Hollyoaks' Toby and Celeste Faroe's latest ploy to fool the Deveraux family goes disastrously wrong

Lisa gets the wrong impression.

Toby Faroe has majorly messed up his and Celeste's plot against the Deverauxs in Hollyoaks.

The Faroes have been trying to turn the Deverauxs against one another for months now, with Toby (Bobby Gordon) resorting to seducing Lisa Loveday (Rachel Adedeji) in hopes of getting inside information.

Fans have theorised that there may be more than meets to eye with the couple. While it's been confirmed that Toby is Martine's (Kéllé Bryan) long-lost son and Mitchell's twin (Imran Adams), some suspect that Celeste is also related rather than Toby's wife.

In Wednesday's (March 4) first-look episode on E4, the Faroes started the next step of their plan by staging an argument in order to lure Lisa into their clutches.

Sure enough, Lisa rushed to defend Toby when Celeste refused to let him see his 'dad' — and then Celeste really drew her in with a low blow that deliberately referenced the death of Lisa's father Louis Loveday.

"I don't care if his dad was dead and his body was left in the river to rot," Celeste fumed while walking away.

Her words left Lisa shaken, allowing Toby to move in by telling her that she looks "beautiful when you cry" and inviting her out for dinner on the down-low.

At the dinner, it was Toby who slipped by revealing to Lisa that he knew Martine "wasn't there" for Mitchell when he was a child.

When Toby tried to back-track, Lisa insisted: "I know exactly why you're asking about Auntie Martine! You brought me here to suss her out, didn't you? Because you've got the hots for her… Why you take Martine out for a sleazy dinner?

"She'll be back with Mitchell on Monday. I'm not a part of your game anymore!"

While Celeste thinks the couple are "one step closer to happy families", Toby was genuinely concerned about Lisa believing he was romantically attracted to the woman who gave him up all those years ago.

This storyline could come to a head next week when Toby makes shock plans to reveal his true identity to the Deveraux family once and for all.
