The central conflict in this version of SIDE SHOW is the twins ("normal people in an abnormal situation") vs the world ("they're freaks").

Thus, in this telling, Terry betrays Daisy in the deepest possible way, by revealing that in spite of everything he still sees her as a freak. For her to instantly forgive him might be a great tearjerking moment, but it would probably ring false in a show that's already got built-in problems with suspension of disbelief.
