We’re still not over yesterday’s huge Emmerdale<\/a> twist. Not only did we discover that Bear Wolf (Joshua Richards) was alive, but also that he was the one who killed<\/a> twisted Ray Walters (Joe Absolom).<\/p>\n

His reign of terror may be over, but the turmoil continues for Paddy Dingle (Dominic Brunt) and Dylan Penders (Fred Kettle), who witnessed the murder.<\/p>\n

In the moments prior, Ray had grabbed Dylan and dragged him into Tenant House, before launching a vicious attack on Paddy. Little did they realise, presumed dead Bear had made his way to the village from captivity.<\/p>\n

\"Ray's<\/p>\n

We finally know who killed Ray (Joe Absolom).\u00a0ITV<\/p>\n

Enraged, he employed some of his old wrestling moves to tackle the crook to the ground, before squeezing the life out of him.<\/p>\n

Paddy and Dylan cried out for him to stop, but it was too late.<\/p>\n

In today’s episode, Bear was in disbelief at his actions, and seemed genuinely distraught about Ray’s death. After all, he’s suffering with Stockholm Syndrome<\/a>, and believed that Ray and Celia were helping him, keeping a roof over his head, and giving him a job on their farm.<\/p>\n

Paddy wanted to call an ambulance, but Dylan warned that it would only land them in further trouble – they would have to dispose of the body instead.<\/p>\n

Compared to most soap characters, Paddy mostly keeps himself on the right side of the law, so this was a completely wild suggestion to him. Dylan suggested using a van from the depot – that was conveniently parked outside – to commit the act, and they headed outside to check out the vehicle.<\/p>\n

To their horror, Bear emerged from the backdoor dragging Ray’s body across the ground, and they quickly ushered him inside after placing the corpse among some boxes in the van.<\/p>\n

\"Dylan<\/p>\n

Paddy (Dominic. Brunt) and Dylan (Fred Kettle) have pretended not to know what happened.\u00a0ITV<\/p>\n

During their absence, Jai Sharma (Chris Bisson) jumped in the drivers seat and headed in the direction of Manchester.<\/p>\n

Of course, as we know, he didn’t make it to his destination due to a multi-vehicle pile-up, and Ray has since been found.<\/p>\n

But what about Bear?<\/p>\n

A series of further flashbacks<\/a> showed us that Paddy pretended not to be aware of his dad’s whereabouts, even following along with police investigations into what might have happened.<\/p>\n

\"Paddy,<\/p>\n

Paddy has even cooperated with police to ‘find’ his dad.\u00a0ITV<\/p>\n

We then saw that Bear is living in a much more comfortable environment, but Paddy has decided to lock the door behind him after each visit to ensure he doesn’t run to the police about his murderous actions.<\/p>\n

Will the plan work, and how long will Bear be hiding away?<\/p>\n
