Look at the cluster of characters at the farm for Thanksgiving! Is Janet not there (or behind Jack)?? And this must be after the Luke/Brian smooch. NUKE forever! I hope they get some sleep and head to old town early on Black Friday!!

That Luke and Brian are sitting next to each other. Does this mean that they haven't told anyone about the kiss at this point?

And I feel like there's a Dirty Dancing joke to be made in reference to the watermelon picture.

Maybe Noah and Luke have a truce for the day. But well, Noah is almost an adopted son for the Snyder family. Hope that Luke sobers up. By the way HOW OLD IS LUKE? I thought last year he was 17. He must be close to his formal adulthood. Only then the writters will allow them to get something else, not only shy kisses. Obviously that wasn't the case for other characters, but remember: "GAY is the new black" nowadays.

I think luke is supposed to be 19(?)

The "watermelon" is actually a "Hubbard Squash" the picking and carrying of which is some kind of Snyder Male Family Thanksgiving Tradition, so maybe the photo is supposed to be symbolic of Snyder Men Together?  If so, it's sweet that Noah is included.  I remember him walking around with the hacksaw last Thanksgiving looking clearly confused while Jack and Brad tried to kill each other outside.

Despite how completely over the top I thought GrandmaEmma was with the Ameera/Noah wedding, I still love that she's geniuinely sweet to Noah.

She's the only one who ever hugs him or kisses him.

I am so happy that the soaps are steppig it up and putting roll models that are out to help the younger group feel more comfortable with them selves.Thank's To As the world turns writers and producers for helping our community with the socail tollerance.Happy turkey day to all. And for all those that have been casted out by their families keep up the spirit their are a lot of good people out their .

Luke and Noah should both be 19 or 20.  They are in the first semester of their sophomore year of college.  Presuming they graduated at 17 or 18 as most people do.  And Allison made a point of saying that Luke couldn't be legally served when she found him in a bar last week.

However, this being a soap, now that Luke is officially out of school, they will probably SORAS both Luke and Noah and have them in their mid- to late-20's in the next couple of years.  After that, they will remain in their 30's for the next 20 to 30 years.
