For hardcoreGilmorefans, the arrival of April, Lukes out-of-the-blue 12-year-old daughter, was a highly controversial story.
Many fans didnt immediately love the character of April.
But for actor Scott Patterson, Aprils arrival was an opportunity to see another side of Luke.

As much as Jess brought out Lukes parental instincts, the situation with April took things to another level.
I think he was more out of his depth with April, Patterson tells EW.
He was back on his heels and more awkward with her.
It made him far more vulnerable than we had seen him before.
I really, really enjoyed it.
