Ollie Morgan is plotting revenge against returning character Stephen MacGregor in Hollyoaks.

After briefly being referenced last summer, the notorious villain is now being lured back to the village by Luke's son Ollie under false pretence to pay for his crimes.

In Tuesday's first-look episode, Ollie's girlfriend Becky remained defiant in her ignorance after a threat from Honour of being reported for a hate crime.

The new plot was jump-started when Becky was searching in Cindy's home to find Luke a paintbrush, but instead found the letters Cindy had been secretly writing to Stephen MacGregor.

"There's not just one [letter], there's loads. She's been proper cosying up to him," Becky told a stunned Ollie.

In a confrontation, Cindy explained that she was trying to control a volatile situation because Stephen had been writing letters to Luke.

"One letter, that is all you needed. 'Stay away,'" Ollie insisted.

When Cindy tried to tell Ollie about Becky racially abusing Serena, he shot back that Cindy is "a liar". Later, even Becky was shocked to find out Ollie was pretending to be Luke in messages to Stephen in order to get him to come back.

"After tomorrow, he's going to wish he never met me," Ollie threatened.

Meanwhile, Stephen was shown all throughout the scene practising throwing jabs at a punching bag — before messaging 'Luke' back that he's ready to meet up.
