Man that was incredibly hard to watch, some of the dialogue like Bob's, John's and Tom's was bad especially in that ER room while they are trying to convince Luke to let Reid go..... they just came out looking cold.
Speaking of Reid, I was never a big fan but what they did to him in the end was just bad! he shouldn't have died period! He could have found happiness with someone else other than Luke. But no the writers had to go and do this. Everyone knows that I didn't like him but my heart broke for him today and they sorta gave him a hero's ending which made it even sadder. He was unlikable when he arrived, especially what he did to Nuke/Noah in the process but somehow in the last two episodes my heart went out to him and I started seeing him in a new light. I saw a more vulnerable, softer, side to the selfish, callous man that first showed up on our screens months ago. I think loving Luke might have had something to do with that..... don't get me wrong I despise LuRe but I do see that it brought out a better side to him, a softer side that made him reedemable in my eyes..... and instead of having Reid live, redeem him for people who hate him, and give him a happy ending they do this????? *face palm*
Which brings me to Van/Luke :*( seriously give this guy his emmy already, he deserves it! he was simply amazing today... From the minute that Luke sees Reid being wheeled in and starts, yelling his name , I broke....
But I think this is the scene/ part of today's show that got me the hardest:

and this one:

the scene of him in the empty ER room, OH GOD *tears*
and somehow while watching Luke at Reid's bedside I was transported back to Luke at Noah's bedside, afraid that he would lose Noah forever :*(. Seriously how many times does Luke have to go through this? hasn't he been through enough already???? I guess not. Yeah ATWT you suck! Why did he have to lose the man he loves like that? *I might not agree with this but he does love him* why not just have them realize they weren't right for eachother and leave it like that? I think I would have been okay with a Luke single ending, but not like this. Yeah, I wanted/want him with Noah but if Luke decided he needed space to figure out what he really wanted and end up amibacly with both Noah and Reid, I would have been ok.
I just don't get it Luke Snyder is a legacy character right? The first male gay character to get the first love story in daytime. Granted, it was not always handled correctly but millions of fans around the world fell in love with it and they have him end up alone? without his first love, which I believe is the love of his life, they're just lost at the moment ;) and his current one? that completely screams homophobia to me.... even by his creators..grrrr.
I love Luke and i din't want him to end up like this. I wanted him happy be it with Noah,Reid or alone but at peace with himself not alone, grieving and completely miserable... *head desk*I really wish I had JP infront of me right now so I could tell her what I really think of her, oh and CG can't forget about him either.... blah
