Oh, I was hoping you'd like Brown Betty! It was a pretty divisive episode in the fandom, but I floved it, for precisely the same reasons you did. It's actually one of the reasons I tend to love genre shows so much; they're able to take risks, play with the form, do interesting things. A lot of my favorite episodes of all my various shows are in that mold.
The ending of White Tulip just gutted me. I gave up long ago trying to guess where things are going because I suck at it, but that especially surprised me in the most wonderful way.
Wasn't Martha Plimpton just fantastic? It was a lovely, understated performance, and the kind I wish would get recognition when it came to guest acting awards, instead of So and So B-lister is Crazy on SVU.
