Yes, basically. To be fair to those actors, they weren't really showcased in that episode. The really meaty stuff went to Tracy and the kids.

Have you had a chance to watch yet? I want to hear your review.

Nope. It's on the list, that's all I can say at the moment. Not sure when I'll get around to actually watching. But I'm glad to hear the meaty stuff was given to the proper group and not swallowed hole by 2/3 of the Unholy Trinity.

OT: The president is about to address the nation. Osama bin Laden has been killed.

From SZ

# Tracy and Lulu dog Luke’s every move to try and get him clean.

# Lulu harasses Lucky about alcoholism and rehab and staying away.

# Tracy blocks Luke from entering the Haunted Star casino.

# Luke wants to bring attorney Alexis into it, just so he can do what he wants without Lulu’s and Tracy’s interference.

# Luke’s hittin’ the sauce hard again, and wants company. Ethan, wanna come with?

# Over the giggle juice, Luke opens up to Ethan about what it was like to be abused by a good for nothing lush.

# Ethan doesn’t get why Lulu’s so hard on Luke. It’s too much.

TG hasn't actually used the words "suicide" for Luke that I've read, I think it's just something we assume. I think he'd recklessly try to save Tracy or one of his kids or maybe Sonny, and get killed, if he thinks they need to kill Luke off. While a part of me wants something happy for Lacy at the end, I have to admit, I really can't picture it, and I think most of us seem to agree on that. Sadly. I mean, of all the current characters on GH, I think Tracy is one who deserves a happy ending. But at the same time-it doesn't really jibe with who the character is, if you know what I mean. Tracy has changed somewhat over the years, but there is still that element of tragedy about her, as if even in her happiest times, she, and we as an audience, are always waiting for the other shoe to drop.

And I guess Luke is sort of that way too, despite what the rabid LnL'ers would like to propose. They want a "Luke and Laura riding off in the pink caddy" ending. Dear Lord. They are truly not even paying attention to what has happened in the last ten years, and YES, I think it matters, and YES, I think a reunion of LnL DOES have to make sense.

Guza would have to do a lot of tap dancing to make it happen, and make sense, and I don't think he will. The days of couples just being together because the fans want it, are over. They haven't existed on GH for a while now. Or any soap, really.

But back to Tracy's exit: I see her and Luke, at the most optimistic ending, scamming someone dangerous out of lots of money, and they go on the run to save their lives, and that's how they exit. Kind of fun, but at the same time, unresolved. That's the most "upbeat" ending I see for them, and I'd take that. I don't want, even if we get Lacy together in the end, a boring, happy, them sitting around the HS playing the roulette wheel.

I would rather Tracy died with her family around her, and whatever caused the death, we find out Helena is behind it.

Perhaps PC is supposed to pretend Luke is dead as well, or Helena believes he is. Either way, she doesn't expect him to come looking for revenge. Luke is in disguise as the captain of a yacht Helena is on, making her escape. (Do they call a person who directs a yacht a captain or a pilot?)Anyway, in his last scenes, as Helena is below deck, he does something to the boat to make it take on water, and he escapes in the only lifeboat. We see him calmly sitting and watching as the boat sinks. "For you, wife", he says. We see him on land using the phone, saying, "it's done", and on the other end, Ned hangs up the phone and nods to Dillon and Brook Lynn, who are also in the room. They hug each other with tears in their eyes. Luke walks out and looks up at the sky and says "where do I go now, Spanky?" and waits, as if he is expecting to hear her answer. He sits outside and plays with his wedding ring, and someone comes up behind him and puts a gun to his head. I prefer to end it there-who is it, and does he get out of it?

I think his ending should be ambiguous. Or, we could see that it is Helena, and he stands up to face her just as she pulls the trigger. As Luke is laying there, blood pouring out of his chest, his eyes become glazed and unfocused. He gasps as tears fill his eyes, and he whispers "are you really here?" as he breathes his last breath. The audience can decide who he is talking to/about: Tracy, Laura, his kids, whoever. The camera pans on Luke's still face and then to his hand, where he is clutching his wedding ring. Fade to black.

I know the pink caddy crowd would hate it, I for one, would cry my eyes out, but what a fitting ending for them both.

what is sad it will probably be more like "well since luke ran out of rehab lulu, I'm going to try to move on with my life and am moving to Europe to run the ELQ there."

There is a pic on abc.com from wed show! That stupid short jaxckd and pi k untucked tank thing again

I take it there was no LuNacy on today. So I'll just delete my dvr.

Thanks for the spoilers guys. I can't wait for LuNacy back on.

Jane Elliot coming over so we can do our interview with @MOREmag

Gosh how lucky is that interviewer/reporter!

People's responses to her were funny like "you and jane, that is too much awesomeness in one room the earth might shift on its axis" LOL

Someone said "tell her I like her hair!" extra LOL

Tracy on today for a few scenes with Luke. At the end sh walks in on Luke/Alexis scene so they for sure continue tomorrow.

I guess he was pretty awful to her but in denial and pissed and threatening to sue

Watched a little today

anybody notice that GH hair folks seem to be using the same hair dye for Jane and Carolyn? Seriously!!

He was all over the place today emotionally. He told her he loves her, then when she wouldn't back down he said she was a disappointment.

After Lulu walked out on him at Kelly's, he called Alexis to talk about suing Tracy to get her to let him back in her life. When Tracy walked into Kelly's, he smugly told her he is suing her. She looked like she was going to laugh.

He had a funny line. He told Alexis he wanted visitation rights to be able to see Ethan and Lulu.

If I could smack anyone in the world right now - it would pretty much be who ever is in charge of Jane's hair.

Enough Said

Hey there

Tracy/luke/Alexis continues today. I think tracy probably has already pre-warned Alexis or something.

Breajkdiwn fir today is that Tracy doles out some tough love. I think she and Luke have couple alone scenes after Alexis leaves.

Luke also invites Ethan to a drink today.

After today I think there are only couple Of scenes next week with lunacy/Carly .

Annie was back taping this week but only briefly. Guess she will pop in divorce Ethan and leave without a Q goodbye scene of course.

They are saying Katie couric new show will replace gh timeslot sept 2012

Really good lunacy scenes today.

Luke wants to sue tracy for haunted star and for her withholding sex! LOL

She tells alexis if she was a friend, she will stay out of this

But from what I read, JE was awesome as usual and talks about how much she loves luke and as if loving him weren't an option etc...

Couple scenes with alexis/luke and then a couple scenes with luke alone and tracy leaves.
