Also, the logistics of Benson and Voight being in a relationship wouldnt have been easy.

The guys in Chicago, Leight says.

Hes the star of that show, shes the star of this show.

Theyre 1,500 miles away, Leight continues.

I wasnt sure how often they could get together for Passover Seder or something.

I didnt understand how it would work logistically, and I think politically there was distance between them.

Theres enough coupling up onP.D.without me loaning one of my few officers.

(Dont worry, Bensons already got her job back!)

For his part, Beghe still believes theres a deep love between Benson and Voight.

Theres probably 8 billion definitions of that word and 8 billion variations of it, but they care.

I think its like coming home being together.

In other words, Tucker better not treat Benson poorly or hell have to answer to Voight.
