As Cain and Chas attempted to calm panicking Ruby down, she decided to spill her guts to the police. Caleb tried to talk her out of it, working out a plan to flee to Ireland before the police could collar them both, but Ruby wouldn’t be talked out of it.

She seemingly went along with Caleb’s plan for a while but, once he’d gone to bed, left a note and snuck out of the house. She then arrived at the police station, where she admitted to k.i.l.l.i.n.g Anthony.

Is there any way back from this one?
