[Considered to be one of the best episodes of Emmerdale in a long time. Full of many surprises. Watch out for a visual update on She Wolf's site at www.emmerdale.tk.

It became apparent in this episode that Angie had been stringing Cain along all week. She did not love him. She was planning to be rid of him once and for all. The mobile phone theft was a trap. Once Cain was cornered the game should have been up and he arrested. However Cain fled the scene with fatal concequences.

As the police car (with Angie and DC Collins inside) took flight after Cain, it crashed. A devestated Cain stopped and pulled out a badly injured Anie from the wreckage (DC Collins we assume is dead).

As Angie lays dying in Cain's arms, Cain explains how he cannot live without her and he will never love anyone as much as her. He pleads with Angie to tell him that she loves him. Angie won't.

Angie's dying words are for Ollie and Marc and how much she loves them.

With Angie now dead in Cain's arms, emergency service sirens can be heard in the distance. It is time for Cain to leave if he wants to save his own neck. However the episode ends]
