Poor Tracey, desperate to be loved. Will take any fella she can get.
This has more to do with escaping to keep Amy than love for Rob or any man. When Tracy had to choose between Amy or Rob she not only chose Amy but told the cops where to find Rob.
I think there's a bit of both going on. Tracy chose Amy over Rob before, and she's trying to save her now...but she also had strong feelings for Rob, enough that she almost ran away with him before. She's also recently come to feel that the man she sees as her father not only doesn't really love her but believes she could have attacked him. Her brother doesn't care about taking her livelihood away from her, and her other family members may have attacked Ken, or at the very least can't be trusted.
She's realizing she's truly on her own, and there's Rob. His white horse might be a prison van, but he wants to help her, which is more than she's getting from anyone else at the moment. Combined with their history, I could see why she would want to cling to him as much as to Amy right now.
That's all very true, however, if Tracy didn't think Amy was in danger, though she would definitely help Rob because she loved him, I don't think she'd grab Amy and go on the run with him.
If she owned the Flower Shop she could hide him indefinitely. Pity that didn't happen. I can't believe Ken offered to loan Leanne 90000 to buy into the Bistro yet he turned down Tracy because Peter would use the money to buy the pub. Why should Peter's alcoholism become an obstacle in Tracy's life? That really is playing favorites.
I think Ken used that as an excuse not to loan her the money. It would have been interesting t to see Tracy approach Rob for a loan, given that he only has the Bistro because of her getting the money for it.
Sorry should have typed Robert, not Rob. Too many of them in her life!
Robert is such a hypocrite, he'd say he wouldn't want to reward her by acknowledging he owes her a favor. Any decent person would have given back the Bistro so I know he's a louse.
I forgot about the ten grand that Tracy gave Robert (that she got from Carla) did he give it back? Is that what she used to set up her shop.
I think that Tracy always needs a little excitement, live a little closer to the edge. But...I don't think she went with Rob for that reason alone. She thinks that Amy tried to kill Ken and wants to save her, she probably regrets calling the cops on Rob. I think a nice quiet life is what she craves, acquires, and then screws it up again.
If Robert paid her back, I never saw it. He had no money after his divorce or he could have opened his own small place instead of getting hired by Nick.
Also, the flower shop was opened before he knew that Tracy blackmailed Carla into getting him the Bistro.
Tracy probably just sold all her old shop's inventory to start this new business.All she owns is,at most, a couple of thousand in flowers and refrigerating units.If Robert had paid her back I assume she'd have been able to put a down payment on the building and get a mortgage for the rest without asking Ken for help.
