The Hot Tub Gays return to "As the World Turns" ... Will things get slippery for Nuke?
Back in February, in one of this year's most entertaining episodes of As The World Turns (I know, it's so hard to choose), Luke and Noah were in those post-toaster strudel but pre-Ameera days when their storyline still had the glimmer of potential. After months of holding hands and stall mucking, Luke was out of his wheelchair and the guys were growing antlers for each other. Luckily, they happened to run into Oakdale's other gay couple, Reg, and his hilariously leering boyfriend Tony (who, after one look at Noah, already has him stripped and staked out and covered with honey). "Rony" invites Nuke to a weekend in the woods, complete with hot tub (no swimsuits allowed!). Eventually, the guys decide against such debauchery (and come to think of it, that may be the moment when Nuke Jumped the Shark), and poor Reg and Tony are left to wander the streets of Oakdale, looking for other unconsummated gay couples to pick up and defile. (Click here for a refresher on this episode). Luckily for Reg fans (and aren't we all?), he will be returning to stir the plot pot between our guys. From VanHansis.net: "In the wake of the Col. Mayer drama, Luke asks Noah just how much of a break he wants and Noah replies that he wants to end things. "He needs time," explains Jake Silbermann (Noah). "In his heart, he knows Luke was coming from the right place, but it was such a painful course of events that it's difficult to look at that person and not feel anger about the situation and not be reminded constantly about the things that have happened." A devastated Luke heads to Java and runs into a friend, Reg, who is interested in him. Luke tells Noah, who responds that Luke is free to date who he wants. Later, Noah spies Reg with Luke. "Noah sees them talking and gets the wrong idea because Luke and Noah are still very much together in both their minds," says the actor. "Noah is hurt by it, but at the same time, he doesn't know what to do about it because he still needs that respite. So, what will Noah do now, especially with Ameera leaving town? "He's going to do what he can to try and heal. But Luke will be in his thoughts." Will Reg invite Luke to another weekend in the woods, complete with hot tub (no swimsuits allowed!)? And if he does, will Luke accept, and dare to dip his toes in the bubbles of sin? Or will Noah finally come to his senses and go after Luke? And how does Cyndi fit into all of this? And where's Tony?! Something tells us we haven't seen the last of him either ... Stay tuned! Check out Rony's clip after the jump ... and thanks to Brian (a reader, not the associate editor!) for the tip! Submitted by on Thu, 2008-06-12 10:29. |

Rub a Dub Dub...three men and a shark in a hot tub
At this point even if they did make the couple totally trashy it couldn't be any worse than what's gong on now.
Plus I think the people behind the scenes will look more foolish...they'd go from having Cyndi on to exploring trash.
I'd hate to be the cleaning crew around the hot tub...all that water they are gonna splash around from jumping up and down in it...messy.
Say what???

Easy breezy Mr. Cheesy...Noah will handle it like he's handled the entire relationship...pretend that you are not a couple. You did it with your dad...you when friends came around after you started dating...you did it when you married Anightmeera when you lied to the police and Homeland Security. Pretend. Just get that stupid look you get...you know the one...the one that looks like a constipated chimp that can't figure out how to get the fruit on the other side of the glass. We ALL know you can do it. To quote Aurora Greenway, "
FlapNoah, you know, one of the nicest qualities about you has always been that you recognized your weaknesses. Don't lose that quality now just when you need it the most!"You forgot to add that Noah
Reg would be so much better for Luke than Noah
In fact, maybe they could swap partners: Luke falls for Reg, who dumps Tony, who immediately seduces Noah; Luke and Reg stay together, leading the Gay Student Union at Jokedale U, while Tony and Noah move to LA to become pron stars.

Wow a year for Luke and Noah and..
I'll put it bluntly.
Luke needs to get laid. And I'd rather his first time be with somebody who's worthy, and Noah doesn't cut it for me, anymore: I think he's inherited his father's nutty genes. And given that Reg is clearly experienced in the ways of man-love, who better to deflower Luke?

well....
Puh-lease. We're talking about ATWT here.
I wish they could bring back the other guy from the GLBT club. The guy that had Noah going ballistic over Luke, also just having a coffee with him in Old Towne. Now, he was cute.
Roth
I think Luke should give
OMG
Y'know seeing Nuke go through some of the crap storylines every other couple has gone through might be entertaining in a very bad way.
As Much As.....
But wouldn't that be a cop
Will somebody please get that shark out of the hot tub?
Thank you.
Now where were we? My Luke, have you been working out? You certainly look uh well-developed up here. And even more so down there!
they could bring back roth
Roth - FTW
Roth - That's the one.
I couldn't remember his name, Bountiful. I thought he was really cute.
He Was Very Cute...
... and I think he's gotten a little cuter since his last appearance.
As much as I'm savoring this plot point, the only thing that could make it even better would be if Luke would remember what a nasty little brat he used to be and play some serious mind games with Noah. Sort of like the mind games Noah has been playing with Luke for months now.
I don't know how long Reg is going to be around, though I'm hoping this is more than a one shot deal. It would be nice for the boys to have some other gay guys to interact with, if only as friends.
I remember that clip
I Think That Might Be....
God, this show is painful
God, this show is painful to watch. I TIVO it and find myself fast-forwarding through not only everything non-NUKE but also half of the NUKE crap.
I've yet to see Noah's appeal. He's utterly selfish and can't get past his daddy issues. Any man with an ounce of self-respect would dump that little prick and let him fend for himself for a while. Instead, they have Luke sniveling and skulking behind hoping to pick up a love crumb or two. What's sad is that I'm beginning to dislike Luke as a result. This storyline has fallen into the crapper with the rest of the show.
Bring Back Tony Too
Adding the Lecherous Tony to the mix would be Trash-ily entertaining. Either, Luke could date both Reg and Tony or Tony could poach Noah. ATWT would never do this but it would make it so-bad-its-bad watchable again.
I agree with Nukely in
I agree with Nukely in another thread.
Preteen Parker is gonna get laid long before his Uncle Luke ever does!!!
I mean, the TIIC at ATWT are not gonna allow a gay couple on their show have sex! No, no, no!
;{
"You bit the hand, Marty, You bit the hand!"
Does Lycra rot?
Or does it just drop from the hips when entering a boy filled hot tub? OMG I like my version of Nuke more than the one the writers have so lamely put forth. What's with Luke's darkeming locks? Is he going to SFW on us and stalk Noah, to have his life?
There are many more ways to tittilate than switching to some miseltoe.
The only thing I don't like
The only thing I don't like about this development is that the idea Noah gets is "wrong." Meaning that he thinks Luke has moved on but it's just a big misunderstanding. Instead, I wish that Luke really WOULD move on and that what Noah sees is the real deal.
Luke has been beyond patient since the beginning. Did you see today's episode? Katie stood up for herself and told Brad to put her before Janet. Luke needs to borrow some of that spine. He used to have one of his own.Yah and Katie has such a
I didn't say he should ask
ruke/reke/lure/???
What's in a name?
