Coronation Street spoilers follow.
Coronation Street's Daniel Osbourne shocks Nicky Wheatley with his behaviour as they meet again tonight (August 21).
Daniel (Rob Mallard) is still relying strongly on Nicky's company as he continues to grieve for his late wife Sinead, who passed away last year.
In Friday's episode, Nicky (Kimberley Hart-Simpson) arrives at Daniel's flat for another booking.
Just when Nicky thinks she knows exactly what to expect from these unusual meetings, she's shocked to see that Daniel has gone to great effort to cook them a cosy meal.

Daniel also hands over Sinead's cardigan again, still keen for Nicky to wear her clothes so he can live out a fantasy that his wife is still alive.
Although Nicky goes along with it, she's clearly struggling to hide her discomfort and feels that Daniel's erratic behaviour is going too far.
Once Daniel's time is over, Nicky tries her best to let him down gently.
She suggests that Daniel should spend his time confiding in his family and friends, who clearly care about him, rather than wasting all of his money on her.

Alternatively, Nicky encourages Daniel to try another escort, as she'll be busier in the next few days.
When Daniel makes it clear that he only has eyes for Nicky, is it only a matter of time before she gets too freaked out and cuts ties with him?
Coronation Street airs tonight at 7.30pm on ITV.
