Ok, so In gerneral I liked this episode. It was smart, and interesting, but it don't under stand the cast seperation. In most shows (Including LO: SVU, CSI, and Castle) There are to sets of partners that work a case, but yet in this show if Noth and the other lady work the case, we never see anyone eles, and if bobby and his partner have a case, Noth is gone. So, except my favorite charater, Bobby's partner, wasn't there it was good.
I thought this episode, was great, and intense, and emotional. The acting was good, it wasn't hard to believe these people as on drugs, and murderers and thiefs.
No one should ever second guess Noth's instinct, because he was right about the girl, and she would have died if his captian believed him.
PS I know it sounds like I'm not aware that TV isn't real, but I do... sometimes. :)moreless
