Thinking drugs might make the hallucinations go away, the teenage killer took some to try and dull his pain before heading to the nearby train station.
The ghost of Lucy then motioned for Bobby to follow her as he wandered out on to the train tracks.
Luckily, Bobby was saved from death by a gallant Callum Highway who stopped him getting hit by a high speed train in the dark tunnel.
But could he be heading down the same dark route again in the wake of Dotty’s rejection?
