More importantly, I felt that at all times Ryan Hawley's brilliant acting made it clear that Robert was very uncomfortable with having to deal with Liv in that way. His discomfort was immediate and easy to see and he was very quick to follow Liv out of the door to make certain that she was ok.
The writers are trying to weave Robert through these 2 conflicting stories ... Robert at Home Farm and Robert the man that still loves Aaron and still cares for his sister.
PS - Tonight's most important scene took place at the end in that hospital. Just like in the pre-ONS period, Aaron could read Robert like a book and Robert knew it. Rather than lie to the man that he loves, Robert walked away and when chased by Aaron, confessed everything.
