I swear i felt like Stabler did when he was in the hole and thought that a whole week had gone by, not just three days. I felt this episode just went on for hours and every minute that went by just left me feeling even more bitter than before. Rhea's and Meloni's performances along with an interesting plot line were the best things about the episode. The worst were the new DA character who just keeps on getting more irrelevant by the episode and the whole tone that the story set. Lahti is obviously a good actress but her character is so one-sided that it turns her into a nasty cartoon. This is the third consecutive episode of this season that ends with justice not being really done to the true victims. That's a very bad pattern that is turning Benson and Stabler into the DA's puppets making one careless choice after another. As a big fan of the show, i am saddened.
