He likes her. He really, really, REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY LIKES HER, so bad he has repressed it to the point that when stressed he starts babbling about her in front of their boss. Mike Cutter: BRITISH BY ACTOR, BRITISH IN PROPRIETY TOWARDS LOVE. And then they stay up late together prepping her, and they both look like shit and neither of them care, and oh. my. GOD. I was fairly certain we were in for something when they took the beat to show Mike was genuinely worried about Connie post-incident at the hotel, but figured OH BUT THIS LAW & ORDER. EVEN WITH ITS RECENT TRACK RECORD, CERTAINLY THEY WOULDN'T - OH, OKAY, YOU ARE? REALLY? ALL RIGHT, THANKS. I now want to furiously re-watch (ish? fast-forward just to the bits that are awesome?) everything, because I have the feeling that "Mike thinks Connie is way too hot to ever go for the likes of him" is a note Linus Roache has been playing for, basically, ever? (As opposed to old-school McCoy, who knew what we wanted and how to smile sexily for it; that is, until Claire... did, and died. OH. SHOW.)
"YOUR PARTNER." My post-ep of this will inevitably include Lupo & Connie getting beers to discuss that lol time when he had a crush on her.
(HOW DOES THIS SHOW EXIST IN THE SAME CANON AS SVU? NO SERIOUSLY, HOW?)

THE NOISES I MADE AT THAT POINT WERE IN NO WAY DIGNIFIED. HE IS IN LOVE WITH HER. OH MY GOD.
...his little face! when he realizes what exactly he's been babbling to Jack about! Oh, my goodness, Mike Cutter, if I didn't already love you. And that other guy being so much taller than him was lolarious.
But what I love most about that episode, out of MANY THINGS, is that they took the time to refer to Mike and Connie as partners. BECAUSE WHAT LAW AND ORDER IS COMPLETE WITHOUT PARTNERS IN LOVE?
IT HAPPENED.
IT ACTUALLY HAPPENED IN NOT MY BRAIN OR YOURS.
