_

In the criminal justice system,

sexually based offenses

are considered
especially heinous.

In New York City,
the dedicated detectives

who investigate
these vicious felonies

are members of an elite squad

known as the
Special Victims Unit.

These are their stories.

Alvin's spread in
"Vanity Fair" was awesome.

I've had it on my Pinterest
since it came out.

[chuckles] Alvin is the best.

You can change in here, Sally.

[pop music]

Can I call Matt?

He usually likes to be with me.

Alvin doesn't like
boyfriends or managers around.

It keeps it more intimate.

Okay.

[door clicks]

Hello, gorgeous.

Today,

we are gonna make magic.

Are we really doing this?

I have, like, 500 shots
on my phone.

Well, you can text those,
but you need

some that you can frame.

Yeah, plus this light, Rollins,

you can't beat magic hour.

Listen to him.
He gets a camera,

and all of a sudden,
he's a professional.

Hey, you saw those shots
I took of my niece.

All right, you say magic hour,
I say witching hour.

I've got, like, ten minutes.

[bell rings]
Hold on, sweetie, okay?

All right, baby, here we go.

Here we go.
Hold on, sweetie boy.

Hold on. Ready?
Yeah.

Oh, Lou, Lou, that's...

That's incredible.
[camera shutter clicking]

There you go.
Hey, Jesse, right here.

[camera shutter clicking]

That's it.
You know you want it.

Oh, beautiful.
All right.

Gorgeous!

That is hot.

That is sexy.

Move to your right a little bit.
Good, baby, good.

Okay, good, good.

Get down, yeah.

That's it.
Lick your lips.

Wet, I want it wet.

Baby, give it to me!

I love it!

Come on, this down...

Hey, hey, what are you doing?
Don't...

I'm trying to get something.

I'm gonna go change lenses.

Nora!

Get her to chill.

He's intense,
but it's worth it.

I just haven't done shoots
like this before.

Well, you're fresh,

and that's why he's
really responding to you.

If Alvin is into you...

[whispers] Then it's all good.

Give it to me.

Give it to me!

Wait, wait.

Just take it...

[grunting] My little girl.

[moaning]

- [crying]
- [moaning]

[moans]

[ominous music]

That was amazing.

[crying]

That worked.

Did you get all of it?

Oh, good stuff.

Go... go clean her up.

I didn't want him to do that.

That's not what the camera saw.

[crying]

[phone ringing] Whoa!

Yeah. Benson.

A 17-year-old girl?

Okay, is she in
with the nurse now?

Okay, see you
in about 30 minutes.

So much for magic hour.

_

I was in Alvin Gilbert's loft.

He was taking pictures,

and then he asked me
to take off my top,

started touching me,
and then he pushed me

down to the floor.

Okay, and then what happened?

I was begging him.

I said, "Please,
don't do this to me,"

and that's when
he handed the camera

to Nora, his assistant.

Hold up.
His assistant was there?

Okay, did she see the assault?

Yes.

She was taking pictures.

She took pictures of the rape?

- Rape?
- Yes, Sally, rape.

That's what we could be
charging him with.

Charges?

Please, I don't know
if I want to press charges.

My boyfriend, Matt, he doesn't
know that I was there,

and if he finds out,
he will kill me.

[dramatic music]

- sync and corrections by Zac -

How was the training
at Quantico?

I can neither confirm
nor deny I was there.

Okay.

Sorry I left you guys
in the lurch.

We managed.

You caught a case last night?

Yeah, Sally Landry, 17.

She was reluctant
to press charges,

but we convinced her
to come in.

She's an aspiring model.

She is fresh off the bus
from Iowa.

She's here for Fashion Week.

Fashion week... I hate it.

Yeah, me too.
A nonstop gridlock.

Anyway, Sally was raped

by Alvin Gilbert
in his studio yesterday.

Alvin Gilbert
the fashion designer?

No, that's... that's
his older brother, Benno.

Alvin is the bad boy
photographer that does

all their photo shoots,
campaign design.

A real bad boy...
me and Munch

caught that case 12 years ago.

