After suspecting her husband of Anthony Fox’s involvement in his death, Ruby can no longer keep quiet.

She secretly sets up a hidden camera in the garage where Caleb usually works and eventually records him handing a bag of goods to a stranger in the dark.

The footage sends shivers down her spine. Caleb whispers: “This is the last time.”

The man replies: “I hope you keep your mouth shut.” From then on, Ruby knows: this is no longer a rumor.

In the next thrilling episode, Ruby decides to go public. She pulls Ross Milligan (Caleb’s younger brother) to her side and plays the video in the middle of the opening of the family’s new pub. The whole village is stunned by the footage. Caleb stands still, his face pale. Ruby screams: “Who else can you lie to?” – and throws the phone on the table.

The atmosphere explodes. The villagers gossip, Ross holds his head in shame, and their mother – Steph Milligan – faints. Caleb stands up, screaming: “I did everything for this family!” but no one believes his excuse.

Behind-the-scenes footage reveals that this will be the biggest turning point of the season, opening the way for the official investigation into Anthony Fox’s death. A supporting character also reveals that Anya – the woman in the warehouse – disappeared from the village just before the police arrived.

Meanwhile, Ruby panics after receiving an anonymous text message: “You messed up everything.” But she has no regrets. “If I have to choose between the truth and marriage, I choose the truth,” – Ruby says.

The episode ends with Caleb leaving the pub in the rain, the camera panning after every step, the background music suffocating. British netizens unanimously called this “Emmerdale’s breaking moment” – one of the strongest twists of the year.
