As The World Turns

As someone who has never cared for the character of Noah Mayer (that is an understatement), I thoroughly enjoyed last week’s episodes in which Noah’s multitudes of flaws were finally laid out in detail. Someone needed to put Noah in his place, and the fact that the dressing down came from Reid made me love the good doctor all the more.

I got a hearty chuckle when Reid basically told Noah that he couldn’t stand him and was glad that their professional relationship was over. Of course Noah, who is the eternal victim, tried his usual tactic of guilt tripping, only to find Reid unfazed and unaffected.

After all, Reid has done nothing to feel guilty about. Yes, he was attracted to Luke from the start, but he never did anything to try and break Luke and Noah up and even tried to get them back together on more than one occasion despite his own feelings.

It was also nice to see Luke’s eyes finally opened about Noah’s flaws and for him to remind Noah that the state of their relationship is in large part Noah’s fault. I was also glad he told Noah that has no business or say in who Luke chooses to get involved with. Sadly though, Luke reverted to that old weak, begging Luke when he asked Noah if he still cared. One step forward, two steps back, I guess.

I will say that to his credit, Jake Silbermann looked particularly smoking last week. But someone should tell him that squinting really hard is not acting.