Really, what happened?

Some big-time Italian model

got assaulted during a shoot.

While we were investigating,

she becomes the face
of their new perfume.

- Hmm.
- Case goes away.

I'm not sure this one will.

Sally's green,
she's very upset,

and Alvin's assistant,
Nora Wattan,

may have taken pictures
of the assault.

So the rape kit
did come back positive

for semen, so we're
running it now for DNA.

And Sally's blood
alcohol was high

because Nora was
feeding her drinks.

Do the Gilberts know
that she disclosed?

Oh, I doubt it.

As of last night,
she didn't even want

her boyfriend to know.

Let me do the talking.

[whispers indistinctly]

- Is that her?
- Yep, from that

choke hold that guy's
got on her,

I'm guessing he knows.

Sally.

Hey, how you doing today?

Okay.

This is my boyfriend, Matt.

Lieutenant Benson.

Matt Kroger,

boyfriend and manager.

I warned Sally
about this Gilbert creep.

Uh, okay, Mr. Kroger.

Um...

Right now, we need
to speak with Sally.

That's why I'm here.

Let's do this.

You know what?
She'll be okay.

Why don't you come with me
and Detective Carisi?

Yeah, just come for a minute.
It's fine.

- Okay.
- Talk to us

about this piece of crap.

We're just gonna go
in this room right here.

I had to tell Matt.

When I came home, he could tell
that something was wrong.

And how'd he handle it?

Matt's angry,

not at me,

at Alvin.

Yeah, Sally,
that bruise under your eye,

that... that wasn't there
last night.

Well, um, that must be
from the assault.

But you were worried
about how Matt would react.

No, Matt has been
very understanding.

Okay.

And have you called anyone
from your family?

I don't really
talk to them anymore.

Um, well, Sally,
we have to ask you.

You're new, right,
in the business?

And Alvin's a pretty
famous photographer.

Is there anything
that may have happened

that you didn't want to tell us
or didn't want to tell Matt?

Wait, you guys think
I'm making this up?

I-I-I wouldn't.

Alvin Gilbert raped me.

Just a question, Sally.
We just have to ask.

I discovered Sally in Dubuque,

behind the counter
at Cold Stone Creamery.

I got her pictures.
I made the connects.

I go with her to every gig

until this guy Alvin
cuts me out.

- That's tough.
- No, she's too trusting.

And I've spoken to her
about this.

Be that as it may,

I can't guard her 24-7.

- No, of course not.
- So you know,

Alvin is not gonna
get away with this.

Well, we're gonna do
everything we can...

No, I mean no matter what.

If you don't take care
of him, I will.

[tense music]

And Nora brought you
another drink,

and then Alvin
resumed shooting?

Yeah.

That's when he started to get
really physical with me,

and then he got on top of me,

and I was struggling,
saying, "Wait."

Hold on, and Nora's
still shooting?

Yes.

I was fighting
to get him off of me,

and she just kept saying
how hot I looked.

[knocks]

Uh, excuse me
one moment, Sally.

Hey, you got something?

I ran Matt Kroger
through the system.

Domestic violence,
assault charges.

Why am I not surprised?

Look, I know
we're supposed to take

every Vic's story
at face value,

but what if this gets spun

that Sally consented with
Alvin to help her career?

And she's claiming rape
to avoid a beatdown from Matt?

Yeah.

That's why we need
a controlled meet.

With Alvin?

He just assaulted her.
You think she can handle that?

No.

No, I don't.

_

What happened
in Alvin's studio,

it wasn't right.

Morning-after regret.

Don't.

You're gonna get
a lot of work from this.

Alvin is definitely
gonna use you.

He forced me.

He didn't use a condom.

What are you saying
here, Sally?

I'm worried that
I might be pregnant.

If you are, Alvin
will take care of it.

Is this a shakedown?

- No.
- Because if you're gonna

take on the House of Gilbert,

your career's over.

My career?

What about those photos
that you took?

What happens if those wind up
all over the Internet?

Relax.

They're not even
on the computer.

They're on a separate SD card.

