A/N: Okay, I had to get this out of my system so I could write a paper for class. A lot of people have been saying how upset they were that Elliot wasn't in PTSD and that he didn't have his "4 lines." I wasn't even aware he was supposed to be in the episode at all, so I got to thinking…what would those four lines have been? These are what I came up with. I didn't put in many descriptors of how things are said because I thought I'd leave that up to you to interpret, just like the actors have to do with a script. Some things could be taken more than one way I'm sure.
Enjoy! Tell me what you think if you feel like it.
Disclaimer: Dick Wolf owns the show and the characters. Not me.
Version One:
Elliot: I heard Cragen told you to take some time off.
Olivia: Where'd you hear that?
Elliot: Not important. Something goin' on that you need time off? Everything okay?
Olivia: (whispered) No.
Elliot: What happened? Liv…?
Olivia: Six months ago…I was sexually assaulted.
Elliot: Why didn't you tell me?
Olivia: I couldn't. It's not as easy to tell someone you love.
Elliot: (jaw drops; silence)
Olivia: (walks away)
Version Two:
Elliot: A woman came in to see you. Said she knew you from group. I told her you don't have a "group." Apparently I'm wrong.
Olivia: El…
Elliot: You're in therapy and didn't tell me? Why? What are you going for?
Olivia: It's a group for sexually assaulted women and rape victims.
Elliot: (pause) Which category are you?
Olivia: Assaulted.
Elliot: Liv, why didn't I know? You don't trust me or something?
Olivia: I didn't want you thinking I couldn't watch my back. That I couldn't do my job.
Elliot: Where would you get a crazy idea like that?
**Okay, so he has one extra line, but I had to put it in there. (Here, I'm referencing the Gitano case.)
Version Three:
Elliot: What's wrong with you?
Olivia: I don't even know where to start answering.
Elliot: Start anywhere.
Olivia: It's not that easy.
Elliot: How can I make it easier for you?
Olivia: Turn around. Don't look at me.
Elliot: What?
Olivia: Just humor me. Please? (He turns) There's something I need to tell you….
Version Four:
Elliot: Who was that?
Olivia: Master Sergeant Pruit. I owed him an apology.
Elliot: He's a Marine.
Olivia: Yeah. So?
Elliot: Nothing, just clarifying. You okay? You look all bent outta shape.
Olivia: I'm fine. There was just something about him…something he said.
Elliot: Oh no. Don't tell me you have a thing for Marines.
Olivia: Yeah, I guess I do.
Version Five:
Olivia: Elliot? What're you doing here?
Elliot: Trying to get the Cap to let me back early. Where you headed this early?
Olivia: Home.
Elliot: You sick or something?
Olivia: Yeah…or something…
Elliot: Anything I can do?
Olivia: Maybe later.
Elliot: Okay? Well, I'm here when you need me.
A/N: Like I said before, leave me a review if you feel like it. They're always appreciated! Tell me which version you liked best, and who knows, maybe it'll end up in another story somewhere…
Thanks for reading!
