Live! November 5th, Nuke Day!

Luke accuses Mason of wanting Noah. Or basically Luke gets his bitch face in gear;)

They're on again already? :eee:

Why do we have to see Luke and Noah again? They're on all the time. They need to be backburnered.

But congrats to Carly. She gets the whole week. I predict a diva fight between Maura and The Screamer for airtime.

that's what I'm dreading. any screentime for the boys will be even worse, until the screamer is gone.

Oh, the preview scene already.

*hunts it down* There we go.

Yo's. Luke hesitates and then walks inside. Noah's there with Mason and several people from the movie.

Mason: To our first day in the can!
*clinking beer glasses*
*Noah spots Luke and goes over*
Noah: What are ya doin here!
Luke: Checking up on you! I got your text message, you said you were filming all night.
Noah: Yeah, we just finished, that's why we're having a beer for breakfast.
Luke: Ahh, that explains it.
Noah: Hey, not that I have a problem with the look, but what's with the tie?
Luke: Oh, Grimaldi meeting, I'm covering.
Noah: Oh, so you'll have to skip the party. But I don't think you met everybody yesterday, you wanna come over?
Luke: I can't.
Noah: Look, Luke, I'm trying here. I was up all night shooting a movie, I'm psyched about it, and I want to share that with you, but you're kinda being Mr. Attitude about the whole thing.
Luke, quietly: No, no, I just told you I was coming to see how you were, I have to go to my meeting...
*guys making noise in the background*
Luke: ...and to see if you're having any fun, but obviously you are, so... (That line doesn't really make any sense, I can't quite make out what Luke says.)
Mason: Hey there, Luke Skywalker! *puts arm around Noah* We had a fantastic night. So turn that frownnnn upside-down.

Java. Meg is talking with Officer Grady about Damian. He wants to see Jack, but Meg says he can't. Meg does say she'll make sure Damian gets exactly what he deserves. Ah, it's always good to make a veiled threat in front of a cop.

Lily's pacing alone in the courtroom when Damian shows up. Lily's all "Ugh, just leave." I predict he'll win her over in about 20 seconds. Oh, ten! They hug as Holden walks in. The judge walks in. Holden says he's made his decision -- his marriage is over.

Sidenote: I went for a brisk walk on my lunch break, had a nice salad, and was feeling pretty good about myself today. Someone just walked in my office with Cold Stone Creamery. Oh, cruel, delicious world.

Mason: Alright, I'm gonna get more beer!
*walks away*
Noah: Alright, what's wrong?
Luke: Oh, nothing's wrong, Noah. It's just that this is your thing and I'm not really part of it.
Noah: You are to ME. Hey, why did you leave yesterday during the breakup scene?
Luke: I wanted to get out of your way. And also, you know, I had some stuff to deal with with my family.
Noah: Oh yeah, you mentioned that. Everything okay?
Luke, quietly: Uh, no, just stuff with my dad and uh..
Mason, rushing up: Hey, Noah, there's a campus reporter who wants a quote from you.
Noah: Yeah, that can wait. *turning back to Luke* What's up?
Luke, assuringly: No, it's nothing, it's just the same old stuff, do your interview. I have to get to my meeting anyway. Go, have fuuuun.
Noah: Alright. You'll come back after?
Mason: Romeo? Duty calls. *Noah rushes away, Luke leaves*
*Noah's talking on the phone. Luke gives him a lingering look before leaving*

Meg is slutting herself up at Fashions.

Holden's talking to the judge about putting the past behind him. Lily agrees. Holden tells Lily good luck. Lily asks why he kissed her yesterday.

Aw, Noah, trying to be there for Luke. :wub:

Lily is blaming Maeve for all of this. OMG LILY.

Holden: I'm not that same person who jumped out of the hayloft to find you.

Wow, old reference! Holden then says Lily always waits for someone to come along and rescue her. Daaaayum.

Lakeview. Luke on his phone.

Luke: Thanks. *hangs up* Oh, Dad, hey.
Holden: Hey!
Luke: How did the hearing go? .... That bad, huh?
Holden: Well, they confirmed me alive...
Luke: Well, congratulations on that...
Holden: But my marriage, however, is officially dead.
Luke: Oh. Wow. I mean, I knew that you thought that might happen but -- I'm really sorry.
Holden: Well, hey, if nothing else you don't have to watch your two dads fighting over you anymore, right?
Luke: Look, Dad, I know someone had to lose in this mess. But I'm really sorry it was you.
Holden: You wouldn't wish it on Damian either.
Luke: I suppose not. I guess i was just looking for some pie-in-the-sky ending that's completely unrealistic and everything could just be fine.
Holden: Yeah. For the three of us, it's not gonna happen. But, for you and Noah, things are still good! And you have to keep that up. Listen, Luke, I want you to know that, um. I still do love your mom. I love her very much. But, you know, sometimes you figure out that things just aren't meant to be anymore, and you need to let them go. :(

Lily and Damian are chatting at the Lakeview. Meg appears in a slutty dress in the background.
Damian: Uh, I have to go check on something. Your drink should be here in a second.
Lily: I didn't see you order one.
Damian: I do a lot of things for you that you don't see. D)

HA. That was kind of awesome.

Meg brings up the DNA test.

I never thought I would say this but: GO MEG!!!

Damian is so screwed!

