The Teenager was present at Weatherfield Police Station in the early hours of Christmas Day 1988, when Ken Barlow went there with Tracy to report Deirdre Barlow missing. The girl walked past Ken at the front desk when she was being escorted into a room by a policewoman, presumably to be interviewed over an unspecified crime. The policewoman asked the girl where she lived, to which the crying teen's reply was "my dad's going to kill me".
