Kinda ridiculous how much I heart this ep, ya'll. Even though it traumatized me adksjfas.
E: I don't think any of that's relative, Holden. You all want the same thing.
You tell him, Emma! I'm still on Holden's side for the most part; I'd be worried about my wife, too, etc. And lord knows focusing on Damian is easier than thinking about what horrors your son and his one true luv could be going through. But, omg, it's been days of Holden saying the. same things. over and over. Now I just wanna punch him in the face.
Also, I love that Holden calls her mama. *random happy place*
And I'm gonna take an extra minute here and wallow in that happy place. Things go to hell soon enough. :\
Well, okay. That's not random or anything. I love how like, Zoe travels with her Shrine o' Mom.
N: WTF! What. is. she. doing?
L: I don't know; I can't make out the photo.
Really? Cos you're like two feet away from it there, Luke.
Okay, okay. So it's prolly Zoe's ass in the way, but that still made me chuckle, heh.
N: I think it's some kind of shrine.
Zoe: Happy birthday, mama. .. I have the best birthday present for you.
Ahh. Guess that's why Zoe kept spacing out the ransom notes. Nothing says I love you like kidnapping and murder on your birthday. Kidnapping: When you care to forcibly take the v. best!
Zoe: Everything you died for, it's finally ours, mama.
L: No, it's not. You're lying to her, you know that, don't you?
UH LUKE DO NOT ANTAGONIZE THE CRAZY LADY WITH THE GUN PLZ. O.o
Zoe: Shut up!
N: What you and Zac are doing, it's not gonna work.
Oh, Noah. Your Earth logic does not work here. You should know that by now!
L: ...even if my mother doesn't bring the ransom money?
Zoe: She better. Otherwise you two are never getting out of here.
Their :\ :\ ruh-roh looks at each then ad;lfksadflk.
H: DamianDamianDamianDamianDamianDamian. ... Luke is our son. I'm not being territorial here or anything...
Ree: AHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Also, things may have played out completely different had the police (or, y'know, even Damian) been around to stop Zoe from running later. :| :| :|
Wait, Holden's leaving? Dang. He must've already picked up the kids to take to OtherGrandma's house and come back to talk to his mom. I was hoping to see Ethan. Cutie! Of course, in this soap world, he's prolly already a teenager now and hanging out with Parker aldkfja.
Uhh. How did Damian know that hooded coat had a red trim from the black and white photo?
(Zoe has the original in color.) Is red the official Grimaldi family colors? For that matter, where'd be get that sucker so fast? The place that Anna got it at must still be in business in Old Town, heh. AND WHY IS SHE EVEN WEARING A CAPE?! I won't even go into how he got a Pisces necklace just like it so fast either. Oh, soaps. :X
N: That musta been hard for you, to lose your mother while so young.
Aww, Noah understanding. And, y'know, trying to talk the crazy down off the crazy ledge. Atta boy! Relating to your kidnapper ups your odds of them not killing you, y'know. Oprah taught me that!
Zoe: Do you still feel them?
N: Wh-what?
Zoe: Your parents. Is it like they never left?
N: *she's coo-coo for Cocoa Puffs look at Luke*
L: Do you still feel like your mother's still here with you?
AHAHAHAHA THEIR *DEALING WITH THE CRAZY* FACES.
Zoe: Are you sure nothing can go wrong?
Zac: But just in case, I got us a little insurance. *gun, omg*
Wait. Didn't they already have a gun? Or is he just "reminding" us he has one? Anyway. Soon as the gun comes out, Luke cuts his eyes sideways at his Noah. Noah? He's watching that gun, just like last time. I heart that. Cos in my head, it's the Army childhood rearing its head. Respect the weapon and all.
D: I HAVE A PLAN.
L: OMG TELL ME!
D: OKAY OKAY. YOU'RE GONNA MAKE THE DROP-OFF, SEE.
L: YEAH, YEAH.
D: AND THEN WANDER AROUND.
L: TELL ME MORE!
D: AS A GHOST!!!
L: THAT COULD TOTALLY WORK!
D: AND THEN I'LL NAB 'EM!
L: PERFECT! LET'S GO!
