Right? Something else has to be in store because if not what “good” could locking him in there…. Aaaaaaand my brain just reminded me that she told Luke HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND. He could end up locked in there for over 48 hours. And I don’t think we know if they have snacks, water, or a bathroom that he can get too. Like HOW stuck is he? In the building as a whole or just in a storage room??? I can’t remember what room he was in
Exactly!!! He could definitely be there for 50+ hours (since it's 10:03 PM when his phone dies).
From what I remember from the previous chapters, there's no food or water, and the bathrooms were in the hallway. Though, I can't imagine Andrew not looking for him at the workshop after 24 hours...?
It would make more sense if something happened at the workshop before anyone could figure out Luke was still there (imho)
Andrew could be the one targeted... Derrick could just release the photos of them kissing in the bathroom... and Andrew would then have to deal with the public ostracization/fallout all alone (which as we all know, he's already traumatized by such events, and is why he hides his identity)
Actually... Vegas money on my last possibility...
I bet Derrick circulates the photos of them kissing in the bathroom... and Andrew has a breakdown trying to deal with the backlash and the revealing of his identity all alone... without his only support... Luke.
Locking Luke inside the workshop is definitely not all that's going to happen...
So... what are we thinking? Someone hired by Derrick or Derrick himself will set a fire in/around the workshop? Does Derrick bring like 10 thugs to beat up Luke (or worse!! Not r*pe please, author). Since someone up to no good has possession of the key, Luke is trapped there until whatever trouble/violence finds him.
And Andrew doesn't have any of Luke's friends' phone numbers to ask around about his whereabouts... which sets him up for possibly saving Luke if he decides to check the workshop.
