbie realised Cameron had been sleeping with Chas and dumped him – but they ended up in bed together. This time behind Chas’s back.
Cameron claimed a further two victims (Gennie Walker and Alex Moss) in order to protect his murderous secret. When Debbie and Chas discovered the truth they worked together to bring their twisted lover to justice. Cameron was arrested and sent to prison. He escaped a month later and returned to the village, where he took the locals hostage in a terrifying siege.
Cam’s reign of terror finally came to end when he accidentally electrocuted himself. While Debbie and Chas were left wishing they’d never dropped their knickers for him.

Emmerdale love triangles: Moira Dingle, Nate Robinson and Cain Dingle
Back in 2019, Moira and Nate sent shockwaves through the village with their passionate affair.
Farmhand Nate had already bedded Amy Wyatt and flirted with other local ladies when he set his sights on married Moira. Fans were in uproar over their fling, but there was a very specific reason Nate had seduced Cain’s missus.
Viewers found out that Cain’s love rival was in fact his son, who he never knew existed. But Nate had been brought up by his mum to believe Cain had abandoned him as a baby and wanted revenge!
All hell broke loose when Cain was informed by Pete Barton that his wife was sleeping with Nate. On the warpath, Cain tracked the cheating duo down to a hotel then lured them onto a boat, with murder in mind.
As punches were thrown, Nate revealed his true identity, and Moira fell into the water, nearly drowning in a tangle of weeds. Nate very nearly was killed too, but Cain decided to save him at the last minute.
In the aftermath, Cain and Moira split for a while, but eventually found their way back to one another. And Cain even found it in his heart to forgive Nate for everything he’d done.
Kim was at the centre of this messy love drama (Credit: ITV/Shutterstock)
Dave Glover, Kim Tate and Frank Tate
This love triangle was more of a quadrangle as it involved Dave’s other half Kathy too.
Kim and Dave’s affair began back in 1994. He was engaged to marry Kathy, but she’d imposed a ban on sex before marriage. Frustrated by the lack of action he was getting, Dave found himself seduced by Kim. She was looking for a distraction from her ailing marriage to Frank, and became hooked on the handsome farmhand. Kim and Dave fell in love, but their secret was outed after Frank paid a private investigator to follow them.
Weeks after being caught in the act, Kim found out she was pregnant. She didn’t know who the father was, but hoped it was Dave’s. In 1996, Kim gave birth to son James, and was gutted when a DNA test confirmed the tot was, in fact, a Tate.
Meanwhile, Dave went on to marry Kathy, but his heart was still with Kim. The lovers decided to run away from the village together, but never made it that far when Dave was killed in a fire at Home Farm.
Aaron did not like sharing Robert with Chrissie (Credit: ITV/Shutterstock)
Emmerdale love triangles: Aaron Dingle, Robert Sugden and Chrissie White
All Robron fans wanted was for their boys to be together, but there was a Chrissie-shaped obstacle in the way.
Robert was engaged to the Home Farm heiress when he started his affair with Aaron. While it was clear who he really loved, Robert was addicted to the lavish lifestyle he had with Chrissie. For months, he deceived his other half by hooking up with Aaron all around the village. Chrissie almost caught them in a hotel together, but Robert talked his way out of it.
