Tracy's also not pleased next week when she finds out that Simon's been hitting Amy. As you can imagine, she's, ooh, ever so slightly vexed.
Does this herald the return of toxic Tracy? Let's hope so! About time too!
In order to win Robert's attention back from Leanne and Simon, Tracy gets dolled up to sit in the Bistro, hoping to win Robert's forgiveness. But then Tracy spots Leanne talking to Robert and she flies into a jealous rage, laying into Leanne and calling Simon a thug. Robert's furious and, telling her she's gone too far, he throws her out.
Then, Robert stays out all night and switches off his phone. Tracy calls in at the Bistro and apologises to him, begging him to come home. Meanwhile, although Simon apologises to Amy, Tracy's unimpressed and she has a go at Leanne - but Leanne bites back. Robert gives Tracy a piece of his mind. Humiliated, Tracy collars Leanne in the street and orders her to stay away from Robert – or else.

I wasn't aware Toxic Tracy had ever left! Well maybe for about half an episode.
ReplyDeleteI do hope Leanne does lure Robert away, if only for the sparks that will fly between her and Tracy.
I can't really imagine Leanne being much of a temptation for any man.
ReplyDeleteHaving said that, I'm sure Robert will eventually dump Tracy for someone else. But maybe not for who she thinks.
I don't blame Tracy for being furious at Simon's bad behaviour, she would never be abusive to anyone. Oh wait....And I understand Robert completely for throwing her out, shouting at a child is going too far, I mean cold-bloodied murder is forgivable but this...
ReplyDeleteHow old is Simon now, 14? Not a child. Amy is, and she's smaller than him. Violent behavior could get him sent to juvie if she weren't family.
ReplyDeleteWish Leanne would talk to Gail instead of kind but inexperienced non-parents Eva, Zeedan and Ken (he shipped his kids off). She should know that her ex MIL went through it with David. Surely she has some insight.
Almost forgot. Robert is dull with Tracy but he does seem to be a kind person. If he can make Simon see sense (they'll be under the same roof), maybe he might work better with Leanne.
ReplyDeletePlease send Simon off to live with his grandparents...whatever happened to them anyway?
ReplyDeleteSimon shouldn't have come back. Going off to Peter's was a natural conclusion to young Simon's storyline. He could have returned as a 16 year old with lots of problems.
ReplyDeleteTracy ought to leave, too. She's a one-note character which is fine if you like the tune. I don't so not a bit interested in her and drippy Robert.
Simon's 12 and Amy's 11. But he's a boy and is growing fast and strong.
ReplyDeleteI think Robert and Leanne might work well. He's boring as mud with Tracy.
I like Robert and was surprised that he actually was in love with Tracy-Luv. He is too good for her and I'm sure he will dump her to be with someone else eventually, but Leanne?? I'm not too sure. He deserves a really good decent woman, with a great sense of humour and common sense. Maybe it should have been Eva, but there are sparks between Eva & Aidan, so either way I'm not too sure. Anybody but Leanne.
ReplyDeleteAre we taking bets yet on when Robert will go to the police with what he knows about Tracy having caused the fire?
ReplyDeleteSo we're to believe that Robert carried that torch for Tracy all through a divorce and another marriage, but the torch can be doused by Leanne? Not buying it.
ReplyDeleteI think that Tracey has doused Robert's torch all on her own. He probably sees her true colours and realizes what a nasty, dangerous cow she is. I agree with all above who say he's too good for Tracey.
ReplyDeleteIf he does get with Leanne, he could be a good father figure to Simon, which may settle him.