That's enough for a warrant.

Yep, I'll call Barba.

[tense music]

Okay, now put your head down,

and your eyes look
right into the lens,

right into the lens.

Oh, that's sexy.

Is that art or porn?

Depends on how much
you pay for it.

We're in a session.

That's good.
That means Alvin is here.

Wait, you can't just
come in here.

We can get a little
more detail on the dress, Alvin.

Sir.

Excuse me.
We're working here.

SVU.

We're executing
a search warrant

for the Alvin Gilbert studio.

My name is Benno Gilbert.
I'm his brother.

What the hell's going on?

All right, SD cards,

computers, external drives.

Why don't we take five, folks?

What's this about?

A young model claims
that Alvin raped her.

Sally?
That little bitch.

- She's lying.
- Alvin...

Officers, this has to wait.

We're prepping our show.

We have an IPO looming.
These are our investors.

Ma'am, that's none
of our concern.

Claire, please.

Look, we agree
to cooperate fully

if you just let us
finish our work.

She tried to shake down
my assistant.

Okay, is that the camera that
you used to shoot Sally?

Yeah, it's on the list.

Get your hands off my camera.

Do not touch my camera!

- Hey!
- Do not touch...

- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
- Come on.

Hey, hey, hey, Benno!
He's breaking my arm.

He's an artist.
Let him go.

- He's resisting arrest.
- That's not what I'm doing.

All right, let him go.
You're hurting him.

Hey, you need to stop
talking now, or you're

gonna be under arrest
as well, understood?

Yeah.

Let's go.

Benno.

Alvin Gilbert
lawyered up en route.

It's not his first time
at the rodeo.

Nope, there's stories
about him all over town.

The guy preys on young models,
and his brother,

Benno's the fixer.

His assistant Nora facilitated.

She took photos.

TARU's going through
his camera and SD cards.

Uhhuh, I'm surprised
it's gotten this far.

The House of Gilbert,

they're masters
at image control.

[scoffs]

Sally, you know, sweet kid,

but her manager pimp,

well, he controls her,
slaps her around.

Yeah, we've met him.

She's his meal ticket.

He brings her to New York.

He feels her slipping away.

You mean Alvin
had sex with her?

Photographers and girls,
you know,

it happens.

And if the mook boyfriend
finds out...

Girl cries rape?

That's your take?

[chuckles]

My brother dates supermodels.

He doesn't need
to rape a go-see.

Photography is seduction

of the viewer's eye,
of the camera,

and even of me.

She is legal.
We have her license on file.

She signed a release.

My assistant was there
the whole time.

You... you think I'd rape
someone in front of her?

- I do.
- You know what, Sunil?

I don't need this.
No, you don't.

Gentlemen...
Sit down!

- You're in our custody.
- For resisting arrest?

Detective, that is
a lawsuit waiting to happen.

Carisi, hold on.

Let the man tell
his side of the story.

Okay.

Her manager

accosted me at a bar,
showed me her photos,

brought her over to me.

She showed up at my studio
without him.

She knew my work,
and she came ready to play.

"She showed up alone.
She came to play."

They've got their defense.

Where are those photos?

I will ask again.

Alvin and the girl
just clicked.

Okay, that's not how
Sally's describing it.

Now, because she wants
something from this family.

Alvin was just responding
to what she was putting out,

what she wanted from him.

Sally didn't want
what he did to her.

Not what I saw.

I saw a girl who knew
what she was doing.

Well, I think you knew
what you were doing.

Getting an underage girl drunk.

Really?

Do you know what these girls
put in their systems?

This woman sets up models
to be raped.

What, does she get off
on watching?

- Pictures are in.
- Finally.

[tense music]

- Ugh.
- She looks terrified.

Or they'll say
that's the campaign.

"When fear becomes obsession."
Seriously?

I have to tell you
about rape culture?

That's not an ad campaign;
that's a girl being assaulted.

Look, Barba's right.

They're just gonna claim
that this was staged.

[sighing]

Is this enough to arrest?

