Pierce Harris’ (Jonathan Wrather) master plan has yet to come to light in Emmerdale, but during tonight’s episode a series of fortunate events resulted in the murderer gaining access to one of the properties owned by Kim Tate (Claire King), which prompts the question as to what exactly he needs it for?
After faking an accident outside Home Farm, Pierce managed to charm Kim into believing he was a family law solicitor named Ollie, and therefore — what with her needing some advice on this front as a result of Jamie (Alexander Lincoln) and Andrea (Anna Nightingale) going to war — she pretty much hired him on the spot.
Sporting glasses and a posh suit, Pierce hoped to keep his identity concealed, but his secret was put at risk during last night’s episode, as Al (Michael Wildman) grew suspicious of his motives, and therefore did some digging.
Being the master manipulator that he is, Pierce was able to talk his way out of Al’s questions during tonight’s episode, and concocted a narrative that once again painted him in a positive light.
Meanwhile, Al was tasked with organising the keys of all the properties that Kim owns, including Mulberry cottage, Dale View and Wylie’s farm.
While Kim and Al found themselves distracted, Pierce stole one particular set of keys and headed out.
His motives for doing so remain unclear, but with Al becoming something of a thorn in his side, perhaps he was simply intending on getting his adversary into trouble with Kim?
Or perhaps he intends on using the keys — and thus the corresponding property — for his own gain?
Emmerdale continues Thursday 13 February at 7pm and 8pm on ITV.