Ree: AHAHAHAHAHAHA OH SHOW!
I dunno, Zac. I think Damian's, um, gun is bigger than yours. :P
L: You don't need that.
Zac: Excuse me?
L: If my mom's bringing the ransom, you don't need that gun.
Zac: Well, I need to make sure that she hands over the money, hm? It would be foolish to be unprepared.
N: It's all right.
Luke doing his best to protect his mom and Noah trying to calm him. BOYS. ♥
L: Zoe, listen to me.
Zoe: What?
L: I'm really sorry about your mother.
Zac: How much did you tell them?
Y'know, feels like the power has shifted more toward Zac this ep. It triples by the time Zoe gets out of the car and goes chasing after her "mom", like once she gets back, Zac's realized he has to take control.
Checking up on each other. ♥ Also, height difference when sitting is making me happy, awwww.
Zac: Well, forget it. We've come too far now to turn back.
N: Waaaait. You're gonna let us go... right?
Oh, man. This is when Noah realizes things are gonna get bad. :\
Zac: Don't worry, Monster, pretty soon you'll be free as a bird.
Raise your hand if you were expecting Zac to kiss Noah here too. :P I mean, srsly, how is Zac not gay? That boy is at least bi!
Luke staring at Zac like he's an alien, heh. And, um. Reeeeally wanna lick Noah's upper lip right now.
H: Look, you and I, we're never going to be friends, Damian. But what's most important here is that we get Luke and Noah back.
\:D/
AND THEN LUKE AND NOAH SPEND A LOT OF TIME GRUNTING IN THE DARK ALDFKASLKJ. I swear, if you close your eyes and just listen, chunks of this episode sounds like Luke and Noah having sex asldkjlk.
L: Everything's gonna be okay, Noah.
*grunts*
*grunts*
L: Yeah.
N: Give it to me. ...
*grunts*
*grunts*
N: You came... Luke, I love you.
I need a ciggie now.
WAIT WAIT, LET'S ADD THE SEX FACES:
And, of course, we have Noah being Noahsome, aka awesome.
L: Look, I really don't think that Zoe wants to hurt us.
N: Zoe? Zoe with the freaky shrine to her dead mother Zoe?
and
L: Well, I just think he meant it was too late to cancel the drop-off with my mom.
N: Luke, I love you, but... do you really believe that?
Ree: AHAHAHAHAHA.
Noah. ♥
L: We are gonna do everything we can to get the hell outta here.
N: Or die trying.
D:
One shove onto GRASS and Lily's knocked out. Luke must get his hard head from Holden.
L&N: *messing with ropes*
N: So, what do you wanna do?
L: Do you see that picture frame? If we could just break the glass--
N: --and use it to cut the ropes.
They're so married. ♥
L: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Try kicking the table. Pretend we're at Yo's and you're, you're trying to impress me with some of those lame dance moves you're so proud of.
N: I'm gonna remember you said that.
L: *laughs*
Noah made Luke laugh -- during a kidnapping. HOW MUCH DO I LOVE HIM RIGHT NOW YOU GUYS.
N: *gruntgruntfacekickkick*
L&N: *sexfaces*
Ree: *guh*
N: See that piece of glass, right there, next to your hand?
L: Yeah.
N: Give it to me.
L: Why?
N: Cos if one of us can get out of here, it should be you. You came here on your own, you know where we are. I don't.
L: Yap, well, I'm not leaving here without you, so you better work fast.
Teh luv, TEH LUV. ♥ Also, the grunting. This is more grunting than we've gotten from them their whole relationship.
L: Y'know, this would almost be kinda fun, if we weren't fighting for our lives.
AHAHAHAHA. Plus his *struggles with ropes* face is killing me. ♥
N: It's always something, right?
L: *laughs*
OMG. Noah made him laugh AGAIN. ♥
N: Maybe we can make it more interesting.
L: How so?
N: Uhh, first one that doesn't cut an artery wins? Loser cleans up?
L: Ooh, you're disgusting. *EW THEN
FACE*
AND AGAIN WITH THE LAUGHING!
N: Yet, somehow, you still love me.
