Does anyone know any details about this storyline, and does anyone have any ideas about what the outcome will be? Will the reveal be part of the "explosive summer" we've been promised and could it lead to a big stunt?

I'm all for this storyline going on for longer, it doesn't feel like it's been dragged out and there's been a lot of twists along the way. I'm glad KO has managed to keep us on our toes with this storyline and not make it tiring.

The reveal is still 'a while away' as far as I know..

Maybe the reveal will be part of the big secret summer story. Part of me was wondering though if Lawrence would find about the affair and blackmail Robert into sleeping with him.

That would RUIN Lawrence IMO. It would change the character from a sophisticated, well meaning gentleman, into nothing but a twisted, perverted old man!

I think Lawrence initially fancied Robert, but soon saw what an ugly person he was, and changed his opinion on him. If he found out about the affair I think he would totally use it to get what he always wanted - Robert out of his daughters life!

Yeah it would take the character in a different direction but why make him gay/bi sexual in the first place and then have Robert call him out on liking him. All of that seems to have been forgotten but my idea would bring all that back into play.

I don't mind your idea on bringing back Lawrence's sexuality but I would rather see it play out more like:

Lawrence finds out about the affair, confronts Robert and smugly threatens to tell Chrissie. In his desperation to silence Lawrence, Robert tempts him to keep quiet by telling Lawrence he will sleep with him. Lawrence could then reject him, in the same disgusting way in which Robert did to him in the office a few months ago OR he could agree and then get Chrissie to walk in on them in a compromising position, to show her EXACTLY what a vlle human being her hubby is!

I really like the idea of Chrissy walking in on Robert and Lawrence,

If we get to see Robert's 'terror' face again I'm all for it

After watching Chrissie last night I would think Robert will be terrified that she could find out and what she would do. Eagely awaiting it all going off. Bring it on!

I don't think Lawrence is a 'gentle'man at all. He's been seriously nasty at times and we've now seen his daughter behave like papa White too!

Lawrence was clearly attracted to Robert and Robert (despite what he said) may at the time have 'enjoyed' the attention from an older man (like a father figure) but the other staff were laughing at Lawrence (and again despite what Robert said) maybe at Robert himself; so Robert changed his attention/affection to Chrissie. If Robert gave him the come on I think he would still be keen! But if he found out the affair (especially as the other lover is a man) I agree with you that he would use it to get rid of Robert not sleep with him. Although I think that would be one hell of a twist/shock if he did blackmail him

ewww, gross, no, no, no, I don't want to see that. The idea of Lawrence with his son in law? I couldn't see either of them going there. Poor Chrissie. I don't think anyone could get over seeing one of your parents in bed with your spouse

It was confirmed a little while ago that his "gay past" (a quote, not my own words) will be focused again. I don't think it has been forgotten about as Lawrence has mentioned his prison stint a few times when it looked like Lachlan would be jailed as well. It's just about the timing of when to bring it back up. If everything was all brought up at once, it would be overkill.

I think so, too. It's clearly one of Kate Oates' signature storylines so I'm sure she wants to give it a big finish. It's been going on for a long time too, if it was just a one line "I've been sleeping with Aaron" it would be quite disappointing!

Yeah Lawrence would be furious at Robert for betraying and hurting his daughter if anything.

I hope it goes on for a long time, even forgotten about and left running in the background then revisited

BiB; I think that would be good. Robert would say just that one line and Chrissie would explode! Sometimes less is more.

I can't see them dragging it out for much longer because the 'break ups and make ups' will really start getting repetitive. But if Robert survives the summer I think they'll split them up and then we'll have a 'will they get together?' s/l which will probably carry on till Christmas. Robert's bisexuality means they could possible pair him up with Finn, Carly, or perhaps Leyla during the mean time. Aaron will have to make do with Lawrence

I hope they remain a couple after the reveal, but i don't think they will. Robert doesn't want the world to view him as gay or bisexual. He wants to lead the "normal" life of having a wife and family. He comes across to me as afraid of what others think and will look at him differently. He wants to simply be seen as a man. Not a gay or bisexual man. Because sadly sexuality can become defining to a person which isn't right.

A public lynching to punish their adultery.

Good post. Something I can personally identify with. Though (I like to think) I'm not quite as manipulative and dark as Robert!

I am enjoying this story very much though and to echo the opinions of others it doesn't feel at all dragged out. Would be happy if it ran on for quite a while yet!
