Emmerdale spoilers follow.
Emmerdale‘s Samson Dingle finally does the right thing next week as he takes steps to clear Matty Barton’s name.
Samson speaks to the police to change his statement following pressure from his stepmum Lydia.
This week’s episodes see Lydia realise that Samson is lying about what really happened on the day that he was stabbed at The Hide.
In follow-on scenes next week, Samson receives conflicting advice from two of his closest family members. His dad Sam encourages him to do a runner from the village, worried that he’ll face big trouble if his lies are exposed.
Lydia is disgusted by this drastic suggestion and urges Samson to face the music with the police.
Samson chooses to listen to Lydia and visits the police station to share the real story of how he was stabbed. He finally admits that it was an accident and Matty wasn’t to blame.
Sam is furious with Lydia for interfering, while other members of the Dingle family also give Lydia a hard time for wanting to involve the police.
Two Dingles who certainly aren’t complaining are Moira and Cain, who are pleased that Matty’s innocence has been confirmed at last. Moira is hopeful that Matty will be released from prison soon.
Cain’s loyalty towards Matty infuriates Sam, which ultimately leads to Sam punching Cain to the ground during a tense encounter at The Woolpack.
Despite this, Cain shows no signs of backing down. He even pays a stern visit to the Dingle house to make sure that Samson doesn’t still intend to run away.
Sam seethes over Cain’s meddling, while Samson worries about what might happen to him if he’s left alone with a vengeful Cain.
Back at the prison, Matty is left hopeful over the future when he’s told about Samson’s unexpected confession.
As Matty won’t be released immediately, he knows that he has to somehow survive in jail for a while longer.
The signs aren’t looking good, as fellow prisoner Robbo continues to goad Matty with violent threats.
Some of the other inmates also shout out transphobic comments. Alone in his cell, Matty fears for his life – will he be freed before things get any worse?
Emmerdale airs these scenes in the week commencing Monday, July 15.
After Samson’s confession, the Dingle family is in turmoil as they deal with the repercussions of his actions. Sam’s anger towards Lydia for interfering creates tension within the family, while Moira and Cain are relieved that Matty’s innocence has been confirmed.
However, Cain’s loyalty to Matty only serves to infuriate Sam further, leading to a physical altercation between the two men. Despite Sam’s aggressive reaction, Cain remains determined to ensure that Samson does not run away and face the consequences alone.
Meanwhile, in prison, Matty is faced with threats and transphobic comments from fellow inmates, leaving him fearful for his safety. As he tries to navigate this dangerous environment, he holds on to hope for his eventual release.
As the drama unfolds, viewers are left wondering if Matty will be freed before the situation escalates further. Emmerdale continues to deliver intense and emotional storylines that keep audiences captivated.
