Okay, so in Season 2 of Law & Order, a female psychologist consoles a detective over the loss of his partner. Their relationship seems platonic, but it isn't until Season 18 that it's heavily implied that she in fact slept with that detective.
What's that trope called? It's driving me nuts. Any suggestions would help. Thanks!
