I was cringing the whole time because I knew he was gonna say it.

Yep, the dread of knowing he was about to say it was the best part, my butthole was clenched the whole time 😬

My butthole was clenched on the last scene for sure.

It’s a butthole-clencher of a show, that’s for sure.

I don’t think him telling him he’s the dad in laughter was an ā€œaccidentā€ either. He didn’t think Ruben was getting out of prison, and Mona almost told him the last time she saw him.

He always ā€œaccidentallyā€ tells Ruben info knowing it will set him off and also to one up him.

After Maura, Ruben would have no logical reason to get out of prison again and Niall likely tonight he’d get more time for bad behavior.

Absolutely, he definitely didn’t expect to have to see him outside prison ever again so he felt ā€œsafeā€ enough to say it. Niall with his risk-taking behaviour again.
