Luke says he’s sorry and he knows that she had wished it were different. He wonders what made her question Scotty in the first place. Dillon says he’s a 3rd wheel in the conversation so he’s going to go. Luke and Lulu sit down and have a heart to heart. Lulu says that she had a hard time accepting the relapse so she thought that if Laura didn’t really kill Rick, Laura would wake up. Luke tells her he’s had the same fantasy. He’d like nothing better than to tell Laura he made a mistake and that she’s innocent. Lulu says that Scotty is to blame since he covered up the Theresa Carter murder. Luke says that it’s not like him to defend Scotty, but Luke was the one who made mistakes. Instead of getting Laura medical attention or going to the cops, he thought he knew what was best. He was afraid that she couldn’t stand up under a murder trial. He thought his great love would be enough, but it wasn’t.
