THE SCREAM I LET OUT WITHOUT REALISING IT WHEN I SAW NICK- AHH I MISSED HIMMM!! And he said Zara is fifteen now, that's insane 😭

AND MY BOY CRAGEN!!! I was tearing up when he said he was so proud of Olivia 😭😭. Guess we know who the favourite child is, lol.

It was so cool seeing Baby Benson from the pilot with her mom and that season 1 scene with Stabler 🥹!!!!!!

It was interesting that they tied this episode to the one from season 6 where that girl killed her alcoholic mother and then Benson confided in Casey about her mom and the engagement, etc, (by the way I was BEYOND EXCITED to see some form of my girl Novak onscreen for the first time since season 13 🥰) and even back then, I was baffled because i recall thinking "oh, so Olivia was groomed and I don't think she even realizes it".

Therefore, when the dude showed up in this episode- I was SOOOO confused as to why Liv was so welcoming of him- i thought she would've realized by now. But she hadn't. So i just kept screaming to myself "he groomed her!" because they WEREN'T addressing the fact that Liv was only 16 and he was an adult back in the day!!!

And so of course, i was NOT shocked at all when they pulled that big "twist" of the episode that the dude is actually a predator, because... DUH?!

And then Amanda was referencing that intern lady and said the phrase "he spent the summer grooming her" and I was like... "LIV, PLEASE CONNECT THE DOTS, BABE!! HE DID THE SAME TO YOUUUUU"

Liv eventually coming to that realisation was heartbreaking. I'm glad she finally did though, and that Trevor and Nick were there to plant the idea in her head.
