"Eric's a slimeball. Not so much for the fact that he cheated on his wife but that he was obviously sleeping with both women at the same time, otherwise April wouldn't be pregnant. He cheated on both women. That's a slimeball.

He falls in love with Mary and that's fine, but if he's a good guy he goes to his wife and says it's over before hopping into the sack.

He played them both and if Mary had a backbone when she found out April was pregnant she'd have slugged him."

Slime? Yes, however, that's life and makes for a good "wrench into the mix," and regardless whether he's a cheater or not, it had no bearing on the death of April. April "may" have been pregnant long before Eric began his affair.

You can't hate Eric because Eric is "everyman" while Jake is who "everyman" wants to be. The backlash over Eric leaving April was laughable... for whatever problems they may have had, and God knows sometimes it IS t he woman who is at fault... she was the one who had filed for divorce and gone far enough to actually have the papers drawn up. Maybe she had cheated on him first? Maybe the baby wasn't even his? I guess as a guy who made the mistake of marrying "the wrong woman" and ended up leaving after over a decade of trying to "make it work" and being labeled "that bastard" because she would never stand up and admit to the families that half of our fights were started by her... argh... why not hate April for breaking up the marriage and being glad that she's dead and Eric has a good woman to love?

He was very upset. When he learned about April, he wouldn't speak to Mary. During the surgury, he stayed by Aprils' side the whole time. Expect for when Kenchy left the room claiming that it was madness to carry on operating. Then he went out after him and was about to drag him back in to try and save Aprils life. But when they finished and April was laying in the hospital bed, Eric sat there and held her hand. April opened her eyes and told Eric to hold her hand. He replied, "I'm right here. I'm right next to you.". Then April replied saying that she liked the name Tracey. Eric agreed Tracey was a beautiful name. She closed her eyes and stopped breathing. Gail walked into the room and checked her pulse. Eric sat there and held Aprils hand, crying. Gail came over behind Eric and started crying also. Johnston came into the room and stood there looking down at April. Lastly, Jake walked into the room and sat down oppisite of them. He reached over and held Erics hand Comforting. And that was it. April was dead.

There was talk around town, there were a few comments at the bar about "secrets in a small town". I think the people who knew were talking about it, just not to April or the rest of the Greens. Gail knew that her sons marriage was suffering from something and told April to fight for it, that's when April approached Eric about walking home together and talking. Also at the end of the Thanksgiving episode Johnston askes Jake if he knew about Eric and Mary and then says to never mind. People sometimes act as if they really want to know, but it's all for show, the truth would hurt too much so they turn a blind eye.

"Why did April file for a divorce before the bombs? Was she too having an affair?
"

I guess it's because of news about being pregnant (she mentioned it).
I found April the prettiest girl in town. And maybe unhappiest :( Eric finally found someone he likes (probably he married April because she was good pair - no love), but what's gonna be with April? I doubt April has (or had) affair, I think she's absolutely positive.
