13* ArsonMurderAndJaywalking: Almost literally. The detectives are trying to find something to arrest Gregory Seale for before he can flee the country. At the last possible second, when it seems that the detectives can't get him for anything, Seale jaywalks at the airport, giving Detective Stabler an excuse to arrest him. This allows them to hold him long enough to pull together the evidence to arrest him on his more serious crimes.
14* DateMyAvatar: More like "become obsessed with my avatar and abduct the actual me".
15* DirtyOldMan: Julian Cooper is one; he looks to be in his sixties and his victim is 21. Not only that, but he's [[{{Ephebophile}} basically pretending she's a teenager]]. He's a particularly destructive version of this trope, as his victim dies as a result of the drugs given to her.
16* OnlineAlias: The episode features two women who use "Tawny Coppercuffs" and "Vixy Platinum" as their usernames on the VideoGame/SecondLife {{Expy}} "Another Youniverse."
17* {{Sleepwalking}}: Dan suffers from Sexsomnia. Which causes him to try and have sex while he's asleep. His girlfriend, Rachel knows about this and accommodates him, but after she's kidnapped, he tries to get it with her sister, Kristi without knowing. When awake he's horrified at what he tried to do, and when it's proven he has no awareness in this state he's cleared of the charges.
