Next week's Hollyoaks episodes see evil Laurie Shelby's storyline come to a head, while the teens head to a festival and Scott Drinkwell is targeted in a nasty attack.
Here's a full collection of 14 storylines coming up.
1. Sinead faces Laurie again
On the eve of Laurie's sentencing hearing, Sinead is shaken when she reads an abusive letter than her evil husband has sent to her.
Disgusted by his nasty words, Sinead reluctantly heads off to see him in prison. Still deluded and manipulative as ever, Laurie tells Sinead that they both need each other.
However, Sinead rightly thinks otherwise – humiliating Laurie by flirting with other inmates and making it clear that a reunion between them will never happen.
Stephanie Davis, who plays Sinead, recently told Inside Soap: "This letter is typical of manipulative Laurie – he's trying to get a reaction out of Sinead. And it works, he says all kinds of nasty things, and Sinead wonders if they're true.
What to Read Next
"Her mum advises her not to rise to it, but Laurie goes to the next level and brings up Hannah. That's when Sinead decides to confront him.
"By this point, she's had enough. She just thinks, 'he can say what he likes about me, but not about my daughter!' And when Sinead comes face to face with Laurie, you can actually see him at breaking point – he's losing control a little bit."
2. Laurie's sentence is revealed
Sinead is adamant that she won't be attending Laurie's hearing, wanting to move on with her life now that she has confronted him. Instead, she looks to the future and starts by heading off to a music festival with Lisa and Cleo.
In Sinead's absence, Laurie is sentenced to four years in prison for his attack on Diane, who's hugely relieved when she realises that it's all over. Or is it?
3. Laurie and Finn have a dramatic crash
As Laurie is escorted off to prison to begin his sentence, he ends up sharing a police van with Sinead's brother Finn. The two villains strike up a conversation and when Finn admits his own crimes, he encourages Laurie to do the same.
When Laurie brings up his sinister history with Sinead, a horrified Finn finally realises who he is. Finn lunges at Laurie and attacks him, causing the van to crash amid the chaos.
Prior to the crash, Laurie has been creepily talking to a picture of Sinead, planning to be reunited with her very soon. Could the accident give him an opportunity to escape?
4. Sinead kisses Sami
Although Sami wasn't originally planning to attend the music festival, he's encouraged by Diane to go along and keep an eye on Sinead as she needs a friend looking out for her.
Sinead flirts with Sami during the event and later makes her move by going in for a kiss, which isn't reciprocated at first. But is it only a matter of time before Sinead and Sami become a proper couple?
5. Mitchell's behaviour around Scott sparks suspicion
As we revealed yesterday, Hollyoaks will be exploring Mitchell's sexuality in upcoming episodes as he continues to grow attracted to Scott's drag alter ego Anita.
In true soap style, there's a handy coincidence to bring them together when Scott accidentally glues his eye shut while applying eyelashes for his latest performance as Anita.
Junior doctor Mitchell tenderly looks after Scott at the hospital, but rushes off when Cleo comes in. It doesn't take long for Cleo to confront Mitchell about why he's behaving strangely around Scott.
6. Scott and Mitchell team up
Later in the week, Scott decides to take Mitchell out for a lads' day to take his mind off how much he misses Cleo, who's now at the festival. However, their fun plans are thwarted when Scott gets called for a last-minute performance at The Dog.
Transforming himself into Anita once more, Scott becomes a drag agony aunt for the pub's punters – and there should be no shortage of problems to solve in the Hollyoaks village. Mitchell also gets involved by coming up on stage and giving medical advice as Anita's sidekick.
7. Scott is attacked
Once Mitchell has completed his involvement in the performance, Scott's day takes a disturbing turn. Some schoolchildren – led by Stuart's son Sid – hurl abuse at Scott for being in drag.
The nasty encounter gets worse as the teen thugs pull off Scott's wig and push him to the floor. Will anyone come to his rescue?
8. Prince and Peri's chemistry is revisited again
Prince regrets storming off from Tom's Turtles at the start of summer, so he reluctantly asks Tom for his job back. Peri is excited about the prospect of working with Prince again, so convinces Tom to re-hire him.
Yazz decides to play matchmaker between Prince and Peri, but spoilsport Tom gets jealous over their connection and tries to separate them.
9. Prince to leave?
Tom later turns manipulative (maybe he took tips from Sienna in that basement a few years ago) by encouraging Prince to question whether a relationship with Peri is the right idea at the moment. He suggests that some people in the village would judge him for moving on from Lily so quickly after her death. Come on, Tom, four months is a lifetime in soap terms.
By the end of the week, Prince's focus seems to be elsewhere as he starts planning a trip. It's no secret that Malique Thompson-Dwyer, who plays Prince, has now left Hollyoaks – could this be the moment he bows out?
10. Juliet is humiliated
The teens are also attending the music festival, where Juliet's bullying ways resurface. Juliet puts pressure on Brooke to get alcohol for the other teens, pointing out that she looks older and stands a better chance of going unchallenged if she tries to buy some.
Brooke initially goes to do it but backs out at the last minute, insisting that she can't lie. Juliet isn't happy, especially when she gets laughed out of the beer tent when trying to buy some booze herself.
11. Brooke faces a traumatic experience
As impatient Juliet grows increasingly angry with Brooke after the booze mishap, she steals her purse as revenge. Brooke goes back into the DJ tent to look for it, but suffers sensory overload and falls to the floor, screaming for help.
Brooke is disgusted when she later finds her purse in Juliet's bag and realises that she was the source of her troubles. She ends up falling out with Juliet and Ollie as the tension comes to a head.
12. Brooke receives some big news
The festival week isn't the end of the Brooke and Juliet bullying storyline just yet. Niamh Blackshaw, who plays Juliet, has already dropped a hint that some big news for Brooke will see the situation get even worse.
In a new interview, Niamh teased: "Brooke gets some news after the festival and Juliet uses this as an opportunity to take the bullying to another level."
13. Joel's dating woes continue
Cleo has just given Joel an ultimatum to choose between Goldie and the church, leaving him feeling awkward as he's forced to consider what he really wants.
Goldie pushes her luck by meeting Joel in the confession booth, but have Cleo's home truths given him cold feet over their relationship?
14. Ste continues down the wrong path
With Harry gone, Ste's focus is entirely on keeping Stuart and Jonny happy. He agrees to go on another far-right march.
Jonny also sets Ste up with Jed again – and the pair's forced connection will soon be taking an unexpected direction.
Hollyoaks airs weeknights at 6.30pm on Channel 4, with first look screenings at 7pm on E4.
