Simon was going through a tough time. His father Peter had left Weatherfield and he was struggling to cope with the change. He turned to alcohol to drown his sorrows, which resulted in some dangerous consequences for himself and others. After losing his job and getting into trouble with the law, Simon started attending a "self-help" group at the Chariot Square Hotel. His adoptive mother Leanne was the first to join this group, after being convinced by a man named Rowan Cunliffe.
Leanne had her doubts about the group at first, but Rowan's smooth talking and persuasive ways won her over. She even spent hundreds of pounds attending his online classes. This week, Rowan convinced Leanne to go on a retreat with him, without even saying goodbye to her family. This decision devastated Simon, who saw similarities between his father's departure and his mother's sudden departure. He turned to alcohol once again, unable to cope with the situation.
Meanwhile, Simon's sister Toyah and her partner Nick were desperately trying to convince Simon to not go on the retreat. They even called Peter, who had recently returned to Weatherfield, to intervene. Thankfully, their plan worked and Simon unpacked his bags, revealing that Peter had offered him a job on his yacht. This was all part of a plan to facilitate actor Alex Bain's departure from the show.
Despite this happy ending, there were still concerns about Simon's involvement with Rowan and his "Institute" group. Nick tried to reach out to Leanne through Rowan, but he was dismissive of Simon's behavior. This further raised concerns about the true intentions of the group and what kind of hold Rowan had on his followers.
Later, Rowan met with Simon and began filling his head with strange ideologies and concepts, such as "reality coding". This eventually led Simon to start packing his bags for the retreat. With Toyah and Nick still trying to convince him otherwise, they finally called Peter for help. In the end, Simon's family managed to save him from the clutches of Rowan and his group.
There is still uncertainty about Simon's future and whether he will get a happy ending. But for now, he is safe and back with his family.