L: *laughs*
AND AGAIN! THAT'S FOUR TIMES LUKE'S LAUGHED SINCE BECOMING A HOSTAGE. NOAH = HAS SUPERPOWERS. Also, they're so damned adorable. And Luke's cheek looks like it hurts, ow. Yay, make-up person!
L&N: *grunt grunt cut cut*
Ree: Yeah, that's hot.
Meanwhile, back on Crazy Blvd...
Zac: Ditch the car.
Zoe: But we're really far from the warehouse.
Now is not the time to get lazy, Zoe, aldjfsal. Also, really illustrates how their power positions have switched. Zac is so taking over.
The Reader's Digest version of their convo:
Zoe: YEAH SHE WASN'T MY MOM. OOPS.
Zac: RUINED EVERYTHING, BIATCH. >:|
OMG THEY'RE UNTIED! \:D/ Though it's kinda hard to see in this cap, sorry 'bout that. But trust me, Luke is so fondling Noah's chest right there. Or dragging off the rope, whatev, same diff.
L: C'mon, get up, hurry!
N: Let's get the hell outta here.
L: I'm so wi--
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE THEY'RE FREEEEEEEEEEEE NOW HUG HUG HUG HUG--
Zac: Where you going?! Nobody gave you permission to leave!
DAMMIT. Wait, I thought you guys were way far away. :\ Luke and Noah are the slowest cutters through rope with glass fragments evah. Which makes sense considering Noah's been tied up forevers now and his hands have gotta be like, numb as hell by now (except when fondling Lukehands kthx). BUT STILL. Am annoyed they didn't even get to hug, grrr. But, hey, there's still touching! They wouldn't be Nuke if they didn't somehow figure out how to do a little touchage, mmm.
L&N: O.o O.o
The way Luke pushes against Noah's chest in the slightest, like trying to protect him and warn him and comfort himself and just... guh. Boys. ♥
L: It's over, Zac. We're leaving.
Z: No, I don't think so!
N: Oh, c'mon, how long are you gonna keep us here?!
Noah's. had. enough. His desperate/fed-up voice. :*( And this time, Luke's the one keeping his eye on the gun. Maybe cos it's pointed not at him, but at Noah. D:
L: You don't need us! You got the money!
Zac: No, we didn't!
Zoe: Your mother double-crossed us!
Zac: Which means you're not going anywhere.
AND THEN HE COCKED THE FUCKING GUN. THIS WOULDA BEEN ME:
HAD IT NOT HAPPENED SO FUCKING FAST THAT I COULDN'T EVEN BELIEVE WHAT HAD JUST HAPPENED AS NOAH FELL TO THE GROUND NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! (And this is why I LOVE not being spoiled. I live for shocker moments like this!)
N: AUGH!
L: Noah! It's okay, it's okay!
N: AUGH!
Ree: *TRAUMATIZED*
And, yet, like Luke somehow still loving Noah, I somehow still couldn't stop giggling at Jake's D: faces akl;dfjalkj. Later I replayed it all, only just listening to the dialogue/sounds and not watching. Talk about traumatizing myself all over again. D: Noah's in such pain and Luke's freaking out and omg. Try eet.
L: WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?! Noah! Noah!
N: AUGH!
The blood and Luke just looking at it on his hand and, oh, man, that is so gonna traumatize him more. He already had the nightmare of seeing Damian's blood on Noah earlier at the hospital. Now this time it really is Noah's and it's all over Luke as well.
Zac: How could you think you'd just walk outta here?
L: I told you I'd just give you the damn money!
Zac's trembly voice there, omg. Like he's not sure about the original plan anymore. That knowing you're supposed to shoot them is one thing, but having done it and seeing the fallout, actually seeing Noah bleeding and crying out and panicking and Luke being protective of his partner, that's a whole nother, v. real thing. Especially since Zac prolly should've been aiming for the heart and not Noah's arm. Makes me wonder if he was already having second thoughts. Or, y'know, is just a lousy shot, heh.
Luke leaning over to cradle Noah. :*(
Zac: Get some more rope, and this time, make sure they can't get loose.
L: No, no, he needs to go to the hospital. He needs a doctor!
Luke's worry over Noah is making him fierce and yell-y and brave and omg. I LOVE THIS EP SO MUCH.
