  • As a Luke fan who has been watching through three horrible years with Noah, the least they could do is give Luke a happy ending with a REAL MAN like Reid. They owe to to Luke's character not to leave him in an emotionally abusive relationship with a Neanderthal like Noah.

  • @anniemann101 Wow...just wow. I was trying to be nice, you are obviously not. No point to making any more comments. It's obvious that you are one of those people who's opinion is the only one. Good luck with that.

  • @anniemann101 First of all, don't call me an "elder"...I'm not THAT old...I was 5 when I started watching! LOL Secondly, I was merely pointing out that there are different opinions and you shouldn't be so upset by differing opinions. I am also a long time fan of Jake and Van, and their characters. I would like to see them happy, which they have not been for a long time. The magic has gone out of their relationship. Why not let them mature, grow and move on? That's all.

  • @anniemann101 I have been watching this show for almost 40 years, and I would like a Luke/Reid ending. You can't speak for all of us! We all have different opinions. I happen to think a fitting ending would be Luke and Noah growing out of their young love teenage relationship and moving on. That is what normally happens in real life - why not in soap-land?

  • @traciamc Preach! :D

  • Noah Mayer the worlds biggest idiot. I swear ge is coming off more and more like a gorilla.

  • I like Nuke, I love Lure. To me Reid really did hate Luke at first, then they started working together on the new wing (probably why Bob said Reid couldn't have both since Luke's basically paying for it) and then Luke defended him, which I think Reid finds attractive since not a lot of people defend him. Also Reid didn't make a move until he thought that Noah had moved on, even if he really hadn't.

  • Many fans of Luke/Reid are former Nuke fans who deserve a good ending just as much as anyone else. I loved Nuke until they proved time and time again that they were toxic for each other. Re: the break up, if you ask the person you've been dating for three years what you are to each other and he says "We're friends!" then the break-up has already happened. Noah just didn't have the balls to say it and instead he forced Luke into making the decision.

  • Reid told Noah that he was going to perform the brain surgery on him, if Noah got rid of Luke for a while. Okay, maybe "got rid of" isn't proper word usage here. But Reid did tell Noah that Luke needed to back off. Noah and Luke were in a relationship at first, and Reid is Noah's doctor. It just doesn't seem right.

  • Angry Noah = Super Hotness! XD

  • Noah ... nice punch and Reid you would never pick anything over work so ha!

  • The look on reid's face at 0:28 he looks like he wants to just kick Bob's ass and I don't blame him tellin me who I should see and shouldn't see. The funny thing is thar earlier bob was telling reid that there was more to life than just work, and when he finally find someone to spend time with you want to say no it's either him or your job basically. How would bob feel if someone said that about his wife? what an ASS!

  • i knew this was gonna happen reid is a baby noah your man noah saying this is my man you cant have him all mine

  • WTF Gives Bob the right to tell Reid he either has to choose to be with Luke or get the new wing? that was wrong and I hope reid makes a good decision because he shouldn't have to be put in that position. If I were him and Luke I would leave and go to another state and start a new life, that way reid can find job at another hospital and they can open a new wing together. Poor reid he has alot on his plate he has his job to think about, the decision to be with Luke and Noah punching him.

  • @anniemann101 I just think people should remember what actually happens on screen instead of making up stuff. I love that interview because Van is so candid. But also because he makes it very clear that Luke is the one who did the breaking up (for good or bad and for whatever reasons). I'm sick of folks who keep saying Noah broke up with Luke and now wants him back. It is simply not true. Couples take a break from each other all the time, it's normal, it doesn't have to mean "breakup".

  • @PlatypusRising55 Well I would agree with that. Had they not constantly described the relationship as "over" or broken. They seemed pretty final about it as well as the fact that Noah drove Luke to the point of their break up AND went on a date with another guy within the same week if I recall.

    Now I'm not naive, relationships are complicated things, but Noah needs to stop taking Luke for granted.

  • @phantomsluva Regardless of how we make feel about how Luke and Noah treated or treat each other. I was just addressing the fact that Luke made the decision to break up with Noah. Noah just wanted some distance to process his feelings about being blind, about the accident. He asked for time and space to be on his own. Luke and Noah still very much loved each other. That was evident in the scene where Luke broke up with Noah. I'm just advocating accuracy abotu what happened. Not sides.

  • @PlatypusRising55 Luke asked Noah for all or nothing and Noah chose nothing. Yes Luke instigated the break up but Noah didn't put up a fight at all which frankly I think is worse. Luke ended it because he couldn't take it anymore, Noah pulled away for what? Pride?

