Lisa was taken aback when Carla finally came clean about a shocking truth in upcoming scenes on Coronation Street. As DS Lisa Swain, she was used to uncovering secrets, but this one hit close to home. Carla's girlfriend, Betsy Swain, had been keeping a monumental secret from her for weeks, and it was finally going to come out next week.
Viewers knew that Carla had suffered a brain bleed after being attacked in the factory during a robbery orchestrated by Betsy. Carla quickly figured out that Betsy's teenage son was behind it, but promised not to tell Lisa, who was already struggling after learning new information about her late wife, Becky's death.
But in the upcoming scenes, Betsy couldn't keep the secret any longer and confessed to allowing Matty and Logan Radcliffe into the factory to rob it. To make matters worse, Lisa was horrified when Betsy revealed that Carla had known about it and kept quiet.
In a rush of emotions, Lisa heads to the hospital where Carla is being treated for sepsis, a complication from the attack. She confronts Carla about her lies, but Carla quickly apologizes and explains that she was only trying to protect Lisa. This admission softens Lisa's anger, but it begs the question: will Betsy get away with her actions?
But that's not the only shock the couple will face next week. Carla learns that her kidney has been badly damaged by the sepsis and she needs a transplant. With the search for a donor underway, Carla's half-brother, Bobby Crawford, visits their father, Rob Donovan, in prison to ask if he would be willing to donate a kidney to his sister.
It's a difficult and emotional request, especially considering their past. Will Rob put his feelings aside and help Carla in her time of need? According to producer Kate Brooks, he will become another obstacle in Carla and Lisa's relationship.
The couple has already faced their fair share of challenges, and this is just another test for them. Brooks explains, "It's really exciting, and what I like about this story in particular is that Carla and Lisa are finally together and united... and then this drops on them. It's a real test for their relationship in the early stages, but a good test."