The day of Robert and Chrissie’s wedding, Aaron summoned him to a barn, where he confessed his love. They were caught in the act by Katie Sugden, who threatened to expose their betrayal, but Robert accidentally killed her.
While Robert went on to marry Chrissie as if nothing had ever happened, the stress of covering up Katie’s death caused Aaron to have a breakdown. Unable to carry on living a lie, Aaron finally snapped and told Chrissie everything!
Robert found himself kicked out of Home Farm, and Chrissie swiftly divorced him. But despite everything, Aaron still loved Robert. They eventually reunited, going on to marry. And even though Robron are currently not together, there’s a sense it isn’t the end of their story.
Charity and Zoe enjoyed a fling behind Chris’s back (Credit: ITV/Shutterstock)
Zoe Tate, Charity Dingle and Chris Tate
Zoe and Charity’s lesbian fling caused quite the stir back in 2001.
At the time, Charity was engaged to Home Farm millionaire Chris Tate, but his sister Zoe did not approve of her brother’s choice of bride. She made numerous attempts to split the couple up, and then it transpired Zoe actually wanted Charity for herself.
The pair embarked on a lusty affair behind Chris’s back. But then Zoe ruined it by going all bunny boiler on Charity. When Charity decided to end things, Zoe made a recording of her admitting to cheating and used it to blackmail her.
Charity refused to be controlled, so decided to tell Chris on her own terms. Bizarrely, given the double betrayal, he forgave Charity and went ahead with their wedding. And as for Zoe, she was left off the guest list.
Chloe made Mack pay for picking Charity over her (Credit: ITV)
Emmerdale love triangles: Chloe Harris, Mackenzie Boyd and Charity Dingle
These three created one of the messiest love triangles Emmerdale has ever known.
Mack ended up in bed with teen Chloe following an argument with wife Charity. He hoped no one would ever find out about their one-night stand, but then Chloe revealed she was pregnant.
Baby Reuben was born and Charity dumped Mack when she realised he was the father. Mack tried to make it work with Chloe, but quickly realised she wasn’t the one he wanted to be with. So what did he do? He started sleeping with Charity again, that’s what!
His betrayal broke Chloe’s heart and left her in a vulnerable state. Days later, Chloe, Mack and Charity were involved in a terrifying car accident after a van ploughed into their vehicle, leaving it teetering on a clifftop edge. Mack managed to escape the wreckage and had to decide whether to save Charity or Chloe. He chose Charity, and Chloe fell with the car. She was in a coma for weeks, but miraculously survived.
Events reached a terrifying climax after Chloe’s gangster dad Damon kidnapped Mack. He was determined to make him pay for everything he’d put his daughter through. Charity came to Mack’s rescue and ended up shooting Damon dead.
Was it all worth it?!
Tracy and Caleb should never have gone there (Credit: ITV)
Tracy Robinson, Caleb Miligan and Nate Robinson
Last Christmas, Tracy was in over her head, caught up in a love triangle with husband Nate and his uncle, Caleb Miligan. Their hot and heavy fling frankly made little sense. Fans couldn’t get why Tracy would cheat on Nate given the fact they seemed so happy.
But she fell under Caleb’s spell and couldn’t get enough of the sexy businessman. After several very close calls, including nearly getting rumbled by Nate, it was Caleb’s missus Ruby who worked out what was going on. She took her revenge by outing their affair during Belle and Tom King’s wedding reception.
It was curtains for Robinsons’ marriage, and Tracy realised how stupid she’d been when Caleb went straight back to Ruby.

