@@heidibower2538 It was so cute to see Stabler looking after him with Kathy at their home. Tommy looked a bit like Dickie did at their start of the series, which must have reminded Kathy and Elliot of what it was like when Dickie was little. I love their whole exchange about not being able to keep him and how Elliot really not so secretly wants a boy. The car accident is such a tense moment in the episode. Definitely one of the most rewatchable ones. I still gasp at the car accident, even when I know it’s coming!
To me, the worst crime wasn't that she lied to her husband about Tommy being his. It was the fact that, as far as Tommy knew, her husband WAS his dad, and he clearly loved him - and her husband loved her son... And she was going to take all that away from both of them just to be with her f-toy. How selfish a mom could you be??
Saddest thing ever. The woman destroys her family because she is unhappy. Instead of talking to her husband and working on the relationship. All she did was transfer her pain onto her child.
The snuggle thing is definitely her having another ugly, and the overpricing garbage is just to attract more braindead moobs to put said ugly in the flesh carriage...This is never a normal phase for married women.
She doesn't care and doesn't understand the world. All that hard work pays for everything. It's all about her and her needs she wants it all. Make it make sense!
The cheating wife had always stuck out to me ever since I came across this episode. I think it's complete BS how the wife didn't actually know who her son's father was until the police intervened. I always believed she was going to abandon Tommy if he was the husband's child and focus on her "new life" with her boyfriend after divorce. It seemed she only wanted to take legal custody of Tommy after the divorce just because she knows now that her boyfriend is the father. It's really sad how she didn't think ahead that her cheating behavior was an immediate red flag to her child's well-being because she was setting a bad example to him. It must have been a nightmare for the child to lose his father and move in with a complete stranger who was never a part of his life. It was a BS move on the boyfriend to immediately get involved and assume Tommy would get along with him.😢
She would do what her lover wanted. Lover wanted the child? She would sue for custody. Lover doesn't want to take care of the child? Go for a settlement
Don't forget she's also at fault for getting the nanny involved. Even if she was never murdered, Tommy still reacted confused regardless because he was told that he'd be home with mom all day. Who knows how the nanny would have done/said if the husband came home earlier than expected.😮
At 5:16, Stabler had the right idea not wanting to tell but he should be more careful where he speaks if the victim or suspect is in the room with him.
That man chasing him like that, and people standing by watching in the street not doing nothing, except the woman. And, how he hugged Stabler The wife is nasty as hell and something else. She doesn't care, about her son at all.
@@Exodianecross1978 who has no rights to him, and will need to adopt him. and in order to do that he will need to have a good home, and make a good amount of money. They wont just hand over the boy because he is the biological father, thats why the other father got so mad at the situation cause he knew they were targeting him and his son for money.
It’s a real shame that peacock is only available for people living in the USA and countries like that because I live in the UK I can only watch partial bits
If only Jake had known he would've had custody... and maybe.. the court would've saw he was the better parent.. He didn't have to leave Tommy motherless and fatherless..
Have you not seen our judicial system!?😂 A father could be making 6 figures and a large home, and a judge would still give the mother full custody. We have an injustice system, especially when it pertains to child custody and support.
They would have given the mother custody and make the ex husband pay child support for a kid that isn’t his while the real father continues to mouch around. The kid wouldn’t see any of the child support money because the government would take their share and the mother would take the rest for shopping sprees because raising a kid is so stressful and she needs to treat herself.
I’m sorry, I know this is bad, I’m just a few seconds in, maybe because I just wake up and sees this, but her face when the boy said “mommy” as his mother’s name is killing me 0:25 , like, okay kid, fair enough 😅
Ahh yes the usual. She loves her husband but he cares too much about his family and works too hard to provide for them so she decides instead of asking him to make time for her, you know communicating as couples should, instead she just sleeps with other men and betrays him. I love how rational this is... not. Disgusting. And of course their kid being traumatized seeing a murder and covered in blood before running, only to have the husband be immediately suspected, is how the poor guy finds this out, and then further that it's not his kid...
