This is my AU version of events immediately following the interrogation of Bobby when Rick learns of Kate's lie. I hated the episode with Slaughter and was not so much a fan of the Limey. I think Rick was painted as a jilted Youth, rather than the mature man, who had survived infidelity, and differences with two wives, as well as desertion from Kyra.
