There is panic in the village in Hollyoaks next week as Morgan vanishes without a trace and Frankie Osborne (Isabelle Smith) and Jacob Omari (Ethaniel Davy) are left in shock.
With Morgan set to start school during the week in question, Nancy and Darren (Jessica Fox and Ashley Taylor Dawson) make it their mission to spoil her.
When the toddler trips, Clare Devine (Gemma Bissix) rushes to her aid, much to the horror of Darren and Nancy, urging her to stay away from their child.
Later, Frankie is tasked with looking after Morgan. She’s at Basswood Road with Jacob. The pair, who recently declared their feelings for one another, are planning on getting intimate and thus Jacob heads off to buy protection.
However, he forgets his wallet and when Frankie puts two and two together, she sets off with it to meet him half way.
But upon returning home, she is horrified to discover that the front door has been broken into – and things take a turn for the worse when she realises that Morgan is missing.
In emotional scenes, Frankie is tasked with breaking the heartwrenching news to Nancy.
Later, the Osbornes are in a panic as they desperately attempt to locate Morgan. With the police notified, Donny Clarke (Louis Emerick) takes charge and asks questions in a bid to get to the bottom of what happened to Morgan.
Worried, Frankie reckons that Jacob should lie and say that they were home the whole time. Darren, meanwhile, wonders if Jacob was involved in the abduction and is somehow still under the trafficking gang’s control.

His suspicions are intensified when Jacob receives a text from Clare, leading to the whole Osborne clan turning on him.
Nancy, Jack (Jimmy McKenna) and Pearl Anderson (Dawn Hope) all say a prayer and light candles, desperately hoping for Morgan’s safe return.
Darren, meanwhile, is hellbent on proving that Clare was involved in Morgan’s disappearance and thus he lures her to a storage container when no else is around.
And when he doesn’t return home overnight, Nancy is worried sick. At the container, Darren interrogates Clare, determined to get to the bottom of what transpired.
Donny, however, is on the case as, with Clare having failed to return home – thus breaking her bail conditions – he is determined to track her down.
The question is: will he succeed? And if so, will Darren be in trouble?
That remains to be seen. Back at Basswood Road, Nancy receives a visit from the family liaison officer Annie but will they be able to track down Morgan?
Just who is responsible for her abduction? Is Clare in on it like Darren reckons? Or is someone else entirely to blame?
Elsewhere in the village…
Froggy Black (John Middleton) is released and manipulates Darren into giving Rex Gallagher (Jonny Labey) a job. Clare, meanwhile, begs Grace (Tamara Wall) to stick to their plan and plead not guilty. Froggy is determined to reunite the family but Clare gives him the cold shoulder.
Darren and Misbah encourages Diane to visit Tony, knowing he’d be the first out there looking for Morgan if it was possible.
Marie coos over baby clothes and Misbah reveals she wishes she had grandchildren.
