However, her efforts to get him to go travelling with his ex Leanna go disastrously wrong when she offers to pay for his airfare as long as he keeps it a secret.
Jacob cottons onto the fact Meena is trying to manipulate him and decides to play along, telling her he will leave with Leanna.
But just as Meena announces it’s time to celebrate his impending departure, he enjoys bursting her bubble.
Meena warns Jacob not to make an enemy of her, but she’s shocked when he declares war.
Emmerdale bosses have confirmed that Meena is set to claim her first human victim next week in grisly scenes.
Could it be Jacob?
Speaking about the murder, actress Paige Sandhu revealed: “Meena won’t kill for the thrill, she’ll kill simply because someone is in her way and she always gets what she wants. To her, it seems perfectly reasonable that she would murder someone who is standing in the way of something she wants.
Asked whether she’ll get away with the killing, Paige added: “Meena is intelligent. She’s calculating and manipulative. I think she knows what she’s doing and if anyone can get away with murder, maybe it’s Meena.”
Talking about how his character reacts when Meena warns him not to make an enemy of her, Jacob actor Joe-Warren Plant revealed: “Jacob is unnerved after her subtle threat and he has seen first-hand acts of authority and manipulation used against him so I believe it triggers something in his brain that takes him back to that dark place. Making him feel slightly scared in a way.”
Asked whether Jacob is in danger, he teased: “Jacob is very much in danger. Especially when there’s a killer so close to home.”
Jacob isn’t the only enemy Meena makes next week as Manpreet tells Liam that she wants to give her old travelling rucksack to Leanna to take on her travels, unaware that Meena has stashed some personal belongings in it.
Meena confronts Manpreet about the bag and Manpreet tells her she gave it to Liam for Leanna.
Leanna is stunned when Manpreet bounds into her bedroom asking for the rucksack.
Will Leanna discover the contents and could it incriminate Meena?
