Things I liked about this episode.
May contain spoilers:

-Ben & Chickie's Hi5
-Dewey's Prank
-Sherman going Ryan Atwood on the suspect!
-Dewey the whole episode
-Sherman yelling at Cooper
-Sammy naming his baby after Nate
-John saying "Thank you" to Ben
-Ben and Sammy!

Overall it was an amazing episode. And I really hope there's a fourth season.... I miss 'Cooperman' Already.

Such an amazing episode!

Am I wrong to like the Lydia/Rodrigo relationship? LOL. Josie and her comments were hysterical! So funny when she answered Lydia's phone. What did Josie call her, a child molester?? LMAO. He is 28!! They are only 8 years apart.

Dewey was awesome! His prank on Ben and then his interaction with Denise. It was nice we got to see a softer side to him by the end of the episode. I am glad we got Chickie in this episode too.

Sammy was great. He and Sal talking in the station was a very touching scene. Very nice to have named the baby Nathaniel. Sammy and Ben was great at the end!! I will always prefer Sherman and Cooper, but Sammy is not a bad second choice.

Ben and John......awesome this episode!! Although, I was still on cloud 9 with Ben tweeting me back before the show. The confortation between these two after Ben went Ryan Atwood on the suspect was so intense and great acting there! The car scene when John gave Ben his keys and told him he would need some clothes and then his "thank you" to him were very touching. John and the nurse scene was heart breaking. I am glad he finally went and got some help.

Fingers crossed for the announcement of S4!

I had tears on my eyes in the end...I can't believe season 3 is over
Btw, it was a brilliant season finale!!!

Ben rocked in this episode!!!
I loved the scene with John in the car where he said "Thank you" to Ben So touching!
Ben's look before getting in the car with Sammy was so heart breaking, he missed John and I miss Cooperman already

I agree with all what you've said. Great great episode!!
The last scene with Ben and Sammy was kind of funny and ITA with the heart breaking, Ben must have had a deja vu to his first day as a boot.

Now we have to find a way to get Ben and John together again.

I have just seen the episode, I was determined to watch if before the weekend!!

ant - I agree with everything you listed.

Jen, Kris, Rox, alluxera and TC - I agree with all your comments too.

There were a few shots of Ben on the roof where I literally put my hand on my chest and had to breathe deeply. He looked just totally amazing. These were the scenes I had wanted to see more of all season with Ben. Lets hope there will be a fourth season.

I loved seeing Ben with Sammy - but yes missing Cooperman already.

That look Ben made like he was waiting for Cooper to arrive made me miss Cooperman more
