Will Taylor (Dean Andrews) is like a child who just doesn’t want to hear the word no. And when he hears it for the final time in Emmerdale, he behaves exactly like a child.
He has some half-baked hope that he and Kim (Claire King) can somehow put the whole cheating-on-her-with-Dawn’s-birth-mum, her-burying-him-in-the-woods thing behind them.
Oh, and he somehow plans to forget that Kim slept with her financial adviser, who Will knocked him out. These two are perfect for each other, it’s a wonder they haven’t sorted things out sooner.
So, ever the optimist, he still believes they can fix things with mediation.
Imagine his surprise then, when, instead, Kim slaps him with an offer – she’ll hand him £100,000 to get out of her life for good. It’s a tasty amount of cash, but not what he expected at all. His hopes of a reconciliation are dashed.
A hundred grand is far from what Will has his heart set on – if he can’t have his marriage back, he’ll suck the life out of his marriage instead.
When Dawn (Olivia Bromley) confides in him about her concerns around Billy (Jay Kontzle), Will makes a grand statement – soon she’ll never have to worry about money again.
He plans to rinse Kim for everything she’s got. He’s got revenge in mind.
As if by magic, the next day, Kim is confronted by a hooded figure who attempts to steal her car.
The attempted robber makes a run for it and soon they are long gone. But they haven’t got away with it. Kim knows exactly who is behind it and is ready for them.
She slaps them with an ultimatum, and they are at huge risk. She also has her own plans for Will. Has he once again badly underestimated his wife?
