Elsewhere, Cain appeared to be emulating his wife’s alcoholic behaviour and taking out his anger on his kids while taking a swig of beer. Thank goodness Chas was there to save the day… Here’s everything that happened in Emmerdale on Friday, August 23. Ella was released from custody after Wendy dropped the charges (Credit: ITV) Emmerdale tonight: Confusion over Ella Mandy, Manpreet and Liam started the episode by discussing (over a coffee and a cake, of course) why Ella acted out with a huge carrot cake. Previous misdeeds aside, the trio couldn’t figure out why Ella acted supposedly out of character. Ever the voice of reason, Manpreet emphasised that she probably felt more comfortable in prison than around them due to her previous residencies there. This appeared to give Mandy a wave of understanding. article continues below Read all the latest spoilers Mastermind Liam thought it would be a smart idea to go straight to the source and try to get Wendy to drop her new charges. He and Manpreet headed straight over to hers. Despite her badly bruised nose, Liam and Manpreet tried to plead Ella’s case to Wendy by telling she simply missed prison. Wendy was not sure and tried to back out of their request. She quickly ushered her colleagues out of the door to get back to resting. Emmerdale tonight: Ella’s great escape Later, Ella sat in an interview room and admitted she was wrong. Her lawyer (bless her) tried to guide her towards innocence, but in true Ella-fashion, she decided to speak her mind. She then learned that Liam had chose her solicitor, which left her confused. “They’re gonna bang me up,” Ella added after her I-don’t-care interview performance. To her supposed dismay, she was released after Wendy decided to drop the charges. Upon her arrival back in the village, Mandy and Liam were delighted to see her. Liam offered her his spare room on a friendship basis. When they arrived, Liam grew extremely awkward and said Ella can leave her bra wherever she wants (Oh, Liam…) To avoid more embarrassing underwear talk, he headed to The Woolpack to pick up two lasagnes and stick toffee pudding (good choice!) but bumped into Wendy. After hearing Ella had moved in with Liam, Wendy grew angry and accused him of pressuring her to drop the charges (we don’t blame her!) Will was worried when Dawn brought news (Credit: ITV) Emmerdale tonight: Will’s lies Will undertook his grandfather duties and looked after Clemmie. He encouraged them to go for a picnic, but Clemmie said she missed her Granny Rose. To this, Will gave a hard blow and explained that she’s never coming back. Later, when Dawn returned she revealed that Evan might need a bone marrow transplant. To do this, the whole family needed to be tested to see if they are matches. The whole family means… the whole family. Will became physically uncomfortable at the mention of Rose’s name and said she probably wouldn’t even do it if she even bothered to reply. Dawn did not listen and stormed off saying that it needed to be done. Later, Will did some furniture repositioning to reveal he had Rose’s phone. He took it out and sent an undercover message to Dawn pretending to be Rose. He wrote that she is ‘never coming back.’ The plot quickly thickened, however, when Dawn received a mystery call where she told Billy that her father fell for all of her lies. She then promised his downfall… Does she actually know what happened to Rose? Emmerdale tonight: Where’s Moira? Cain appeared to wake up on the wrong side of the bed after Moira went AWOL. He shouted at the kids after they asked for chocolate spread over a cheese sarnie (I mean, which child wouldn’t?) and told them to put up with it. Kyle and Isaac refused to put up with it and said it wasn’t their fault Moira wasn’t speaking to him. Good for them… Later when playing video games and after Cain had wiped off the pie on his face, the kids revealed that Moira would not be returning that night as she sent them a message. Cain got angry again, but Chas told him to calm down and apologised on their behalf. She warned him not to fall into Moira’s alcoholic tendencies after he took a huge swig of beer. Jai and Laurel continued their feud (Credit: ITV) Emmerdale tonight: Jai’s woes Jai and Laurel experienced a chill in mid-summer after they shared a frosty exchange where Laurel packed all of his furniture into a moving truck and took it to his new place. After angry comments about financial issues, Laurel quickly changed her views and asked him to be amicable. After considering it, Jai seemed to ignore her request. Caleb, who always seems to seize the perfect moment, cornered him later as he was unpacking. He first insulted him for looking poor, to which Jai seemed strangely delighted. The perfect look for a divorcee, so he claimed. Caleb then emphasised that Jai should invest his money into land they were hoping to buy. He claimed Jai would be rich within a year. Will the proposition go well? Or is this a trap for Jai and his money?