  • @phantomsluva Well, yes, Pride. Luke and Noah both have emotional issues because of how they were raised. Yes, Noah is very prideful. For good or bad, that's who he is. He hates feeling weak, he felt like Luke was smothering not because he didn't love Luke or appreciate him but because he hated not feeling like he could take care of himself. Being blind was obviously traumatizing for him and it takes people years sometimes to adjust to that kind of trauma. Luke can FIX everything.

  • @PlatypusRising55 I think Noah said to Luke the reason why he was with Richard was because he wasn't him. That he preferred to be with someone who didn't love him or care so much. Luke always cares too much and always will. Asking for space is a break up. And does it really matter who broke up. Obviously they have a very toxic relationship. Reid is a very lonely man who welcomes Luke overcaring side. Noah will never want this. Ergo Noah and Luke are each better off with other people.

  • @xzzyq Noah never dated Richard. Richard is Noah's friend. Richard and Noah had dinner and hung out during rehab. Noah made this clear to jealous Luke. Luke chose not to believe Noah (as it seems viewers have chosen not to believe Noah). Crazy. Writers never indicate Noah is lying about Richard. We have no reason to believe Noah and Richard aren't just friends. Gay men CAN be just friends. Plus, Noah asked Richard to help surprise Luke, the man he loves. Richard knows Noah loves Luke.

  • @PlatypusRising55 Luke asked Noah why he could hang with Richard and not him. It wasn't romantic. Noah said hanging with others was easier cuz they didn't want to fix him or take care of him. It was easier to be with Richard cuz he had no expectations of Noah, wasn't trying to make Noah better, tie his shoes, button his shirt , cut up his meat for him. It can be hard to feel weak in front of your lover. Their desire to "help" overwhelms and isn't what you need (despite their love for you)

  • @PlatypusRising55 Viewers saw Noah gently speak almost apologetically to Richard that really he still loves Luke. If he was just a friend he wouldn't have used that tone that you use when you're trying to let someone down easy. But really the main issue was that he told Luke that he just didn't want to be around him & his suffocating love. I'm just saying that's Luke. And if he finds this trait suffocating then he needs to let him go. Love is not enough if it doesn't lead to happiness.

  • @xzzyq OR, Noah was just telling Richard (his friend) that he's still in love with Luke. If Noah's been talking to Richard about the difficulties with Luke since his accident, it would make sense that he'd talk to Richard about the fact that despite everything, he knows he's still in love with Luke. I interpret Noah's manner to be about HIS emotional state, not a need to let Richard down. There's no suggestion Noah and Richard dated. They could've, but there's nothing that says they did.

  • VAN HANSIS QUOTE

    "Noah didn’t know where his life was going, he couldn't commit, and that was not good for Luke. Noah needed space. Luke said, “I can be here for you. I can give you what you need.” All Noah needed from Luke was a little bit of space. It was Luke who actually broke up with Noah and now Noah wants Luke back. Luke is not sure anymore, even though it was him who broke up with Noah. The entire time Noah didn't want to break up, he just wanted some space. Luke couldn't handle that."

    The Van Hansis Interview – As the World Turns

  • Noah is a dull, ungrateful, selfish idiot, he's also emotively abusive toward Luke and treats him like a doormat. He needs to leave Oakdale forever.

    Luke are Reid are a BILLION times more interesting to watch than anything involving Noah.

  • Noah rocks! if anything Ried said something that pushed Noah over the edge thats my take on it. I like Ried but sometimes he should shut up. If anyone remembers Noah told Ried he wanted Luke, still loved him so to find out the doctor who saved him and knew how Noah felt about luke kiss his one and only would make anyone want to throw a punch.

  • @aberri79 I think you should take a look at their body language. Of course Reid's going to make a few jibes at Noah it's his nature. Reid's extended his hand to Noah requesting a truce. And Noah punches him in the face. One word Noah.

    DOUCHE!

    I mean seriously you say that you BLEW your relationship when the man you love begs you to give it another shot and now suddenly your jealous? HOW is this fair or justified?

  • @phantomsluva Exactly.

  • can anyone tell me why noah punched reed?

  • I'm seriously wondering why people think Reid deserved to be hit. If anything, he''s been more mature about this mess than Luke (most days) and Noah (pretty much always). He's an ass, yeah, but punching him after being a complete jackass to the man who loved you for so long? Not cool. Oh, and let's make this clear for anyone who doesn't get why many fans still don't like Noah...

    If he never had his sight back, he would have continues to blame Luke for the accident. That's a fact.

