Season 16, Episode 2
9/10
Not quite as good as "Part I" but still good television

Warning: Spoilers
"Flaw" is the conclusion to the story that began on "Law & Order" offspring "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" entitled "Design." Both deal with con artist Lorraine Dillon (Lynda Carter) and her daughter April (Estella Warren), both skilled in their work. This chapter begins with the discovery of a man that apparently had some relationship with the two women.

As the story unfolds, Detective Benson (Mariska Hargitay from "SVU") works with L & O's detectives Fontana (Dennis Farina) and Green (Jesse L. Martin) to tie the con women with the death as well as the theft of $500,000.

Like most second installments, it's not quite as engrossing as the first, the former being the "set up," but it's still a good story.

The conclusion is satisfying, leaving the viewer with a desire to see these two women again.

Great support is supplied by Ice-T (also from "SVU"), and guests Ben Shenkman, Daniel Eric Gold, Paul Hecht, and Ami Brabson as the judge.
