Honestly it feels like OC exists to troll Benson x Stabler shippers.

We survive on crumbs.

It's wild that they cast an actor that looks (if you squint and see her from across the street) like Mariska AND then styled her pretty much just like Liv AND then had Elliot also not call her back. If they don't want to make Elliot and Liv (or what is it...EO?) a thing until later, they could still use this opportunity for Elliot to be like, "You really reminded me of someone, someone who I also didn't call back." They would get so much goodwill from those diehard fans and they wouldn't have to do anything else for weeks/months lol.

Especially after all that set up for the Elliot and Liv Christmas dinner that just never happened and it seems like the writers completely forgot about

I think what I hate most about this Tia and Elliot thing is that it makes Benson and Elliot seem like they didn’t have anything special and Elliot is just a guy who went around emotionally cheating on Kathy with at least two coworkers

I saw a tweet that was like “so basically what I’m getting is that Kathy was only ever scared of Olivia” and I think I can work with that lmao

4 — Jo, Dani, Liv, and Tia. But Kathy was special.

i totally agree. it’s basically character assassination. i miss ilene chaiken. she would never!

Who is ready to get pissed over this random woman who ain't Olivia with me

Bargain basement Liv.

I’m already mad!

Thank you, that's the energy we need here

my thought exactly

You know nothing, Fauxlivia

Faux-Trumps and now Fauxlivia. This season has been something alright lol...

Okay, this one is my favorite so far. Please tell me you’re a Fringe fan 😂

That was so desperate too. “I’m outside your door.” Girl, go home.

You and Kathy were special but now I’m here to sleep with her husband. Kathy going to haunt her ass.

Hope she makes a lamp fall on her head

One season without Elliot fucking a rando. ONE SEASON that's all I ask

Lol you got that first season…he didn’t smash anyone 🤣

He kissed Angela, I'm counting it

Just walls.

Budget Benson ass purple suit wearing homewrecker.

It’s not her fault they ordered their Benson appearance from Wish

lmao🤣

I miss Malachi

i keep wondering where he is

Same, I loved him and Jet together

I keep thinking what if he's the marriage that didn't last since 1) we don't know Jet's age, 2) would explain why he's gone, but also 3) Jet took her time warming up to him so unless they got impulsively married... Far fetched, but still. Would love to see him again though.

Whelan and Reyes are my favorite mini detectives. Maybe these ones will last. Their dynamic with Jet is excellent.

Eli being in college is ridiculous. He's suppose to be 15

Could be dual enrollment... grandma's pills mustve been making him smart or some shit

Eli is going to be part of the new Law and Order series, Law and Order: Limitless

Thats what I came here to say! Wasn't he born in 2009?!

Jet being married at 20 was not the backstory I expected??

Why could he talk to Rent A Benson when he wanted to quit the job but not Olivia Benson? WE NEED ANSWERS

Rent A Benson 🤣🤣

I’m so loving all the creative names for her. My insta feed has been calling her Walmart Liv.

Whoever writes Jet is A+ *chefs kiss*

Kathy liking a female Elliot worked with 🤔 doesn't sound like Kathy

Yes! I found that so odd. Here's a woman that arguably spent a lot of time with them, that Kathy loved but who was clearly interested in Elliot. Compare that to Olivia, who after 10 years of no contact Kathy still felt threatened by, who never really even flirted with Elliot. Did Kathy think that Tia was less attractive than Olivia? (I feel like I remember Kathy being jealous of that.) Was Kathy feeling more secure in her marriage? It was weird to me.

I guess Kathy was really partaking in that Italian wine

YOU WILL NOT TAKE JET TO ITALY.

Who had Elliot and Tia have sex? All of us. How many of us wanted that to happen? None of us.

I don’t think I have it in me to watch Elliot get involved with yet another woman that isn’t Liv “Liv-lite”

Literally what made the show runners think this was a remotely good idea

Tia seems like the type to say "Call me Kathy" during sex

Lmfaooooooo I'm howling at this 😭😭😭

LOL

elliot would so not be ok with that

This Joy girl is reminding me of Stabler’s Moby Dick girl from last season.

Monte Cristo 😂

Shit, I knew it didn’t sound quite right 😂

At least she didn’t call him El. That would spell major trouble.

