In Emmerdale tonight, Steph Miligan confronted her parents about the gun she found in their safe. They were quick to come up with a story, but Steph still had doubts.

Elsewhere, Dylan insisted to Marlon he wanted to see April one last time before heading off to rehab.

Here’s what happened in Emmerdale tonight (Wednesday, March 12).

Steph demanded answers… again

During Tuesday’s episode, Steph found a gun in her parents’ safe. Wednesday’s episode saw her confront her parents over the discovery.

Ruby was concerned when Caleb revealed that Steph had claimed to have heard from Anthony. Caleb told Ruby not to worry, that he had sorted a distraction for Steph – just as she walked in.

He handed her a flight ticket to San Francisco, so she could go see her brother Nicky. Steph thanked him but said they had stuff to sort out first, before blindsiding her parents by pulling out the gun.

Steph demanded to know if it was used on her grandad. Ruby and Caleb insisted it hadn’t been, before Caleb revealed he’d bought it because he had planned to kill Cain. “I bought the gun and I went to the farm. I was gonna kill him,” he told her. Claimed it was the day after limo crash, but he saw sense and didn’t pull the trigger.

Steph eventually handed the gun back. But later, she stupidly told Ruby she was going to see Cain to check their story.

At the farm, Cain repeated Caleb’s version of events. For good measure and to get Steph on side, he added: “That’s your dad all over. Coward, right?”

After she left, in a surprise to no one, we saw Caleb hiding round the corner.

Steph had a plan in Emmerdale tonight

Caleb told Ruby that he thought they were safe from Steph’s digging now. Ruby couldn’t help but panic that Steph was getting close to the truth though, as she said: “She believes at least one of us killed him. She is right, she just doesn’t know why. And If she ever finds out…”

Caleb insisted that Steph wouldn’t find out. Meanwhile, Steph was in the bar, outlining her next move to Ross Barton.

Steph shared all about the gun she had found and said she now knew Cain was covering for her parents too. She continued to insist that she was right about her parents hiding something.

She then revealed to Ross that she was considering going to the police. Ross was shocked and warned her they’d be no going back if she decided to do that. But Steph wasn’t concerned and told Ross: “If they have killed my grandfather, they deserve to get what’s coming.” Will she go through with it?

Dylan said goodbye to April

Marlon headed to the hospital to pick Dylan up, but was concerned when Dylan asked to see April before going to the rehab facility.

Dylan knows that Marlon really took the ketamine from the surgery and set him up, but he promised he wouldn’t say anything to April.

Marlon reluctantly took Dylan home. April immediately went in on Dylan and pushed him away as she shouted about all the trouble he caused. As she told him he could have cost Rhona her business and that her dad trusted him, a guilty Marlon interrupted to defend Dylan, telling her to go easy on him.

When Dylan revealed he was off to rehab, April eventually calmed down. April was even more surprised that her dad was paying for it – but nobody clocked on that the reason might be guilt.

Dylan told April he didn’t want any visitors. “This is goodbye” he said, before Marlon took him to the centre.

Later, Marlon comforted his daughter as April cried in his arms. Is this the last we’ll see of Dylan or will he return to expose Marlon’s lies?

Someone was watching Manpreet in Emmerdale tonight

Manpreet was on edge every time she got a text message, so Ella suggested a distraction. A picnic – in the freezing cold weather…

Manpreet continued to be distracted though and kept looking at her phone.

While sitting at the picnic table, Billy Fletcher run past, before Tracy strolled by on her phone – Is Emmerdale dropping suspects?

Manpreet then got a message which read: “Nice day for a picnic.” Realising that the blackmailer was watching her, Manpreet begun to panic.

Is it Tracy or Billy, or someone else?

Vanessa discovered Suzy had cheated

Mary went to see Vanessa, who was visibly upset. She told Mary she was looking through Suzy’s phone. No good can ever come of that, Vanessa.

Vanessa showed Mary a chat conversation between Suzy and Leyla where Suzy said she was having doubts and was thinking of leaving Vanessa. A reply from Leyla read: “Don’t throw your life away over a stupid kiss.”

There was no mention of who Suzy had kissed, but when Tracy arrived, she said they just had to discover who Leyla and Suzy were talking about and ask them for the full story. Will they discover Mary’s secret?
