Rizzoli & Isles

My goodness, you guys. This episode. It’s like all of the gay from previous episodes coalesced into One Giant Ball of Gay and it rolled and rolled down a Big Gay Mountain until it kerploded into a billion sparkling rainbows.

Only Jane has opted to brave the crack in the middle so that she and Maura can sit so close that their arms are touching. While watching baseball.

And Jane is there.

With her feet on Maura’s coffee table.

And Maura don’t care.

Honestly, all I did was pause this episode half a second into it and I feel like I can end this recap here. What more need be said? Really.

But let’s hit play and see what happens.
