Frankie Osborne (Isabelle Smith) will find herself on the receiving end of Jonah Keane’s (Matthew Wolfenden) wrath in Hollyoaks next week when she offers Caleb (Lewis Walton) a glimmer of hope.

Caleb, as viewers know, is being drugged by dad Jonah, who has been keeping a bag of drugs hidden in the bathroom, which he’s been using on his son in a bid to make him think he’s seriously unwell.

Caleb was injured in a car accident back in April but every time his recovery progresses and he contemplates a life beyond the eponymous village, Jonah proceeds to drug him to keep him in under his roof and in need of his dad.

Frankie, who was dating Caleb previously, has been doing work experience at Dee Valley hospital and, growing suspicious of her ex’s condition after he had another seizure, she resolved to get some answers.

Viewers will know that Jonah was responsible for the seizure, drugging Caleb to prevent him going to Switzerland with Maddox (Sam Meyer) to meet his biological family.

When Caleb was hospitalised this past week, Jonah attempted to deter Frankie away from investigating – but such a thing just made Frankie all the more determined to find out what was going on and thus she took a look at Caleb’s results, finding anti-depressants in his system.

Frankie mentioned such a thing to Caleb, which confused him.

Frankie was quick to point the finger at Beth (Rebecca Ryan), accusing her of drugging her son but Jonah jumped in and revealed that it was him, claiming that Caleb is dying.

Frankie was devastated by the revelation, as was Caleb, who was led to believe by Jonah that he’s terminally ill.

Next week, Frankie offers hope to Caleb, locating a clinic in California that are doing experimental drug trials.

Jonah, however, interferes once more, voicing his concerns.

The question is: just how far will Jonah go to stop Frankie from getting involved?

Beth, meanwhile, takes it upon herself to tell Maddox about Caleb’s condition. The news knocks Maddox for six and, devastated, he resolves to move back home with his family.