N: *buries face into Luke's chest*
Zoe: *has rope, pulls on Noah*
N: AUGH! AUGH!
L: Hey, you're hurting him!!! *pushes her away*
Ree: I WILL FUCKING KILL HER.
Kinda hard to tell, but that's the bloody arm. The protective touching is killing me.
And Luke supporting Noah. :*( Thank god this happened while Luke was there. Can you imagine if Zac had shot Noah when they were alone? And Noah was just crying out on the floor alone? I WOULDA DIED. D:
N: AUGH! AUGH!
Zoe: *goes back in to finish the tie-up job*
N: AUGH! AUGH!
Zac: It's nothing personal, Monster.
OMG NOAH'S CRYING WAS REALLY BREAKING MY HEART AND ZAC'S. :((((((((((((((((((((
N: AUGH! AUGH!
L: Why do you have to tie his hands? He's been shot! *shoves her off* He can't do anything!
N: Luke, don't make it worse. I'm fine.
And still Noah's protecting his woobie, even as he's passing out. ♥
L: *grabs the back of Noah's head as Noah passes out* Noah! Noah!
THE HEAD-GRAB, YOU GUYS, THE HEAD-GRAB. :*(
L: Please, you have to help. You can't just let him die!
THAT WORRIED WOOBIE FACE OMG. BRB HEART BREAKING.
THE CUDDLING THEN YELLING TO SAVE HIM AND THE BLOOD ON NOAH'S NECK IN LUKE-FINGER-SHAPES OMG. *SOB* ONLY ALLCAPS CAN EXPRESS MY EMO PAIN RIGHT NOW.
L: Noah? Noah? He's still out. You have to do something. You can't just let him bleed to death.
Z&Z: *wipes gun of prints*
Zac: Shut up! I need to think!
Oh, man. Zac is so freaking out at the blood and pain and angst. Otherwise he should've finished the job and shot Noah in the head then, quickly followed by Luke. Who's the wuss now, Zac?
L: Noah, Noah. Please. I'm so sorry. I am so sorry.
Z&Z: KILL EVERYONE YAY!
Noah's ear is so bloody, omg. I'm assuming from Luke holding his head with bloody hands.
L: Stay with me, Noah. *crying gasp* Stay with me.
Yes, Noah, stay with us. *sob*
Also, I hope Damian gets to stick around for a bit after this mess is over. :X
NEW EP TODAY OMG OMG OMG HOLD ME.
Barcelona: Rafa vs. Ferrer
RAFA WON!
5 X'S IN A ROW, BB!
That trophy is as big as him aldkjas.
And just cos this one makes me go GUH. *pats his belly, mmm*
• And Rome starts this week! Roger's already there, Rafa's due to join him soon in bed. Hectic schedule, I'm telling ya!
CURLS! GRIN! TURTLENECK! ROOOOGER I MISSED YOU! ♥
Lookit those nails. *awe*
Huge thanks to morebliss for the Rafa pics, and to fedal-fangirl for the Roger pics. ♥ Also, ESPN/FSN's lack o' coverage of all things tennis lately is bumming me out.
• Gale was in the DH previews for next Sunday, woot! Few quickie caps. And spoilers, but just from what's said in the clip. And, really, if you read the last few articles from Gale's recent whirlwind mediaslutdom, ain't nothing you don't already know, yo. Don't spoil me beyond this, kthx. ;)

Jackson: I want you to marry me.
*swoons*
But the hair. :\
• New Lost this week, woot!
• Been slowly catching up on Private Practice. I'm still an ep behind, I think. But two things, so far:
1) Addison is srsly pissing me off with the married doc. The flirting/kissing/pushing away thing is getting old. "I don't cheat. Well, except for that one time." :| Plus I'm so tired of every person who looks at her falling hopelessly in love. GAH ENOUGH WE GET IT. I miss my Addy from Grey's. Sigh.
2) Cooper/Charlotte/Violet are awesomesauce beyond belief.
• Photobucket going directly to that tagging page now after an upload is hella annoying.
• My modem's been acting wonky. So if I vanish suddenly for a long while, you'll, uh, know why.
