- You look just like my brother painted you.
Eames looked like the portrait Bobby had painted of her.
A portrait that Goren had done behind her back, and without her permission.
And worst of all, he'd shown it to his brother.
Why had he done it...
And for what reason.
Had he wanted to show his brother one of his conquests, whom he'd managed to get into his bed, only to throw her out after he'd had his fun with her.
- Tell me... Eames...
Eames snapped out of her thoughts, only to come face to face with two azure eyes looking at her with gravity.
Strange...
Why was Frank looking at her so seriously.
It was hard to understand.
He'd said he wanted to talk to her quickly.
And Eames had a feeling he wasn't going to stay five minutes, but much longer.
So if she didn't want things to drag on, she'd better keep her wits about her, and that way, the five minutes would be over in no time, and Frank would be on his way.
So she nodded, inviting him to continue.
- What could have made my little brother change so much during the vacation he spent with you.
How that...
Goren would have changed.
Had he really been different when he returned.
Moreover, was Frank implying that it was she who had changed Goren, and if so, in what way.

Goren had dropped out of the police academy...
To join the army.
No.
It couldn't be.
And yet, she'd noticed the change in Goren's body.
That he'd become even more virile.
And Eames knew this could only come from the army.
He had the trim body of a soldier.
Which pleased him enormously.
But now was not the time to think about that.
There was something more important.
What Frank had just told him...
Goren's mother had told him much the same thing.
But Eames couldn't see what Goren's mother and older brother were getting at.
It wasn't her who had pushed Goren to leave the police academy...
Let alone join the army.
What did that mean?
Would Goren have insinuated that it was her fault, that she'd pushed him into it, for him to make such a choice.
If so, he'd lied.
- The truth... If Bobby did this... Eames turned his attention back to Frank, who couldn't take his eyes off her, following her every facial expression intently. It's because he never got over losing you.
Pardon.
Goren would never have gotten over losing him.

It was ironic.
When it was he who had gone and cowardly abandoned her.
Frank couldn't be serious.
- I don't know what happened between you... But he was deeply bruised.
What happened between them...
It was simple.
Eames wanted to scream at him...
If your brother hadn't abandoned me, maybe he and I wouldn't be in this situation.
But she couldn't.
In addition, if Goren had been deeply bruised as Frank insinuated...
So had she.
We mustn't forget...
That it was she whom Goren had abandoned.
So Frank didn't know what he was talking about.
And maybe he'd better keep his mouth shut.
And above all, mind his own business.
- I think my brother still loves you just as much... And would like everything to go back to the way it was.
At her words, Eames looked at Frank as if forbidden.
Had she really heard what he'd just said.
Had she not dreamt his words.
No.
There was no way Frank could have said that about Goren.
And yet, with the way he spoke, the way he looked at her, Frank could only be serious.
Frank had just told her that Bobby still loved her…

And he thought Bobby would like everything back the way it was.
And how...
With the damage that had been done.
Nothing would ever go back to the way it was.
- All I know is... if he left back then... he must have been forced to.
What do you mean, forced.
And by whom.
Who would have wanted Bobby to leave.
Everyone in his family liked him.
At least, almost everyone.
Even his big sister, who didn't like him at first, had finally recognized that he was a good person.
At this recollection, Eames opened his eyes wide with fright, and felt his heart stop.
My God...
She'd forgotten.
And how could she have forgotten such a thing.
Elizabeth had been there, the night Goren had left, and she'd stood by him, telling him she regretted having misjudged Goren.
Name of God...
Could she have been wrong about everything.
For there was one person who had liked Goren at first, and hated him in the end.
And that person was none other than her father.
So who knows...
Maybe he'd lied to him.
And maybe he could have forced Bobby to leave.
After all, she was a minor, and he was an adult.

So who was to say that his father hadn't put pressure on Goren?
Because this turnabout was very strange, and even very suspicious, coming from her father.
But she'd rather believed her father than give Goren a chance.
And perhaps she had been wrong about Goren.
Seeing the change in Eames's expression, Frank thought maybe he'd succeeded in making her realize that she'd been wrong about her little brother.
- Eames...
At his name, Eames snapped out of her thoughts to see Frank watching her.
- Bobby doesn't know I've come to see you.
So as Eames knew, Frank had come to see her without Goren's knowledge.
- I'd rather he didn't know I'd come to talk to you.
Frank preferred that Goren didn't know he'd come to talk to him.
And for what reason.
Did he think Goren would react badly to his initiative.
It was quite possible.
Knowing Goren, who never wanted to depend on anyone.
If he found out, he might react very badly.
But on the other hand, Eames had to admit that thanks to Frank, she had remembered a detail from the past, and that this detail was very important.
For this detail told her that maybe Frank and his mother were telling her the truth about Bobby.

And that he hadn't left of his own free will, and that he would have left by force.
- I wouldn't tell him...
With those last words, Frank got up from his seat, moved away from the counter where he put down a few bills to settle the bill, and headed for the exit, but stopped, only to find himself in front of Eames.
- At least give him a chance... He needs you.
He turned away, opened the café door and walked out, leaving Eames puzzled and pondering Frank's words.
Goren needed her.
And to tell the truth...
Eames had to admit she needed him.
So maybe she should give him a chance, as Goren's brother had just told her.
A chance to prove to her that he hadn't abandoned her back then.
- Zu... Zu...
At the vibration of her phone, Eames snapped out of her thoughts to see who was calling.
She took her phone in her hand, to see who was calling.
And at the name on the display, Eames felt her heart beat violently in her chest.
Thinking of the wolf, it was he who was calling her.
But it was strange...
Goren hadn't really called him since he'd been at svu.

He'd call her with news of Lucy, when she was with him, but otherwise, never.
And today, Lucy was at home.
So why was he calling her.
Was there something wrong.
Eames didn't like that at all, or the feeling she was getting.
As if...
But no, she was probably imagining things.
She pressed the pick-up key, and brought the phone to her ear.
- Eames...
At that voice, which wasn't Goren's, Eames' heart froze.
It wasn't Goren's voice on the other end.
Who was this male voice, and to whom did it belong.
And how come he was calling her from Goren's phone.
Eames didn't like this at all.
- It's Stabler... Something's happened to Goren.
