Emmerdale Thursday 2 July Part 1
Robert talking to Serena, comments to her "a Dingle-Sudgen Christening completed, I suppose that's you inducted into the village then."
Robert asks "How'd it go?" As he hadn't attended himself,
Serena replies "It was nice to see Sarah looking so happy. She really is lovely isn't she?"
Robert says "Yeah, that's the Sudgen half."
Serena adds "even ended up from behind the bar. Who knew people watching could be so fun?"
Robert says "Yeah, the novelty will wear off, trust me."
Serena comments "Your in-laws were certainly an interesting bunch."
Robert quips, "That's one word for them."
Serena asks him "What word would you use?"
Robert says "well, er.." but he's cut off by Aaron returning home from his overnight scrap run.
Robert says "There he is... Speaking of Dingle's, the wonderer returns."
Aaron walks in & gets his first look at Serena.
Robert welcomes Aaron home & introduces Aaron & Serena to each other.
Serena tells Aaron "it's nice to meet you."
Aaron replies "Likewise."
Serena asks tentatively "Hope you don't mind a temporary house guest?"
Aaron replies "No, not at all. As long as you help clean up after him (Robert)."
Robert quips "hey!" At the jibe.
Serena says "He's been fairly tidy so far."
Aaron says "Well that won't last."
Serena says "And I'm nothing like John, in case you were worried."
Aaron asks "You knew John?"
Serena replies "Not really."
Aaron asks "What's that supposed to mean?"
Serena replies "it means not really..... I saw him at the odd family do that's all"
Robert recognising things are getting tense at the mention of John crosses the room & says "Aaron..." To settle him.
Aaron asks Serena "And you knew about everything he did here?"
Serena replies "I heard bits, yeah."
Robert asks Serena to "Maybe give us a minute?" Things are getting more awkward & tense by the moment.
She replies "Course. I said I'd help Matty anyway."
Serena heads out by stops & says to Aaron "Sorry if I said the wrong thing."
Aaron has questions & Robert knows he's got to play peacemaker as Aaron's got his hackles up now after that exchange & the John mentions.
