remos

They're not going to undo the relationship - but I do think Luke will leave feeling he will never get her back and Tracy will have the first summer in their life knowing what it feels like to be truly alone. Come fall perhaps one of the Spencermaine Jrs. will have had enough and go fetch Pa. It's funny how the LnL hardliners have come out of the woodwork again - seriously, they can't catch a hint. Tracy is still in spoilers for being the prime foil in Aiden's kidnapping, so that's a guarantee she's around. Michael tries to pull the plug on Carly's scheme with Lante once he learns about it, so perhaps we'll get some Grannie/Step-monster action soon. But other than Brenda returning there really aren't spoilers past the end of June. Someone is keeping a serious lock-down on that information - which is not a bad thing IMO considering all false spoilers that get posted.

I'll carry the flag - I'm used to it. Okay, SZ spoilers for the week: * Luke tries to win Tracy back, but she makes her heart grow cold. * Nikolas releases Luke and Tracy from Helena’s dungeon. * While discussing their families, namely Luke and Tracy, Ethan flirts outrageously with Maya, and Maya seems to like the attention. * Tracy makes a full recovery in Miracle Hospital. But her view of Luke is another matter. Never again. Coming up: * Someone takes care of Luke, shoving him off the boat into the water * Luke fails to make any inroads with a hurt Tracy

I agree they need something new, but this isn't like anything else they've done. Similar yes, but not the same. Tracy will probably try to extricate herself from the Spencermaines fully and that will kill her. AND I don't think they will let her. Tracy is going to get schooled in family and marriage this summer, and it not just by blood or law. BTW, nice to see you around more Ms. Q. Hope things are going well.

I didn't notice Luke's ring, but I did notice Tracy's and she's still wearing it. I'm sure it will be off soon and I hope IF she throws it away, we get to see one of the Spencers picking it up and pocketing it for her. You're right - she does love that ring. I imagine we are going to get moments of Tracy being called Mrs. Spencer and she's going to argue the point. I'm just really curious - Tracy basically has to carry this story until October by herself.

No, what I mean is her emotional protection will probably crumble once she's finally alone, but she will most certainly stay firm and resolved while Luke is still in PC. I'm just going to have a problem with patience while this all plays out.

No, just in general - I want to see what keeps happening for Tracy. I want to see what Luke does to win her back and why he just leaves. I want to see her when she's alone and the walls can come down. I don't think I've been this impatient for a LuNacy story to play out in ages.

This is going to kill me until Monday morning. I want to know what happens next NOW!!!!

Umm.... yeah, not buying all of this one. The LuNacy wedding I do believe. Scrubs in trouble I don't. Brook not a threat, yes. Brazen reunion, no. CarSon reunion taken off the table, perhaps. S&B we could see a mile away. Michael story tested, probably. Lante is the couple, definitely. Franco and Brenda? How if he's gone two weeks before she arrives?

I have complete conviction that they will end up giving us a fabulous LuNacy story - and who knows, maybe the Jrs. will weigh in and tell Luke no more games, just be honest and don't give up. Why they are doing it, I can't even begin to guess. BUT it's a LuNacy story so I'm just going with it. I'm actually pretty indifferent to it what's happening with regards the the legality of their marriage, because as Luke said they ARE married in every way that matters.

I'm hoping they will really let Tracy fall this time, like she did once before when Luke left. She's going to kick him to the curb but he's still trying. However when he's physically gone she's going to crumble. I really, really hope they go with that and have Tracy be self-destructive like she's been in the past. Then when Luke returns he can fight for her life.

Luke says her fever broke, it's a miracle. Tracy tells him he's a no-good swindler, he doesn't believe in love or miracles he only believes in money. Luke says he believes in love and that's because of her. Tracy basically tells him to cut the crap because he's a thief and a swindler. Luke laughs and says it worked - he knew it would make her rally. Tracy says it's all a lie and there is no "us" because they aren't married. (Interesting, Tracy swings the cup to hit him in the face and he grabs her wrist to stop her). (OMG... watch Lucky, he's hilarious) Tracy wonders why she believed him because he lied about everything else. Luke says the ARE married and has the legal documents to prove it. Tracy says he's got a legal document everything. Why did she fall for it? She says she kept the HS open, she bailed him out and Ethan, she was a step-mother to Lulu - does Lulu even know? Luke says Lulu knows they are married in every way that counts. Tracy tells him to save it and calls for the guards. Luke says there's not point in aggravating the guards. Tracy turns on him and asks if he's telling her what to do - like a husband? Because she's not married. Luke says if they are going to survive this they have to stay together. Tracy says she had believed the guard might come but then she believed they were truly married but it was all about money. Yes, Luke says, he married her for money but he made the biggest mistake a con could make - he fell in love with the mark. Tracy doesn't buy it, but Luke continues to tell her he loves her and he knows she loves him - she accepted him without wanting to change him and he fell in love with her "poisoned barb-wire beauty". He's alive today because of her. She fought for him and he's alive now. Tracy laughs saying she fought for him and she didn't even need to because they aren't married. Luke says again they they ARE married and when they get out of the cell he is going to make it legal. Tracy says she's rather spend the rest of her days in that dungeon with the four-legged rats than be outside with the rat that he is. And it's done. Luke has confessed that they aren't legally married but he's not letting it go at that. Tracy is doing her usual uber-bitchy thing to protect her heart again. It's a little sad really - she can't hear anything that Luke is telling her right now.

