The “girls disappeared” and so did my ability to follow the plot

SVU Season 16 premiered three nights ago, and I am not sure I would classify it as an episode to remember. Now, as a superfan, there are very few SVU episodes that I give a less-than-five-star review, but “Girls Disappeared” was not a touchdown, per se. Maybe I am still coming off of the rapid-fire excitement that we saw over and over last season, but one thing is for sure: I expected more of the Season 16 opener.
