Emmerdale viewers predict dark twist as Ethan’s exit ‘sealed’ after chilling threat

Emmerdale viewers are convinced that things are not going to end well for Ethan after Ruby’s chilling threat.

As fans know, the Dingles are seeking revenge on Ethan after drink driving and crashing his car leaving their son Nicky hospitalised.

At the time Ethan pulled Nicky from the car and then fled the scene without calling for help. Since the crash, Nicky has suffered a serious head injury and is currently in a coma.

During tonight’s episode of the ITV hit soap it was revealed that Nicky would need to spend more time in hospital so doctors could stop the bleeding in his brain.

Back at the village, It's clear Ruby and Caleb are desperate for Ethan to pay for what he did. At first Ethan wasn’t keen on showing his face outside but dad Charles encouraged him to leave the house but his advice backfired as he bumped into Ruby and Caleb.

The couple were not happy to see Ethan walking around the village like nothing happened and it didn’t take long for them to go over and confront him.

At first Ethan tried to apologise but both Caleb and Ruby did not accept it. Once they left, things took a dark turn as Caleb said he wanted Ethan to "suffer".

Ruby lashed out and said: "If Nicky doesn't pull through he's going to wish he was dead." Viewers watching at home insist Ethan is in danger as Ruby seems to be plotting their revenge plan.

@penniless_poet Tweeted: “Ruby is going to do a Cain and have him tied up in a barn somewhere before you know it #Emmerdale.”

@mikepriestley13 said: “Ruby making death threats about Ethan. She’s in the frame for the hit and run on him later in week or next week. #Emmerdale.”

@SG902110 commented: “Oooo Ruby and Ethan #Emmerdale.” While @DonnatellaSpace added: “For someone who's feeling remorseful about the crash, Ethan's doing a lot of walking around the village. The Dingles are hypocrites but Ethan's just begging for a beatdown now #Emmerdale.”
