Maybe it should mess with Crabb's head, if she looks at the situation objectively. Having what was originally a tame evening turned into a dramatic affair should bother someone, surely, even if both memories exist side by side—but the fact of the matter is the memory of that evening has long been poisoned. Cragen did that all on his own.

So when Crabb comes and finds Watson sat at the Drunken Sailor, the first thing out of her mouth isn't frustration or questioning what he was thinking, it's: "Y'know I dunno if I should be asking to shake your hand or apologising for punching you, first off."
