Terry, meanwhile, tries cheating Jack and Vera again of their takings earned from the Rovers when Jack gives him some money in an envelope to deposit into the bank. Terry, intending to take the money and leave, discovers the envelope contains only plain pieces of paper. He returns the Rovers, enraged that there was no money in the envelope. Jack reveals he knew Terry would run off with the money and set a trap for him. Feeling disgraced, Terry leaves once again. 1999–2012 Terry reappears in August 1999 and buys his mother Vera a posh car. The car is revealed as being a death trap when it is involved in a car crash which indirectly resulted in the death of Judy Mallett the following month. On Christmas Day, Terry interrupts a Christmas dinner and is punched by Judy's husband Gary for causing Judy's death. Jack then tells his son how much misery he had brought down on Gary, and told him to never return to Coronation Street again.

In November 2000, when his son Paul needed a kidney transplant, Terry returned and offered to be a donor for a price. But once he received the money he does a runner, leaving his mother Vera to donate instead. Reading a letter penned to him by Vera in case the worst should happen, she admitted to Jack a fling early in their marriage which cast doubt on Terry's paternity. Jack admits to Curly that he knew of the affair, but also had no doubt in his mind that Terry was his son as he reminded Jack too much of himself.

Terry, in a rare show of heart, returns to the hospital to make sure his mother was okay before disappearing once again. Jack and Vera hear Terry once again when he is imprisoned again in October 2001.
