I can’t stay on the farm. I can’t stay in the village. I never wanna see him again! (3 of 3)

So we come to the last scenes of our Christopher as Robert 😭. Robert assures Jack he’s not gonna jump (if it was anyone, it would be Andy and he’d be pushing him 😏). Robert no longer sees Andy as his brother and finds it hard to believe anything after all the lies he’s been told. Jack gives his excuses about protecting Andy, the less people knew the better, blah blah blah. Jack admits that Richie knows (but not that Cain knows as well - still lying to your son, eh). Robert refuses to go home or to Kathy’s for a day or two. Robert is not going back ‘full stop’ as long as Andy is around. In the end, Robert agrees to stay with Annie and leave that evening not the next day.

Jack: Look I’m sorry. I know it’s hurt ya. But I did it for the right reasons. I had to keep the family together.

Robert: Family!?! I don’t even know what that means anymore.

Jack: Look, let’s go back to the farm and talk about this.

Robert: I don’t wanna go back to the farm.

Jack: Well you can’t stop here.

Robert: I’M NOT GOING BACK TO THE FARM!

Loved her?! You killed her! You’re just like your old man you, aren’t ya? Just like your old man. (1 of 3)

A continuation of the previous episode’s last scene. Robert is appalled by Andy having started the fire for insurance money. Sarah was never Andy’s mum, Robert says, as his real mum ditched him for a drunken mum and dodgy dad and Andy’s just like his dad. Jack goes after Robert who hides when Jack almost comes across him in the wooded area.

Jack: Andy’s told him the truth about the fire. They had a fight and Robert’s disappeared.

Richie: Oh, right.

Jack: I’m just worried he might do something stupid.

Richie: Hang on mate, I’ll get my coat.

Goodbye, Robert ‘Christopher Smith’ Sugden

Here is the final scene of Christopher’s marking the end of the longest run of any actor that played the role. You will be missed and you (both the actor and character) deserved better.

Stop beating yourself up. It’s not your fault. 😒 (2 of 3)

Jack takes Victoria first to Kathy (who is clearly too busy) then to Diane (who was having a meal with a now not-so-happy Alan) so that Andy can get involved in looking for Robert with Richie. Meanwhile, Robert runs into the woods where there is a rusted sign saying DANGER KEEP OUT (no information in wiki where this is). Andy is kicking himself for telling Robert and worries he’ll do something stupid (‘I’ll never forgive meself’ - yeah, you would). But Richie is all, don’t blame yourself kid, he’s just upset (give me a break, he lost his mum because of him, Richie). Andy has a eureka moment where Robert will be, a place where he used to go as a kid. Jack goes on on his own and finds Robert on top of a wooded cliff…