OH... it's going to be a very long summer for Tracy.... But it looks like we might be good. I realize spoilers are always GOS, but Tracy is being part of the hospital lockdown, paternity revelation and probably the Lante/BL stupidity (hope she takes her anger and Luke and puts it right up Carly's ass). The lock-down can't be for very long and it's not a part of Franco story (which is only supposed to be a month, thank God). I wonder what comes after that.... Aside from Brenda returning in August, we have no spoilers past the end of July.

I found this on DC...

Felix only in so far as he's the one who's wife kicks him out and he's lost. Otherwards Oscar would fit Luke better. I am sure it will be fine for Tracy time. She's gone for at least 4 weeks of TG's time anyway, so August into September we won't see her. Lockdown is July so that's a given with Tracy, so really that only leaves about two weeks before JE's vacation and about 2-4 afterwards before Luke returns. It's not that bad. I also expect that the Spencermaine Jr. will be around with her and for her. We'll have to see. But either way, I'm thinking the fact that Luke is gone for 12ish weeks is pretty clear that they are legally married. He would be more on top of her if they weren't and he wanted it legalized. Besides too many recent events would have to be rewritten or reinterpreted, and that's a whole lot of work for nothing. Luke can still woo her and work towards a "real" wedding without them needing to be not legally married.

Well at least we know what dates to expect. Here's the summary of The Odd Couple. http://www.answers.c...-couple-play-1. Luke is Felix as far as I can see. But it should be interesting to see what Lucky does for Luke before he leaves. I'm now wondering how much Tracy can do to him in 2 1/2 weeks, when they don't get home until next week at the earliest and then she's in the hospital... hmmmm... The 6 weeks would have been nice, but this is still a shorter vacation for him - he's usually gone in May and returning early October. Tracy will be more than ready for him come the fall. But this also begs the question was Luke's 'confession' even accurate today??? Luke might try to explain while Tracy thinks it's back-peddling. Bottom line I guess, she's involved in a whole host of things besides Luke which means we will have more Tracy after the first of July.

It was real. It was beautiful, so heartfelt. I FELT it in my gut - truly I did. It was powerful and their delivery is so much better than the flat words I posted. Tracy has done all sorts of thing to Luke in the past - made him grovel, taken his money, tossed him out (although overboard is new) - all while knowing/believing they are properly married. I don't know, perhaps I'm being too much of an optimist but Guza loves LuNacy and has always done right by them even when they've taken the long road. Luke's way of speaking in 2008, left us unclear until the end whether he truly was picking Tracy (we knew, but you know what I mean - it wasn't clearly stated). He's also written Luke's struggle to accept his love for Tracy considering how he thought there would only ever be Laura. Something is still too open-ended for me. The spoilers are just too neat - and that's not how Guza plays this game. There's more, I'd bet just about anything on that one.

Okay, here it is.... LUKE (getting down on his knees in front of her) Tracy Angelica Quartermaine-Spencer, you have transformed my life. Not just with the bank accounts and the mansion and the corporate jets - I mean all that's nice, but none of that could keep me here, with you if I didn't want to be. It's you darlin'... it's you. Your humour, your intelligence, your feistiness and your huge heart which you always try to keep hidden. You make my life worthwhile. It's because of you that I give a damn. I love you with all my heart. My Spanky. My Sweetheart. My Wife. TRACY Lucas Lorenzo Spencer, I have always taken great pride in being the difficult one - hard to handle, hard to please. But you are the challenge of my life - you outdo me every time. You know me better than anyone. You know my heart, you even know that it beats faster when you walk into a room. You're worth the trouble. I love you with all my heart. You are my beloved Husband.

But I'm wondering if they really do. Just even listening to Luke, and I quote now from my DVR so I know what I'm saying... "Stay with me. I promise you, if you just stay with me I'll do what I should have done years ago. No more phoney Vegas weddings. None of that for us, from now on the real thing, I swear to God. If you stay with me I will marry you for real." Now is that literally the marriage is not real. OR is he saying in Luke-speak that he wants a proper one without it being a con? I still can't tell for sure.

