Coronation Street fans think they have worked out how Amy Barlow came to be spiked.
During Monday night's trip to the cobbles, viewers of the ITV soap saw the 18-year-old a bit tipsy as she headed into Weatherfield High's Valentine's Day dance.
She arrived with an equally tipsy Asha Alahan, as well as pal Summer Spellman and Asha's brother Aadi was already there.
Asha was soon filling in her twin on Amy's new boyfriend - Jacob Hay - and Amy was keen to leave the party and head to a club.

While the others weren't so sure, the decision was soon made for them when Daniel Osbourne noticed Asha swaying and worked out she and Amy had been drinking and kicked them out.
Amy met up with Jacob at the club who had fake ID for Asha and Summer had already bailed.
But as the daughter of Steve and Tracy McDonald made her way into the venue, she appeared worse for wear and had to grip onto a barrier to walk herself in.
Later, Corrie viewers saw Jacob helping Amy outside, unable to stand up on her own.
The former drug runner knew something wasn't right and was soon shouting at Asha to ring an ambulance as Amy collapsed onto the floor.
An ambulance arrived and the Asha soon pointed the finger of blame at Jacob because of his past and over at the hospital, Steve and Tracy were beside themselves as Amy remained unconscious.
It was revealed that Amy had GBH in her system which mixed with alcohol can prove deadly.
The episode ended with Jacob telling Steve and Tracy he wouldn't hurt Amy and she's his girlfriend.
And fans already believe they know who spiked Amy - and that the drug wasn't actually meant for her.
