Poor old Goren. Apparently it has been five months since the last Goren episode (which is rather poor show for Logan and Folacci who appear to have solved one case in that entire time...get with the picture detectives!! You're Major Case for God's sake!) and during that time Goren has been doing nothing but drinking and Eames has been doing...well, nothing I guess.
Enter former detective Mike Stoat (played by former SVU regular Dean Winters) who offers Goren a dodgy job with drug dealers and the single minded Goren accepts, but it appears not before running off to Ross and arranging a deal to get back on the job in exchange for going undercover. Meanwhile Eames knows nothing about this and - coincidentally - investigates the case from the other angle, with Ross not telling either of what is happening. Prick. It looks like he wants the two to kill each other.
Now, I've made my feelings pretty plain about CI episodes that center around Goren or Logan's lives, and I've also made it clear what I think about making Goren and Eames hate each other. These are BAD ideas people. CI is about a brilliant detective investigating crimes which we get to see from the perspective of the criminals. What's so hard about doing that kind of thing?
Eames does bugger all, Goren just mopes about complaining about life and Ross looks like a complete asshead. So seriously is this a good episode?
We're over it. Bring back the original premise.
