This has a very odd plot. I can honestly say that in my seventy odd years of viewing things, I've never seen a show based on the theft of dowries. First of all, imagine the research necessary to find victims. Then the hit and miss of hooking them up with men with whom they connect. The whole thing is beyond absurd. Also, the continuing saga of the elusive mother who is a mystery to her daughter. It doesn't fit what this show always did. This could just as well be an episode of Law and Order SVU. Reddington reconnects with a woman from his past when things were more interesting and becomes involved in some shady land deal. I guess we are still wondering about the fate of the task force, blah, blah, blah!
