This episode should be called Whiny Men because that's all that this episode is about. Between Deacon acting like a five year old because of his jealousy, Will whining because he can't decide if he wants to write a song with an artist just because he's pro traditional family, Luke almost punching his spoiled teenage son, Scarlet's boring boyfriend complaining about not getting to ever see Scarlet while she's on tour then she shows up and surprises him and he whines about that because he's not spontaneous like her, Avery down in the dumps because he can't find a good gig. Oh my gosh, it's getting so OLD.

Finally, an episode in season 8 that gets back to what made me love this show in the first place!

A serial killer is on the loose and the police already know him. He sued the city of Chicago for wrongful arrest and got off on a technicality. I love these episodes where sergeant Voight lets his emotions show.

Also, the amount of characters IMDb requires for a review now is ridiculous! How on earth do they expect us to really have that much to say about any and every episode of a TV show or movies that we review? Like, I still have sixty characters that are "required", so I'm just rambling. It didn't used to be this way.

Jack McCoy has had many negative dealings with the governor of New York in past episodes. At the end of this episode, it finally comes to an end as Jack takes down both the governor and his wife for criminal misconduct. The governor's house of cards finally comes tumbling down as the investigation into a murder turns up evidence of the governor's wife paying for that murder.

One thing leads to another, leads to another in this episode. A really good one. The main focus ends up being a judge who gets away for a long time with being as senile as our president, with the help of his law clerk.

As most of the other reviews mention, Serena asks at the end of the episode if she was fired because she was a lesbian. What other reviews DON'T tell you is that it's not just out of left field, but it's contrary to all the times she talks about men she's dated: "A guy I went out with once..." or talking about her prom night, etc. That line was so overly forced.

When a girl that has been kidnapped and abused threatens to kill herself in a subway train, they bring her father in. But instead of telling her that they're bringing her father in they just keep saying to wait a few minutes. It's just so stupid and unrealistic.

This was about the dumbest ending to the episode possible. Love is this sweet, nice girl who just wants to cook, bake, and be loved. But we are supposed to believe that she is going to murder the person that proves to her that her boyfriend is a murderer? I'm not even going to watch the last episode. This season is horrible.

I get what the writers were going for, but it didn't work. It was so odd compared to the way this show typically goes. I got annoyed and didn't pay a ton of attention, but just wanted to see the end to see if it was a Dream state of Booth while in surgery for a brain tumor.
