Those of you who have seen it will know what I'm talking about.

Any thoughts?

I'm glad they suggested Holden is on the spectrum. It means less women will have intimidating or abusive behavior from some men on the spectrum ignored and be told they need to understand he can't help it. Women shouldn't have to fear rejecting Autistic men. This episode broke the silencing attempted by the Autism community towards women having vald complaints about harassment by men on the spectrum.

Mixed feelings.Although I did catch the fact that When Noah was sick the doctor mentioned possible developmental problems that may show up later,Benson seemed unnerved when Holden was killed.Maybe wondering what the future holds for her son in a world where people with disabilities have such a hard time adjusting.

Maybe Benson was wondering about a world where people can get away with perp behavior as long as they have a empathy provoking mental illness.
