!!Tropes:
* CostumeCopycat: The perp [[spoiler: bought a knock-off Police uniform and siren in order to pose as a]] cop to catch his victims.
* HalfwayPlotSwitch: The episode was poised to be about chasing a rape connected to a pharmaceutical scam. When it's discovered that the rape and murder was unrelated to the pharma scam, the plot switches to chasing down that perp.
* IncrediblyObviousTail: Fin and Benson followed the perp to his safehouse and rescue his last victim somehow despite them barely disguising their attempt to follow said perp.
* OutOfFocus: Stabler and Munch, since Fin and Benson are the episode's CharacterFocus. Stabler doesn't even appear, while Munch has a minor plotpoint about having an unknown accident and needing crutches.
* RedHerring: [[spoiler: Marcosi and Graves]] turn out to be this. Fin and Benson's interrogation of the former makes his hesitant to render assistance when he is cleared of suspicion, until he does a HeelRealization and gives Benson information that proved crucial in identifying the actual perp.
* StagingTheEavesdrop: Fin & Benson need to follow the perp to where he stashed the latest victim he kidnapped, so Fin and Benson pretend to discuss the case in a Cop bar (with the perp nearby, eavesdropping) and to trick the perp into going to his safehouse and tailing him there.
