Luke and Laura "Day of Reckoning" P5

Luke and Laura discuss the fact that he raped her 20 years ago. These scenes offer insight into why Laura forgave him and why Luke will always be obsessed with her.

Tony Geary and Genie Francis are wonderful in these intense scenes but any longtime GH fan can tell you that Luke and Laura actually discussed the rape many times right after it occurred. It was only after Luke and Laura became an incredibly popular pairing (after the first summer on the run) that the discussions were completely dropped and the official version became a seduction. In fact, the encounter was deemed a seduction only once on screen. Basically the issue was ignored for 20 years until General Hospital revisited this dark bit of Luke and Laura's history.

This truly is sweet! Watching them is like taking Lexipro - just soothes the soul! They are SO real and SO committed to each other that it makes you believe in their kind of enduring love.
