Summary
Barba’s voice was flat and he avoided looking at Carisi as he told him, “I’ve been — misplacing things. Forgetting people’s names that I’ve met recently.” After a long moment, he huffed a sigh before asking Carisi, his voice strained, “Have you noticed…?”
He trailed off like he couldn’t bear to finish the question, and Carisi shook his head firmly. “No, of course not. I mean, have you misplaced a few things around the apartment? Sure. But you’ve also been under an incredible amount of stress recently, and I’m sure it’s fine.” He grabbed Barba’s hand and squeezed it. “I’m sure you’re fine.”
“But what if I’m not?”

Summary
Fin took a step closer to Carisi, his hands held up placatingly. “The way I see it, you’ve got two choices,” he said. “You can holster your gun and come with me, or you can do something really stupid that you’ll regret.”
“Is Rafael still dead in both those choices?” Carisi asked numbly.
Fin shrugged. “Yeah,” he said, bluntly, knowing that sugarcoating it or lying would do far more harm than good. “Doesn’t matter what you choose — you can’t bring him back.” He saw Carisi hesitate, his expression full of anguish, and he added softly, “You can live without him, Sonny.”
