Louise is wracked with guilt about leaving Diane in the lurch over the festive period - but as the nightmare continues, nothing could convince her to stay. Meanwhile, Terry lurches from one temporary home to another. After being given his marching orders by Bob, Terry is relieved when Alan agrees to put a roof over his head. He still can’t resist Louise, however, and after spotting her in the street, he decides to confront her about her decision to leave Emmerdale. But his actions just spook her further and, as she makes to run away, he reaches out to grab hold of her to stop her fleeing. Outside The Woolpack, her struggles are witnessed and Donna promptly calls the police, while passers-by free Louise from Terry's clutches.