  • Love that Reid is trying to shake Noah's hand when Noah punches him, OMG DOAH U R SUCH A DOUCHE SOMETIMES.

  • @edenrising

    I noticed that Reid was trying to shake Noah's hand. Just like stupid Noah to show up and cause problems.

  • Anyone else get a thrill when Noah punched Reid? *raises hand*

  • LOL @ Lukes reaction to the punch!!

    And NOAH THIS IS WHY YOU'LL NEVER GET LUKE BACK!!!!

    Immature, ungrateful snob.

  • @notsonice44 YOU CAN SAY THAT AGAIN!

  • Yes, Noah is a total asshole. He conveniently forgets how he broke up with Luke and treated him like shit for months, and the fact that Dr. O gave him back his sight. Reid had every right to make a move on Luke if he wanted, and it was also clear that Luke was putting himself right out there for Reid to move on!

  • Noah is a total douche. Reid didn't deserve that punch at all! Noah broke up with Luke! He told him Luke didn't need his permission to date! I could go on and on, but bottom line: Noah doesn't deserve Luke after everything he's done. Reid and Luke are a much better couple!

  • I don't get where people think Reid deserved that punch. Luke & Noah broke up months ago, Luke told Noah he needed all or nothing & Noah said he couldn't do it so Luke told him it was over. Guess you missed that episode. Reid did not make a move on Luke until way after they broke up. He constantly asked Luke & was trying to push them back together by talking to Noah.

  • @limeybird2

    I totally agree. Why does everyone have convenient membory where Noah is concerned. 

  • Yeah... right... punch the guy who gave you your sight back... That's what I call gratitude.

  • Noah makes me throw up a little -_-

  • If you pause at 0:32 you can see that Jake's fist misses Reid entirely. That's pretty lame guys.

  • what a fake punch!!! Love their reactions to the punch as well, especially Bob who barely moves haha

  • Noah won't be winning any brownie points with Luke for that act. He embarrassed Luke at his job in front of a potential donor. This is probably the catalyst that will push Luke and Reid closer together. 

  • @xzzyq

    Are you guys a week ahead of us or how did you know this? I haven't seen this episode yet.

  • Reid is attempting a handshake and Noah sucker punches him. Yes, Noah is such really put Reid in his place. Please. Noah will always be a wussy.

  • GO NOAH! Finally someone puts Dr. Jerkface in his place!

  • Great punch! And so well deserved. Reid, you've had that coming for a long time.

  • O_O how dare noah punch reid,fuck.....i imagine a whole string of people wanting to come up and beat noah for hurting reid..... welllllll that's just my wishful thinking ;P

    maybe luke will pick reid after he see's noah be an even bigger asshole....

  • Noah is such a jerk, Reid wanted to shake his hand and he punched him right in front of potential investor. Grow up Noah!!!

  • that punch looks so fake...lol Poor Reid, Noah please go to hell.

  • I don't understand y he has to choose.....y can't he have both

  • angry Noah is hot. & Reid looks good even when punched. But I'm thinking this seals the deal. Bob is putting up his stop sign on Luke and Reid  and everyone is against them. Anyone knows in any fairy tale romance the hero who gets the fair maidens hand is the one who has to fight through all the obstacles to claim her. I'm thinking Noah may not be done but he's out.

  • @xzzyq You're right, Angry Noah is sooooooooo hot!

  • @xzzyq

    Bob is an ass.

  • @rothk0405 Ur tellin me that was very wrong of him to say that and I hope reid tells him off.

  • Damn, Noah!! At :30! LOL!

  • Well that punch certainly looked better than the one with that stupid Judd guy. I hope Luke will take care of Reid (L) Put some ice on his face or something^^ that would be adorable:)

  • AAAHHHH OMG OMG OMG!!! Noah is back in action! In the last few episodes all the love I had for him as a character has returned! It's like he has seen the lig..... haha, LOL!

    So, what to do.... LuRe or Nuke...? How about NuRe?! Uhm, maybe not such a good idea after that punch....

    ...it's such a pitty, I'm rushing though my weekend to see this!! ;)

  • Is it really too much to ask that the CarJack angst ends and they get some happiness? Come on we've been waiting over 4 years now! ENOUGH!

  • Now this I can't wait to see....

  • CAN'T WAIT for Noah to punch Reid. I'm so excited!! :D

  • Looking forward to Noah punching Reid! :D

  • OMG.... cant wait 4 the luke, noah and reid scenes!!.. y does it have 2 end... Some1 else buy it!
