As the drama in Coronation Street continues to unfold, Roy Cropper finds himself a free man after spending weeks in prison for the murder of Lauren Bolton. However, life has not gone back to normal for him. Being the police's main suspect due to being the last person to see Lauren alive and behaving suspiciously, Roy has been struggling to cope with the accusations and the hate he has received from the public.
For those who know Roy, the idea of him being a criminal or a killer is unimaginable. But that did not stop internet "sleuths" from targeting him and making his life a living hell. Even in prison, he faced threats from a former gang leader, Griff Reynolds, seeking revenge for Lauren's death. But now that Nathan Curtis has been arrested, viewers know that it was actually Joel Deering who committed the crime. With Roy back in Coronation Street where he belongs, he still carries the mental scars of his ordeal, causing him to withdraw from his normal life.
His friends Shona Platt, Nina Lucas, and Yasmeen Nazir, who are aware of his struggles, come up with a plan to help him return to a normal life. They fake Shona's illness, forcing Roy to cover her shift at the cafe. With some success, Roy gains the confidence to venture out and even brings soup to Shona's house. However, on his short walk, he is faced with a gang of people who hurl insults at him, reminding him of the names he was called while under suspicion for Lauren's murder. Roy tries to escape, but ends up on the ground, surrounded by the angry mob.
Thankfully, Carla Connor arrives just in time to save him and helps him back to the cafe. It is then revealed that Shona was never really ill, and Roy is angry at himself for putting himself in danger for no reason. He sends her away and is also upset with Evelyn Plummer for being a part of the trick. Just when things seem to calm down, Roy's health takes a turn for the worst, and he collapses. An ambulance arrives, and paramedics rush to help him, performing CPR at the cafe.
Luckily, Roy is taken to the hospital and wakes up. However, in a new video, we see that he is not out of the woods yet. As Nina tries to speak to him, he greets her as if she is Lauren, causing her to wonder what is going on. Is it just confusion, or is there something else happening with Roy? Fans can't wait to find out.
