WHEN A PROMISCUOUS YOUNG GIRL CLAIMS TO HAVE BEEN RAPED, DETECTIVES BENSON (MARISKA HARGITAY) AND STABLER (CHRIS MELONI) MUST PROVE THAT SHE IS TELLING THE TRUTH.
Soon after a young girl, Laine McAlister (guest star Diora Baird), is raped in her apartment building's stairwell, Detectives Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay) and Eliot Stabler (Chris Meloni) meet Laine in the hospital and find her extremely shaken with a large cut on her hand. After an unpleasant exchange with a man she claims is her boyfriend, the detectives become suspicious that she may have fabricated her rape to get attention. Their suspicions grow when she waits to reveal that there was an eyewitness. As the gravity of the situation intensifies, Benson and Stabler find themselves in a race to track down the witness and get a testimony before it is too late. Also starring: Ice-T (Detective Odafin Tutuola), Richard Belzer (Detective John Munch), Tamara Tunie (Dr. Melinda Warner), and B.D. Wong (Dr. George Huang).

I thought it was a good episode, it had two storylines that flowed together one after the other (Lainey's attention and death to Nagalia? rape story). I also thought that Alex received a good good bye episode.

I also thought that Alex received a good good bye episode. I agree with you 100%. It was a great episode that flowed really well and brought to light a real tragedy in the Congo. I will miss Alex, though.

Question: so that was Alex's 'official' last episode? Or is she coming back a few episodes later sorta thing? And is this new job still in New York?
I'm holding off on telling my sister because she loves the character and she was heartbroken when Stephanie March left a few seasons ago.
I was very intrigued by the story. Alex, in particular, seemed to be much more invested in the case. I always wondered why she chose SVU rather then some other law firm. Know what I mean? What was her reason? We all know Olivia's and Elliot's reason for doing what they do. So What was Alex's? It sucks that that never really came out (no pun intended).

It is her last episode for this season but not officially forever. Sharon Stone will play the new ADA, Jo Marlowe, for the last 4 episodes this season which begins with episode 21 , TORCH. So it appears the next 4 episodes we will once again be in ADA limbo. Supposedly a male ADA will show up and catch Benson's eye.

I absolutely LOVE SVU. But I gotta say, this new season STINKS!!! First, they can't decide on an ADA. Alex goes away, comes back, and now she's going away again. Second, where are the "personal issues" of our main characters? Olivia was responsable for a baby's life in "Savior" (ep. 14), and then simply they forgot to mention what happened...? Did it live or did it die? Either way, it would be a major situation in Olivia's life. And they simply "moved on"...? Anybody agrees with me? Greetings to all from Brazil,
Gabriela
