That next week, Luke was back in court to hear what the judge decided. "Mr. Duke, I have no doubt that you're a good father. However you never did contact Mr. And Mrs. Smith to let them even know they had a granddaughter. And you did manage to get your wife pregnant before being married. Indicating that you weren't as responsible as you claim. And I have decided for the time being, that Mr. And Mrs. Smith have custody of Kristen."
Christine and Bo looked over at Luke as he got the news. When they left the courtroom, Christine ran over to Luke. "Luke, I'm…I don't know what to say. She deserves to be with us."
"Whatever, you heard what the judge said. It's over now." Luke said walking past her.
"Christine, Luke isn't one to show his feelings as you know. Just give him time," Bo said.

Bo had walked into the Boar's Nest and saw Luke sitting alone at the bar. "Hey Christine here with you?"
Luke simply nodded.
"Well where is she?" Bo asked.
Luke shrugged his shoulders. "Don't know."
"Luke how could you come here with your wife and not know where she is. Here of all places!"
"Since when is it any of your business as to where my wife is?! What do you want her or something?"
"Luke that's not true and you know it!"
"Whatever. Remember this Bo, she's my wife. She fell in love with me, not you!"
"Luke how much have you had to drink? You're talking crazy!"
"Am I?" Luke said grabbing another bottle of beer and walking off.
Bo left not long after and went over to Luke's place. "Christine you're home?"
"Oh hey Bo. Yea why?"
"Luke told me you were at the Boar's Nest with him."
"I was, until….well I got a ride home from a friend."
"Until what?"
"It's nothing Bo really."
"Hey you know you can tell me anything right?"
"I know that Bo, but I really don't want to talk about it."
"You sure?"
"Yes I'm sure Bo will you quit already!" Christine said getting upset and Bo could tell she was about to cry.
"Chris?….."
She shook her head, "He was over there at the bar kissing some girl. It was as if I wasn't even there. He just kept it up and was making out with her. I'm his wife! He's not supposed to be doing that, and even with me right there too. I just walked out. I couldn't take it."
"You walked here?!" Bo said.
"Well yea I didn't have anyone to get a ride from."
"Listen to me, if that ever…EVER…happens again, you call me. You hear me?" Bo said.
"Bo look don't get yourself involved in this alright. He's your cousin, you shouldn't be taking sides."
"Cousin or not, I will say that he's being a jerk not realizing what a beautiful and sweet woman he has right here that he should be madly in love with…like I am," Bo said, saying the last part quietly.
