We pick up in today's episode back by the pond (although not Snyder Pond, I don't think; apparently Oakdale has many ponds to choose from to play host to relationship drama), and Luke opens up to Noah about how after being pushed away with both hands, he made himself stop pining after Noah. Meanwhile, Reid is picking up the pining slack as he mopes

I think there are so many layers to that moment. Yeah, you're right in that he'd never hurt Luke (on purpose), but also I think that's totally Woobie!Reid right there. He's sure that she has nothing to worry about from him, because Luke's at the pond with Noah, and he's outta the game. :( :( :( Reiddddddddd!!!!
and I think Reid just wants to stop putting himself through the torture of wanting Luke so desperately.
Me, too! Me, too!! :( Poor Reid!!!! Gahhhh!!!

I SECOND THIS MOTION.
Thank you for your fantastic commentary as well!
his "you have nothing to worry about from me," gets to me...not sure why.
Me too. He's so vulnerable there. He really thinks that he doesn't have a chance of actually getting Luke. And he'd never hurt Luke.

This line and when Lily tells Noah that if he lets Luke off the hook that he might not come back are really insightful lines and they make me want to like Lily again.
The line where Lily tells Reid that some decisions come back to haunt you [which I'm reading as her saying Luke choosing him would haunt Luke] and the line where she says "Noah is JUST AS MUCH my son as Luke is," remind me that I find Lily as annoying as heck. I don't mind Lily loving Noah. Given that she probably doesn't know the FULL details of Noah's douchitude even makes her love for him admirable. But Luke is her son, Noah isn't. The ten minute adoption of Noah isn't the same thing as raising Luke for the last 20 some years.
