Episode 10094/10095 (19th September 2024)

==Plot==
Part One:
The burglar alarm isn't working at Home Farm which puts Will on edge. At the farm, Moira informs Mackenzie that the fire investigator has ruled the barn fire an accident but it'll be a miracle if the insurance company pay out. Moira is more concerned about another miracle though which leads Mack to suggest she has the surgery now. Moira isn't interested in his opinion. Will meets with Caleb to pick up the £40k in cash Caleb agreed to lend to him, but before Caleb hands over the money, he gives Will a contract. Will is so desperate he signs it without reading it. Afterwards, Will texts his blackmailer that he has the money. Cain confides in Liam that Moira has decided not to go ahead with the operation. Will informs Jimmy that the blackmailer has upped their demands to £50k so he's gone to Caleb for a loan using the haulage company as collateral. Jimmy hates the idea of having Caleb as a business partner and questions what his plan is for paying Caleb back. Will doesn't have one. Ruby has registered her mother's death and the next thing on her to do list is to contact the funeral director and her mother's solicitor. When Will returns to Home Farm, the smoke alarm begins going off. In the kitchen, he discovers a burnt chicken in the oven and no sign off Kim. At that moment, Will's phone rings. It's his blackmailer but they're using a spoof of his of his own voice. After hanging up, Will receives a text from the blackmailer with a location and the instructions "BE QUICK".
Part Two:
Will rushes to the blackmailer's location but he's held up when Lydia arrives at Home Farm for work. At Holdgate Farm, Billy quickly drops a backpack when he hears Dawn returning home. Dawn worries how they're going to afford their energy bills but Billy assures her they'll be fine for money and lies he's got PT gig. When Moira pops into the café, she gets talking to Brenda about her brain tumour. Brenda urges Moira to keep talking to Cain like she did with Bob and Gennie when she was in the same position. Brenda recalls how she didn't want the surgery either until she saw how it was affecting her loved ones. Ruby heads off to see her mother's solicitor. Brenda explains to Moira that her health issues are affecting those close to her more than she knows - Cain isn't angry at her, he's mad at the tumour. At the same time, Cain discusses the situation with Liam and asks him to speak to Moira. Liam agrees on the basis that he does it as a friend not a medical professional. Mack has to rush off to pick an ill Moses up from school leaving Moira to look after Isaac alone. As Will nativities through the woods to the blackmailer's location, he spots what looks like Kim lying motionless on the ground up ahead. He rushes over but it's really a mannequin wearing a mask of Kim's face. Blood starts pouring from the mannequin. An alarm clock goes off. Will spots a note tucked into the mannequin's jacket. It warns time's running out for Kim.
Part Three:
A frantic Will phones his blackmailer asking where to go but he gets no answer. He hears music in the distance so he decides to follow it. Jai bumps into Arthur in the café and tells him he hates the awkwardness between them but Arthur isn't interested in anything he has to say. A distressed Gail tells Ryan that her pet rat Daniel has died. Caleb informs Jai that the investment came through and the planning permission is in the bag so their project should be up and running in just over a month. At Holdgate Farm, Dawn discovers a wad of cash in the backpack Billy had earlier. Will follows the music until he comes across a freshly filled in grave and a shovel. He hears Kim's voice coming from under the mound of dirt so he starts digging. At Mulberry Cottage, Arthur meets with Lewis who he met on an dating app. Lewis has brought a bag of beer cans with him. Gail blames herself for Daniel dying as she's spent so many nights with Ryan at Tall Trees Cottage leaving her ex-boyfriend turned roommate Spud looking after the rat. Gail decides to move out. Ryan offers to make more space in the wardrobe for her but Gail would rather find her own place. Lydia is concerned about Will's odd behaviour and realises Jimmy knows what it's about. Ryan is upset Gail would rather get her own place instead of moving in with him but he soon manages to talk her round. Lydia is alarmed to learn Will is being blackmailed. When Caleb returns home, Ruby informs him they are co-executors of her mother's will. Ruby doesn't understand why her mother would trust her with her money when she hated her. She also wonders why he mum didn't call her earlier. As Moira and Isaac are playing, Moira has another seizure. Will's digging eventually uncovers a coffin bearing his own name. He removes the lid and finds a walkie-talkie inside which is which is the source of Kim's voice. As Will shouts for Kim, Kim emerges from the trees and hits him over the head with a shovel.
Part Four:
As a confused Will lies in the coffin, he questions what's going on. Kim comments he dug himself a hole and now he's lying in it both metaphorically and literally. She reveals she's his blackmailer and she knows what happened with Rose. Cain returns home to find a terrified Isaac sitting with an unconscious Moira. Dawn summons Billy home and confronts him about the money. Billy lies he's been saving up for a while and he was going to use it to book them a surprise holiday although Dawn would rather they spent the money on the bills first. After Dawn leaves, Billy phones someone and asks if they've got any more work for him, insisting he's up for whatever. A paramedic checks Moira over and explains her doctor will probably want to up the dosage of her anti-seizure medication. After the paramedics leave, Moira thanks Cain for getting her help. Cain realises Moira doesn't remember anything and reveals she was alone with Isaac when she had the seizure - it was Isaac who dialled 999. Caleb tries to suss out if Ruby being an executor of her mum's will means she'll find out Helen paid him £100k just before she died. He even offers to look at the finances to save her the bother. Ruby wonders what it would've been like to have a good mum. She thinks if she had better parents, she might've been a better parent herself as they've got one child who's who knows where and never gets in touch. Caleb insists Nicky will calm down but Ruby was talking about Stephanie. Arthur and Lewis agree to see each other again and go to kiss but they're interrupted by Jai. Arthur claims Lewis is just a friend from college but Jai knows he's lying. As Moira rests in bed on the paramedics orders, she apologises to Isaac for scaring him. Isaac questions if the seizures will keep happening, telling Moira he wants her to be okay and to be his mum for years and years. Isaac's words clearly have an effect on Moira. Will has injured his back and is unable to get out of the coffin. As he lays there, he protests sleeping with Rose meant nothing and questions if Kim is going to let Rose win. Kim isn't interested. After establishing Will doesn't have his phone in the coffin with him, Kim grabs the bag of cash and his phone and walks off, leaving him stranded.
