your one-stop up date on what happened last week on Canada's Coronation Street...
Let's start with the small stuff before we get to the main event.
Some big kid we've never seen before (named Mason) shows up and seems to be a big bully pressuring Liam and Dylan to become yobbish deadbeats and take up vaping. Liam (being asthmatic) has a severe reaction to the vaping and is taken to hospital.
Gary and Maria are not amused. Oh, and by the way, this Mason kid was the one who stole Ty's car and injured Eliza. Liam and Dylan have been sworn to secrecy.
Stu is getting fed up with Dom's antics and hires a private detective to find out what Eliza's biological Dad is up to.
Okay, now let's cut to the chase.
First, Carla finally gets the results of her LSD test. Looks like she passed. Or, to put it more scientifically, she was indeed drugged by someone. Carla deduces that it must have been Stephen. Carla tells Peter who is outraged but told (by Carla) to stay cool. Carla meanwhile shares her theory about Stephen with Detective Swain. Swain points out that there is (so far) no evidence to connect Stephen to the LSD but she is keeping a close eye on the Canadian cad.
Second, Tim gets a notion to snoop around the canal where he once spied Stephen. As he pokes around he dislodges Ted's resting place (a Thule roof case) and is horrified (that's the kind of cheap burial package you'd expect from Rest Easy). But I digress. Tim calls the police but is soon after confronted by Stephen who coshes Tim and stuffs him into the trunk (boot) of Tim's taxi. He sprinkles the car with gas (petrol). One fears the worst...
Meanwhile, back on the Street, Sally is angry with Tim for missing their wedding anniversary. She assumes that Tim went to the Weathy County football match with Kevin. Turns out that Kev went to the match with Kirk (not Tim) and is hung over and "working from home" (how does an auto mechanic work from home? Does he have a hoist in his bedroom?) Anyway, when Sal finds out that Tim didn't attend the match, she starts to worry.
Speaking of worry, Jenny is now getting very nervous around Stephen ever since Carla stopped by to give Jenny a heads-up about Stephen's um.. psycho-killer tendencies. One hopes that Stephen doesn't start to suspect that Jenny suspects... or that might be a tad dangerous (in a hole punch kinda way).
Speaking of the man himself, Steve-o seems to be gearing up for a fast getaway to Thailand. To ensure that he can afford his fair share of Pad Thai and spring rolls, Stevie cons Michael into revealing his security access code allowing Steve to withdraw a cool 250,000 pounds (approx) from the Underworld bank account (Note to Underworld IT: shouldn't there be a limit to how much an employee like Michael could take out? Just saying). Carla and Michael subsequently rush to the cop shop to report the theft.
When Sarah learns about Stephen's Underworld fraud, she finally tells the Platt family about Stephen's equity fraud on Audrey's house. The Platts are shocked that Stephen would steal from his mother (but then that's exactly what David and darling Nicky did once upon a time). This news is surely going to be devastating for Audrey.
Can anyone stop Stephen before he boards his getaway flight to Thailand? Or will they just say he's gone, Phuket? Peter is certainly not ready to let Stephen get away (not after what he did to Carla).
Looks like the Canuck may be running out of luck...
And now for a few lines from the week that was:
