Coronation Street could air vile scenes on the ITV soap next week, as Abi Franklin risks losing custody of her baby son based on a lie.
Abi is battling for custody against little Alfie's father Imran Habeeb, who is playing dirty to get what he wants.
After wrongly believing she was back on drugs, Imran has made it his mission to stop her having custody - with social services already questioning if she can look after her baby, because of her past.
Imran hired a private investigator named Ben to find any dirt he could on her, to use it in court.
It was his hope that he could prove Abi was still on drugs and win the custody battle, while Ben has been carrying out illegal activities to get his hands on information about Abi.
Next week, he takes photos of her in the street speaking to Dean, who she recently did drugs with before managing to get back on track.
When Dean tries to get Abi to sell him drugs, she tells him to leave and soon pays him off to stay out of her way.
But Ben spots the moment and takes snaps, before showing them to Imran.
He then tells Imran he is prepared to lie in court and state that Abi was dealing or buying drugs in a shocking set-up.
Imran has the ball in his court, as it's up to him whether to go through with it and lie about Abi.
But with him desperate to get custody of their son, how far is he prepared to go to screw over Abi?
The character will be departing the ITV soap at some point this year, so viewers should stay tuned to find out what happens next.
