@therealmariskahargitay @bobby1960 #SVU honors 9/11. Both Olivia benson and Ed Tucker carry the WTC on their chest as “fictitious” first responders.

Law & Order SVU: The breakup no one cried about

Last night’s Law & Order SVU was an interesting one and I’m going to skip the case of the week hubbub and go straight to the juicy part. 

For a few episodes now, we’ve seen our gal Benson struggle with life - the sadness and guilt of seeing someone in her squad get killed, the chaos of having to juggle the job and taking care of little Noah, and shooting a retired officer who became obsessed with a rape victim he saved previously (last week). But now we realize that it was more than that. She’s struggling with a life with Tucker. 

For the record, I like Olivia and I want her to be happy in a relationship. I just wish that relationship was with someone beautiful and charming and smart. Like Rafael Barba. (BARSON FOREVER!)

But I digress. Last night, we see Olivia avoiding Ed’s calls and being guarded and vague when he stalked her in the office. He assumes it’s because she killed a copy last week and that she’s stressed out about the kidnapping case, which struck a cord with her AND Rollins. She sort of admits that he’s right but, by the end of the show, she tells him that they’re in different stages in life. He’s ready to retire and live a more peaceful and fun life. She, in my opinion, is just getting started. She’s been a detective for a really long time and now as a Sergeant, she’s kicking ass with her detectives and helping people who really need it. She wants to continue helping people and, most likely, become a captain. She had a great mentor in Cragen and it’s time for her to mentor others. Her job as well as little Noah is all she has time for right now. 

Honestly, I just never warmed to the idea of those two together. My sister who is a diehard fan berates me for cheering for the breakup. But I’ve been a huge SVU fan for years and can tell you that I’ve seen ALLLLLLL of the episodes. Multiple times. For someone who will re-watch old episodes, it’s hard to see Tucker in a light other than the asshole from IAB or the dickhead who has tried to bust some of our favorite officers - Stabler, Amaro, Rollins - even Benson herself. I guess I just can’t flip that switch. 

But now that that relationship is donzo, I’m hoping Dick Wolf will do us a solid and have Olivia spend more time with Rafael. Some of my favorite scenes are when they are together - fighting and collaborating. Barba, being the gentleman he is, will not make a move on her. They’ll just start getting closer.....

Barson forever!!
