One thing I learn from this fandom is many people paid attention to Eric's acting but they seldom bothered to really watch Van's. Like I said on another forum, these people are blind and they just wanted to believe what they imagined to have been shown on screen. Sad but we just have to accept that they're not going to change and move on after tomorrow.
I am sure if it's Reid putting on a smiling face, those people wouldn't have any complaints. Those smiles didn't reach his eyes at all, but of course that's not the point, in their minds as long as Luke was smiling, that's proof that he's over Reid!
I think the kiss was inappropriate from Noah, but I didn't have much problem with it. It's a goodbye kiss from Noah, Luke didn't respond a bit and his hands were in his pockets all the time! How anyone could interpret it as a hint of Luke leaning on reuniting with Noah is beyond me.
I thought he was pretty realistic. Most people put on a brave, smiling face when dealing with other people while grieving. Think how many funerals you've been to where a family member is smiling at the reception line as they shake hands. It's human nature, you know? It's a protection, even, to keep from showing just how vulnerable you are. It's like a wounded animal will hide it's hurt because otherwise it can be torn apart by the pack. It's an animal, basic thing.
Yes, exactly. That's exactly what I meant, and that's exactly what I was thinking of - the people smiling at funerals.
And it's not even the public/private thing, either. I've seen people be a mess at a funeral, and then be smiling and joking at a reception an hour later, because they're just not going to let people see them grieving the entire time.

But, yeah, if the show was continuing, I'd love to see more scenes of Luke grieving, etc. I think we'll see it tomorrow, though.
