Is Mack destined for death? <\/p>
The situation looked bleak for Mackenzie Boyd (Lawrence Robb) in tonight\u2019s Emmerdale<\/a> (Friday 22nd December 2023), as Damon Harris (Robert Beck) set his cronies on the man who had hurt his daughter Chloe (Jessie Elland).<\/p>\n Damon and Chloe left Mack to stew all night as he remained bound and gagged in a darkened factory, with the ultimatum that he would only be freed if he signed over his rights<\/a> to Reuben, the baby son he shared with Chloe.<\/p>\n Chloe asked her father if they would still be letting Mack go when \u2013 or if \u2013 he signed the papers. Damon replied that they would not free Mack straight away, and Chloe was troubled by this. But Damon urged her to leave Mack to him.<\/p>\n The pair returned to where Mack was trapped, and Chloe convinced Damon to let her speak to him alone. She taunted Mack, ordering him to comply with their wishes, because whatever he chose, he wouldn\u2019t get to see Reuben again.<\/p> Mack continued to refuse; but in a twist, with Damon distracted by a phone call, Chloe suddenly went to free Mack, revealing that her dad was planning on killing him regardless of what he signed. She told Mack how to escape, before slapping him in front of Damon to keep up the pretence.<\/p>\n In the village, Mack\u2019s wife Charity Dingle (Emma Atkins) spoke to his sister, Moira Dingle (Natalie J Robb), and Moira blamed Charity for the mess. Charity called the police to report Mack missing, but they failed to show concern.<\/p>\n At the factory, the man himself made his bid for freedom. Chloe tried to keep Damon distracted at home, but a message made him leave abruptly. Damon discovered that Mack had escaped, but soon found him nearby, and he watched as two of his heavies headed Mack\u2019s way. Will they kill him?<\/p>\n Read more:<\/strong><\/p>\n Emmerdale airs on weekdays at 7:30pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