Luke yelling anything he can think of to get Helena to help Tracy. Even at one point crying that Tracy died - Tracy is awake by this time smiling under the covers. She calls him over and he's so glad she's awake, then asks her for a smile. She gives him a toothy one and says she remembered their wedding. Oh... Luke says... Luke asks her what she remembers, she says equally tacky in cowgirl outfits. They do some Dale Evans, Roy Rogers joking and Luke said it's not time to play "Happy Trails", then she tells him she remembers that joke about a marriage being a three ring circus - the engagement ring, the wedding ring and the suffering. Luke goes on to say they were both sloshed, but she more than him. She enjoyed it, didn't she? Luke asks. Tracy just looks at him. Tracy still falling asleep on Luke and he wants her to stay awake. Tracy doesn't know why he wants her awake, and he says they should remember their vows. Tracy says she never would have married him if she wasn't drunk. Luke suggests they renew their vows and Tracy wonders why he wants to talk about cake and flower arrangements. He says he doesn't want that stuff, he just wants to talk about renewing their vows. Tracy says the first time she was drunk and now they are in a Greek Gulag, this is a step-up. Luke says he'll take her any way he can get her... to which Tracy responds "Wow, I must be worse than I thought". Luke says when we are dying your whole life flashes in front of your face but you can't even remember our vows, so you aren't dying. He just thinks she should remember like he does. Tracy says, okay, she's game. Luke then gets on his knees in front of her and SORRY, I JUST CAN'T DO THIS PART JUSTICE. THEY EXPRESS HOW MUCH THEY LOVE EACH OTHER AND IT'S BEAUTIFUL. Then Tracy starts coughing badly and falls over. Luke keeps calling her name to get a response. Luke scared she really is dying, kisses her hands and tells her to stay with him, and says if she stays with him no more phoney Vegas weddings, he will marry her for real. Tracy's eyes pop open and she glares at him saying we're not really married???? Luke looks caught.

We did go on a name search at one point I think, and only fanfic had a middle name for her. I think the "Anjelica" was funny as hell - Tracy has never been "angelic" in her life.

Thanks Nex.

I never thought Tracy's hallucination would be something from 5 years ago - I always thought that one just her current imagination (and yes, short hair ) It's Luke's truth that I'm watching for. The Anjelica line killed me, lol.....

Tracy is lying on the cot, coughing and looking like hell. She asks Luke to take her mind off their hell, so after he tucks her in and starts rubbing her back, he talks to her about a vineyard in Italy with fabulous Chianti and how he's going to take her there. Hellzabob shows up and Luke says Tracy is sick. Hellz says with the dampness she wouldn't be surprised by anyone catching their death by pneumonia. Luke gets seriously angry (dropping his voice angry) and says their evil chess match is just between them and Tracy shouldn't be hurt in the process. Hellzabob just responds that if Tracy dies that leaves the game for just them again. Luke is seething. Luke tells Helena their fight is between the two of them and Tracy was only the bait - it worked so now get Tracy to a hospital or get a doctor in. Helena says bring in Dr. Schemerman - they have a verbal spat over the pronunciation and Luke grabs Helena. Her boy-toy pulls Luke off her and twists his hand painfully. Hellzabob finally leaves and Luke yells "If my wife dies you will too, Bitch". Hellzabob calls back "Promises, promises and leaves". Then Luke looks over at Tracy scared and worried. Tracy asks Luke what he's doing and he tells her he lifted a pen off of Spartacus so he's trying to pick the lock. Tracy coughs again and Luke goes to her with concern. She apologizes for being a problem and Luke tells her not to do that, not to be nice because she's really scaring him. He asks her to tell him something awful about him like he ruined her life. Tracy says why should I make you feel better? Luke relaxes a bit and says "There's my girl". All the while he's rubbing her back. Tracy then says she's thinking about their wedding and wishes she could remember, she also wishes they had more pictures. Luke says he wanted her to spring for the supreme package that came with the commemorative cup but she didn't want to. Luke sees Tracy fading and tells Spanky to stay with him. Tracy says she wants to remember her wedding - and Luke says they were very drunk. Then Tracy imagines them both drinking, in western gear. It's actually quite funny and Tracy's middle name is Anjelica, Tracy is impressed with the deal he got by pawning her earrings for the ring, and the they both look at each other when the official (not an Elvis impersonator) asks one if they want the other. Recaps aren't going to do this one justice.

Yup. And privately she's going to be a mess. I hope they play all of hit to the hilt. You know, all thing considered, Tracy has one of the better stories at the moment. I love that.

I just read that article. Those actors certainly have their message to get across. At the end BB says ABCD has committed to all their soaps that they aren't going anywhere - so take that dooms day predictors. What I was amused at was AL's comment that Guza saw her, got inspired and within a few business days it was a done deal. So that's RC wants back and they make it happen, VM is chased for years and she returns and AL is just seen and she's offered a job. BUT poor whiney can't get a call back to save her soul. I wish the hardliners would get the memo - and I can't help but be amused. EDIT LOL... more spoilers from SD....
