ok, why would Stefano offer to help Will? I don't like this! Lucas where are you when we need you?

Stefano is only helping Will because Will is Kate's grandson. crazy as it is, that old coot loves Kate and will do anything for her. but, it will also upset Sami and for whatever reasons, Stefano no longer likes Sami. so he kills two birds with one stone, so to speak. (makes Kate happy and ticks off Sami). can you imagine how Lucas must feel knowing Stefano is his son's step grandfather??? hopefully Lucas will come back and tie up some lose ends very soon. maybe do a couple of his famous nose punches! hee, hee, hee! can you think of anyone who needs it badly?

I'm still in shock that Will moved in with Kate and Stefano. He needs to stay as far away from Kate as possible. After all, look how she has ruined Lucas' life.

I still have a sneaking suspicion that Stefano is maybe Lucas's dad, why else help his grandson? This would be a great way to reintroduce Lucas, as a Dimera and really give Ej and the FBI guy a run for their money. Can you Lucas coming back in and royally giving the two of them heck for even being round his woman? Stupid tptb, stupid Gary Tomlin!

It sounds good, Kim, but I believe Gary Tomlin will have to leave in order for Lucas to come back. That's just the vibe that I'm getting.

I agree with you, BDF. I have thought that Lucas might be Stefano and Kate's son. I know she was supposed to be married to the jerk and having an affair at the time, but that is just Kate's story. and since when does Kate tell the truth? I think she just didn't really know who was the father. and back then they didn't have DNA testing. but I think that would be a great way to bring Lucas back on board. and Bryan said many times that he would love to be a DiMera. it would be great!

but another way would be if he was Kate and Andre's son. he would have so much reason to avenge his father's death by going after Stefano, EJ, Gayfe (lol! sorry! I had to!) and many others. but I prefer Stefano as Lucas' dad. that would be best.

I wouldn't even mind it if Tony was his dad. Just give him an amazing story! Stupid writers! You may though, just have given me a grand idea for a fan fic...

I could see Lucas being Tony's son. He is just not evil enough to be Stefano's or Andre's.

well he was never raised around them and was taught to hate them. It'd be nice having Lucas as a Dimera, he sure would rock the town of Salem with that news. It sucks he isn't on the show anymore.

Gosh I am so sick of EJ acting like he is so brave, and so great standing up to Stephano. Of course he just does that to look good in Sami's eyes. Obviously he is not that willing to stand up to Daddy Stephano or he would get the heck out of his house and go get his own, not go sponge off someone else like he did with Sami. It is so funny to see the difference between him & Lucas. Lucas never had to pretend to be anything he wasn't for Sami. Sami loved Lucas for who he was, not for who he pretended to be. How can anyone think this is a good, compelling love story? Ok, rant over.

what and now he defends Will to Daddy? I think I am going to be sick!

I didn't like Will pushing Sami to want Rafe. Will should be pushing for his dad, not Rafe. I'm not so sure I like this NuWill. I loved the other Will. he was so cute! but this one has a chip on his shoulder and is ordering his mom around like he is the parent. as I recall, Will didn't like Rafe and argued with him a lot. I remember defending Will for attacking Rafe once. so why is Will now all of a sudden all for his mom and Rafe? this makes no sense to me. Will should be pushing for Lucas and his mom. I'm sorry, but I don't like this NuWill. Sami shouldn't have to settle for Rafe just because Lucas is in Japan. and she sure as heck doesn't need YKW!! Sami needs to take a break. why does she need any man right now? she needs to get her head together first, THEN do man shopping. and Will needs to keep his yapping little trap shut.

Its bc these dumb writers want us to forget Lucas has kids with Sami so that they can shove Ejami down our throats. This is just another pathetic attempt to make us forget history and the rape and willingly accept Ejami. That will never happen with me. With any of us no doubt. Sorry, will get off my "soap" box now. Lol.

It's as if Lucas never existed; this is ridiculous. Actually, Will did make friends with Rafe at some point and they get along just fine now. I agree that Will should be pulling for Lucas, not Rafe. What are these writers smoking? At this point, Will should just go visit his father in China.

That's the way I feel too, unless and this is a big unless....this is a way for Lucas to come back to the show. I could see Lucas having to come back to rescue his son from Stefano's clutches and ball Sami out big time for allowing this stupidity to happen. If Lucas were around, Ej would be history.
