I hold my shit together for the entire episode, through Jules being tied to the clock tower, through Shawn's reaction when Gus says Jules is okay, through Abigail breaking up with Shawn after he saves her life. But I lose it when Lassie holds Jules while she's crying in that montage at the end. That's just the sweetest, most tender, truly realistic moment...you see the relationship between Juliet and Lassie move to a place where they're not just co-workers, not even just partners: they're almost like family. They care so much about each other when it comes down to it. Obviously Jules being in that situation isn't plausible in real life, but the way she reacts (getting angry when people try to comfort her, but breaks down when she's finally around someone she feels safe with) is so well-acted. You truly feel her pain and Lassie's sympathy for her.
Anyways. It's one of my favorite moments from not just the episode, but the entire series.
