Could you explain the use of Se here?

Is the se here like the accidental se? Is there a broader pattern here that I am missing? Are there a set number of pronomial verbs that follow this structure? Usually when I see Se at the end of a verb I think, okay this needs to be used reflexively, se and the verb agree with each other and are usually variable and not fixed in the singular/plural third person or paired with an indirect pronoun as in this lesson. Does the verb being transitive or intransitive have any bearing on the use of the indirect object pronouns? 

Thanks,

Devin

I think I’ve got it. This is the dative of experience.
