Aaron is alive, everyone knows the truth about John as fans cheer 'FINALLY it's over'

Time to save Mack

Aaron Dingle woke up from his coma in Emmerdale tonight and immediately passed on the information that John has got Mackenzie Boyd somewhere. But with the walls closing in, John did a runner.

Robert Sugden is currently behind bars, charged with a crime he did not commit. He has been screaming from the rooftops that John is deranged – and now it seems the rest of the village will finally see the truth too.

However, John jumped in a car with Cain Dingle – what is he planning next?

Aaron woke up in Emmerdale

Victoria continued to have second thoughts about John, especially when he reacted strongly to her suggestion that she go and collect some things for him from the cottage.

Victoria then noticed John’s discomfort as she mentioned Aaron being brought out of his coma.

Later, John found himself alone by Aaron’s bedside. As he told Aaron “I love you so much. I just wish it didn’t have to be this way”, it looked as if he may attempt to kill Aaron.

Chas and Liam then arrived to hear the monitor beeping. Chas feared the worst as she screamed for her son. Fortunately, Aaron was fine and the doctor told Chas and Liam that Aaron was still coming round from the coma.

When Aaron woke up, his first words were about his best friend Mack. “Mackenzie. John’s got Mackenzie,” he said, leaving Chas and Liam in shock.

Chas and Liam went in search of John, only to be told by Victoria that John had discharged himself. “Something is very very wrong,” Chas said, stating the obvious somewhat.

John did a runner

With the truth about John now out there, he was running out of time. But he isn’t admitting defeat just yet.

Bumping into Cain in the hospital, who was there to visit Aaron, John asked Cain for a favour. With Cain not aware of Aaron’s revelation, he agreed and strolled out of the hospital with John.

As they casually walked to Cain’s car, John told Cain: “If I go now, I can do what I need to do and be back before they bring him round.” John also lied that they’d delayed bringing Aaron out of his coma by a few hours.

Taking his word for it, Cain agreed to take John where he needed to go as long as he made it back to the hospital for Aaron in time.

Victoria was then seen running out of the hospital, missing the car driving off by mere seconds. Is Cain in danger?