They're watching the filmed scenes at Yo's. Ooh, the camera was still rolling after they cut! Luke walks in!

Mason, on screen: That's a buy, that was great! You guys, that was awesome. You were awesome! *kisses Noah's forehead*
*Luke awkwardly rolls his eyes*
Noah: Who kept that camera rolling?
Mason: It's alright, sweetheart, I always end up on the cutting room floor! It's a joke, Noah it's a joke.
Noah, walking up to Luke: You um...you saw that.
Luke: Yep.
Noah: You know, it's Mason, I mean...
Luke: Yep!
Noah: Okay, don't be like this. I'm not interested in Mason.
Luke: Well, he's made it pretty clear he's very interested in you.
Mason, coming up: Noah? *hands Noah the same phone from before*
Noah: Not my phone, not his, it's just our set phone, okay? *runs off to take a call*
Mason: Thanks.
*Mason stands near Luke, sipping his beer*

Luke: So! The stuff you guys shot last night looks great.
Mason: Yeah! Like I said, your boyfriend is good. Hmm. So, how much of that did you see? :)
Luke: Oh, the dailies, hmmmmm? Just a little bit.
Mason: Hmm. What did you think?
Luke: Well, I got to tell you, the breakup scene between Rob and Mary -- two thumbs up.
Mason: Mmm.
Luke, eyes narrowing: However, I did think that the kiss at the end? Was a little pathetic.
Mason: :) *sips beer*
*Luke smiles/smirks*

Okay, I kind of loved that.

Meg's talking more about the DNA tests. Damian's all "Alright. What do you want from me." Meg says "I'm your friend. I think you know what that means."

Meanwhile, Holden sees Lily back in the bar area, alone. They talk about how they still have feelings for each other, blah blah.

Damn, Mason has gone from shit to pond scum!

I don't know which is more gross! LOL

Meg says she can help Damian out, and she wants to be his friend. She starts making out with him in his hotel room. Lily knocks at the door. Meg's like "Yes!" Damian's like :o

Back at Java Yo's. God, I'm so used to typing Java!

Luke: You're his professor.
Mason: Yes. And for as long as I am, it's hands off.
Luke: Yeah, is that why you kissed him--
Mason: But when the term is over and when this film is done? It's game on.
Luke: *scoffs* It's "game on"?
Mason: Yeah.
Luke: Does Noah know that?
Mason: Oh. Noah is a big boy.
Luke: Hmm. :)
Mason: I'm pretty sure that he's capable of making his own decisions as to who he should or should not be with. Now. Tell me something, Luke. Do you think your last name and your snappy wardrobe are gonna be enough to keep you warm at night?
Luke: :angry:
Noah, walking up: Hey, did I miss something?
Mason: Oh.
Noah: What? Is it the dailies? Did I screw up? I mean, you can tell me, I've got thick skin.

Oh, oblivious Noah.

"Snappy wardrobe" HAHAHA.

snappy wardrobe? :rofl

I LOVED Luke's smug little smirk back to Mason right after Noah told him, that Luke is 'his guy."

Luke's face was like: "Eat that, Mason!

"Your my guy" :wub:

Noah is so adorable. I just want to squeeze him.

Uh Mason-think much of yourself? Arrogant, aren't we?

And Luke, darlin' smirk away;)

Lily's still knocking. Meg goes to happily answer the door, but Damian makes her stay put. He goes outside and shuts the door. Lily's all "Do you know how long I've been waiting downstairs?! Long enough to have a run-in with Holden that I didn't want to have." Damian asks for 10 more minutes. Lily says she'll leave in 15. Damian kisses her and goes back in his room. Meg says Damian's secret is safe with her and leaves, too. Damian's scowling in his room. Lily runs into Holden again at the elevator. Blah blah.

Yo's.

Luke, pushing past Mason: Noah, from what I saw of your film, it's great.
Noah: You're sure.
Luke: Yeah! But Mason did toss my script out, and his supervision and direction of the project, you know, it affects me. I'm only human.
Mason: Aren't we all.
Noah: Did I miss something here?!
Mason: No. Look, with the first script and my ideas and your talent, I mean, we worked something out. Filmmaking is truly collaborating.
Luke: You are some collaborator.
Mason: The bottom line is we want this film to be great. Right?
Luke: ...
*Mason walks away*
Noah: You have to know how harmless he is by now.
Luke: And you have to understand how STUPID that sounds right now.
Noah: What?
Luke: Noah, he kisses you when you do a good take. He's flinging his arm around you every chance he gets. And if you want proof, he just admitted it to me. He said when this project is done? It's open season.
Noah: Open season for what?
Luke: For YOU.
Noah: I don't believe that, truly, I don't! ^_^
Luke: You think I'm lying?!
Noah: No! I think he's a big flirt. It's meaningless! I'm with you. I don't think Mason cares.
Luke: Uh, well I do!
Noah: And that is enough. Look, when the film is done and Mason gives me my grade, the collaboration is over. Okay?
Luke: *sighs*
Noah, smiling: You look really cute.
Luke: Yeah, well. You didn't get any sleep and you've been drinking beer for breakfast.
Noah: Oh, you still look cute. Now come on. I want you to be here. You're my guy.
*they both walk back over to the party, right up near Mason*
Mason: :mellow:
Luke: :)

End.
