Things are about to get really intense on Coronation Street. Maria is extremely worried about Gary’s sudden disappearance. Next week, her fears will escalate. While she searches for answers, her husband is already fighting for his life, and those close to him have no idea.
Maria Reports Gary Missing – But Nina Has a Terrifying Theory
It starts when Maria finally goes to the police to report Gary missing. She has reached her breaking point, and luckily, Kit Green jumps into action. He starts digging and discovers there was a report from the hospital about an unidentified man in a coma who was brought in recently. Could this mystery patient be Gary?
Meanwhile, Maria tells Sarah Barlow that Gary hasn’t touched his bank account in nearly three weeks. That is scary, but what happens next really ramps up the drama.
Nina overhears their conversation and starts to panic. She rushes to Summer Spellman and reveals a disturbing memory. It turns out the night Gary vanished was the same night she and Summer took drugs at the midsummer party. Their memories of that evening are unclear at best, but Nina remembers a frightening moment with a strange man, whom she pushed before running away.
Now, Nina is convinced that man was Gary. What if they left him hurt and unconscious? She feels horrified, and Summer is just as shaken. But can the girls really go to the police with what they know, or will they keep quiet and hope no one finds out?
Flashbacks Reveal What Really Happened to Gary in Coronation Street
Just when things seem like they might lead somewhere, Kit hits a wall. He tells Maria that the coma patient at the hospital isn’t Gary. This leaves her even more frantic. Samia Longchambon, who plays Maria, describes it as bittersweet. Maria feels a small bit of relief that he might not be in a coma, but that relief quickly turns to dread. If he’s not there, where is he?
But viewers know the truth. Over at the hospital, a nurse tells a woman at a patient’s bedside that “Chesney” is starting to make progress. The biggest twist is that the patient is actually Gary. That’s when Coronation Street takes us back in time. We finally see how he ended up fighting for his life, and more importantly, who put him there. We also learn the truth about the mystery woman who brought him to the hospital. She has been sitting by his side, lying to the doctors about who he is. But is she trying to protect Gary or cover something up?
Can Gary Be Saved?
Now that we know who attacked Gary, it’s a race against time. They are desperate to cover their tracks and stay out of it. Meanwhile, poor Maria is still in the dark, fearing she may never see her husband again.
As for Nina and Summer, they wrestle with guilt. Nina is certain they might have played a part in Gary getting hurt. But telling the truth could ruin their lives. Should they confess or stay silent? And what about the woman at Gary’s bedside? Her intentions remain a mystery. Is she helping him, or putting him in even more danger?
Now that the truth is out in the open, things are moving fast. Trust us, Coronation Street fans are in for a wild ride next week. Stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for all the latest Coronation Street drama!
