Coronation Street Catch Up: the sticky fingers edition

 your one stop update on what happened last week on Canada's Coronation Street...

Well, the cat (meow) is out of the bag.

Daisy finally blurts out the truth about her sharing a biblical union (aka one night stand) with Ryan. Of course, this comes as no surprise to Daniel. He was forwarded a video (by Simon, who has nothing better to do) showing Ryan confirming his legover with Daisy.

Instead of confronting Daisy, Daniel decides to sabotage Ryan's new job at the gym by letting the gym bosses know about Ryan's unfortunate steroid use. After learning he lost the job, Ryan opts for his backup plan: moving to Glasgow with Crystal.

Meanwhile, Daniel forges ahead with his plan to solidify his hold on Daisy by proposing to buy the Rovers (yikes, bit of a money pit, isn't it?)) for her and also secretly preparing the paperwork for Daisy to legally adopt Bertie. Unfortunately his plan seems to have backfired.

Over at Dognapp central (Tyrone's house), Evelyn needs a place to hide the dog that she rescued (or stole, whatever you prefer) from her evil dog-abusing owner (Terry). However Terry is not to be toyed with as he briefly terrorizes Evelyn at the shop and then punches Tyrone (and threatens to do worse unless his pooch is returned).

Physical assault is not the only issue Ty has to deal with as the ever-irrepressible Hope gets her nose pierced as a birthday present to herself. Ty's negotiating skills result in Hope removing the stud in exchange for the promise of a nose ring in the future.

Over at Speed Dal, Stu is like a dog with a bone as he continues to search for dirt on Eliza's father, Dom. Stu's PI discovers that Dom has a secret family in Germany and Stu tries to force Dom to return to the fatherland (so to speak) with a cash incentive.

Craig returns Stephen's possessions to Audrey and Audrey passes on Stephen's laptop to Jenny.

And now for a few lines from the week that was:

Daisy to Daniel:

"I slept with Ryan"

(I see. Care to expand?)

Roy to Evelyn on the fact that he was tasked with recording Evelyn throwing mint imperials at Terry, the dog abuser:
"I got footage of you throwing confectionery"
(in HD I hope)

Terry to Evelyn:
"Are you one of those nut jobs who thinks animals are more important than people?"
(a rhetorical question, one assumes)

Roy to Asha and Nina:

"There's a time and a place for sticky fingers"

(just ask the Rolling Stones)

 

Hope to Ty:

"My body, my nose"

(...but Ty's problem)

Audrey to Craig re: Stephen:
"Before he went to Canada he was so full of life and fun"

(damn those Canadians!)

Daniel envisions the future as pub owner with Daisy:

"The adventures of Mr. and Mrs. Rovers Return"

(a short story)

Well, prescient punters, so ends another somewhat glacial-paced week. Hopefully things will pick up a bit as the Daisy-Daniel-Ryan situation heats up. Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a great week.
