Daniel Osbourne (Rob Mallard) has had a difficult time in Coronation Street while grieving for his late wife – getting involved with Nicky Wheatley (Kimberley Hart-Simpson), a sex worker, who he is trying to help get out of the game, and out of debt.
Adam Barlow (Sam Robertson) has since found out what he is up to, and who Nicky is, and has voiced his concerns, doing all he can to try and get Daniel to distance himself from her. But, despite Daniel insisting that he only wants friendship from her, it is clear that he is smitten and that soon leads him to make a risky mistake – and then gain a dangerous enemy in the process.
Knowing that Nicky is in need of some quick cash, Daniel sees an opportunity when he spots that Geoff Metcalfe (Ian Bartholemew) has an envelope full of cash, that he swiftly pockets and hands over to her.
While Geoff instantly pointed the finger of suspicion at Alya Nazir (Sair Khan), in a very public way, Daniel kept his head down and decided to keep what he did to himself. Only that proves to be a mistake when Geoff gets hold of CCTV footage from the solicitor’s office that shows Daniel was very clearly the thief.
Police officer Craig Tinker (Colson Smith) is soon informed and Daniel is left with no choice but to confess to the police that it was indeed him who swiped the money. He promises both Geoff and the police that he will pay the money back, but will it be that simple?
Daniel has no idea the sort of person he is dealing with when it comes to Geoff and the abuser is more volatile than ever following his son, Tim (Joe Duttine) learning what kind of a man his father really is. Will Daniel be in danger as a result of his actions, and how will Nicky feel when she learns that he has put himself in harm’s way in an attempt to help her?
