"I think that's sort of what moms do, isn't it? Mine's the same way." Of course, probably less so than Hawke's, but her mother still laid the guilt trip on her every Sunday for a year about when was she gonna get married, and settle down. And then the guilt trip shifted to when she was going to bring Strand to meet her parents.

A year before they started dating. So Alex got it.

But she does wrap her arms around Hawke, giving her a full on hug, because if there's anyone who needs one right now, it's her.
