If anyone thinks Becky is just coming back to demand love, they are wrong.

After her shocking appearance, she immediately gets into a deadly confrontation with DI Costello – the man who was involved in her disappearance years ago.

Costello threatens her to leave Weatherfield, warning: “If you don’t disappear now, next time there will be no miracle to save you.”

But Becky is no longer afraid. She replies in a cold voice: “If I disappear again, Lainey – your daughter – will be the one to suffer the consequences.”

 

The reply makes Costello pale. The two are now not only enemies, but also like two beasts hunting each other in the dark. Becky is keeping a secret that is enough to make Costello lose everything – a file of documents about the shady case that he once hid. And she intends to use it as a survival card.

Meanwhile, Becky began to create the perfect scenario: she pretended to be followed, deliberately panicked, to gain Lisa’s pity and let her stay. “They’re watching me out there,” she cried, “if I leave, I’ll die.” Lisa softened, and Carla was annoyed: “She’s acting, Lisa, open your eyes!” But Becky was too clever. She knew Lisa still owed her affection – and used that affection as bait.

Every night, Becky sent anonymous text messages to herself, pretending to be “threatened”, then ran to Lisa’s room in panic. She hugged Lisa, cried, told her about the years of being chased abroad. Lisa gradually believed it. Carla saw it clearly but could not prove it. The “love – real – fake” war began. And Costello, knowing that Becky was playing a dangerous game, was even more determined to kill her again. Two knives hidden in the dark were waiting to collide – and only one would survive.
