Yeah, but Bobby getting out is a little too big for him to just be forgotten about by Ian on the outside otherwise they could just keep him inside.
Then again, this is the show that had Ian ignore a phone call from Jane who he had been frantically trying to find after Max almost killed her and she disappeared because Mel, who he hadn't seen for 16 years, walked into the cafe.
And the show that had him forget Steven was dead the episode after it happened.
