Benson and Rollins must contend with the FBI and the Organized Crime Bureau when a rape victim identifies a dangerous mobster as her assailant.
Tropes
- Broken Pedestal: Benson finds her faith in Stabler shaken yet again when his Organized Crime unit, in sync with the FBI, snatches her suspect away before he can be arraigned and prosecuted. Stabler, for his part, denies knowing that they would do this but Benson barely buys it.
- Call-Back: Carisi mentions that the Feds have taken SVU's cases away before.
- Crossover: Stabler and the Organized Crime Unit, Brewster, Bell, and Maldonado among them, appear in this episode. SVU would rather they didn't, given the circumstances.
