This is because he's done something so irredeemable. He cannot meaningfully interact with any of the other characters and he cannot be a 'bit-part' in another character's storyline as that would be tantamount to condoning what he did, with impunity.
The reduction of his contact time with Jack will mean fewer confrontations with Tony and the Archer family; does this herald his gradual departure?
Either that or, as you say, he's going to do something dangerous / insane after being foiled, and he'll be dispatched fairly pronto.
Rob will still be mentioned in absentia, and as Jack grows up he will probably crop up at key moments to cause tension. Jack or Henry will obviously have 'issues' and that will give narrative fodder for the future too.”
I am wondering whether Helen taking up driving again is foreshadowing?
Will deranged Rob interfere with her car (brakes?) when he knows she will be driving alone, in the hopes that she will be killed?
His delusional mind might convince himself that this is the best chance for him to secure both children into his care once Helen is dead??
I so wanted to hear Rob and Ursula ranting in the Family court
Especially Arse-hag. She must have been livid!
