My Girlfriend's Back

[cabenson]

I liked "Ghost" quite a bit even if I don't think it measured up to "Loss".

-I like the way the title of the ep, "Ghost" not only refers to the killer's nickname, but also the return of eyewitnesses the killer thought he had killed, Alex and Antonio.

-Can I say that the kid playing Antonio Montoya was fucking adorable? I mean "pinch-those-little-cheeks" adorable.

-I liked that a few things were cleared up:
1. Cragen did NOT know that Alex was alive which leads me to believe that Munch and Fin did not know either.

2. Alex said she woke up in the hospital after the shooting and was told, that for all intents and purposes, she was dead. It made me believe that the DEA made the decision to put her in WPP and she really had no choice in the matter.

3. Alex has not become weak in her time away. She has fears, which seem to be reasonable, but she is still her feisty, sarcastic, sexy self. I love her so.

-Where was Warner? And why weren’t Fin and Munch in the last half of the ep? Don’t they deserve to see Alex too?

-Liv and her necklaces. Liv has been wearing “The Necklace” since “Loss” even though it has been hidden be her newest piece. I wish Alex had been wearing hers, but kudos to the continuity wizards as she wasn’t wearing it when she was shot.

-Hotel Room of Hoyay. Anyone else notice just a single bed? I guess we can say that Alex and Olivia have “slept” together and it can now be seen as canon. And we have a smidgeon of Alex in this ep and we get more personal info on her than in three years? Que le fuque?

-Poor Mama Cabot. Hmmm…they didn’t say how she died, did they? Plot bunnies going mad…pay no attention.

-I like the fact that they left Velez alive. And the Irish Hitman too. This means that the case against Velez can continue which means we may see Alex again. Especially if SM gets smart and dumps Asshat’s ass and needs a job( she would be alimony check #3.)

-I wonder if there will be some “Alex” mentions now that everyone knows she is alive.

-I wish Petrovsky had been the presiding judge. It just would have made more sense (considering their love/hate mentor relationship) and I would have loved to have seen Lena’s face when Alex strutted into that courtroom. I bet Petrovsky would have threatened Alex with comtempt for baiting the defendant.

-Poor Casey. Now that she knows Alex is alive, she also knows why Liv keeps rebuffing her advances. Now Casey can move on to Elliot and destroy the O/E fan base.

And my final comment: I liked the ending. It made this ep seem like a continuation of “Loss” and not a one-shot. I see this as part of an “Alex vs. Velez” arc and I think she’ll be back. I hope she’ll be back.

2. Hate to burst that bubble, but no one is ever put in WPP against their will. It is offered and can be rejected. The only thing the govt can compel a witness to do is to show up at court on a specific day to testify. Of course, Alex wasn't a witness to anything, so in the SVUniverse, your conclusion could stand.

I bet Petrovsky would have threatened Alex with comtempt for baiting the defendant.
Hahaha! I wanted to see the ol' gal, too.

Poor Casey. Now that she knows Alex is alive, she also knows why Liv keeps rebuffing her advances. Now Casey can move on to Elliot and destroy the O/E fan base.

Go, Casey! You schlumpy, fashion-challenged, glowing freak, you! Elliot totally thinks you're hot. I heard him say so at the gym. But he's shy. You should make the first move. Go on, now. Go get 'im!

See, that's what I thought. But her testimony made it sound as if she had been declared dead while she was still unconscious. I thought WTF? and then I realized that even Hammond isn't resistant to the blonde hair and blue eyes. I think Mr. Hairy Face kidnapped her for his own sordid purposes. I would have.

[aqua-blurr.livejournal.com]

Dude! The plot thickens:

Hammond is really.... an insurance adjuster! He had Alex declared legally dead, collected the insurance and is now sexing her in Wisconsin. I would NOT want to be him when Olivia figures this out.

Hotel Room of Hoyay. Anyone else notice just a single bed?
and the damn writers again playing with our minds... the only time the bed is visible is behind Liv when she is putting her overnight bag down.

[cabenson.livejournal.com]

Bastards. And the turtlenecks to cover the hickeys no less?

[mikee-pm.livejournal.com]

there. isn't. any. hoyay.

[theholyinnocent.livejournal.com]

I didn't notice the lone bed...whee! Good catch.

Where was Warner?

