00:30Don't you dare come in here!
00:32No, you won't.
00:33Yes, I will.
00:34I'll throw you in a cell, just like they did after Gemma.
00:38Because you're not sane, Belle.
00:41Can you ever get anything right?
00:43Fine!
00:58Belle!
00:59Oh, thank goodness.
01:02Emilia said Tom came up here.
01:04He did, he was...
01:06Hey, so where is this scumbag now?
01:11Belle?
01:16What happened?
01:18I thought I was gonna die.
01:23What did Tom do, lovey?
01:26He was... he was chasing me and he...
01:29he broke the door down.
01:32He was gonna shoot me.
01:34You what?
01:35I didn't have a choice.
01:36About what?
01:37You're not making much sense.
01:40Killing him.
01:44I've killed him, Lydia.
01:49Hi, it's me again.
01:50Look, I messed up.
01:51Sam, Lydia and Vinnie know that you're going up there,
01:53so please, Tom, just give me a call back when you can, yeah?
01:58What are you doing?
01:59I'm warning him that they're on a warpath.
02:02If they know that he's up there, then he'll never hear the end of it.
02:05Yes, for good reason.
02:07Come on.
02:08Why do you think you had to trick Belle into seeing him?
02:11I need to phone Lydia and check Belle's OK.
02:13Oh, Belle's all right.
02:15Will you please just quit this flipping melodrama?
02:17Everything all right?
02:18Yeah, it's fine.
02:20Right, hear me?
02:22Oh, my mam text back, by the way.
02:24Yes, she's fine to pick up Esther, now Lydia got.
02:26Well, I did say I'd go up.
02:27Yeah, and I said I'd rather we stay here and chat.
02:31Answer phone.
02:32Look, spare us the lecture, all right?
02:34Tom's not some psycho, and why are you all on Belle's side?
02:37You know what? I'm going to phone him up again
02:39and put him on speaker so you can hear for yourself what he's up against.
02:42She's ruining his life.
02:44She's ruining his life.
03:10PHONE RINGS
03:15PHONE RINGS
03:17It's OK, love.
03:19We're all here now and we're not going anywhere,
03:21so whatever you think you did...
03:24What, you don't believe me?
03:26I believe you've been under an incredible amount of stress.
03:33Can you tell us what happened?
03:37He said he knew that I was...
03:39..going to the police.
03:41So he started hitting me.
03:48Go on, love.
03:51He'd locked the door.
03:53And I thought,
03:55if I can just get to Sam's gone, I...
03:58I can scare him, I can make him stop.
04:03Then what?
04:06Then I locked myself in the flat.
04:09But he just smashed through.
04:12And he kept walking towards me and he had this look in his eyes.
04:17And the gun?
04:19I tried to pull the trigger.
04:21And it wouldn't work.
04:23And he was mocking me and then...
04:25And then he had the gun and...
04:27And he was about to use it and...
04:31And then I saw Ruth.
04:35Saw what?
04:37Saw what?
04:42The axe.
04:47I stuck it right in his back and he...
04:49He just collapsed.
04:51God, you poor, poor girl.
04:57Any love?
04:59Er...
05:01He's, erm...
05:03He's dead.
05:06What's going to happen to me now?
05:18Quite a day, eh?
05:20Why all the urgency?
05:23This isn't about being disloyal.
05:25Why is he not answering?
05:27Emilia, if you know something, you're not telling me.
05:30I just told him that Belle were going to police.
05:33You couldn't have her spreading more lies about him.
05:35Oh, my God.
05:37I'm sorry, but I don't see the big deal about this.
05:39No, of course you don't.
05:41Cos this is what Tom's good at.
05:43Fooling people. Manipulating them.
05:46I've got to get up there.
05:48Right, well, I'm coming too, so I can watch you eat your words when you realise that you're wrong.
05:51No, you're not. You are going to go home and you're going to stay there.
05:53Amy, I'm not a kid.
05:55Then stop acting like one.
05:57Please, Emilia.
05:59Just do it.
06:04I really am sorry.
06:06I was just so scared.
06:08I didn't know what he was going to do to me.
06:10It's all right, love. Just take a deep breath.
06:13It's Tom that's driven you to this.
06:16Yeah, but there's still a body up in flat.
06:19We can't just leave it there, can we?
06:21Even if he isn't worth spitting on.
06:24Yeah, so we call the police, tell them that Belle was acting in self-defence.
06:28Tom would have killed her.
06:30Tom would have killed her, eh?
