Love, war, and potentially bug-infested babies
Poor Luke.
Remember Noah and Jules from a few episodes back?

(Great names, guys.)
Red and Ella decide to pull them in for a little outside help.
Thanks to public pressure from radicals like Noah and Jules, it seems like tide is turning.
The only problem is this Valderrama guy isnt very good.
The documentary he turns in is less about the war and more about Wall Street corruption.
Eventually, Ben agrees to adjust his angle and focus on the actual problem: extremists.
First, he starts by trying to get Gareth to admit to funding the One Wayers and their extremism.
For him, thats the one thing he cant take.
So now, not only are they not romantically involved, but they cant even be friends.
That sound you hear is the sound of Laureth shippers everywhere crying.
Rather than being concerned, Ben is ecstatic: Its the perfect footage for his documentary.
Well, shes about a week away from giving birth.
Time sure does fly!
NEXT: Baby got bugs?
She takes Germaine to the hospital for a full work-up.
Her fears assuaged, Laurel feels better at least until she hears the doctors ringtone.
Seems like hes a fan of The Cars, too.
Rochelle tries to calm her down, telling her maybe its just a coincidence.
After all, the song is kind of having a resurgence right now, thanks to the bug people.
Still, Rochelle promises to check out the doctor and see what she can figure out.
As for Luke, Laurel confronts him and tells him to knock it off with the mistress.
Or, as we soon learn, mistresses…plural.
It seems Luke has been sleeping with a lot more people than just Scarlett.
Laurel, ever the rational one, is like, Dude, what the hell is wrong with you?
Luke, youre kind of a scumbag.
(Which he shouldve done the FIRST time news broke that he was sleeping with her…
But hey, better late than never.)
Scarlett is, understandably, pissed.
And the fact shes infected by bugs means we should see some pretty devastating revenge from her sometime soon.
Rochelle did all the tests herself, and she swears Grace is 100-percent healthy.
Laurel is satisfied, and it looks like Lukes family is finally as it should be.
So Laurel decides to take things into her own hands and put her editing skills to good use.
Even though the footage of Gareth wouldve helped her case, she deletes it.
Good girl, Laurel.
Laurel and Gareth are back on speaking terms.
Theres only one tiny problem: Germaine.
Never has a lullaby sounded so sinister.
Grossest moment:Nothing too gross this episode!
I guess the writers figured they should give us a break after the whole Red-eating-brains-off-a-wall scene from last week.
Give the people what they want: alien bugs eating peoples brains!
Also, more Gustav.
We need more Gustav.
