"Perfect"

By phatboi2006, Oct 11, 2007

This is why it is never good to talk to strangers, especially over the internet. A girl is raped by a person she met over the internet and reported to the Special Victims Unit. Detective John Munch had to pretend he was a teenage girl to try and catch this guy but by doing though, they interfered with an undercover FBI operation. Cragen was in hot water. As many know, Elliot always parallels the case with his kids. This time he read through his daughter's e-mail and she got really mad at him. He then put a password lock on the computer. Elliot was being over protective and explained everything to his daughter and she ended up forgiving him. This shows how Elliot was a good, calm fellow back in the first seasons before his divorce with Kathy. Overall, I thought this was a well written episode.moreless

"Superb"

By farscapefanuk, Aug 21, 2007

I really liked this episode, becuase for the first time they are dealing with the issue of the internet. I don't know how many of you out there who have dealt with dodgy people on the internet, but i know they are out there and that they are a very real threat. So in this episode we ind out that a group of child molesters are using the internet to track down young children. It is only when a young woman claims to be raped by one of these internet men that the team start to crack down on them. Also it was intresting to see that Stapler began to wonder if one of his children could be chatting with one of these perverts. So overall i thought this was a fantastic episode and i really enjoyed it.moreless

By ourkissgoodbye, Feb 02, 2007

When a young girl reports that she had been raped, Detectives Benson and Stabler start their search looking for an online preditor known as the "YachtsMan." As the episode progresses, you find out that the "YachtsMan" likes to set dates with young girls, and then photograph them in compromising positions. The special victims unit detectives uncover an entire community of pedophiles who use the internet to meet their victims.

This is a great episode. It opens your eyes to see what danger is really out there. When you are online, everything you do it tracked and can all lead back to you. It teaches you to be careful.moreless
