Warning: Spoilers
What can you say with regards to such reputations as 'Peter Strauss and 'Joan Cusack' in an episode to remember. Jonas character as the grieving mother for her lost daughter (whom went missing 10 years previously on a camping trip) was as convincing as always; along with Strauss' performance..Gold.. I can't say the same for 'Mariska Hagitays' character benton though. I don't understand how an experienced SVU trained officer like Benton has no instincts with regards to people's character... Doesn't she seem to always disbelieve real and truthful people, and then, place all belief in the actual criminal..😣 I Have watched this series for many years now and golly, I truelly believe that Benton would have lost her job years ago in reality. Innocent people have been terrorised brutally by her and, sometimes her partner Stabler, 'Christopher Meloni' (Although I really like his character) He should have his own series..👌 In this episode, they released a suspect that supposedly was ready for abducting a missing child, without really checking him out thoroughly... I mean really, it was obvious he was up to no-good. As usual I suspected, oh no, here we go again, it seemed to be going in the direction of "A Benton Love Affair" as she does seem to drop it so often with numerous shady characters...Wait for it..Part ll...??? That's what I think..The story may continue..🤔 Yet again, what can I say...."No Instincts"..😉
