Coronation Street villain Pat (played by Connor McIntyre) appeared to be killed off after Eileen Grimshaw (Sue Cleaver) failed to rescue him from a cliff edge.
As he plunged into the sea, it appeared all hope was lost for the resident builder.
However, Monday’s ITV viewers were delivered an almighty bombshell when they found him holed-up in a quaint seaside cottage.
With Pat’s return to Weatherfield imminent, who will he choose to exact revenge on?
It seems the possibilities are endless as Pat has certainly made a lot of enemies on the street.
Fans would be foolish to not expect him to go after wife, Eileen, first.
She could have helped him up the cliff-edge but instead chose to let him fall.
Surely this would be enough for the murderer to find a reason to kill her?
However, another good bet would be in the Windass family.
Now the police know what Pat has been up to, Anna (Debbie Rush) will surely get out of jail.
Coronation Street fans are certainly desperate to see one final and almighty showdown with Pat’s nemesis.
Should she not get out of jail, will her son, Gary (Mikey North), take the flack instead?
Naturally protective of her mother, it seems Pat could try to stop him from spreading any more truths.
And the pair have been at loggerheads for months.
Will they have another battle? And with Pat becoming desperate, will he end Gary for good?
Finally, Tim Metcalfe (Joe Duttine) has been instrumental in his downfall after gaining Pat’s confession.
Viewers will remember it was Tim who told Eileen about the monstrous nature of her husband.
Surely Pat will want to end the builder after all of his mischievous ways.
However, will someone get to Pat before he even has the chance to claim another victim?
Coronation Street continues tomorrow on ITV at 7.30pm and 8.30pm.
