Lost Girl

The trilogy overall was very well put-together. The start in Miami introduced the ring of prostitution where girls are treated as livestock, New York delved into Madeline Briggs and her struggle to be found. Then Vegas was the final peice to the puzzle sealing off loose ends and eventually bringing the lost girl back to her mother.

The Case: Every mother's worst nightmare. Having a daughter be forced into prostitution and drugs while being trekked around the country would be down right terrifying. Not only do the Pimps of the trade treat their girls like just money makers, but without any love for them it makes it easy to beat and leave them for dead. The creepy russian who spoke to college kids about child molestation and had very sexist views on whores was not the holder of Madeline Briggs. Which I think every woman was hoping for after he called us all greedy, selfish, desperate creatures on the brink of selling ourselves for material purposes. The case quickly turned almost too gruesome and detailed for me to handle. Miscarrying after being beaten in a make-shift whore house and then being traded in a pimp rivalry showdown would be the death of anyones morality. Thus being the reason, when given her freedom, Madeline didnt run straight into her mothers arms. It took some convincing from the Ho-vine (haha Nick) but Madeline showed up bruised but not broken to go back to the way things used to be which will prove itself to be extremely hard.

The Characters: The trilogy was mostly focused on Langston being as he was the head traveler making it to all the spin-off cities. Also he was the head contributor to Madeline's safe arrival home by texting the Ho-vine and then talking her smoothly into going into the crime lab. Nick made me laugh with his whole ho-vine statement it really made the comic relief of the story. I also enjoyed Brass in his hard core interrogation mode which made the hard core pimps and debaucherous proffessors tremble in their boots. By the way Where is Archie? Thats two episodes that Hodges has filled in for him which is weird because how can Hodges even do his job? Characters didnt play a huge role in this episode it was mostly about finding the girl in the big city and getting the bad guys. Traditional crime bust-ring at its best.

Favorite Parts of the Episode:

Ray sent souvenirs: Ray sent souvenirs for everybody....(Hodges and the glasses :) haha)

Brass verbally kills: Interrogation bad ass at its best. If words could only kill......

Russian Creeper: When I start shouting at the TV you know its good TV

The Crime: Though gruesome and violent it was a dose of reality and my heart goes out to all of the people in that garbage dump of a situation.
