Law & Order: SVU season 27 episode 8 spoilers: ‘Showdown’

Do you want to know more about Law & Order: SVU season 27 episode 8 on NBC next week? There are a handful of critical things to point out, but let’s go ahead and begin with the following: “Showdown” is the fall finale. By virtue of that, isn’t it extremely fair to say that this installment is more important than most?

So what is at the center of this situation? Well, of course, it is a complicated situation, but one that per the promo, may be a “gone girl” crisis depending on what truly happened. There is a kidnapping that transpired, but was it planned? Is there a larger conspiracy afoot? It feels already like this is going to be one of those episodes where everything from the top down is questions, and we are going to have to wait and see how a lot of that is figured out.

In general, we recognize that the Mariska Hargitay series is the sort that often gives us closure on a lot of its stories within the span of a single hour. By virtue of that, do not be surprised if we get a clear beginning, middle, and end to this case. However, because this is the fall finale, we do recognize that there is a small chance that at least a few more loose ends are left out there to be explored … and you better believe this excites us greatly.