@missyrose2154 you also don't falsely accuse someone of SA to gain an advantage in a divorce, or stop someone from gaining custody of their child but still expect them to pay child support.
Stabler: "If she wants to tell him, that kid isn't his, that's her choice, not ours. Aaaaaaaaand he's right behind us, isn't he" Benson: "Yep, way to go big mouth".
Tommy was such a cutie wasn't he? I love when Benson asked him "What's your mom's name?" He said "Mommy". "What's your last name?" He shrugs. I know you saw that too. He's just so cute.
Doubt that the cheating partner is going to take Tommy into custody, after the whole situation, i'm so sure that he will be in the foster care until he is adopted into a nice family. A good way to heal the mental scars of what he has been through so much.
he'd almost certainly be better off with that wreck of a man instead of abused and thrown around by fosters. He could get lucky and end up with a good family but its unlikely
@@ChelseaSmithersonand he has a better chance with a guy who wasn’t man enough to take care of his own kid for 3 years and can barely afford a place to stay, yeah ok.
"What do I tell him when he's older" explain it now. There are ways to explain almost anything to a kid if you know what you're doing. I know that won't fix what the parents ACTUALLY do in the episode but for real life, if you pause to think hard, you can craft a child-appropriate explanation for pretty much any situation.
I've read that it's generally a good idea to tell children who were adopted at birth that they're adopted when they're still quite young. It prevents a shocking reveal situation, and as their brain develops, they'll understand both the concept of adoption and the adoptive parents' love for them is not different to that of a biological family
@DepravedCoTApologist agreed. You basically introduce a very simplified explanation when they're super little and flesh out the more adult details as they get older
@@freyja8384 Given that shes in some crummy motel with another guy while her son's at home with the nanny miles away; I'd say you're onto something- 🤔
That’s not even the ending of the episode. That’s the halfway point. The other half revolves around Benson helping to save Kathy and successfully saves her and Stabler’s baby. The baby later named Eliot Jr.
Not everyone is a cheater. And I'm not just saying this to be nice. There are very nice intelligent women in the world. But if you want to stay single, that is your choice.
That was totally the police fault for exposing to that man that he’s not the biological father because they didn’t think he was going to react who wouldn’t money is one thing love is another😮
Wait where did the money come from? I thought the not real dad just wants his son to be with him not to be taken away by the mother who actually trying to depraved her soon to be ex husband his son.
i don't remember if this is an older episode or not but if it is then in that time maybe but if nit then he wouldn't be paying her alimony because they had proof via this investigation that she was having an affair.
I dont give a dam what anyone says just because the blood flowing through a child is not your blood that does not mean you are not the Father a True Father is there for his kids regardless of if its his child or not
Hearing her say the dad would be forced to pay his cheating wife alimony and child support that she and her baby daddy can live off of is beyond infuriating. On top of that, he won't be able to see his son when he wants either.🤬
He is still legally the father, thus the child support payments. However, the custody battle would be messy. Her constant cheating and the fact the kid didn't seem to know his mother's name could be used against her. However, as there was no blood relationship, he is a workaholic and custody laws a weighted towards women... the father would have a 20% chance of winning primary custody at best. Standard visitations would be agreed upon during the divorce process.
Something tells me she wasn't going to go through the trouble of a divorce unless she got caught. Why not keep your happy home life and get your strange salami on the side at the same time if you can? She's basically having her cake and eating it too.
"Till Death Do Us Part!" are just words, poems that are memorize without deeper meaning. Marriage is just an event like promotion that can be terminated if demoted or fired.
Does this mean with Jake in jail, Matt would have custody of Tommy? And god forbid access to money inherited from Leah to Tommy? What a mess. This is why there should be laws put in place to protect men from scheming women.
"She was going to ask you for a divorce."
"When?! After she spent all my money?!"
"Jake, please! I'm allergic to accountability!"
That's basically all I got from her!

do u still need to pay alimony when ur spouse cheats?