06:32No, we aren't getting our stories properly straight first, we don't.
06:35No, stop.
06:37Look, there'll be no story, no police.
06:39We don't call anyone.
06:43So if we're not telling the police, that means...
06:46I know what it means, Sam.
06:48Just think about it, though. We know what she's been through.
06:51Tom's got an axe in his back.
06:53Yeah, because he was a monster and she had to stop him.
06:55I mean, it might look like he was running away.
06:58That Belle attacked him from behind without being provoked.
07:01It's hardly a cut-and-dry self-defence case, is it?
07:04What are you saying?
07:05I'm not saying anything.
07:06Anyone who knows you won't doubt what happened, love, but the police don't.
07:10And they don't know what Tom's capable of, either.
07:12I mean, do you really think Belle looks like the murdering type?
07:16Oh, sorry, no, erm...
07:18That was a really stupid thing to say.
07:20You know, what happened to Gemma, that wasn't...
07:22Yeah, just forget I said it, sorry.
07:24Yeah, nice one.
07:25I should never have waited to go to the police.
07:27No, love, this is not your fault.
07:29We just need to decide what we're gonna do now.
07:35What, as if, you know, we hide the body or not?
07:38No. No, we can't.
07:41Belle needs protecting, whatever it takes.
07:45Look, this don't make sense.
07:47You went crackers at me when I went off to Craig.
07:49This isn't the same.
07:50Plus, don't you think she's been through enough?
07:52Just look at her, Sam!
07:53I'm sorry, right, but why are we assuming the worst here?
07:56I mean, all the stuff we're talking about might not happen, might it?
07:59I mean, Belle's clearly got injuries, so that's evidence for starters.
08:02All right, yeah, and what if the police just say
08:04all that proves is that things got physical between her and Tom?
08:07Well, we'll say it's not the truth.
08:09And you're really confident that they'll believe you
08:11once they hear she's a dingo?
08:13That in the meantime they're not gonna lock her up
08:15whilst it's dragged through the courts?
08:17Belle's mental health spirals.
08:18Are you sure that we can take that risk?
08:22What, and concealing her body, that's just risk-free, is it?
08:25No, but it's better than the alternative.
08:29We need him off our land so we can look after Belle.
08:33OK, right, well, say we all agree.
08:36How do you explain Belle's injuries, then?
08:38Because if they know he was violent, that makes her more of a suspect, doesn't it?
08:41It gives her actual motive.
08:43All right.
08:45We agree to keep quiet,
08:49hide Belle's injuries and come up with a cover story.
08:53Aye.
08:55So no-one would know what a psycho he was.
08:57He'd get away with what he did to her.
09:00Hardly, Sam. The man's dead.
09:06OK, so we're all in agreement we get rid of him for Belle.
09:24Right, it's probably best to reverse the van
09:28up to the bottom of the steps here.
09:31We'd best see what we're dealing with first.
09:34Can we not just call Cain? He's way better at this stuff.
09:37He'll be halfway to Scotland by now, probably.
09:40And besides, no call, no trail.
09:42Aside from stacks of Tom's DNA up there.
09:44It's times like this I wish we still had the pigs.
09:46Best clean-up team you can get.
09:48Sam!
09:49What? I'm talking to you.
09:51Sam!
09:52What? I'm just trying to think practically.
09:54These are cleaning to me. It's what I do.
09:57Anyway, right, I'll leave you two to crack on.
10:01I'll go back inside and check on Belle.
10:03Lydia!
10:05What's she doing here?
10:06Probably worried about Belle.
10:08What are you going to say?
10:09I don't know. I'm thinking.
10:11Amy!
10:12Love, everything all right?
10:14I wanted to check how Belle was after you rushed off.
10:17Erm, only Amelia.
10:19She told Tom about Belle going to the police.
10:22I see.
10:23So did he come up here?
10:25No, thankfully.
10:27Maybe he lost his nerve, eh?
10:29Finally packed himself off for good like he should have done months ago.
10:33I reckon.
10:34I reckon living up.
10:36But Belle's OK?
10:38Yeah, as can be expected.
10:41She's, er, she's having a nap.
10:43After going for a walk with Charity.
10:45After going for a walk with Charity.
10:48I think the stress of everything have let us, taken its toll.
10:52I'm not surprised.
10:54Listen, about going to the police later.
10:56I mean, assuming Belle still wants to.
10:59Yeah, I'll get her to text you.
11:02Let you know what she's feeling up to.
11:04Don't let us keep you.
11:06Yeah.
