Next week's Coronation Street will see Daniel reach breaking point, while Gemma makes a horrifying discovery, and Michael has a blast from the past.
Here are 13 storylines hitting your screens soon.
1. The Street says goodbye to Sinead
As Sinead's funeral looms, Daniel arrives home in time to lay his wife to rest, and the community gathers to say their final goodbyes.
Later, at the wake, Daniel decides to head home and watch the videos Sinead recorded for Bertie. Unbeknown to him, a burglar has broken into the flat and begins rifling through Daniel's possessions – stealing the laptop containing Sinead's priceless videos.
2. It all gets too much for Daniel
When Daniel discovers the flat has been broken into, he immediately calls Peter for help. As Carla takes Daniel to Ken's to calm down, Peter realises the laptop is gone and knows they must break the news to a devastated Daniel.
Daniel enlists Craig's help to hunt for the laptop at local pawn shops, but when he spies a similar-looking laptop in a glass cabinet, he flies off the handle. Accusing the shopkeeper of handling stolen goods, he takes a golf club and smashes the display.
What to Read Next
3. Family and friends rally around Daniel
As Daniel is arrested for his outburst, Craig and Peter desperately try to convince the shopkeeper to drop the charges. Ultimately, Daniel's behaviour was all for nothing when he discovers the laptop wasn't his.
Daniel decides to clean the flat but when he spots Sinead's broken mug on the floor, he breaks down and is discovered by Beth, who consoles him.
Later, Peter and Carla offer to look after Bertie to give Daniel some time alone, but when he returns worse for wear, Peter's deeply concerned.
4. Billy declares his love for Paul
Paul is confused when he sees Billy give Bernie the keys to the church hall and witnesses Kel help her load the car with cleaning supplies. When he quizzes Bernie, she reveals that Billy has offered her a job as a cleaner.
Paul presses Billy for a reason why he is trying to help Bernie, but is shocked when Billy reveals he did it because he's in love with him. How will Paul react?
5. David helps Paul turn a corner
With Paul still reeling from Billy's declaration, he has a chat with David and reveals that he was responsible for getting Josh to change his statement after he discovered David's ordeal.
As David explains his experience and how he came out the other side, his words unintentionally resonate with Paul. Realising he too must learn to deal with his trauma, Paul takes a huge step and surprises Billy with a romantic dinner – promising to make Billy proud.
6. Bernie is wrongly accused
When Billy notes that his diary is missing, complete with details of funerals that also coincided with several burglaries, Paul assumes the worst. Roping in Gemma to investigate, the pair are shocked to find a bag of stolen goods at Number 5.
When furious Gemma confronts Bernie, she claims that she's innocent, but Gemma is having none of it. She kicks her mum out and threatens to go to the police.
7. Gemma and Bernie make a grim discovery
When Gemma and Paul later find Bernie upset in The Rovers, they realise they may have jumped the gun and apologise. However, when it becomes clear that Kel was the only other person who had access to Billy's diary, Gemma and Bernie break into his flat to investigate.
As well as Daniel's stolen laptop, they're horrified to find old photos of Paul and other children – and realise the awful truth.
8. Paul reveals the truth about his abuse
When Gemma and Bernie return home with the shocking evidence, Paul is stunned and is forced to confront his past. With Billy at his side for support, Paul recounts Kel's sexual abuse.
Gemma and Bernie are stunned by the details, and Gemma urges her brother to report Kel to the police. Paul refuses, not wanting to rake over his painful past any further. Will Gemma be able to get through to him?
9. James fears his secret being exposed
In recent weeks, Ed has been under the impression James has been having a fling with Bethany – unaware she's really a confidant for James regarding his sexuality. So, when Michael reveals James didn't come home the night before, Ed assumes he stayed at Bethany's.
It turns out James spent the night with a guy called Dan, and he has lost his phone. With the threat of his sexuality being exposed, James and Michael set off in search.
10. Michael bumps into an old face
As the brothers manage to hunt down the phone, they wait for it to be returned to them in Freshco's car park. However, Michael is shocked to see his ex-girlfriend Grace with their daughter – but Grace completely blanks him.
Later, as Michael fills his parents in on his encounter with Grace, there's a knock at the door. Grace insists that their daughter needs a responsible dad, and even though Michael begs for the chance to prove himself, Grace is unconvinced. Is Grace right to be wary?
11. Aggie oversteps the mark
Even though Michael's family are reeling from the shock that he abandoned Grace and his child, Aggie decides to take matters into her own hands and consults Adam about Michael's rights.
However, when Grace finds out, she's naturally annoyed at the family seeking legal help behind her back. She insists she doesn't need the hassle, and storms out. Furious, Michael then blasts poor Aggie for potentially ruining things with Grace.
12. Michelle is behaving suspiciously
Carla is confused when she sees Michelle working alongside Robert – and even more so when Michelle swears her to secrecy regarding Robert's affair.
Meanwhile, having won Michelle back, Robert bears the brunt of Vicky's fury. She rips into him for his duplicitous behaviour and even Tyler throws a punch for all the hurt he has caused.
As Robert returns home to Michelle, is everything really as it seems, or has Michelle got an ulterior motive?
13. Max puts David's nose out of joint
Having put the dramatic last few weeks behind them, David and Shona decide to plan their future together as a family and start off by informing Max and Lily of their plans to adopt them.
However, when Max voices his concern about whether this means he can still see Marion, David is left feeling hurt.
Viewers know Callum's mum Marion has recently come back on the scene as part of Max's recent storyline, and by the looks of things, won't be leaving his life any time soon.
