Jacob Gallagher is hiding a worrying secret from his loved ones in next week's Emmerdale.
The schoolboy is preparing to receive his GCSE exam results, but expectations are low after his affair with his teacher derailed his studies.
David Metcalfe and Leyla Harding pray that their son has done enough to progress, but sadly his results are disappointing.
Jacob's parents and grandfather Eric Pollard try to buoy him up by organising a family fun day and playing cricket in the garden.
But astunned David and Leyla are in disbelief over what they discover about Jacob.
However, they are all unaware that Jacob is still secretly planning to run away with Maya Stepney again.
Maya is still in prison for child abuse, but Jacob wants to rekindle their romance when she is released.
The troubled teenager still longs to be with his teacher and keeps his future plans with evil Maya to himself.
After the bad news about Jacob's exams, Priya Sharma invites her ex-boyfriend's son over for lunch.
A sympathetic Priya attempts to cheer up Jacob, who is her daughter's older brother, but her plan backfires.
The pair get into a heated row and stunned Priya is left dumbfounded by his behaviour.
After exchanging words, furious Jacob stands up and walks off in a huff.
Will Jacob's loved ones discover what he is planning?