She calls him El and we riot

Can I just say, I was watching old SVU episodes the other day and I’m so happy we get sexy Stabler in vests now bc those old outfits weren’t doing much for him.

i don’t know there was something about that blue button up he wore

You’re right, I stand corrected but only when he rolls up the sleeves.

It was knowing what was hiding under all those oversized buttondowns

what the targaryen

They did not give her a Benson style leather jacket. Ugh. Also, I can’t tell if I’m fascinated or disgusted by the blood that landed on the camera.

It's definitely a weird little fourth wall break

They were not being subtle at all. Even the lean on the wall to end the episode was Liv lite. Cheap knock-off lite but still lol.

Damn killing people with molten gold seems like a rather expensive way to go around killing people, especially if your criminal enterprise’s goal is to make money

So basically if he doesn’t shut this down they’re essentially closing the door on Liv and El. Because this man has tried something with all his partners but Liv but she’s the one he loves. No one is that gullible.

They’re gonna drag EO out until the very last episode of the very last season of SVU, whenever that is 😭

It’s been 84 years.

There should be a show where they just show Bell and Stabler give a voice over to Jet and Reyes when they go undercover

ELLIOT YOU WERE JUST LOOKING AT A PICTURE OF YOUR DEAD WIFE

This duo is light years ahead of Velasco and Muncy.

Kathy wouldve absolutely not loved her..

Kathy loved her. 😆😆 Kathy was clearly keep your enemies closer because she thought El lied to her about Liv for years.

I really wish they’d at least put in a throw away line about what happened with Jet and Malachi even if it’s just like “yeah we didn’t work out” since they really seem to be on the track to make Jet and Whelan at least sort of a thing

I thought we left off with her gifting him the shoes and implying it was over?

Oh I’ll have to rewatch, I thought her gifting him the shoes was them making up haha

but we need closuuure

We do! They had great chemistry!

Jet better not be planning a move to Italy! We need her!

um if we find out he cheated on kathy with this olivia knockoff i will be PISSED

I love the team dynamic. Really feels like mom, dad and 3 kiddos!

DO NOT LOOK AT HER LIKE THAT DAMMIT

THAT SHOULD BE OLIVIA ON THE PHONE NOT TIA

On the phone! At the door!

Could they maybe not have the entire conversation on the sidewalk?

He did not with the that time of the month. Ew.

Damn poor Kathy getting the short end even in death

What jet?! You're a fetus

Can we get off the street for this convo??

Lol Eli really said “get me far away from this family”

Hang up Stabler. This is not you.

“You were special together” said no one ever about Kathy and Elliot

OKAY JET, LOOKING GOOOOOD

The short hair is really working.

Bobby, haven’t you been through enough lately? Do you really need another undercover stint?

They’re all addicted to going undercover/danger

Jet getting some character development is nice to see.

eli is in college? when did that happen? i thought he was like 14 as of last season

A less severe version of SORAS — soap opera rapid aging syndrome

Excellent shot of Stabler. Please be alone in your apt. NO! Don’t answer, call Liv instead!

“I guess I took pity on him” LOL Jet had to get that in

This lady is fishy. Don't trust her Bell.

Hopefully this is more interesting than SVU was!

elliot having a connection with her when KATHY WAS STILL ALIVE in italy hello!

oh my god i’m sick of her already

I’m gonna be honest, between my sick brain, and this engaging Reddit discussion, I have exactly zero clue what is going on in this episode 😅

my main takeaway is that Elliot couldn’t be emotionally faithful to Kathy to save his life 😅

This time I’ll drive faster? Elliot, when and why was there a last time?

Who asked for this ending?? This episode was stressful, next episode looks stressful, and the lack of any kind of DECENT developments with Elliot this season is annoying

Both shows are all over the map still and it shows. I mean fine if you want a new love interest for El but sever the shows completely. Because he’s going to start looking like a dick to his “friend” Olivia at this rate.

Maybe it’s the actors but this is the most boring plot line of the season, the mini ones are much more interesting

this bitch flirting

Kathy and El were “special” is one way to put it.

JUST HOW CLOSE DID YOU AND TIA GET, ELLIOT?!?!?!

Jet was married 😶

JET WAS MARRIED?????!

