Coronation Street aired Carla Connor’s secret plan to help girlfriend Lisa Swain amid her career crisis.

Lisa has been on a break from work and having therapy sessions since freezing during a recent robbery and believing she’s lost her ability to carry out the role.

Tonight’s episode began with Carla trying to comfort Lisa as she prepared for another therapy session.

“I know I’m not myself, I can’t shake it off,” she told her partner, adding that she might be done with her job.

A concerned Carla was preoccupied at work, as Michael Bailey popped in for a favour, wanting to print something from her computer.

As Carla left him to her laptop to make tea, Michael saw a letter on her screen arranging to visit Logan Radcliffe in prison, with the intention of getting Lisa answers for her wife Becky’s death.

A shocked Michael confronted Carla about her plan and told her it was a bad idea to make contact given the horrid things Logan had done to her, Lisa and Lisa’s daughter Betsy.

“Are you going to tell her?” he questioned Carla, who didn’t respond.

Later, Carla arrived home to a happier Lisa who wanted to make amends for the morning with a takeaway and a bubble bath for Carla.

Lisa told Carla that she was going to put all her energy into getting her career back on track and thanked her for her support.

Carla was relieved, and when Lisa popped out to pick up the takeaway, Carla texted Michael that she wasn’t going to go through with the Logan plan.
