Life had been anything but easy for the couple lately. With the episode airing tonight, which is already available to view on ITVX, fans are in for a rollercoaster of emotions. As we left off, Cain Dingle had spent the night in a prison cell in Emmerdale after being arrested the day before. His aggressive behavior could have landed him in much worse trouble, but luckily PC Swirling was feeling lenient.
The reason behind his outburst? Well, it turns out that Cain has been struggling to cope since Moira's brain tumor treatment. He had a moment of weakness and made a grave mistake by getting intimate with his sister-in-law, Ruby Fox-Miligan, at the garage. This was definitely not the best way to deal with his emotions.
At this point, the sensible thing to do would have been to go straight home to Moira. However, Cain's mind was clouded with guilt for his actions and for not being there for Moira at her follow-up appointment. Instead, he headed to the Woolpack to drown his sorrows. But he didn't receive any sympathy there, with Chas telling him to go home and Mack Boyd calling him an 'embarrassment' for getting drunk in public.
Little did Cain know, Moira had received some bad news at her appointment. But when she called him from prison, she told him everything was fine. Not wanting to face the reality of his actions, Cain decided to head to the allotment instead. There, he was found by his friend Liam Cavanagh who gave him a gentle scolding for letting Moira down and for wearing a completely inappropriate jacket for the weather. Liam then took Cain back to his house for a sobering coffee before bringing him back to Butlers.
But the coffee had little effect on Cain, who was still consumed by self-pity and alcohol. Moira, understandably furious and fed up, confronted him about always putting his moods before her and not being able to focus on her own well-being. This led to Cain finally coming clean about his actions on the day of her operation and telling her that he needed to explain 'why I did what I did.'
But before he could do that, Moira dropped a bombshell. She needed radiotherapy. The tumor was an atypical meningioma and there was a chance it could come back. She had received the news all by herself, without his support, and it was incredibly difficult for her.
Feeling absolutely floored by this news, Cain promised to be there for her at every appointment from now on. But Moira had had enough. She couldn't rely on him anymore and she made the decision to face the treatment alone. Is this the end for Cain and Moira, even before the truth about him and Ruby comes out?
According to Jeff Hordley, who plays Cain, things are not looking good for the couple. Moira is not one to forgive easily and she often reacts in a volatile manner when it comes to Cain. Will their relationship survive this hurdle? Only time will tell.
