After weeks of intense planning to con Kim Tate, Caleb’s masterplan finally unravelled on Thursday’s instalment of Emmerdale, when Kim revealed how she had uncovered Caleb’s scheme and stopped the businessman in his tracks.
At the end of Wednesday’s episode, Kim caught Caleb red handed trying to clear out her bank account online, after his son Nicky had backed out of a plan to marry Gabby Thomas, the mother of Kim’s grandchild.
Realising he needed to up his game and act fast to avoid being rumbled, Caleb set to work trying to steal every penny he could, but sadly Kim was already one step ahead and revealed she had discovered his true intentions with a little help from Cain Dingle.
Picking up where things left off on Thursday, Kim revealed how exactly she had picked up on Caleb’s plan after spotting several clues along the way. "You were just trying too hard Caleb. Call it a sixth sense, I had this little voice in my head telling me to be careful. I’ve got where I am today listening to that little voice," Kim told him.
Caleb however insisted he was innocent as he implored her: "I was trying to help you.” However it wasn’t long before Caleb changed his tune and admitted once and for all who he was and what he was trying to accomplish.
Gleefully informing Caleb of where he had slipped up, Kim told the long-lost-Dingle: "Every time you solved a problem at the drop of a hat, the voice got louder. Screwing over your new family to get the farm, I was impressed. That naughty little move set a few alarm bells off for Will.”
"I just thought you were another flashy boy trying to get a piece of the pie," she mused. "The funny thing is what finally gave you away. The song. A song I’d been listening to by myself and not long after you were happily singing away. Forever in blue jeans."
Incredulous at having being caught out by a song, Caleb scoffed: ”Oh my god are you actually serious?"
Kim then continued to reveal how she had deliberately orchestrated a sting after suspecting Caleb was lying to her, as she added: ”Remember me insisting on meeting your architect? With hindsight that was another mistake. When he failed to correct the deliberate mistakes on the plan, I did indulge myself a little. Does the name Seth Armstrong mean anything to you?"
Confirming that he was the man at the planning office Caleb had spoken to and that "everything was cleared by him," Kim then chimed in to say: "Though I imagine you must have found it quite difficult, given that he’s been dead for 20 years. That was when I knew.”
She warned him: "I still wasn’t sure what your angle was. Will followed your man today, Adrian. They enjoyed a little chat. Very illuminating. I can’t fault your ambition but you were never going to get your grubby little hands on my money."
