On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

Compassionately intolerant

"oh, lord, not another hidden molestation story"

Yep. Me too.

I absolutely loved the resolution where Dani says, "No. He wasn't a fighter, he was an abuser. Your mom, she's the fighter."

I did not get the smack on the shoulder thing though. As a therapist, I might have had to talk that one out...not laugh it off.

Nico is my woobie. If it weren't for the shadowyness, I'd like him and Dani together.

Matt showed himself to be pretty shallow, if his disappointed puppy dog look at the end is to be interpreted as jealousy over Dr. Cookbook.

His woman dumped him 5 minutes ago! Shouldn't he pine for a day or so?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

What's wrong with a shoulder punch?

Still haven't seen last night's ep, but had to say a big YES to this. Nico & Dani have such great chemistry, they'd be so much more interesting than most of the couples on the show.

Dani so couldn't handle Nico.

Trust my rage

Personally, I see the show hinting towards Nico/Dani but maybe that is just my issues.

Dani and Matthew! I'm very simple and I like his huge puppydogness.

I think he might be good for her in the places where I feel like she lacks maturity.

Matthew! I'm very simple and I like his huge puppydogness.

Don't need Dani for this. Though all the sexy fantasy dream sequences she had when they first said they couldn't see each other...I was grateful to her for those.

I like Matthew and Dani's chemistry.. I like Nico's chemistry period.

I resent the idea that Rizzoli is some sort of fashion-blind tomboy. Those brows are plucked to within a hair of their lives, and she is wearing makeup I don't know how to put on my self.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

She dresses well too. You're right, they're completely inconsistent with who she is supposed to be and how she actually looks.
