Special Victims Unit: New York City, Wolf's hometown. 4th April 2006

     Olivia and Elliot have been partners for many years. But this case put their relationship through the ringer hole when Victor Paul Gitano, a recently released sex offender, kidnaps two children after killing the rest of their family. They find out that Victor was heading to a train station and found him holding a boy hostage. That's when Olivia panics and tries to get to the boy in a rush. But all of a sudden, Victor slashed her throat with his knife, which causes Elliot to become scared and chose Olivia over the boy and his sister. Only to find out that the wound was not that deep. Which causes Victor to kill the little boy and run off with the girl. The grief hits Elliot hard and showed him that Olivia meant more to him than anything else. They got too close. He knew that he had feelings for Olivia for a long time, but Elliot didn't think that he would ever act on them. He was very wrong. Elliot also blamed himself for the little boy dying because he chose Olivia. He was willing to die. The little boy was at the icing on top of the cake. He has lost his wife to a damn divorce, and she took the kids with her. His kids seemed to hate him. He felt more like a horrible father every day.
     Olivia, on the other hand, was in the middle of another hostage, but this time it was Elliot's life in her hands. Victor held his gun against the back of Elliot's head and was screaming at Olivia. "Drop it! Drop your weapon! I'm going to shoot him!" Olivia is hesitating and holding her gun tight in her grip and was trying to get a good shot on Victor while Elliot was in her ear.

     "Shoot him..Pull the trigger, don't even think about it." But Olivia couldn't do it. She couldn't risk losing Elliot if she shoots the guy. Her breathing was hard and heavy as she tried to get a good shoot on Victor while another police were hiding away to kill Victor.
"Shut up! Everybody shut up! Victor, there's no way out of this." Olivia said with anger and anxiety in her voice as she watched Victor ever move as he held the gun to Elliot.
"Stop talking," Victor mumbled as he stumbled back and looking for a way out. He continued to get on Olivia's nervous. "You know what's gonna happen if you don't put that gun down."
Olivia continues to try to calm him down and negotiate with him about not shooting Elliot, who was trying to make her kill Victor to jeopardize his life. Finally, the other police officer shoots Victor and saved Elliot. In the big rush to Elliot's aid, they listened carefully to some noises coming from a back room, and they find the little girl, and she was not hurt. They take her to the hospital where Elliot and Olivia sit in silence, but then Elliot states. "If that sniper hadn't beaten you to it, I know you would have taken the shot, Olivia."
"No, I wouldn't have... Did you expect me to? Did you expect me to cause your death? - What about your kids?" Olivia was looking at him with concern eyes and confusion. Thought to herself, 'What about me?' But she did not say that out loud. She kept her feelings in check. Elliot looks at her with a stranger's eyes and just shaking his head.
"I don't know. Couldn't get that boy out of my head." Elliot confessed to her and sat down with his head in his hands.
"What about me? Look, we both chose each other over the job." Olivia did say this time and spoke with seriousness.
"I'll never let that happen again. Otherwise, We can't be partners." Elliot mumbled.
"I can't believe you're saying that." Olivia looked shocked at him and hurt.
"You and this job are the only things I've got anymore. I don't wanna wreck that." He told her with all the truth he had left in him. She knew there that was the problem. They both did not want to lose each other. They both meant too much to each other. She stood up and had to walk away from the situation. She knew they had to get a new partner. She couldn't rick anymore of this relationship.
