All the other stuff doesn't shock me. Please tell me that someone will see that Gabi is a selfish b#%$#% that only wants her romance with Nick the... Yeah you know how to finish that sentence. She knows Will should be upset, but she won't risk her happiness for the sake of her own child or Will, whom she claims to care for as a friend. Please tell me that Abby finds out about why Chad hates Gabi so much and her walls come tumbling down soon after. Maybe Will could help with that. A murderer and a kidnapper as a parent is nothing to gloss over either! |

Yeah, but Sami is pushy and much more assertive than Lucas. She's in a league of her own. You can't justify Lucas to play as big as a role. He said his peace and I'm sure there will be opportunity later for him to do so again. |

Assertive doesn't have anything to do it, and happen I to disagree with your assessment. Can't justify him playing a bigger role? HE'S WILL'S FATHER. Have him just pop up once and awhile to say his peace?! HE'S WILL'S FATHER. Whatever - I am tired of talking about this. It is what it is. Hopefully Lucas will have semi-substantial scenes in the s/line, and that's that. Edited by elci525, Jan 26 2013, 01:44 PM.

Right. And it's not only that he's Will's father, but his own personal story has certain parallels from the male/father perspective with Will's current situation. Will is the one on the outside looking in, and Lucas is the only one in this story with that perspective. Sami is the one who kept Lucas on the outside, she can give that perspective in relation to Gabi, but Lucas is needed as the one who had his child kept from him by the child's mother for the first years of his life and what being a father meant to him once he knew Will was his child. I would think as Will is in the Lucas role, that Lucas would be paramount to this story. |

:$ It is so strange to me that you think this way about Nick, whom I think is Looney Tunes, but EJ is also a kidnapper, a rapist, a murderer (he shot that Lady Policeman working for the SPD) and he shot her face to face in front of others. He has been into drugs, and I mean the selling of them, cause he sold the business to Vivian's son when he was here from Australia, Brent or what ever his name was. and has kidnapped Rafe and kept him in a prison cell in the dungeon part of the mansion, and kept him drugged up. I have no use for him, and for Nick either. But I do not understand how anyone can figure EJ is so wonderful when he was responsible for the kidnapping his own daughter, kept her from Sami, and threw her clothing into the river forcing her to think that her sweet little Sydney was dead.... Just don't blink twice in a row, EJ will tear the place apart in that length of time. :sheep: :soapbox: |

The difference is Ej isn't trying to keep Lucas from being a father. Has Will done anything to Nick to cause him to want revenge on him? Ej and Sami have done a lot of things to each other and to others. Nick and Ej aren't the same person with the same motivations. If Nick wasn't pulling a Rafe or being a homophobe folks just might have loved him, too. I don't think Lucas is the only one who's had a mother keep their children from them. Eventually. Often it's easier for someone to go to a friend, or a brother than their parents, especially if they think they've disappointed them. Right now, Will thinks he's disappointed his parents, and frankly, he has and that's why it's easier for him to talk to EJ than either Sami or Lucas. Edited by SpriteEyes, Jan 25 2013, 03:20 PM.

No, he's not - but he is Will's father, which no matter which way you spin it, puts him in more direct line with Will than EJ. And so for that reason, I also agree that he would be paramount to this story. And so far, it's looking like he won't be. I question whether the spoilers about Nick finding out about Will and Lucas will have anything to do with Lucas, or with Will and Lucas, if they realize what Nick is doing, together deciding how to scheme their way out of the trap. I just fear that won't happen (please show, prove me wrong). There are many reasons for EJ's involvement in this story, reasons that span the spectrum from plot driven to more character-driven/organic. For better or worse, EJ for whatever reason has helped Will in the past, so it's not totally out of left field that he should help him now. And he is also a lawyer, conveniently, which puts his character in more direct position to logistically effect change or handle the custody bits. I think it's also a way for Ejami to get propped a little, to show EJ and Sami scheming together, to show EJ on Sami's side, to show Sami appreciative of EJ's help, etc. I think all those factors are legitimate and at play here. I just worry that Lucas will be squeezed out to make room for EJ, and that is the eternal poppycockery that irritates the hell out of me. I agree that right now I can understand Will not turning to his parents or anyone in his family so heavily. I just hope that you are right and that eventually Lucas does become consistently involved. I just fear he won't be, given the little air time Lucas is given in general, BD's tweets, and how the thrust of the story seems at least partially substantially focused on Ejami. Lucas has a very valid, legitimate place in this story. And so far we have had many scenes of Rafe, EJ, Sami talking about Will, and just one of Lucas and Sami discussing Will (thankfully Lucas was the first to discuss the baby with Will, and I was thrilled about that. I just hope it isn't the last convo we see in awhile). And then there are spoilers that at least ostensibly seem focused on Sami, Rafe and EJ. I just fear the show isn't interested in inserting Lucas or even Kate into this story, or in showing Lumi in any kind of partnership throughout. It's a realistic fear given the apparent momentum or thrust of the narrative - I really, really hope I am proven wrong. Edited by elci525, Jan 25 2013, 03:44 PM.

I have to say- I've actually been thinking of tuning back in lately. I saw a bit of a couple of episodes last couple of weeks and these last few spoilers seem interesting. I kinda like Rafe being a dick?? Hmmm. And of course love my EJami. And NB seems to be doing better this go round. :-) I dont mind Bristen actually, fake, or real. Sorry, but kinda glad john is off screen. Maybe his personality chip will be in working order when he returns? Marlena too. |

If Will had been a better shot,he would be a murderer too.I think Will's deliberate attempt to kill EJ,covering up for Sami shooting EJ in the head,stealing information from Abe's computer,and helping EJ go on the run when suspected of murdering Stefano kind of evens him out with Gabi who tried to get Andrew to let Melanie go, did help Melanie escape in the tunnel,actually showed remorse for her crimes,and made plans to turn herself in to the police (unlike Stefano,Kate,Victor,Kristin,Sami,and EJ).As far as I am concerned Gabi is as entitled to be a parent as Stefano,Kate,Victor,EJ,and Sami. |

I agree that Lucas should have a bigger role to play in this storyline, I think the main problem is that Tomlin considers the character to be irrelevant. It's hard to overcome that kind of obstacle, IMO. Hell, Tomlin is not even bothering to write scenes for Lucas and Kate in any real capacity. That can't be good. I don't think that Will accepting advice from EJ or EJ wanting to help Will equals EJ usurping Lucas' fatherly role, though. Let's face it, when this whole baby thing came out of nowhere both Lucas and Sami got pretty excitable about the whole thing while EJ can look at it from a less personal, more detached POV. It was the same thing when Will came out, Sami and Lucas freaked while EJ calmly let Will know he was on his side and could be counted on for support. Will is a young adult who is well aware of who his parents are and he doesn't see EJ as a fatherly figure, but rather more of a mentor that at times he's on the outs with. Completely different from say Johnny/Allie/Sydney and their relationship with Rafe, which due to their young ages resulted in him very much being a replacement father to them. |
