Reid cast his eyes up to the roof of the elevator cab and heaved a dramatic sigh. “If you’ve come here to apologize for doubting me, why don’t you save it till tomorrow? Right now, I’m too tired to enjoy this the way I should.”
“You think I’m here to apologize?” Luke bellowed, his voice far too loud for such a small space. “Ha!”

Poor, poor Luke - he's lost the love of his life, and then this MAN breezes into his life pretending to be him. And I can FEEL the frustration and anger and hurt that he felt in that elevator. If I were Luke, I wouldn't understand how Bob and Katie and John accepted him, either, especially after how horribly Reid died. Nope.
But I also feel so badly for Reid. He doesn't understand what's going on, but his life is/has been a mess and all he wants to do is be a doctor again. I mean, he tried to KILL himself rather than live life without a medical license!
When Luke walked into his office, called him Dr. Oliver and offered him the coat, that's when I lost it. The culmination of all of those feelings and Luke's apparent surrender - it was so, so sad. But Luke being generous and giving new!Reid Reid's coat...wow. It really affected me.
I can't wait for the next chapter. I really want to hug them both, they need it so badly!

Ooh, I forgot to mention in my last comment how much I loved the elevator. It took it to its logical conclusion: claustrophobia + exhaustion = not fun times for Reid. That was awesome.
