And Everybody's Love Life is a B.H.M. - Today's Recap, 5/19/10
BHM = BIG HOT MESS!!!
So I called Honey from work today and asked her to tell me about the boys in today's ep, and when I asked her if Reid and Luke had a "heart to heart", she said no, and I was disappointed. But after watching today's show, I'm not upset anymore, 'cause the heart to heart is happening tomorrow! LOL. I didn't know we were getting two days of the boys, so I'm happy! Especially since this episode just left off right in the fricking middle of the boys' damn conversation! WTH?!
Anyway, speaking of them, let's start with Reid. He was like a bear with a sore ass today, wasn't he? Geez. What an attitude! :-P What happened? Last time he and Luke were on, he was all, "I loooove you, be with meeeeeee!" (okay, that might be an exaggeration), and today he was like, "I HATE EVERYONE! THE WORLD SHOULD DIE!" and Luke was like ?! in return. LOL.
Okay, so...Reid tells Luke to keep his mouth shut about whatever the hell's been going on between the two of them when it comes to Noah because he thinks that if Noah finds out, he'll push both of them away, and Reid needs to be there to help Noah along in his recovery. I suppose I can understand that - Reid not wanting anything to impede on Noah's eyesight (and especially the whole thing about admitting to Noah that they almost bonked each other when he was unconscious...err, that would most likely be bad idea, though waiting to tell him will most likely also be a bad idea...it's kind of like a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" type situation...) - but I'm kinda surprised that Reid wants to keep his "relationship" or whatever with Luke a secret, nonetheless. Especially since it's driving him crazy to keep seeing Luke and Noah together being all sweet and adorable with one another.
Oh, men. Why do they do this? When they get jealous, instead of just fricking admitting it and letting it go, they treat the person they care about like crap, and everybody gets hurt. And it's only because they're not being honest in the first place. If Reid just said, "Yeah, I'm jealous as hell," then Luke would understand where he's coming from, and it might garner him some sympathy. Instead, Luke's just getting more and more confused by the moment, because one day Reid's kissing him and the next day he's tearing into him with all he's got. :-/ See? Men are dumb. :-P
Okay, so...the boys. OMG I love having my Noah back. He's different, but still the same. :-P He feels new to me, but there's so much of that old Noah Mayer that I love still in him. And today, when he told Luke that he loved him and Luke said, "I love you too," back? GYARGH. Epic cuteness. I had to rewind and watch again before I even finished the episode. ♥_♥ And when Luke asked if he could take Noah outside? Squee! Even though we only got half a conversation, I totally enjoyed them sitting on the ground together (even though Luke's a little aloof right now). Did you notice how Noah put his hand on Luke's arm when they were talking? Hee. I think, more than anything else, I love how comfortable the two of them are with each other. I'm talking Luke and Noah, and Van and Jake. And they manage to pull it off even when half of them (that is, Luke, in this instance) is supposed to NOT be confortable. LOL. Does that make sense? There's a coherency between them even when things aren't hunky dory. :-) Oh, boys.
But dammit! My life would be so much easier if I hated Reid, or if I hated Noah. Since I love all three of them, and I enjoy both couples, I'm having a hell of a time with this storyline! Shit, guys. I'm twisted all over the place. :-P Still, I gotta say (and I might be biased), that this storyline is the hottest one on the show at the moment. I mean, seriously...Gabriel who?
:-P
Oh, and I have to say YAY REID AND KATIE SCENE! I was going to mention how much I've been missing Reid's interaction with other characters on the show. I'm glad we got Reid and Katie today, even if it was brief (and Reid was a total sad panda). I did like his, "I'm busy," line when he was clearly doing nothing. :-P I kinda wish he'd gone with Katie to pick up Jacob, though...that coulda been cute. Oh, well. Next time, when Reid's not PMS-ing better than every chick I know. :-P
And for more upset? FRIGGING BARBARA AND HENRY. DAMN YOU TWO...DAMN YOU TO HELLLLLLLL!
Ahem. :-P
Have to say, though...I'm loving the soapy drama of their triangle almost as much as the one with the boys. I have to admit that Vienna's totally dropped like...ten THOUSAND notches on my favourite characters list, but I like the tension she's creating between Barbara and Henry, 'cause I'm hoping that soon the tension will break and Henry will flee to Barbara's side and declare his undying love for her. Or something akin to that that's a little less cheesy. :-P
Poor Barbara today, though...she was so upset when she got back to her room! T_T Ahh, Henry, you see what you do to this poor woman? And FOR REAL, get a damn paternity test! Vienna's faith be damned! Who cares if she thinks you don't trust her? You shouldn't! She's most likely carrying someone else's baby!
And CASEY! ARGH, CASEY. I love you, but you are a BUTTHEAD. DO YOU HEAR ME? A BUTTHEAD! I'm really glad that he stopped snarking at Ali long enough to give her a sincere thank you for worrying about him. And DUDE...Ali's totally right! And I think I've forgiven her mostly for the whole Mick thing *twitch* so I would like to see her happy. I think she still loves Casey...and I think he still loves her, too. C'mon you two, work it out!
Try to see it my way / do I have to keep on talking till I can't go on? / While you see it your way / run the risk of knowing that our love may soon be gone...
We can work it out...we can work it ouuu~t...
Ha.
Also, gotta mention how out of place yesterday's episode feels now in comparison to today's. dreamer_98 mentioned to me how yesterday's ep was filmed much closer to it's air date, as opposed to weeks in advance like usual, and I think you could really tell by today's episode. Yesterday's was just kinda wedged in there with no concern for continuity. :-P
Also? Barbara throwing out her dance competition trophy made me sad. :-( They were so cute when they danced at Metro. T_T Don't throw your memories away, Barbara!
Oh, and Noah and Ali gosspiy-roommate chats FTW! Yeah! I loved that little scene! The two of them are in such similar situations and could really use each other's support. I'm really glad the writers seem to be branching out and mixing it up with the boys lately. YAY! What an effing adorable and fun scene for all of us! (Even if they were talking about how shitty their love lives are, heh.) :-D
And now Katie and Chris, with a side of Ali.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but moving the box full of tapes out from in front of the vent in the tape vault before trying to climb through it would have been a better idea, yes? No wonder the two of them fell on their asses. What were they expecting, really?
But, sad Katie makes me sad. :-( She told Chris about seeing Brad's ghost, and how they spent Christmas Eve together and then said goodbye. T_T I still cannot talk about that Christmas episode with Brad. It seriously mangled my heart. :-( I want Katie to be happy, and Chris is a great guy, but FOR REAL I want Simon to come back! I don't think it's going to happen, but Simon stole my heart ther last time he was in Oakdale, and I think he and Katie would be so great together (again). He was just what Katie needed when she needed it, and he could be again! But if Ali gets back with Casey (wishful thinking on my part), then that leaves Chris open for Katie. Le sigh. Drama everywhere! :-)
I love it, don't you? :-P
Tomorrow looks good, although we've got more Gabriel/Craig/Lily/Margo *headdesk*. Can this storyline get a move on, please? :-P
