Emmerdale fans think they have figured out Samson Dingle's "real plan" after he awkwardly attempted to get Craig Reed to confess to what he did to Lydia Dingle on Thursday night.
Soap watchers will recall that last week Lydia bravely told husband Sam Dingle and her family that she was raped by Craig at work with the Dingles rallying around her in support. After confronting Craig at his office, supported by Sam and Mandy, Lydia reported him to the police and then told stepson Samson, who had been working for Craig, the truth.
On Tuesday's episode, Samson was being distant with Cathy Hope at the Café as she grilled him on his behaviour to which he told the teenager that Craig had raped Lydia, which was overheard by Nicola King who went on to tell Bernice Blackstock - with the information soon spread around the village, leaving Lydia devastated, especially as Craig has been let go by the police due to a lack of evidence.

As Samson spoke to Craig, he pretended to befriend him, suggesting he could open up to him about anything. However, Craig got wind of his plan as he shut it down instantly, demanding he leave his office.
Later, Samson was forced to tell Sam and Lydia where he had been, admitting that he was trying to be "clever" as he thought Craig might give something away to incriminate him. Lydia was left stunned as she warned: "I don't want you going anywhere near him again!" However, soap watchers think they've rumbled Samson's real plan and that he headed into the office to secure CCTV work footage, which could be used as evidence against Craig.