Too much hotness in one episode.

And why weren’t Fin and Munch in the last half of the ep? Don’t they deserve to see Alex too?

Not when it could cut into precious HoYay time!

she would be alimony check #3

Shit, you're kidding! I knew Asshat has been married before, but...SM will be his third wife??

Poor Casey. Now that she knows Alex is alive, she also knows why Liv keeps rebuffing her advances. Now Casey can move on to Elliot and destroy the O/E fan base.

Mwwhahaha. Suddenly, I am a C/E shipper....

[ultraviolet730.livejournal.com]

Mwwhahaha. Suddenly, I am a C/E shipper....

You people are mean. Why must you make me cry? Like Olivia, I'm not a pretty crier. Cryer? I don't cry prettily, damn it.

As revenge, I will now start an Olivia/BoyDetective yahoo group, dedicated to Olivia and Miguel "I'm taking up time that should have been spent on Alex" Sandoval. Or maybe they can bring Cassidy back, and E/O can each be paired with a dumb, dorky sidekick?

[theholyinnocent.livejournal.com]

There there, dear! Have some champagne. Elliot's not that desperate, but we are. We have to keep Casey away from our TV girlfriends, and you know El will do anything for his partner...

As revenge, I will now start an Olivia/BoyDetective yahoo group, dedicated to Olivia and Miguel "I'm taking up time that should have been spent on Alex" Sandoval.

Ha! How about "Olivia, Boy Detective"? Olivia cracks cases in drag!

Was Sandoval really the last name of the CuteBoyDetective? As in Livia Sandoval, the dead undercover agent who caused all this mess in the first place? Were they supposed to be related, or do tptb need to whip out that "Hispanic Last Names" dictionary again?

Or maybe they can bring Cassidy back, and E/O can each be paired with a dumb, dorky sidekick?

Better yet, just pair off Casey with Cassidy and give 'em their own series. L&O: Dumb and Dumber.

That's my specialty.

Shit, you're kidding! I knew Asshat has been married before, but...SM will be his third wife??
Worse. She is his third wife. They did the deed on Sunday.

Mwwhahaha. Suddenly, I am a C/E shipper....
And so my plot create an all O/A fandome is well on it's way to success.

[maroukian.livejournal.com]

Worse. She is his third wife. They did the deed on Sunday.
i give them 18 months tops

[mikee-pm.livejournal.com]

why only 18 months?

[theholyinnocent.livejournal.com]

They did the deed on Sunday.

AIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE. Must. Drink. Vodka. NOW.

[cabenson.livejournal.com]

Why do you think I'm not at work this week?

[mikee-pm.livejournal.com]

will i be very unpopular if i say there isn't any hoyay in svu at all?

[cabenson.livejournal.com]

Yes. And I will call Interpool and Immigration. Let's see you try to get in the country now, bizizzle. ;)

[mikee-pm.livejournal.com]

i'm a fierce israeli.

[maroukian.livejournal.com]

and a blind, incognizant one, as well
there isn't any hoyay in svu at all?
::humph::
you didn't even see the ep yet!

[betsybanger.livejournal.com]

You are correct, not since Alex left.
Yet I'm amazed you did not pick up on it during S2-4, including 'Loss'. tssk tssk Too busy swinging a hammer and screwdriver.

[mikee-pm.livejournal.com]

[betsybanger.livejournal.com]

That? Is just cruel. There's no need to throw Elliot under the lurching bus!

I wish Petrovsky had been the presiding judge. It just would have made more sense (considering their love/hate mentor relationship) and I would have loved to have seen Lena’s face when Alex strutted into that courtroom.

Yeah, it's a real shame that Petrovsky wasn't the judge. I wish tptb had put a little more thought into this, and scheduled it when all the main players could play.

3. Alex has not become weak in her time away. She has fears, which seem to be reasonable, but she is still her feisty, sarcastic, sexy self. I love her so.

She was amazing. I miss her already. Again.

[cabenson.livejournal.com]

That? Is just cruel. There's no need to throw Elliot under the lurching bus! </i< Oh man..I'm sorry. I can handle the A/O and A/E squeeres, but I need to dismantle the O/E group.

[ava-cabot.livejournal.com]

I like the idea of a C/E pairing. :lets plot bunnies run wild:

You are a genius.

I love you like hicks love coupons.
