SVU #15: Behind Closed Doors

Jul 03, 2007 19:40

In which we have no less than four plots; one for Jessica, one for Elizabeth, one for Winston, and one for Lila. The Jess and Liz plots are about equal in importance, as are the Winston and Lila ones.

Basically the whole book is a big set-up for stuff in #16 and #17, but I summarised it anyway.

I'm so pleased that I found this comm!

Randy Mason, once sixth-grade geek, then sexy mysterious stranger and now Jessica's ex...Three books set on a cruise ship in the Carribean[sic]!

Was it Randy who was the one stalking rescuing her all over the place? I wondered about that for YEARS (never got to read all the books in that trilogy)! I guess it's good to finally get an answer. I take it he just grew up and got hot?

I remember hating Gin-Yung when I was a teenie, during my Liz/Todd OTP phase, but in retrospect she seems like one of the most sensible characters in the entire series.

Great recap!

:D! I was so surprised/pleased when I discovered that it hadn't been taken.

Yes, yes it was! And he did. But Jess dumped him anyway, awww.

I was totally all Liz/Todd OTP but I didn't hate Gin-Yung... she was quite nice ^^ and she is pretty sensible. Sadly she dies of a brain tumour later as I recall :(

zebra curtains, leopard-skin couches, big clay pots with artificial trees... a bearskin rug... in front of the fireplace
Klassy!

Jess points out that she's lived with a guy - Michael McAllery - and she knows it's a big step.
Did Lila never live with the Count? I know he kicked the bucket fairly quickly, but still...

DON'T DO IT WINSTON...
What she said!

It is, isn't it?

That's a very good point and I don't think it's been touched upon. Lila only mentions how much she loves him. Sex/living with a man is not touched upon. Maybe they had separate wings in a mansion or something...

Liz asks to plead Todd's case before the Association, and is given the contact details of a Mr T Clay Santos.
Clay! The provider of PCP! (Unless I'm mistaken, which I likely am.)

Thanks for the recap, and have a lovely day! :-)

Thanks for the info, but I didn't make the link - you'll need to let the mod know, I think ^^

(Ahh, and I needed my SV fix..)
I noticed that after reading #15, the very last page in my book says, "Find out what happens in #16, Deadly Attraction."
Umm, #16 is The Other Woman. #17 is Deadly Attraction.
Let's hear it for misprints!!
Yay!!!!!!

THAT BUGGED ME FOR YEARS. SERIOUSLY. (And I really should have mentioned it in the recap, shouldn't I?)

Oh, no, I didn't mean that you messed up or anything...
I just have been re-reading all of my books and just noticed it the other day...thought I'd say something, since it's obviously a huge error on their part, not ours. Fail to them. :-P
-K.