Emmerdale fans have bemoaned a recent episode that saw Cain cheat on wife Moira with Ruby, saying it undermines the brain tumour storyline.
Recent scenes have seen Cain Dingle feel overwhelmed with guilt over what he has done, and he has been avoiding spending time with his wife while she recovers from brain surgery.

Cain cheats on Moira with Ruby
Last month, while Moira was undergoing surgery for a brain tumour, Cain cheated on her with his sister-in-law Ruby Fox-Miligan.
The fling took place during a special episode which saw Moira dream of her dead daughter Holly Barton. In the same episode, Cain’s story was told in reverse chronological order.
Viewers first saw him with bloodied hands while drinking whiskey. As the clock went back further, viewers were shocked when Cain and Ruby were shown putting their clothes on.
Cain has been struggling with guilt ever since, and has been determined to keep himself busy in order to avoid spending time with his wife.
Earlier this week, while Moira recovered at home, Cain pretended he had to pick a car up in Dudley. He then lied that he was stuck there all night and instead spent the night parked up nearby in his van.
The following day he got himself arrested and thus wasn’t there when Moira got her test results.

Writing on Instagram, one viewer said: “I wish they never had that Ruby and Cain twist during Moira’s special episode. Very insensitive.” While another fan wrote: “Just completely the wrong story line here Emmerdale… you got this one wrong.”
Over on X, a third fan said: “Cain and Ruby is a ridiculous storyline. It’s completely overshadowed Moria’s and Ruby’s struggles.”
A fourth viewer added: “What have you done to Cain’s character more like?! It was such an important storyline, most people have forgot Moira’s symptoms by now.”
Another fan agreed, writing: “This went from unbelievable to unrealistic. Both actors deserve better especially Natalie, props to her making such an important storyline believable, even with the mess the writers made.” While a sixth viewer agreed, adding: “Having Cain sleep with Ruby for this nonsense was a ridiculous storyline decision.”

Emmerdale tonight found Cain Dingle on the verge of confessing to wife Moira about his fling with Ruby. As he drowned his sorrows, the drunken Dingle went on a village bender before being dragged home to his furious wife.
It was then that she revealed what the doctor had actually told her yesterday – and Cain once again swallowed his own lies.
Elsewhere, Ross made a bad situation worse, Jimmy and Nicola tried to cheer Angel up, and Ruby tried to build bridges with Steph… while smug Anthony continued to gloat.
Here’s everything that happened in Emmerdale tonight, Wednesday December 11.
Cain was feeling wretched (Credit: ITV)
Cain hit the bottle in Emmerdale tonight
Waking up in a prison cell, Cain was greeted by a sympathetic PC Swirling. With Jai agreeing not to press charges for yesterday’s rampage, officer Swirling offered Cain a few words of wisdom along with his release.
At home, an irritable Moira told Matty how she wanted nothing to do with Cain. A text from Chas reminded her about Cain’s upcoming surprise birthday party, but she and Matty were more focused on her treatment.
Phoning the station, Moira was infuriated to learn that Cain had already been released – and gone AWOL again. She was less than sympathetic to Swirling’s worries that Cain is ‘struggling,’ too.
But, after unveiling plans for a fifty-candle cake for Cain, Isaac had Moira doubting herself… the party’s back on!
Meanwhile, in the pub, Cain hit the bottle with a large whiskey. Nagging Chas and Mack both told him to go home and make up to his wife.

Moira told Cain the truth
Instead of going home, Cain headed to the allotment. There, he set about pounding beers by himself. It was there that he was found by Liam, who was worried to hear that his friend hadn’t been home yet.
Hauling Cain home (and apparently leaving three unopened beers at the wayside!), Liam dropped the drunken Dingle off, where he was full of (slurred) apologies. Moira ruined the surprise element of his upcoming party, warning him that he needed to get his act together for the kids’ sake.
“There’s something I need to tell you,” he responded, his guilt weighing heavy.
And, on the verge of confessing, he was shocked to learn that Moira still needs radiotherapy for a tumour that could yet come back.
She then informed him that, as he couldn’t be trusted, she’d face the rest of her treatment alone. Well done, Cain.
April learned the truth about her mum’s death
Ross started the morning by vomiting up the bottle of vodka he’d confiscated from April. Finding him in his car, she was appropriately grossed out by his current living situation. When he told her how he was planning on leaving the village, the youth beseeched that he stay and teach her more about her mother.
Reluctantly, Ross agreed. Over lunch at the Hide, he fielded some difficult questions about mum Donna.
However, Ross’s excuses for Donna’s death didn’t sit right with April. And, as he kept digging himself into a hole, April learned how her mum had actually died trying to protect her. Talk about making a bad situation worse. And presumably the pizzas went to waste too, along with Cain’s tinnies.
Anthony was in a smug mood (Credit: ITV)
A visit from Anthony
Anthony popped around to see Ruby and Caleb with an apology for the day before. Describing himself as an ‘overprotective dad,’ he managed to smooth things over – while Steph volunteered her mum to make a coffee for Anthony.
She also had Ruby score an invite for Anthony to Cain’s birthday party before flouncing out to work. Alone together, the atmosphere turned frosty – while Anthony tried to reassure her that he planned on staying out of her business in future.
Later, she attempted to build bridges with Steph. A tearful Ruby apologised for Steph’s rough upbringing, reassuring her that she’d always loved her.
Outside, she informed Anthony that she’d sorted his invite to Cain’s party. As Anthony reiterated his hope that they could move on from the past – “things that are usually buried for a reason” – Ruby swallowed her obvious pain.
“Positivity at last,” laughed a smug Anthony. “Be a terrible shame to let anything ruin it.”
Ominous… but what are they both sweeping under the rug?
Jimmy and Nicola got festive in Emmerdale tonight
Jimmy was feeling regretful at having torn up Tom’s letter. As Nicola attempted to draw him out of his funk, he suggested that they channel Angel’s energy into something other than Tom – Christmas, for example.
Later, as the family set about decorating the house, Angel appeared to show signs of lightening up. However, her festive mood was short-lived – furtively hiding an incoming call from Hotten Prison and, presumably, dear uncle Tom.

