Corrie Spoilers 26th - 30th September

I really don't see how this will end well for Todd and Billy. Todd went into the scam willingly. Billy will not take this lightly, so say the least, when the truth comes out. And the truth will come out eventually, because it always does. I know Todd wants out of it again, but is threatened to stay. It doesn't matter because like I said, he joined willingly. It was a choice he made. The only way it can possibly work out is if Todd somehow switches sides and take Phelan and Vinny down instead. Or if Todd gets badly injured then Billy will just be happy he survived. Hopefully he won't be killed off. Kate Oates really wrote herself into a corner here, because how will they redeem Todd? I still think Todd joining the scam was a massive mistake. There was no need to make Todd bad again, not when he was so happy and had made so much progress. Him going bad all the time, relapsing into his old behavior, is repetitive and boring. Todd joining the scam to take them down however would have been interesting. But now he's involved for the wrong reason, which is scamming people. Ugh.. I hate all of this. Todd is my favorite character and I hate what they're doing to him.

Frankly, I almost find Todd slyly dobbing Billy in to the bishop worse than teaming up with Phelan.

For all his protestations about the call being made for Billy's sake, it was an incredibly manipulative, controlling, selfish and self-serving thing to do to the man he claims to love. Plus it was done without remorse. The trouble is that the phone call's been overshadowed by the fact he went running straight to Phelan when Billy dumped him.

Getting involved with the latter was an impulse driven by his hurt and anger. It was a choice, but it was made in the heat of the moment and driven by intense emotion. It doesn't in any way excuse that choice but it makes it more understandable. It's obvious he's already starting to regret it anyway, so I feel fairly sure he's going to try and bring Phelan and Vinny down one way or another. He's trapped though so he can't act hastily.
