Theo Hawthorne (William Ellis) has been making Stacey Slater\u2019s (Lacey Turner) life hell in EastEnders, and soon she is set to discover his latest stunt to humiliate her.<\/p>\n
Stacey learnt that Theo was her sinister stalker during a confrontation at home, while 13-year-old Lily (Lillia Turner) was giving birth in the next room. She was horrified to realise that her daughter\u2019s tutor had been the man sending her threatening notes and lingerie in the post.<\/p>\n
He soon turned nasty, and Stacey, along with Martin Fowler and Eve Unwin (James Bye and Heather Peace) had to fight to get him out of the house.<\/p>\n
Determined not to give in, Theo went to horrifying lengths to be around Stacey, by buying the house next door to hers, leaving her terrified when he spoke to her over the garden wall.<\/p>\n

In order to try and put a stop to his behaviour, Stacey and Jack Branning (Scott Maslen) decided to go about getting an interim stalking protection order put into place.<\/p>\n
With Stacey set to call on the Walford community for their support, Theo takes drastic action of his own to get back at her, and prove that he is always one step ahead.<\/p>\n

As Stacey prepares for the court case against Theo in upcoming scenes, she is horrified when Martin arrives clutching a Secret Cam poster and reveals that they have been plastered all over the Square.<\/p>\n
Stacey is beyond furious, and immediately heads out to confront him.<\/p>\n
However, when she spots him leaving for the court, smartly dressed and ready for a fight, she grows nervous once more.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
It hits her that Theo\u2019s image may make the magistrate think better of him, and she soon decides that she is going to speak at the hearing.<\/p>\n
As she arrives, family in tow, DS Garrett is laying out the case against Theo, explaining Stacey\u2019s side of things.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
However, when Theo\u2019s solicitor, Mr Rath, addresses the court, he tears apart Stacey\u2019s character and reputation, and she can\u2019t hold back any longer\u2026<\/p>\n
When the magistrate finally comes to a decision, the outcome has far reaching consequences for Stacey, though Theo is determined that it won\u2019t change anything between them.<\/p>\n
Completely delusional, he is convinced that Stacey loves him as much as he loves her and that they are destined to be together.<\/p>\n
It soon becomes clear just how sure he is of this when he later breaks in Stacey\u2019s house, and a horrifying incident unfolds\u2026<\/p>\n
