111
The team investigates the death of a young model, whose body was found near a juvenile detention camp for girls. Across town, Delko and Speedle probe the bizarre death of a man who was apparently burned from the inside.
Read Full Recap » (warning: possible spoilers!)A young girl is found dead. She was around 18 they thought. The young girl wasn't bruised at all. She wore a shirt from a boot camp. They found a missing shirt from a girl at the boot camp and salt on the floor. The girl who was found dead went to the barracks to see one of her friends. She was a model and her mother made her have sex with the photographers. She was running away, but she fell and hit her head while running from her and the leeches sucked all the bruising and blood off from the top of the skin.
A girl is killed under mysterious circumstances at a juvenile boot camp kind of thing. And Megan finally departs - in writing not person. hide show
It's just an okay episode for me. A fairly routine whodunnit, with a reasonably good ending.
I loved the presence of Blair Brown - I've always liked her as an actress and her role in this is terrific.
The leeches stuff is also fun to hear about - good to know those doctors from yesteryear weren't so far from the mark.
And we suddenly hear that Megan is not coming back for personal reasons. This bit was very dissatisfying. There was no real indication that Megan wouldn't continue and suddenly she's handing out notes saying don't try to contact me. Whilst I didn't really think the character was right and I did have a problem with Kim Delaney's playing of it, I though this was a very weak cop out. It makes me think there must have been more to the whole background situation than just her deciding to leave, or a spat between her and Caruso. Surely if things hadn't completely degenerated they would have had a scene where she told her reasons for herself, not sent notes. She's supposed to be a strong woman. It all just didn't sit well. I'm not sad that Megan went, but I'm sad that they didn't handle it better - hey they could have killed her off in some spectacular fashion which would have given the network a great rating!
Great show as usual despite Kim Delaney hide show
Again this was a great show as usual and that
I think that the show is now much better now that
Kim Delaney is gone and the others just were badly
Miscast with her. No wonder I love Alexx as she talks
To the dead like they were alive. A girl is murdered
At a camp that should had helped but instead harmed people.
