Carla Connor is known as a woman of steel, having overcome all sorts of hardships in life.

But this time, her enemy is a familiar face – Becky Swain, Lisa’s ex-girlfriend.

When Becky kidnaps her and locks her in a cold room, Carla understands that Becky not only wants revenge, but wants her to endure every moment of survival in fear.

Becky takes away Carla’s medication – the crucial immunosuppressant needed after two kidney transplants.

The scene of Carla trembling in the darkness, desperately calling out Lisa’s name, leaves the audience breathless. The director skillfully places Becky outside the door, listening to Carla weaken, her face a mixture of satisfaction and guilt. It’s an haunting feeling that makes viewers both hate and pity her – a villain who isn’t simply evil, but is tormented by her own ruined past.

Meanwhile, Lisa realizes the truth too late. She tries to call the police, but the car loses control and all signals cut off. Amidst the chaos, Carla tries to break the door to escape but collapses from exhaustion. The lights flicker, and Becky panics. The final scene in the episode before Corriedale occurs shows Carla’s eyes fading, and Becky screaming in the pouring rain: “Don’t die, Carla, I don’t want you to die… not now!” – leaving the audience in breathtaking shock.
