There are so many moments to remember, but I'll narrow it down...
My favorite moment is when they first got engaged back in 2003. Gus proposed out of the blue at their old house; it was pretty romantic. Harley thought he was going to break up with her, but he pulled out a ring and got down on one knee. The last thing he said was, "Will you marry me? And will you do me the very great honor of being my wife?" Of course she said 'yes' multiple times. She pulled him up, and they kissed and hugged. I cried happy tears. The proposal was the end of the episode - such a perfect ending. And such a happy time for them and for their fans.
Most of my favorite GusH moments, besides the proposal(s) and wedding, come from early in their relationship. Their first date when the lasagna exploded, their trip to PA where everything and anything went wrong from the car to the fire in the hotel room - we got some really great moments while they were in jail (a result of some really great moment in the car earlier!).
In addition to the beautiful and romantic wedding of Gus and Harley, I need to add the trip to Pennsylvania. It was marvelous from start (Harley called Gus) to finish (the jail). It had everything I love about this couple - it was funny, endearing, serious and extremely romantic, and that's when I knew with certainty that this couple would be great and would keep me glued to GL.
There are so many wonderful Gus and Harley moments over the years! Let's see - the road trip to Pennsylvania, dancing on serial killer highway, Gus giving Harley the magic eight ball, Harley helping Gus put aside his vendetta, the training ring, Gus writing the message in the bottle, the fabulous wedding with the most romantic vows and, of course, the love scene to end all love scenes (a/k/a the Wallbanger). Gus and Harley are wonderful and Beth Ehlers and Ricky Paull Goldin are fantastic actors.
There are so many moments about GusH to love, from first date including exploding lasagna to their proposals and wedding and many in between, but one of my alltime favorites took place at the Bauer Cabin. Gus was still hanging on to his Santos vandetta and thinking he could have both it and Harley, and Harley said she couldn't live that way. He brought her a little yellow flower and said to hang in there with him even if he wasn't smelling like a rose. It made me cry then and still does everytime I watch it.
There are so many favorite moments, but two that are memorable to me were the detox scenes at the cabin in 2006 and the trip to PA back in 2002. The detox scenes from last year still make me cry, and I loved watching Gus and Harley really come to terms with how they felt about each other while on the trip to PA.
Do you have time to read a tome? Too many wonderful Harley and Gus moments but one of my favorites is the very first kiss at Company on Valentines day in 2002; the "playing with fire" scenes when Gus persuades Harley to work with him; the Bauer cabin scenes; the trip to PA; the first date; their first major break-up and reunion; the "nothing can touch this" scene in the elevator just before the verdict at Harley's trial; last year when Harley found Gus again and then later when Gus detoxed at the cabin; last year's Valentines day fantasy scenes, etc. I could go on and on but just about every moment with GusH is special. Fans of this couple are the luckiest ones around!
There are so many favorite Gush momemts and so many little jewels that continue with this chemistry charged couple. But one of my all time favorites was when Harley had just given birth to Jude outside of Comany. She was leaving and Gus whispered to himself, "Just turn around if you care about me". (paraphrasing here) And she looked at him out of the corner of eye. Magic!
I have loved Gus and Harley from the very beginning. It's extremely difficult to pick just one moment from their relationship to say was a favorite. They are always excellent together. However, I loved seeing them interact with baby Sydney, along with their boys. I loved seeing the 5 or them make a family. This is the kind of relationships that made me love daytime since childhood and something GL is sorely missing.
Wow, this is a chore, narrowing down my favorite moments with Gus and Harley into something short and sweet.
I suppose that my favorite moment(s) with this amazing couple was during the week centered around Harley getting shot. The love that these two share is palpable, almost a living and breathing thing. Gus' devastation at the thought of losing Harley and Harley's determination to fight her way back to Gus were absolutely heartwrenching and yet beautiful to watch!
The word "chemistry" is oftem overused when describing soap couples, but in my opinion, if you really want to know what "chemistry" is, just take one look at Ricky Paull Goldin and Beth Ehlers when they are together, on-screen or off-screen, these two simply personify the word. In other words, if you look up the word "chemistry" in the dictionary, you should see a picture of Ricky Paull Goldin and Beth Ehlers as Gus and Harley!
I must say that every time that Gus and Harley were on the screen were my favorite moments. But if I had to narrow it down I must say that the detox scenes showed the true love and devotion that Harley had foe Gus. She was determined to stand by him no matter how hard or impossible things seemed. Also, after the motorcycle accident that left Gus barely hanging on and he had those goodbye scenes with Natalia and then with Harley. When he was talking to Natalia you could see he always cared for her, but with Harley you knew it was a love that would stand the test of time and he held on just long enough to tell her she would always be the love of his life and he was hers. Oh how I cried. I cried as if I were losing my own loved one. I guess in a way I was. I believe they were a super couple destined to go down in true love history.
