Sean's words made Luna and Bonnie furrow their brow tightly.
Sean had asked her if Luke was already dead instead of questioning why Luna would say Luke was 'probably dead'.

The favor was so huge that he kept Kate by his side for more than a year. If Luke did not care about the surgery, he could have chosen not to do that.
For Gwen's sake, he endured the humiliation and would rather she misunderstood him. He stooped down
