There are a few very specific hills I will die on and Declan Murphy’s character not living up to it’s full potential is one of them.

****SPOILER ALERT ****

The way my fucking jaw dropped to find out Rollins' baby is Declan's

My hottest SVU take is that Declan should’ve stayed for several seasons and not keeping him to fully build out his character and arc with Amanda was a bad decision.

23x10 - Deeper Meaning in Rollins' Words to Murphy

Her life's finally working out after all the hardships she's been through (her traumatic childhood, high school bullying, her rape & treatment at APD, gambling issues, bad relationships, family issues, her career)

Jesse's having a happy childhood. Both of her daughters are, better than hers

Amanda's finally happy with her life. She's in therapy and finally conquered her demons. She's at a good place with her career. Things are getting better with her family. She finally accepted her feelings to be in a healthy stable loving relationship with Carisi. The two are raising her daughters together. She doesn't feel alone anymore now that she has them and her close friends supporting her.

I still can't help but wonder how the hell Murphy found out Rollins was pregnant? Cause I really doubt the entire NYPD would gossip about one detective out of a hundred being pregnant. Especially to a UC in another country.

But one close to him within the department could have perhaps tipped him off about it. Some stranger we don't know about

The NYPD has a massive gossip train, from what I've read (and what they've said on the show). Especially with Amanda being an unmarried woman having a baby (because of sexism), people definitely talked about her and speculated about who the father was, because that's the nature of sexist male police officers.

Murphy's reaction and confronting Amanda outside the station made him just reinforce that gossip train, too. Disappointing all around--Amanda deserved so much better.

Still would have loved to see a scene Rollins asked Khaldun when and where Murphy told him that secret cause he shouldn’t be telling people that without talking about it first with her. And then she confronts Murphy about it. (I know there’s a fic about that)

Also pretty sure Murphy hasn’t even met Jesse. He didn’t even ask about her when he came back, didn’t even tell Rollins that he even came back. He was more curious if she was single
