\n\t\tA major development (Picture: ITV)<\/p>\n
John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth<\/a>) is undoubtedly quaking in his boots as the Emmerdale moment we\u2019ve been waiting for has arrived \u2013 the body in the lake has been discovered and is about to be exhumed.<\/p>\n The question is, who is it going to be? Nate, or Anthony?<\/p>\n The terror is real for Ruby (Beth Cordingly<\/a>), Cain (Jeff Hordley<\/a>), Caleb (Will Ash), and Chas (Lucy Pargeter<\/a>) who immediately believe it\u2019s Anthony. <\/a>The body has been there for months; it fits the timescale.<\/p>\n Ruby \u2013 the one who did the actual killing \u2013 is hit the hardest, believing that the body of her father is about to tell the tale of what she did to him. Caleb hears her panic and suggests they flee, and Cain makes plans for them to run off to their Irish relatives.<\/p>\n But before they can enact their plan, Caleb finds a note \u2013 Ruby has run off to the police station to confess.<\/p>\n \t\t At the station, Ruby starts telling the officers about the years of abuse she suffered at the hands of her dad and reiterates to them that Caleb had nothing to do with Anthony\u2019s disappearance. Before she gets too far, she\u2019s interrupted \u2013 by a solicitor.<\/p>\n Chas learns of Ruby\u2019s confession and starts to lose it herself. Caleb tries to reassure her that the solicitor has a plan, just as the police arrive to question him. Chas hides the note, but they\u2019ve got some work to do to pull Ruby out of the situation she\u2019s got herself in before she exposes them all.<\/p>\n Soon though, the news filters through that the body has been identified and it\u2019s Nate<\/a> and everything is turned on its head. <\/p>\n \t\t Tracy (Amy Walsh) crumbles when she hears the news, and Cain and Moira are equally as blindsided when DC Cole arrives at the farm to tell them the same. Cain is distraught, and he\u2019s told he can\u2019t even visit his son for a goodbye as he\u2019s so badly decomposed.<\/p>\n An overwhelmed Tracy tries to think back over Nate\u2019s final days in the village<\/a> and she realises something \u2013 Cain had a huge fight with Nate the same day he died. He is now suspect number 1.<\/p>\n Cain\u2019s forced into police questioning, his least favourite activity, and what\u2019s worse is his own family start to question his side of the story.<\/p>\n \t\t \t\t\t\tFollow Metro Soaps on WhatsApp and get all the latest spoilers first!\t\t\t<\/p>\n Want to be the first to hear shocking EastEnders spoilers?
