Emmerdale: John to frame Tracy for Nate’s m.u.r.d.e.r as she points the finger at Cain

In the aftermath of tonight’s episode of Emmerdale (Monday, June 6) John Sugden lays the groundwork to frame Tracy for Nate’s m.u.r.d.e.r. Already annoyed after she mentioned his name to the police, he was keen to clear Cain’s name.

Settling upon grieving Tracy as his stooge, John sets a plan into action…

John plotted to frame Tracy in Emmerdale tonight

As the last person to speak to him alive, the police questioned John over Nate’s last movements. While covering his own back was John’s number one priority, he was also desperate to get Cain out of trouble.

Back in the village, Sam was dismayed to hear that Tracy had been spreading rumours about Cain. Sam confronted her in the cafe, where she remained firm in her position that Cain had k.i.l.l.e.d Nate.

However, Cain soon hit back with an accusation of his own, suggesting that maybe it had been Tracy who done it. Back in the village, John simmered at the knowledge that Tracy had mentioned his name to the police.

As a vicious confrontation ensued, John denied ever telling Tracy that Nate had gone to Shetland. Feeling gaslit, she lashed out at Belle and those around her, making herself look even more guilty.

Later, Cain confided in John, revealing his upset and frustration at being blamed for Nate’s m.u.r.d.e.r. Sympathetic John reassured Cain that the police would move on soon enough… cooking up a plan of his own.

Tracy has some tough questions to answer in Emmerdale spoilers

In Emmerdale spoilers for Wednesday (June 11), the police arrive on Tracy’s doorstep with a warrant. She tells them it’s pointless, but is proved wrong when they discover Nate’s phone in Frankie’s playhouse.

At the station, she’s shocked to hear that there’s no record of the removal man who took Nate’s things to Shetland either.

Can Tracy clear herself of Nate’s m.u.r.d.e.r, or has John succeeded in stitching her up?
