"I think my life's about to blow up."
Hollyoaks' dull storylines for Ste Roughage and Mercedes McQueen have crossed over in the most recent scene — and it looks like things are as it were going to get more awful for both. Ste has been through the ringer of late with his child Lucas physically manhandling him and his creating sentiments for high school Dillon Beam (Lucas' ex and the father of Ste's grandson, Child James).
Meanwhile, Mercedes is battling with the blame of shooting Tony Hutchinson and losing his child she was carrying. She's too been undermined by writings from an mysterious person.
In tonight's scene, Ste strolled in on Dillon talking approximately what's happened between the two to Frankie Osborne. He was incensed that the youth had told somebody after promising not to.
Dillon afterward came to Ste's put to discover him gazing at the divider. "You're fair juvenile, aren't ya? Why would you tell her?" he said as a single tear shaped in his eye.
If she can put two and two together then so can Lucas. Just get out. Leave me alone. You can't be around me anymore."
Meanwhile, Warren Fox was determined to prove it was Goldie sending Mercedes the anonymous texts. He raided the McQueen house for evidence.
She insisted it couldn't be Goldie, but Warren found a hidden phone. Mercedes still wasn't convinced, and John Paul soon came in and demanded that everyone — Goldie and Warren included — had to go to The Hutch for a drink to support Sienna Blake.
At the event, Goldie handed Mercedes an envelope that had been delivered to the house, which contained a photo with the words 'KILLER MCQUEEN' on it. Warren again accused "twisted little cow" Goldie and threatened to kill her, but John Paul revealed the burner phone was one he confiscated off a kid in school..
Mercedes dragged Warren outside and called him out for his behaviour, so he decided to sulk off to Liverpool. Their row was overheard by the duplicitous Gemma Johnson, who offered Mercedes some anti-anxiety pills and promised they weren't dangerous or addictive.
She then went to The Loft, where Ste appeared next to her at the bar. He asked her about the pills and she offered him some.
"I think my life's about to blow up, and I don't wanna be sober when it does," he said, as they knocked back both booze and the pills.
Both characters are on a dangerous path, and it's especially bad for Ste as he's struggled with addiction for years. How far down the hole will he fall?
