I find "Partners" so fascinating because I like trying to figure out what the fuck was he thinking. Surely he would've realized that Starsky would be completely devastated by that, not just a little scared or guilty? The only explanation I can think of is that he wanted to see Starsky all broken up for some reason. Maybe because he wanted to see how much Starsky loves him; like Ralphie from "A Christmas Story" gleefully fantasizing about how brokenhearted his parents would be if he went blind from soap poisoning.

DA

I haven't seen those eps for years, but I always interpreted Hutch's increasing meanness - and what he did in Starsky vs Hutch - to be expressions of him having this slow, depressive breakdown where he's questioning the meaning of his life and the meaning of his friendship with Starsky. I see what he did in SvsH as essentially self-desructive behaviour. You can also add in him having this years long gay/ 'Oh shit I'm in love with my partner' freakout if you're on that side of the fence...

Either way, it makes for fantastic fanfic that tries to explain then fix their relationship in season 4.

ayrt

Yeah, I saw SvH as pretty self-destructive too. As if he was just so sick of himself/his job/his life he wanted to force Starsky to get lost and let him self-destruct in peace, because he couldn't do that properly if Starsky was still his friend.

I try to headcanon it as sympathetically as possible though - that he was afraid that if he crashed and burned, he'd drag Starsky down with him, so on some subconscious level he felt he had to push Starsky away from him to keep him safe.

(I love that you like to theorize detailed-ly about these things too, anon! :P)
