Emmerdale spoilers: Cain’s return
When Cain returns from Scotland unexpectedly, he is incensed to discover Faith in his home.
He also mistakes the side effects she suffers from her chemotherapy treatment as the symptoms of a hangover.
Later, Faith mulls over whether it is wise to tell Cain the truth as part of her birthday celebrations in the Woolpack.
But, encouraged by Moira, she decides to reveal the truth and attempt to make peace after Moira indicates she has a plan to ensure Cain is present.
Cain’s reaction
Cain, however, is predictably furious when he realises he has been manipulated into showing up.
Moira keeps quiet as Cain – consumed by bitterness – launches into a tirade against his other relatives as they support Faith.
But once he makes it clear his birthday wish for her is for her to drop dead, Faith informs him of her poor health.
She tells him her cancer has returned and this time it cannot be cured.