11:07I'll speak to her later.
11:12We shouldn't be doing this. It's nuts.
11:14What?
11:15Protecting a vulnerable young girl that's already been through hell?
11:18What do you think Zac had want us to do?
11:21She's right, Vinnie. What else could we do?
11:24A few deep breaths, love. You'll be fine.
11:26What, can it be now before I bottle it, yeah?
11:28Oh, no, I was going to get us afternoon tea and scones first.
11:31I'll go check on Belle.
11:33Good luck, both of you.
11:45After you.
11:46Oh, yeah, ta.
11:55Oi.
11:56I thought you said you were here.
11:57What?
12:15Try not to mess with it, love.
12:19He's gone.
12:21What?
12:22Tom, the flat's empty, which means he's alive, right?
12:26I don't understand.
12:27You said you saw him, that he was dead.
12:29Yeah, apart from he can't have been.
12:31Because folk what a carked it, don't get up and wander off.
12:33Not on the table.
12:35It's not stable.
12:36It's not stable.
12:37It's not stable.
12:38It's not stable.
12:39It's not stable.
12:40It's not stable.
12:41It's not stable.
12:42Not on the table.
12:43It's not stable.
12:44It's not stable.
12:45It needs washing and burying.
12:46That can wait, you need to find Tom.
12:48Well, do what exactly?
12:49Finish him off?
12:50Look, just stop him from going to the police.
12:53Buy him some time.
12:54Go on.
12:55He can't have got far.
12:56Right, well, lock the door.
12:57And-and door open until we get back.
13:12Oh!
13:18Tom? Are you OK? Tom, can you hear me?
13:27Tom?
13:30Tom?
13:33I'm just going to put you in the recovery position and get you some help.
13:38Yeah, hi. Ambulance, please.
13:42Yeah, thank you.
13:45Yeah, now!
13:49Oh!
13:54Did Amelia come back in here? She's just not at home.
13:57No, I haven't seen her since earlier.
13:59Although it was pretty obvious that you two had some kind of beef with each other.
14:03Liam, hi.
14:04An accident.
14:08What's wrong with him, is it? It's Tom.
14:12OK, we'll meet you up there.
14:17Tom's collapsed. Liam's with him. There's an ambulance.
14:20What happened? He doesn't seem to know, but...
14:24..he's lost a lot of blood.
14:28I mean, to be honest, I think he's got this fire in his state.
14:31So where is he, then? And who knows how bad he really is?
14:34I mean, you thought he were flaming dead when he went.
14:36You didn't see him, Sam!
14:38Oh, blimey! What?
14:41Oh, no.
14:43You don't suppose there's any chance it's not him?
14:45What do you think?
14:47And why's Liam there? Who cares? Least of us would, is that Sam, innit?
14:51I knew it. I knew we should have just told the truth.
14:54So now what?
14:56Well, I can't just stand here. They might have seen us.
14:59Might have seen us.
15:01We've got to go over there. Why do you want to do that?
15:03Just come on, write him. Act shocked.
15:06I am flaming shocked.
15:08Liam!
15:10What's going on? Is that Tom?
15:12Yeah, I'm afraid so. Listen, I've called Jimmy,
15:14but I wasn't sure whether or not to call Bell in the circumstances.
15:17Why are they putting him on the ambulance?
15:20He's got a hefty laceration in his back.
15:23I've no idea how. I just saw him collapsed.
15:25So you don't know what's happened?
15:27He's too woozy and weak to talk.
15:29Listen, I should go in the ambulance. I'm sorry to leave you both here.
15:31Is he going to die?
15:32Right now, we just need him to get to hospital
15:34so we can get as much blood into him as we can.
15:36Do you reckon he'll be able to tell at the hospital?
15:38What's happened to him, I mean?
15:40Let's hope he makes a speedy recovery and then he can tell us himself.
15:49So what now?
15:50We'll go to hospital and make sure he doesn't say anything.
15:53Ow!
15:54I haven't got all the answers, Sam.
15:55Right, let's just get there first, yeah?
15:57Come on.
16:12Sam's just messaged, lovey.
16:17It seems that Liam's found Tom.
16:21So he's...?
16:24He collapsed in the road.
16:27He's on his way to hospital now.
16:30Right.
16:32Meaning he can make out to the police that this is all me.
16:35He can make out what he likes, love.
16:37It doesn't mean it'd stick.
16:38Why doesn't it?
16:39Because we'd move heaven and earth to prove that you're the innocent party here.
