Outlier
Just realized the title of my article is a triple entendre. Two of them you'll discover in the episode, but the meaning here is that I don't rate this episode as highly as others have.
I like to write spoiler-free reviews so bear with me. You likely know that twists and turns are part of SVUs DNA. You probably also know that episodes don't always have a happy or neatly wrapped ending. This episode left me unfulfilled...I felt like time cramped the story from resolving some of its threads.
The episode I watched right before this one, Poison, did a better job with this kind of ending. I wasn't totally satisfied but enough was done to where I could let it go. Design wasn't a bad episode, I just don't think its high rating is justified.
