: I keep thinking of Tony's own line at the 2007
: Emmys: "Laura is Luke's humanity."
: At some level it must cut Tony to the core
: to know he has to keep playing a Luke that
: is not a complete person. He can utter all
: the nonsense he wants about moving on from
: Luke and Laura or whatever, but deep down,
: he KNOWS. Perhaps he enjoys working with
: JE and/or NP, but JE especially, drags him
: down. (I think you said that yesterday,
: Ginger, but it's so on target; I had to
: repeat it.) For us to see Luke's heart, we
: DO need Laura. Maybe they are bringing her
: up because they knew the audience would feel
: the hole seeing Luke and Lucky together with
: NO Laura. But I hope they do not think we
: will be satisfied with a few "Laura
: conversations". THAT would be a HUGE
: mistake on the part of TIIC.
:
: Saddest part of all this?? I don't think
: Genie knows how VITAL she is to Tony; how
: without her, the Spencers will NEVER make
: sense. I think she's been dissed so many
: times by TPTB that she doesn't know what we
: all do--that she IS the HEART of General
: Hospital. I suppose that's why I'm
: especially pushing for the "Heart"
: campaign. Even if the idiots never "get
: it", Genie WILL hear the message and we
: will have done a good thing. Perhaps the
: others who shared time with her in Chicago
: had a different perspective, but I sensed
: she has no idea of her worth and importance
: to GH. And why would she with the way
: they've treated her???? We who love her
: can't make up for the lack of a contract
: with ABC, but I believe we DID and CAN AGAIN
: make enough noise to at least let her know
: how we feel. Sorry to have rambled, but I
: know I will watch the show today and feel
: even sadder, madder (who knows?) that Genie
: is not in her rightful place on GH. ***BIG
: SIGH***

: Yes, J. Tony played it like he wanted news
: about Laura...was dying inside a little with
: the idea that Lucky had news that put Luke
: out of the loop regarding her. The whole
: thing doesn't make much sense. He is aching
: for her...despairing, really. Yet he stays
: with Tracy in a situation that is not
: anything like what the real Luke would have
: wanted. You have to hand it to Tony to give
: this tripe any authenticity. It is obvious
: that Luke is miserable. Tony played Luke as
: distraught. He doesn't know how to parent
: Lucky through this. His solution is to
: drown in a bottle. Lucky told him that the
: Spencer genes were nothing to be proud of.
: That must have cut Luke to the core. Boy,
: do they need Genie!

: WOW - L&L???
: I'm watching live (practically ran home to
: do so, which I haven't done in a long time).
:
: ANOTHER long conversation about Laura. Lucky
: asks Luke if he heard from Laura, Luke, who
: is hung over from drinking because of what
: he saw between Nik/Liz, instantly perks up.
: He's worried, wonders if she called him, and
: why. Lucky clarifies that he called her, and
: that she's fine, and he called to talk about
: he and Liz. Luke wants to know what they
: talked about, and Lucky lets him know that's
: between he and his mom.
:
: Now get this...Luke was extremely
: inquisitive about Laura and appeared
: DISAPPOINTED that he wasn't in on what's
: going down with Laura. It was clear as day,
: Geary played the lines like he was desperate
: for news about Laura, and sad that he's been
: left out the loop. He was fishing for any
: news about Laura.
:
: I don't think I've seen Geary play this kind
: of "slow burn" regarding Laura
: since 2001. It really was like the old days,
: when L&L were on the outs, and Luke is
: pretending to play it cool, but is really
: burning for just a slice of Laura.
:
: Wow.
