Emmerdale - Current Episode Discussion - III

[Son of Cain]

Strange how in films and on tv, people are locked up somewhere for days and the toilet needs are never addressed ...

Presumably Lauchlan left her a bucket, but it must have been smelling pretty bad at the end. Hopefully she COULD slide her jeans from under the chain.

I don't agree with Faith taking Sarah to a grimy pub when her immune system is already weak but I think she needed some tough talking, rather than tearful pleading. And Faith has already been through cancer so she kind of knows what she's talking about.

[Son of Cain]

Was it night time when Faith and Sarah left the hospital as it was quite dark in the ward, but brighter when Debbie and the doctor were there. If so, where did they spend the night?

Can someone point Misty in the direction of San Francisco and tell her it is still 1968.

I was expecting serious injuries from the hyped crash

Frank and Megan: Well that was underwhelming, all that build-up. Though the image of them all battered and bruised was pretty funny.
Marlon: You're really disappointed you can't sit next to paddy? You've both been in relationships before, you know how this works - grow up.
Marlon and Paddy: Why does their dream film, ON BLU-RAY, look like a porno shot on a consumer grade camera, sprinkled with royalty free music?
Sarah: How do you know that wasn't Dom's sister. I see you've already mastered the Emmerdale art of seeing something through the window and making an assumption.
Mysty: I kinda liked the idea of Mysty being legitimately interested in Rodney. Don't ruin this with the old 'you're not enough for me' bollocks.
Cain: You gave the man the car without giving it a once over after a mechanic who was CLEARLY WORKING ON IT abandoned it. And now you have the gall to threaten a man after your ineptitude almost killed him. Nuh-uh. Not on.
Tracey: You really don't have anything better to do?
Ryan: Please don't do drunk scenes again, it's a nice bit of reality destruction that Ross somehow understands him.
Sarah and Debbie: This storyline is consistently miserable.
Chas and Paddy: This storyline is consistently miserable.
Beth ONE MILE RADIUS FOR GOD'S SAKE

These episodes feel very disparate. Thursdays are meant to be a larger event, where the story feels intertwined and natural - I wasn't getting that here. These could've been episodes over two nights, the rising tensions at the house party painting a backdrop and clarifying the timescale. The simple presence of too much stuff here takes away the clarity these episodes needed. Though the strength of the emotional plots, and Ross's deterioration over the double created a nice framework for the weeks ahead.

Solid but bloated

That has to be the quickest recovery from a car crash ever, considering the car was upside down. I realise they were probably wearing seat belts, but still, it looked pretty rough from the way the aftermath was filmed.

poor megan lost a shoe, scarf and sunglass lense

Vintage sports cars like that are death traps if you roll them, the roll bars are mostly ornamental and even if solid are below the head height of most in the car. Add to that probably a fixed seat belts not a modern self adjusting ones, no air bags , sharp edges on the dash and a solid fixed steering wheel with no give. Realistically they would of had a better chance of seriving if they had been thrown from the car before it rolled.

I think the whole thing was a tool to revamp Cain up as a bad boy, hes been too nice of late and the show needs an evil entity.

Feeling a bit frustrated with the show ATM, its all a bit miserable and majorly unrealistic, lets get back to the inept mass murderer scenes, I hoping he will kill off half the village before anyone notices.

Shouldn't Cain having saying these things to Ross. Getting fed up with Ross's angry chip on the shoulder attitude. He had acid thrown on his face by mistake, unpleasant and unfortunate as it is, he is going to have to accept it and live with it. Moira will not be please if she finds out Cain is threatening Frank, saying he will kill him is a little extreme.
