Recap / Law & Order: Special Victims Unit S23E15 "Promising Young Gentlemen"

Go To

Carisi and Rollins have dinner with his mother, Serafina (Beverly D'Angelo). His niece, Mia, tells him that her friend was raped. The squad ends up investigating the Bishop Club, a secret society preying on young women.


Tropes

  • Crowd Chant: "Get them out! Get them out!", by the crowd celebrating the permanent closure of the Bishop Club.
  • Digging Yourself Deeper: Invoked by Carisi when one of the suspects goes off on Detective Parlato-Goldstein, accusing him of being a Greedy Jew. Carisi "encourages" him to keep talking so that he can add hate crime charges again.
  • Fiendish Fraternity: The Hudson University frat is so vile that they literally have a song about how raping women and violent misogyny is part of their club's creed.
  • Greedy Jew: Detective Parlato-Goldstein, a former member, goes undercover to gather intelligence. Brad, one of the members, goes off on a tirade directed at the detective:
    Brad Calloway: (to Detective Goldstein) My dad was right, they never should've let Jews join the Bishop Club. What're you getting for this, a building named after you? How many pieces of silver are you getting for this?
    Carisi: You know what, keep talking, I'll put the hate crime charges back on the table.