16:43Besides, they'd have to link the axe to you,
16:45prove that Tom was here, and we're already working on that.
16:48What, because we're suddenly forensic experts?
16:51I need to go to hospital.
16:52What? Why do you?
16:54I need to talk to him, I need to see if he's going to wake up, what he's going to say.
16:57No, no, there's no way. I'm not going to let you.
16:59Not here?
17:00Look, the only thing you need to worry about is your alibi.
17:04Saying that you went for a walk with charity, if anyone asks.
17:07And you haven't seen Tom for weeks, OK?
17:10Come on, love.
17:11Come inside, you're still in shock.
17:13OK, fine.
17:14OK, fine.
17:26Belle, what are you doing?
17:27Just hold her, I've got to get to hospital.
17:29Love, you're not thinking straight. Come back here.
17:32Now, please!
17:33Belle, listen to me!
17:35Belle!
17:37Belle!
17:39Belle!
17:41Belle, come on!
17:42Belle!
17:43Belle!
17:48Leo, what's happened?
17:50Erm, he's just had a CT scan.
17:52What for? What's wrong with him?
17:54So he's got a haemonyma thorax, which means he's got a collapsed lung
17:58and he's got internal bleeding around the lungs.
18:01He's going to need a chest drain to clear any air and fluid.
18:04I see.
18:05Has he said what happened? He is presumably conscious.
18:08Yeah, he's still very croggy at the minute.
18:10Very croggy at the minute.
18:11It'll be a combination of the pain and the shock and the blood loss.
18:14You didn't answer the first part.
18:17Erm, Tom's got a deep wound in his back.
18:22It's likely the hospital will need to contact the police.
18:26Sorry, how can he have been stabbed? By who?
18:28I wish I could tell you more. Let me see if I can find someone.
18:31Thanks, Liam.
18:34Well, it looks like the curse of the kings has struck again.
18:37What are you talking about?
18:39Well, that or the Dingle one, anyway.
18:41You don't mean it.
18:42Who says I don't?
18:45He was fine until he met Belle.
18:47And then a few months back, he's electrocuted out of the blue.
18:51And then Belle starts bad-mouthing him to the whole village
18:56until Cain's spoiling to beat him up.
18:59I mean, surely there's a pattern.
19:02What are they doing here?
19:05Jimmy, hi.
19:06Erm, we saw Tom getting put in an ambulance,
19:08just wondering what's happening.
19:10Is he all right?
19:12We don't know.
19:14In fact, there's a lot we don't know.
19:20Jimmy said Liam didn't know how it happened.
19:23I do.
19:24I mean, this is what Belle does.
19:26She stabs people in the back, only this time she's done it for real.
19:30Belle didn't even see Tom. Lydia said he didn't go up there.
19:33And you believed her?
19:35She's not right, Amy.
19:37And this just proves it.
19:39Where were you going?
19:40To hospital. To be there for him.
19:43Cos he's actually the victim here.
20:06That was Lydia. She's been trying to call us loads.
20:09Can't hear what they're saying.
20:11No, me neither.
20:13Cos Lydia couldn't stop it.
20:15But she can't, not in her state.
20:17All right, well, I'll let down and stop everyone getting to watch, yeah?
20:21Mr and Mrs King?
20:22Hi. Any news?
20:24We can't seem to get Tom's pain levels under control there.
20:27We're double-checking we haven't missed anything on his scan.
20:32Perhaps you'd prefer if we talk in the family room, where it's quieter?
20:36Yeah, we would. Thanks.
20:43What's going on?
20:44He should be here, that's what.
20:45What's she said to him?
20:46I don't know. That he's going to cark it up for me.
20:48That'll be the best for all of us.
20:50I need to go in there and find out what they're...
20:52No, you need to go home and let Lyds look after you.
20:54I'm begging you, Belle.
20:55If anything's right, you're going to blow everything.
20:57I already have. Haven't I, Sam?
20:59What are you talking about?
21:01If Tom dies, that's another life I've taken.
21:04How do I live with myself?
21:05Don't lose sleep over it. The bloke's a psycho.
21:08And if he survives, if he lands me in it, then my life's over.
21:14So whatever happens, I'm screwed.
21:17He's won, hasn't he?
21:19He's won, hasn't he?
21:28And remember, if you want to visit the village for yourself,
21:31you can now book onto the Emmerdale Village Tour.
21:33Details are at emmerdalevillagetour.co.uk.
21:37But we're off to the cobbles next.
21:39Stay with us for Coronation Street.
21:49Coronation Street
