YMMV / Law & Order: Special Victims Unit S8 E10 "Scheherazade"

• Magnificent Bastard: Jake "Judson" Tierney is a career criminal who decades earlier pulled off 21 successful bank robberies with his partner as the "Fedora Bandits", making off with millions of dollar in the process—only found out when he's dying of Cancer in the present day and the priest directs Stabler to him. Tierney hid all of his trappings in a bomb shelter that for years helped him go completely unnoticed—with the trunk key hidden at his wife's grave too, including the body of his sadistic partner which when recovered results in Tierney discovering that when his partner murdered his lover, her ex-husband was wrongly convicted for it. Tierney insists on helping to clear the man's name and holding on until receiving word that he's been set free, during which it comes out that Tierney's daughter Sheila who refused to talk to him for years is actually the daughter of his partner who was almost killed as a baby along with her birth mother, Tierney having killed her real father in order to save her life.
• Retroactive Recognition: John Doman aka Don Carmine Falcone shows up as a Red Herring.
• Unintentionally Unsympathetic: Sheila comes off as this, with how vindictive and spiteful she is towards her father when it's shown that ultimately the worst thing he did was be emotionally distant and while it's understandable for her to be upset how hateful she acts towards him while he's dying makes it comes off as Wangst.
