Martine Deveraux (Kelle Bryan) is on a mission to protect her son in tonight’s Hollyoaks on at 6.30pm (See our TV Guide for full listings).
When killer Toby Faroe (Bobby Gordon) starts to come out of his coma, Martine is adamant policeman Saul Reeves (Chris Charles), who was investigating the murder of Lisa Loveday (Rachel Adedeji), doesn’t find out.
Martine, who knows her son Toby is guilty of the crime, wants to delay Toby’s arrest for as long as possible but with Toby now awake, it’s surely only a matter of time.
Later, Martine comes face to face with Toby, who was left in a coma after the fatal explosion at Salon de Thé which killed Marnie Nightingale (Lysette Anthony), Sylver McQueen (David Tag) and Toby’s triplet sister, Celeste Faroe (Andrea Ali).
Can Martine ever forgive Toby for murdering her niece, Lisa, and pinning the blame on her other son, Toby’s triplet brother, Mitchell Deveraux (Imran Adams).
Meanwhile, Darren Osborne (Ashely Taylor Dawson) decides that he wants to support young teens, Charlie Dean (Charlie Behan) and Ella Richardson (Erin Palmer) with raising their baby.
However he fails to get his other half, Nancy (Jessica Fox) and Ella’s step-mum, Cindy Cunningham (Stephanie Waring) on board with the idea.
Later on, Darren arranges for Charlie to have a part-time job at Price Slice in the hope that Charlie will be motivated into providing for his young family and learn how to save money.
However, Charlie’s foray into the working world doesn't show him in a great light when he blows all his first earnings on a video game.
Certain that Charlie and Ella just don’t have the maturity to cope with a new baby, Nancy thinks it’s time they all face facts and start considering the option of adoption.
How will Ella and Charlie react?
Elsewhere, Mercedes McQueen (Jennifer Metcalfe) plans to home-school her son Bobby (Jayden Fox).
Nana McQueen (Diane Langton) fears that’s a very bad idea but Mercedes tells her she has it all figured out.
Teacher and family member John Paul McQueen (James Sutton) is going to help with the lesson plans although John Paul seems more preoccupied with drinking and hangovers than any teaching right now.
Later, a social worker pays the McQueens a surprise visit and his timing is very unfortunate when he overhears a shocking comment from Bobby.
And there is worse to come when mum Mercedes later makes a DISTURBING discovery in Bobby’s school bag.
What has she unearthed?
Plus, Imran Maalik (Ijaz Rana) tries to pluck up the courage to ask Serena Chen-Williams (Emma Lau) out.
However Serena’s big brother, Sam Chen Williams (Matthew McGivern) doesn’t think Imran is good enough for his little sister.
Sam decides to put Imran though his paces!
What exactly has he got in mind and how is Imran going to fare?
