Coronation Street has shown Becky crossing line after line over the past few weeks. She isolated Carla, kept her away from Lisa and Betsy, inserted herself where she didn’t belong, and deliberately disrupted Lisa’s relationship. Now, she has gone a step further by trying to set the house on fire. And the real consequences can no longer be avoided.
Becky Tries to Set the House on Fire
Becky took things to a new level when she tried to set the house on fire. She turned up wearing her usual clothes with a balaclava on, clearly trying to hide who she was. She had already unlocked the door, which makes it obvious this wasn’t a last-minute decision. What made the scene even stranger was how quickly she ripped the balaclava off. It felt like someone who thought she’d get away with it.
Trying to start a fire puts everyone inside that house in real danger. This comes after weeks of Becky hovering around Carla and keeping her separated from Lisa and Betsy. She has repeatedly put herself in the middle and made sure she stays in control of who gets access to Carla, and this latest move fits that pattern.
Consequences Are Finally Lining Up
Before the fire attempt, Becky had already crossed lines. She deliberately stayed over with Lisa, and it didn’t come across as a harmless mistake. The timing made it clear she was trying to pull Lisa away from Carla while Carla remained isolated. Becky hasn’t stepped back once. Each time, she has pushed things a bit further; first emotional manipulation, then interference in relationships, and now something that could have ended far worse.
The escalation has been obvious. Knowing what’s coming next only makes it more unsettling. The Coronation Street-Emmerdale crossover has already shown Becky driving Lisa and Betsy into a crash, leaving them unconscious. Seen alongside the fire attempt, it’s clear Becky’s behaviour is building toward serious consequences.
