Hollyoaks spoilers follow for Monday’s (August 24) episode that is now available to view on Channel 4 streaming. The episode in question will air on E4 on at 7pm.
The twists just keep coming down Hollyoaks way, with another pretty big one served up courtesy of Jenson Cole (Ryan Clayton), who stumbled upon something that Warren Fox (Jamie Lomas) has been looking for for weeks.
Warren, as viewers know, got his hands on a bunch of crypto wallets owned by Gemma Johnson (Tisha Merry), which he and Mercedes McQueen (Jennifer Metcalfe) reckon are the key to their fresh start in Miami.
There was just one pretty big snag – they didn’t know the seed phrases needed to access the digital money.
Warren and Mercedes’ problems went from bad to worse earlier in the month when someone – aka Jenson – broke into their flat to get his hands on the crypto wallets.
Jenson later confirmed to Warren that, despite the attempt he made on his life, he is still alive – and he wants to get to know him properly as a big brother.
But a huge twist followed, with subsequent scenes confirming that Jenson was an undercover cop hellbent on taking down both Warren and Gemma.
After Jenson outed her as the ringleader of the gang operation who possess the crypto wallets, Gemma headed back to the flat where Rex Gallagher (Jonny Labey) and grandad Froggy Black (John Middleton) resided previously to shred documents containing information she didn’t want to slip into the wrong hands.
Later, she gifted Donny Clarke (Louis Emerick) with a painting to celebrate his success at the force. The painting was a particularly odd one – one that Donny and Misbah Maalik (Harvey Virdi) didn’t quite know what to make of – but they accepted the present and popped it up on the wall.
Gemma, meanwhile, slept with Jenson in subsequent scenes and things took yet another unexpected turn when Jenson glared at the new painting on the wall – which led to him making quite the discovery.
The painting in question contains a series of smaller images inside the larger one – and Jneson came to realise that the images in question represent the seed phrases needed to access the crypto wallets.
‘Gotcha!’, he said with a smile.
The question is: just what does Jenson intend on doing with the seed phrases? Will he use the information to ensure Gemma is taken down? Or does he want the fortune for himself?