Fans of Emmerdale turned on Moira Dingle during Tuesday night’s episode of the soap – as she told Cain not to come home after he was arrested for assaulting a police officer. Cain’s tussle with the law came during Moira’s time of need, as she learned that she would require ongoing treatment to ensure that her tumour doesn’t return.
Cain, meanwhile, found himself in a prison cell after hitting Jai’s car, and then lashing out at PC Swirling. As he called Moira to explain himself, she reacted with fury – telling him not to bother coming home.
However, some fans found a bit of a double-standard in Moira’s reaction.

Moira receives backlash from Emmerdale fans after slamming Cain
Writing on social media as the scenes aired, fans shared their ire at Moira’s behaviour. And many were quick to recall how she was hardly innocent herself.
“Struggling to care about Moira being “let down†by Cain. She’s cheated on him, she’s beat on him, yet now she’s perfect and delicate because she’s ill?” said one annoyed fan.
“To hear Moira talk, you’d think she was Mother Teresa! She’s having a go at Cain for assaulting someone, when she’s done exactly the same thing & even killed Emma Barton! Talk about pot, kettle & black,” said another.
“I seem to be alone in my dislike of Moira. She’s done some horrible things to people over the years – including Cain. I wish they’d just write her annoying character out of Emmerdale,” wrote a third.

‘Grow up’ say fans as Cain’s moping continues
This comes after another week of moping for Cain. He’s been struggling with his conscience since sleeping with Ruby – driving those around him away with his pouting and unpredictable behaviour.

Fans of Emmerdale have been left fuming at recent developments between Moira and Cain – as she received some shocking news, and he continued to spiral out of control.
Learning that she would have to undergo radiotherapy due to the risk of her tumour returning, Moira was in a state. She reached out to Cain in her time of need, but he let her down – smashing into Jai’s car and assaulting a police officer.
As the episode ended, Cain was in a prison cell, and Moira was fuming – telling him not to bother coming home. This comes as Cain continues to struggle with his guilt over cheating on her with Ruby a few weeks ago.
Cain and Moira’s marriage isn’t in a good place, then – and fans really aren’t happy about it.

Emmerdale fans slam writing as Moira and Cain marriage hits the rocks
Writing on social media as last night’s episode aired, fans shared their frustration at the sorry state of affairs (no pun intended) between Cain and Moira.
“Wish they wouldn’t do this to Cain n Moira let them be happy it’s getting too gloomy,” wrote one fan under a post on Instagram.
“Will somebody sack these writers and bring new talented ones in. Not everybody has to have bad relationships. Why can’t you leave Moira and Cain alone? They’re good together. You always have to spoil a good thing,” bemoaned a second.
“What ruined this storyline was the Cain and Ruby scene. Cain should’ve been there for Moira and perhaps Ruby could bump off her old man. He deserves it,” another viewer threatened.
“I’m wondering if the writer(s) just doesn’t like happy couples. Doing her best to split Ruby and Caleb. Now splitting up one of the nicest couples Cain and Moria. Honestly it could be renamed Misery Dale,” a fourth joked.
Has the soap gone too far in its treatment of Cain and Moira?

