Emmerdale viewers were screaming at the TV as Liam Cavanagh shared the truth with Cain Dingle.
Monday's episode of the long-running soap continued to explore the fallout from Meena Jutla's reign of terror.
The evil nurse returned to the Yorkshire village last week to gatecrash Billy Fletcher and Dawn Taylor's wedding.

Meena also shot Leyla, before Liam intervened and tossed the resident villain off Humpback Bridge before she was apprehended by the police.
The serial killer was interrogated by the authorities on Friday's episode - and confessed she had killed Ben Tucker, but insisted it was in self-defence.
The police were unable to connect Meena to her other killings, but fans of the show are aware the evil nurse kept a box of mementos from her other murders.
The character, played by Paige Sandhu, has hidden the box in Cain Dingle's allotment and Liam came close to uncovering it half way through Monday's episode.
Liam has developed a close friendship with Cain recently and he confided in the character that he intentionally threw Meena off the bridge to get revenge for his daughter's killing.
Liam was digging in the allotment as he confided in the character played by Jeff Hordley - and viewers on Twitter were convinced he was about to find the box.
June said: "So everyone’s screaming at the tv “THE BOX Liam"
Donna added: "Anyone else screaming at the tv right now? Just dig the box up!"
Laura commented: "Anyone else screaming keep digging at telly"
Jodi posted: "Shouting at the tele "dig the hole liam."
Dave added: "Won’t somebody just find the box"
Estella commented : "Oh for god’s sake, Liam digs up a bit of the area where Meena’s little box of treasures is, it’s slightly showing & he stops to talk to Cain then the conversation ends & he drops the spade & storms off…"
Liam walked away before finding the box, but Leyla spotted it in the allotment at the end of the episode - and they uncovered the incriminating evidence which could bring Meena's downfall.
Emmerdale airs weeknights at 7pm on ITV and ITV Hub with an additional episode at 8pm on Thursdays
