ATWT video clip update: No spoilers, all mad libs edition
Note, we received a number of complaints about yesterday's pithy ATWT video clip post title: "Frenching Step-Grandpappy." People felt like it gave away the big twist ending involving Wheatley and Luke. Sorry about that. We wrongly assumed that the cat was already out of the bag on that one. Today we're going to be really careful and not reveal any plot points to those who want to be completely surprised by the video clip itself. With that in mind, here's a carefully redacted synopsis...
Feel free to fill in the makeshift mad lib above via the comments section. If you want to find out what really happened, check out the video clip after the break!

A wedding breakfast?
How victorian.
Im sorry but watching this I could not help to be reminded of Cole Porter and his wife Linda and the relationship they supposedly had. Doing everything to make her happy, but having a young male thing on the side. I know they are not going in that direction (yet), but its the same vibe Im getting from Wheats.
Very interested in how Luke reacts to this, and Noah for that matter. Most be and awkward situation to be in.
snake, he said
They're pushing the Princeton ring, like they are tying to imprint those viewers who are too slow to get the major plot points. The ring he gave Lucinda was his "Princeton" -pause- ring, and she had to give him back his "Princeton" -pause- ring because he had to have his "Princeton" -pause- ring. Since no one else is privy to this information, Lucinda is going to be the one who will connect the dots and expose the snake.
I'm hoping that he turns out to be a straight man, who merely tries to play the same game on Luke that he has worked on women in the past. You know, to get Luke's fortune, as well. Or at least to get Luke's compliance in swindling Lucinda.
There have been wonderful scenes between Lucinda and Brian, but it still makes me feel kinda sick that the only way an 80 year old woman is going to get laid is if she's being swindled in some way. Why couldn't Wheatly just be an idiot like Paul? That way Lucinda could get legally laid and still have the conflict. (And I keep wondering if they think we 're suppose to go a little bit 'eeew' when he kisses her?, rather than awwww.)
And yes, this is Luke's F'en bedroom. And by F'en I mean, it's the set that they built to deflower a virgin gay boy so his Grandma Emma can catch him in the act. If you don't believe me, there are about 50,000 fan fics in the making which attempt to prove the point, maybe not about Emma, but the F'en one. Well, to be honest, the set was only a bed with a really nice quilt, but what more do they need? (this is not the same bed or bedding he had in the past)
The scene with Lily was one of the best "sush" scenes I've seen. (for lack of a better term, shush, as in shut up a character who is about to expose a plot and thereby leaving the audience and the character the only one's privy to the information) Kudos for that, I really believed that Luke is left on his own after that scene and I might actually warm up to the actress playing Lily now, because of that. .
Lucinda's prenup et al ....
My gal Lucinda has been around long enough to know that even if she's left penniless, her standard of living will never change as she and Barbara have been left penniless by their hubbies and children more often than Emily lies on her back, yet those funds just keep finding their way back to them.
I am with you about Lucinda and Brian. I really hope that they have not written the character into a wall, but there is no way that ATWT has any interest in having any of its over 40 females be looked at or much less in a relationship with a man. I would be so psyched to see Lucinda happy as it would serve as a morsel of hope that all women on the show don't have to be total doormats to get a man.
The intro of Luke's never seen boudoir at Emma's was a shocker. Even Parker has one. Last time Luke's was shown was when he was still in the closet and he and Jade faked having had sex to get Luke's parents off his back when they were about to figure out that he was gay.
I also agree with you about the shush. These little actors are trying their hardest to make the junk thrown their way work. While Noelle will never be Lily, that scene had a certain short-hand that saves the wreck.
Lucinda and Brian 4ever (at Princeton...) Shrooms for everyone!!!!

it could happen!
In this episode of As the Stomach Gurgles, our young hero Luke wakes up with a terrible hankering for a burger and vaguely recalls being inappropriately frenched by a James Bond.
When he goes to the hospital to check on his brain he discovers that he is pregnant and twins are expected.
VOTE FOR LUKE AT CBS.com
CBS ATWT POLL
Which one of these Oakdale men is the reason you tune in?
Candidates: Dusty, Paul, Brad, Jack, Luke, Casey, Holden
Vote if you feel so inclined.
"Heterosexuality is not normal, it's just common." (Dorothy Parker)
Freaking Paul is leading the pack with 75% of the vote
Roger Howarth's fans (can there really be any still out there?) must be getting organized in ways that Nuke fans have in the past as Paul's 75% is based on 4,000+ and some fans as of 9:00 eastern time. Maybe the actor comes from a big family ;-)
Paul???? Next week we'll find out that the female that keeps bringing them back is Sage or Faithless.

Well, I Won't Spoil It Either...
Say it isn't so as this may prove that there is no new beat.....
What is hardest to believe is that the writers keep mining material that did not work the first, second, tenth, hundredth time, but they keep at it. I could understand if they were ripping off their best stuff or even that of their competitors, but this seems like a suicide mission.

Wheatrkel
I move that in honor of Wheatbles delivering the infamous line:
"Did I do that?"
his nickname be used interchangably with a new one;
Urkel
because it is fitting, on so many levels.
