Coronation Street fans were shocked but not surprised by Hope Stape's latest actions.
During Wednesday night's trip to the cobbles, viewers saw the youngster having to tell her mum Fiz why she had found crisp packets and empty cans of pop in her loft.
A sheepish Hope wasn't too willing to confess to that she helped her cousin Joseph Brown hide up there when he did a runner from No.5.
Hope and Joseph were given £100 each by Clint, who found the pair wandering the back streets of the cobbles, in order to bag the reward money.

Bernie Winter soon found out what had happened and ended up splitting the £32,000 reward with him, and had been using it to help daughter Gemma and Chesney.
While fans of the ITV soap know Bernie didn't have a hand in Joseph's disappearance, Hope lied to her mum and grandmother Evelyn, telling them Bernie forced Joseph to hide in the loft and bribed them both in order to stay quiet.
The incident then spilled onto the street with Bernie having to admit in front of her family and new boyfriend Dev Alahan that she did have half of the reward money.
But she insisted she had nothing to do with Joseph going missing.
Nobody believed her and the police showed up, taking her and Fiz down to the station.
Bernie eventually returned home pending investigation but explained she wasn't able to stay at the house.
While Gemma appeared worried about her mum, Chesney wasn't pleased and told Bernie to leave and that she's no longer welcome under their roof.
And Hope's latest lies have got Corrie viewers thinking the worse.
