Coronation Street spoilers follow.
Coronation Street's Mick Michaelis escapes from jail next week with a risky plan to go on the run with his family – but not before he gets revenge on Kit Green.
The dangerous cop killer carefully plots his escape from behind bars, with Brody secretly helping him on the outside. But Mick's prison break ends in a terrifying siege, and a violent showdown leaves Kit fighting for his life.
Brody holds both Mick and Kit's fates in his hands, but where do his loyalties really lie – with the man who raised him, or his biological dad?
"Brody is desperate to keep his family together," says Ryan Mulvey, who plays the teen.
"He feels it's his duty as a brother, and as a man. Brody has morals and knows what Mick has planned is wrong, but he'll do what it takes to keep his loved ones close…"

The drama kicks off as Mick decides that it's time to get his family back and teach Kit a lesson for betraying him.
He ropes Brody into rounding up Joanie and Shanice so they can flee Weatherfield together.
"Brody idolises Mick and doesn't want to disappoint him," notes Ryan. "He can't comprehend he might not be his biological dad. It feels like Brody's life has been shattered and he's not dealing with it very well.
"Helping Mick get away could get Brody back in the STC, but his behaviour is more impulsive since this bombshell about Kit was dropped on him."

With Kit wheeled in for life-saving surgery, Sarah and Bernie pray he'll pull through, while conflicted Brody processes potentially losing the dad he thought he had, and the one he's only just discovered.
"It's very overwhelming for Brody, and becomes a huge battle in his head between Mick and Kit," says Ryan. "I don't think Brody really knows who he wants to win."
