It's the rich white football kids vs the poor Dominican stripper; Logan and Folacci vs the Bronx DA's office and a poor black kid and an engaged Japanese stripper are caught in the middle. Let's get ready to rumble!!
This episode feels as though it should have been shown earlier on in the season, not least because it still has the super-hyped editing in the pre-title sequence, and Folacci still has her limp, which seemed to have gone two episodes ago. More importantly this is the first time Folacci confronts Logan about being as tactful as he has become in his relationship with her, which is something you think she might have mentioned earlier. Logan, of course, gets the opportunity to trot out the old Statten Island story, which is nice for the continuity fans amongst us.
The best part about this story, however, is that the poisonous bitch who caused all the problems gets away with it. Not that I like to see the villains escape, you understand, but Law & Order gives us painful reminders that the world is not really fair and sometimes even though someone can be manipulative enough to cause a murder, they will be able to walk free from the criminal justice system. One believes that she'll get her comeuppance though.
A good episode, with some nice character moments for the principal cast and a lingering after-taste at the end.
"A"
