• Mon, Feb 25 - Aaron is suspicious of Alison's date. Since it's with Matt, Casey's friend from prison, he may be on to something - but Ali will likely be more wary of her ex than the new guy. "Alison and Aaron are both really adamant about not getting hurt again and slightly unreasonable, I think," says Marnie Schulenburg (Alison). "Instead of dealing with the pain - which I understand is hard - they're just cutting [each other] off."
• Luke goes on a road trip with Noah and Ameera this week that ends in a dangerous brawl. "Colonel Mayer sent Noah a letter saying that he needs to see him immediately. Noah doesn't want to go, but Ameera, who knows Colonel Mayer because he helped raise her in Iraq, says she'll go with him because she knows a different side of the colonel and has nothing but good feelings toward him," explains Van Hansis (Luke). But when the car breaks down, they're stuck in a remote, wooded area (taped on location in New Jersey) and a couple of drunken frat boys show up to make things worse. "They try to kidnap Ameera. Noah gets knocked out of commission pretty quick," laughs Hansis, "but Luke is the hero---he fights. It was the biggest fight I've done since I got there because Luke's kind of a pacifist." Things get pretty dicey when Lily and Holden arrive to aid their son. "There are crowbars involved and there's one part where Luke is trying to pull Ameera out of the car and it starts going in reverse," says Hansis. "It's pretty intense."
