Elliot sees himself in a suspect.

This episode was outstanding. I really loved how tightly connected Elliot felt he was to the case, especially the suspect who was under investigation for murdering two sex offenders. Elliot is inclined to just forget the investigation or hand it over to homicide, but Cragen insists and Elliot has to come to terms with his own emotions. Olivia handles herself very professionally, but Elliot needs help getting through it. In one of the best interrogation scenes of the second season, Elliot sits down with the main suspect and just talks to him. It wasn't heavy questioning, but an emotional Elliot talking about a past case that caused him many personal issues. It was great to see an Elliot heavy episode that had him really struggling and needing help, rather than being his usual tough and strong self.moreless

Known sex offenders are being murdered, and a community activist-who also happens to be a former police officer-is the prime suspect.

A great episode of a great series. We get some real insight into Stabler's character in a chilling interrogation room scene with Eric Roberts. Roberts is great in his guest shot as a former cop turned neighborhood crusader.

As with most episodes in the series, the perp is the one that we least suspect, until you hear the evidence.

When a convicted child molester, Thomas Marchek is found shot point blank in the head, One Police Plaza hands the case to the Detectives of the Special Victims Unit. At first glance, the family of Marchek's victim becomes the focus of the investigation. Tension starts to run high when another convicted rapist, Craig Moss, is found dead. Once the detectives uncover more evidence, it leads them to, Sam Winfield, a member of Citizen Watch who was known to harass Marchek. It turns out that the two victims we featured on a flyer that was put out by the Citizen Watch group. In an effort to prevent another murder, they inform the other's who were on the same flyers of the possibility that their lives may be at risk. Winfield is cleared of all charges when Marchek's ex girlfriend is found with her wrist slit in a bathtub. They get her confession while she is in the hospital, which leads them to her friend who works at a local aids clinic.

This is a good episode. It is sorta confusing to watch while the detectives are trying to piece together the evidence in order to find the perp. But in the end they solve the case, and the good guys win once again.moreless
