Poor Gary will be forced to new lows tonight as Rick decides he is better suited to debt collection rather than selling loans to the vulnerable, but when Gary recognises the first client as Vicky Jeffries, the mum of gang leader Tyler, he's not happy.
But Gary is about to find out the hard way what happens when you don't do as Rick tells you...
In tonight's second instalment of Coronation Street, Sarah will be left worried when Gary doesn't come home from work and immediately starts thinking the worst.
Her worries are only heightened when Nick reveals the theory that the factory roof collapse was an act of sabotage, and she starts to wonder if Gary was more involved in the tragedy surrounding Rana's death than he has been letting on.
But while Sarah starts to think Gary is in trouble with the police, little does she know he is a whole different world of danger.
As Gary is confronted by Rick he is terrified when the loan shark tells him that he still owes him £11k and needs to start doing everything he asks or he'll be in danger.
Things aren't set to get any better for Gary, and by the end of the week he is still missing and Sarah is terrified.
But as she panics that he is wanted by the police, Gary is being forced to sign his whole livelihood over to Rick as a way to pay off some of his debts.
How is Sarah going to react when he finally comes home on Friday and tells her that he's lost everything, even his van?