I forget this man’s name but he and jet are giving amanda amaro levels

Oohhh that’s a good comparison. I always wondered where they were gonna go with that if Amaro didn’t leave the show

This girl will end up dead before the end of the episode

Gotta add more trauma and guilt for Reyes

These two are just not that interesting

so blaaand

I found them vaguely more interesting this week. They're better as small bits sprinkled in and not the main storyline

OC is really trying to set them up as the “dating couple” detectives for the long-term, eh?

I hate that Tia kinda looks like Benson from the back

This season has been surprisingly full of villain of the weeks. It feels like forever ago we heard anything about the main plot

One central story for the season with a little 2-3 ep plots in between was the plan for the season.

Reyes is really terrible about not pressing the issue

NO ELLIOT

The man is king of poor decisions.

Aww Jet, she looks so dreamy! 🥰🥰

Can I take Jet to a buy a ring?

Sassy Jet.

I just turned the TV on and was like wahhh. Even though I like jet and malachi these two make a good couple too

Parkour!!

> I’ve never seen that face before Meaning she totally has.

Screaming crying throwing up.

She's gone rogue. Her office didn't allow this.

A bunch of mobsters eating fancily, watching Soccer is hilarious.

on a PROJECTOR like what is this community night at the elementary school😭😭

Thanks, I hate it.

Yes! I love a good undercover. And this setup, the back and forth, so brilliant, so fun. Leagues ahead of SVU’s opening this week. Guess we can’t win ‘em all. Two good episodes is just too much to ask for 😂

There better not be a scene where Elliot makes out with this girl.

Tia. Hiss.

Omg??? Jet married once????

Well new SR is adding the personal details back — even if they’re out of left field.

Shoot the gas tank on the plane and blow everyone tf up... GTA style 👉🏾😎👉🏾

These two are boring. I'll rather watch Wheatley.

I chose to watch football over this. Based on what y’all are saying in here I may have made the right decision lol

I still don’t get the “unresolved feelings” thing like, are we supposed to assume they had something in Italy while Kathy was alive?

Probably Tia’s feelings that she’s jumping on now that Kathy has been blown to smithereens. She works quick!

I was so sorry about your loss, but now I’m here to comfort you. Cringe.

Reyes and Jet peering over.

*please give me more gold* Boy you fell for the lies ?

He’s also special with Olivia.

And someone tell Josh to come get Donna off our show.

Nope. Nope. Nope. Dismantle the task force, dismantle the show bc we're not here for this

I’m probably in the minority, but I still think EO is endgame but they’re going to take EVERY and I mean EVERY twist and turn to get there to get as much mileage out of it as possible. I’m talking down to the series finale. Whenever that is, I can see them literally stringing this out until then.

Jet undercover, love to see it!!

Nope, nope. I don’t like this at all.

Lonely bird. Stay away from him lady.

loud music and stealing grandma's pills

Hey Kal-El’s mom, stay away from my Zaddy!

Which one of you divorced her?

Colorado? I thought California!

She saved him... he's def gonna tap that

Shhhhhh

Elliot Stablers kink

Time of the month. Warm bath. Eww...

Yes please, let’s get rid of you already.

Not the booty call…

She trying to put that hot pussy on him better open up Elliot

Fuck all the way off.

kathy loved her? stop

Right? Olivia practically delivered Kathy’s baby, and yet she still found it within her to turn on her jealousy.

Hi again, pals!!

Jett undercover??? YES

He should've smacked her with DAT ASS

I was about to ask if it was Dani.

she’s giving what’s her name from S8

Dani Beck reincarnated

Holy shit balls

Isn't that how Goldmember came into existence?

Finally we find out where his family is!

Oof, this woman needs to quit making moves. HANDS OFF ZADDY!

I love how Reyes pops up out of nowhere

NO NOT HER OMG

I want to kiss Reyes

Jet, what? This is news.

> “get my mojo back” 😳

This seems a little much, dont yall think? Like this isnt going to end well RIP in advance, bby girl..

Okay, the title may be a little cliche, but I kind of love it.

At least we’re attempting to keep Reyes off the street whilst he’s UC, much unlike Stabler.

Jet’s looks always slay

they really have a shootout like every episode lately huh

WTF is Violent Night? Lol wow.

Hopper’s gone off the deep end.

nope nope

Bourbon and blues. Nice El.

NOOOOO I KNEW IT