He may have ruled the Emmerdale roost for over 20 years, but fans think Cain Dingle’s time is done – and Ross Barton needs to replace him. This comes amid a series of recent struggles for Cain, who has been in crisis since cheating on Moira with Ruby.
Terrified that he’d lose his wife to the brain surgery on her tumour, Cain spiralled out of control. Getting drunk, beating up Jimmy and sleeping with Ruby, it was quite the day for Cain.
Ever since, Cain’s been a tormented man. Last night, he wound up on the wrong side of the law. This came as he smashed up Jai’s car and assaulted a police officer. As a result, he wasn’t there for Moira in her time of need – who had been undergoing radiotherapy to prevent the tumour from coming back.
And, as Cain’s torment continues tonight, fans have had enough.

Make way for Ross: Emmerdale fans are done with ‘washed-up’ Cain
Writing on social media, fans shared their thoughts on Cain’s recent behaviour. And many agreed that the time has come for Cain to make way for the new alpha male in town – Ross Barton.
“Time to feud Ross with Cain. And Ross makes Cain leave. It has to happen, Ross needs to take the big spotlight now Cain’s washed up,” wrote one fan on Instagram.
“Cain enough is enough now! Stop making it harder for yourself and man up! Stop,” demanded another.
“Such a disappointing story line. Cain would be there for Moira. stop with this nonsense now please,” said a third, not buying Cain’s recent fall from grace.
Ross, by contrast, has been the talk of the town since returning to the village – beating up Mack, getting April kidnapped, and inspiring a conspiracy of haters (Charity, Caleb and Marlon).
He’s going nowhere soon – is it time for Ross to claim his crown as top dog in the village?

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.

Anthony laid into Caleb – who threatened to knock his teeth out (Credit: ITV)
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…

Last month in Emmerdale, Cain Dingle cheated on wife Moira with Ruby Fox-Miligan, but fans are tiring of his guilty conscience.
Cain has been avoiding spending time with Moira as he feels guilty over what occurred. Instead, he has been finding various jobs that need doing in order to not spend time alone with his wife.
But fans have had enough and are calling for Cain to “grow up”.
The same episode saw Cain’s story told in reverse chronological order. We saw him with bloodied hands while drinking whiskey. As the clock went back further, viewers were shocked when Cain and his sister-in-law Ruby were shown putting their clothes back on.
As the clock went back again, it was revealed that the pair of them had argued, before that blew over into passion.
While both parties are eager to pretend the fling never happened, it’s Cain who is struggling with the guilt the most. He has been making excuses to not see Moira – whether that be picking up the kids or farm duties.

Emmerdale fans sick of Cain and his guilt
The storyline hasn’t proved popular with fans, who hate that Cain cheated. They are also sick of him feeling sorry for himself.
“Cain’s guilty conscience gets worse,” wrote one fan on X, while another added: “Oh ffs Cain grow the hell up and quit with the poor me guilt. If [you] tell Moira what you did it’s not gonna help her, it’s gonna bloody ruin her.”
“Every cute moment of Cain and Moira makes me want to fire every writer in the room because why did you make him cheat,” a third viewer wrote. Another added: “The guilt is written all over Cain.”
With Cain’s guilt so obvious, it’s surely only a matter of time before Moira learns about Ruby. “The guilt really is getting to Cain now, I don’t think it will be much longer before Moira finds out the truth,” agreed a fan. Another quipped: “I know Moira has a brain injury, but even that wouldn’t stop her from seeing Cain’s guilt.”
