ATWT 6-5: Noah blames Luke; Win dies???; Ameera detained

0:05 - The arms-behind-the-head pose was used a lot by the old Casey. Of course, old Casey used to do it topless to expose his underarms.

Apparently, poor Luke's head is still hurting -- even though the woman hit him in the lower back. :)

0:28 - Lucinda: "Ben Coyle" It was Luicinda that originally got Luke connected to Coyle. Lucinda is a rich woman who has powerful connections. Ben Coyle is played by InTurn finalist Justin.
0:57 - Coyle: "Miss Aziz would be a useful bargaining chip" We still don't know why Ameera is so important to everyone
1:21 - Noah is too trusting of Ameera. He still doesn't know her true involvent in any of this, and whether she would betray Noah to Win. Her loyalties are questionable
1:51 - Luke: "I can wait for Noah" Awww, this is a reminder of the Valentine's fantasy where Nuke parted with Luke promising to wait for Noah's return from the Navy. Both involve Noah being away at sea. So so sweet
3:24 - Noah: "Why are you doing this" Notice the unmistable image of the Statue of LIBERTY in the back. That hints at freedom for Ameera (and Noah). It also reminds us of a similar scene between Nuke in the Valentine's fantasy. It was the moment where many thought Nuke should have kissed
3:48 - Win: "You don't know this girl as well as you think you do" Yes. In fact, he knows virtually nothing about Ameera
3:49 - Win: "does he, Ameera?" Note how Noah completely ignored this question. He seems to not want to know the truth about her, preferring to thionk of her only as an innocent victim
4:13 - Luke: "I'm not asking their permission, Lucinda, or yours" Whoa, calling Grandma by her first name. My grandma would have slapped me
4:30 - Luke: "I swear I will be on the phone with every newspaper in this city" Oh Luke, silly silly Luke. Do you really think that big New York City newspapers care about little stories like that? Smalltown Oakdale papers may care, but this is NYC. Furthermore, it's plain stupid to sass Port Authority after 9/11. In reality, Luke would be off to jail now. "DON'T TASE ME, BRO!"
4:58 - nOAH: "You don't have to..." Noah is so adorably innocent and naive. H is tryingto reason with a madman who attempted to murder Luke twice, and is now a fugitive with everything to lose. (a reminder, he tried to shoot Luke and then poison his IV tube in the hospital)
5:22 - Noah: "I won't let you sacrifice Ameera" Noah has a really weird distorted face
5:53 - Noah: "Let me keep her safe, protect her" If it's true that she is wanted by some underground Iraqi group, that means a lifetime of being in danger. Is Noah really willing to sacrifice his whole life, and his relationship with Luke, for this mess? Is he willing to endanger Luke and the Snyders? Why isn't Ameera pleading her own case???
6:20 - "Winston Mayer!" Coyle knows that Win has hostages yet he announces his arrival??? I hate to side with Win, but why doesn't he have any weapons???
6:46 - Noah: "Dad, nooooo!" Poor Noah truly still cares about his dad. Ameera, on the other hand, has shown no concern for Win, who supposedly helped her survive
7:08 - Noah: "she's my wife" Poor Noah is spread thin caring about everyone else although he really hasn't shown much concern for Luke
7:45 - Luke: "I was going through hell, Noah!" Noah: "You don't know what that is" Oooh, fighting biting words!" No wonder they break up...
7:52 - The shocked look Luke gives Noah says it all. The problem is that Noah doesn't want to learn the truth about Ameera, just like he didn't want to know the truth about Win. It may reveal that she's a heroic tragic figure but until we know more, Noah's sacrifices are irrational

This Justin guy never had a chance at winning InTurn. His role was way too brief and artificial...and his performance was high-school-playish. He is also too similar to last year's winner.

> This Justin guy never had a chance at

> winning InTurn. His role was way too

> brief and artificial

Well, Michael's role as the singing sailor was even more artificial and briefer (no pun intended). There was very little acting involved, although he sang and pranced topless. Based on your criteria, do you think Nell will win?

Keep in mind that viewers don't vote based on these brief scenes. They'll likely vote based on the entire show and overall likability.

[friendly76]

I thought I read that Michael already won? Maybe I read wrong. I thought that Nell's role was a little forced too. In fact, now that I think about it, all 3 seemed kind of forced and artificial. But I think that Justin's was the most amateurish.

[NukeOakdale]

Here's a secret: I've been so busy that I haven't even watch the Nuke kissing episode yet! Heck, I have over 20 videos waiting to be posted (i.e. Jake Q&A, Van Emmy, the Nuke InTurn episode).

Based on the CBS site, the winner will be revealed tomorrow 6/10. I believe it'll be announced live on The Early Show:

June 10

InTurn 3 Finale

Who will be the winner of InTurn 3? America has been voting for its favorite InTurn and the winner will be revealed in the exciting finale.

By far the worst writing I've seen all storyline long. Quite honestly, I'm under the impression that the writers are throwing in any form of angst they can possibly get their hands on just to add to the story. In reality, it's hurting and taking away from the story. This is overly ridiculous that the writing portrays Noah as insensitive to Luke's whereabouts, let alone condition. I say we start a petitio or something to get Jean Passinante out of there.

[NukeOakdale]

> the writing portrays Noah as insensitive

> to Luke's whereabouts, let alone condition

And Noah even blamed Luke for Ameera's predicament.

I've never been with an Iraqi woman so maybe I should see what all the fuss is about! :)

[mariadelta19]

"Noah blames Luke" Wow, that's a surprise! I'm shocked:O:O *Heavy sarcasm*

[fokjoudikkemongool]

GOD, I hate Ameera's voice! 3:40 "Those people want me dead.' Well, you better hurry up then, BIATCH!

[splashpont]

My vote is for Justin, even if he did not take off his shirt!

[lawrence5584]

That particular comment, "You don't know what Hell is." Particularly stings me. May I remind Noah that in reality he has had NOTHING done to him directly. Luke is the one who came out on his own, went throught the nightmare of Noah's I want you/hate you crap, got shot my Win, nearly poisoned, and was paralyzed. Sorry, but "Daddy didn't show me love," is not even the outer rim of the first layer of Hell, and I can say that from personal experience. Grow up you creaton.

[NukeOakdale]

> if I were Luke I'd have dumped his ass

> ages ago

Heh, like I said, you're adorable in a tantrum. Well, my notes are up and I agree with you. In particular, see 5:53. Noah's obsession with Ameera has never been explained.
