Storyline

- TriviaWhile undercover in the confessional booth Detective Ruz told the priest she changed the door code to the day of Saint Dwynwen (subtitles incorrectly spell it "Dwynwyn"). Saint Dwynwen, sometimes known as Dwyn or Donwen, is the Welsh patron saint of lovers (and injured animals), she is celebrated in Wales on January 25th. There are few actual historical accounts of Dwynwen, most of what is known about her comes from legend and folktale. Dwynwen was thought to be the daughter of King Brychan Brycheiniog, who ruled Wales in the early to mid 5th-century A.D. Legend says that Dwynwen was in love with a young man named Maelon Dafodrill, but her father refused to grant her hand in marriage to him. Distraught with grief over not being able to be with the man she loved Dwynwen prayed to God for her to fall out of love with him so she wouldn't have to feel the pain of heartbreak and loneliness. An angel of the Lord appeared to her and said God heard her prayer and created a potion that would cause her to fall out of love, but that it would take a sacrifice on her part: she would have to agree to never marry, remain a virgin and live in solitude for the rest of her life. Dwynwen agreed and moved to Ynys Llanddwyn, a small island off the coast of Wales. She built a church on the island, and after she died around 460 A.D. stories spread about a sacred fish appearing in the church's pond whose movements could predict the fate of the relationship of lovers. These stories caused the Church of Dwynwen to became a sacred shrine during the Middle Ages, couples from across Wales would make a pilgrimage to the church on January 25 to see the sacred fish and learn the fate of their relationship. The Protestant Reformation of the 16th-century caused the shrine to become forbidden, as it and the fish were considered to be pagan idols; though by the late 19th-century the church and shrine began to be visited again as a reform in Protestant churches caused local traditions to become no longer forbidden or taboo.
Saint Dwynwen is not officially recognized or commemorated by the Anglican or Catholic Church, however many Anglican and Catholics from Wales still commemorate her on January 25th.
- GoofsBeverly Morrison and Olivia both say that Burton is guilty of rape because when Burton had sex with Beverly she was too intoxicated to consent to sex. Which is technically true, if a person is legally intoxicated (BAL above 0.08%) the law considers them mentally incapacitated and unable to consent to sex, constituting rape in the second degree.
However Burton stated he also was extremely intoxicated, meaning he also legally could not consent to sex, a case such as this is not considered rape. It is only rape in the second degree if one of the persons is intoxicated and the other is sober and of sound mind and takes advantage of the intoxicated person's impaired judgment.

Featured review
Weird, out of character episode
Hey SVU, Olivia Benson really shouldn't be in a friendship with her abuser, and def not go into a room alone with him after he's been credibly accused of rape. But if that's the road you're going down, OK.
Even less logical is the manner in which this show has abandoned all kinds of unfinished arcs, in favor of this rapist redemption arc. The show also ignores all the stuff Benson does on Law & Order Organized Crime, which again makes for very frustrating viewing.
Between the two series' producers have had 60 episodes to address dangling threads. Ffs just get back on track and tell a coherent story that adds up.
Is any longtime viewer really buying the notion that Elliot and Olivia have not had a single substantive conversation in over a year, and after she helped him rescue his son?
SVU's been a rough road lately for the SA survivors who are watching, but holy heck I just want these writers to treat these long time characters with standard logic.
