Plot
Still troubled by the thought of his dying father and with Lisa’s words ringing in his ears, Zak finally decides the time has come to face his past and visit him. But he isn’t prepared for the sight that greets him when he arrives at the hospice. Jed is weak and decrepit - almost beyond recognition. Upon seeing his son, Jed mumbles about the Dingle inheritance being hidden in South America and insists that Zak should head for Santiago and retrieve the family fortune. Zak is saddened that his father has been reduced to a frail fantasist and reluctantly returns home. Latisha and Jason are busying themselves with plans for a new life in Lisbon. He even offers to take the whole Daggert clan with them - knowing that it will make it easier for Latisha to leave. But Danny is preoccupied by the surprise news that Ollie has decided to follow Marc’s lead and leave Emmerdale. Cynthia is tempted by the offer, but her attempts to seek advice from Terry fall on deaf ears. He has only one thing on his mind - Louise. The continued stalking is taking its toll on Louise and Diane becomes concerned that it is pushing her over the edge. She is frustrated by the lack of action by the police and is even terrified in her own pub. Terry’s presence in The Woolpack doesn’t help and he has a run in with Diane - berating her for accusing him of being the stalker.