I'd like more,
but if we don't indict,

he hops on a jet to France,
doesn't come back till

- Sally gets paid off.
- Right.

[tapping]

How about we book Nora too?

Nora Wattan, stand up.

You're under arrest.

Me?

Because I gave a girl a drink?

For starters.
Turn around.

And you facilitated
her assault.

In New York,
that's rape in the first.

[gasps]

_

Alvin Gilbert,
one count of first-degree...

That's "Jill-bare,"
Your Honor.

Either way.

One count
of first-degree rape,

how do you plead?

- Not guilty, Your Honor.
- People on bail?

Remand.
Mr. Gilbert has a family jet

and, uh, residences
in five countries.

My client has no record
and is the editorial director

of a fashion empire.

His family's business

would be seriously jeopardized

if he had to cancel
any bookings, Your Honor.

I'm sure they have
the means to get by.

Given his resources,

the defendant
will surrender his passport.

Bail is set at $500,000.
[gavel bangs]

500 grand.

That's good.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Next case,

"People versus Nora Wattan."

Are you representing her
as well, Mr. Varma?

For the moment, Your Honor.

We are arranging
for separate counsel

for Miss Wattan.

A wise decision,

and hopefully,
the appropriate person

will be retained...

[speaking indistinctly]

I'd like to move along.

This is a complicated
case, Your Honor.

[tense music]

They've got 120 hours
to indict.

Get me more for the grand jury.

Fin's trying to
track down the model

that accused Alvin
12 years ago.

Tell Fin to hurry it up.

How about we go back to Nora?

I mean, the Gilberts
aren't even pretending

to be worried about her.

Yeah.

Counselor,

have you found separate counsel
yet for Miss Wattan?

I have my hands full.

Uhhuh, empty them.

I need a word with her.

Sorry we're late.

And you are?

Jason Gruber.

And you've passed the bar exam?

Mr. Varma and I have
worked closely on several cases,

and he led me to believe
you wanted to discuss a deal?

- We do.
- Good, because clearly,

the charges against my client

are an overreach.

Okay, if Miss Wattan

will testify about
Alvin's assault,

we can talk about withdrawing
her rape charge.

That was not an assault.

That was a creative
collaboration...

fear, lust, release,
capturing primal emotions.

Okay, I get it.

- You've been Alvin's muse.
- She's his associate.

But you're not seeing him
for who he is.

Don't patronize me.

Alvin is a genius.

I would never betray him,

and neither will any model
in this city.

Well, I hope you're right,

'cause we're gonna be
talking to all of them.

The first time with Alvin?

Paris.

He propositioned you?

Alvin doesn't ask.

He takes.

Did you want
to have sex with him?

No, but Alvin did.

- Did you say no?
- [scoffs]

Nobody says no
to Alvin Gilbert.

I mean, he didn't hold
a gun on me.

Actually, he did.

He held a gun on you?

I don't think it was loaded.

Would you be willing
to testify?

Against Alvin?

No.
I would never work again.

Wait, he told you that?

[scoffs] He doesn't have to.

I'm sorry.

That was fast.

At least she came in.
These others...

Munch came through.

He found Alvin's Vic
from 12 years ago.

She changed her name
and owns a modeling agency.

She sends girls to Alvin.

_

You two, huh?

Why bring up something
that happened 12 years ago?

Because it happened again,
three days ago.

[sighs]

And you're the ones
going after Alvin?

[upbeat music]

That girl,
she's not so innocent,

and she was not one of mine.

But you've sent him
other girls.

This is a business.

Alvin's the best.
He's a career maker.

A girl becomes Alvin's muse,
every door is open.

Muse?

You tried to kill yourself.

Oh, yeah, poor me.

I was a gamine,
so young, so naive,

18, posing half naked
for a man twice my age.

I knew I was turning him on.

When he started to touch me

I could've walked away,
but I didn't.

What did I think
was gonna happen?

Three days,
two dozen interviews.

At least half of these
models admit

to being pressured into sex.

None of them will testify.

But what about the Vic
from 12 years ago?

That story has a happy ending.

She's pimping for him now.

No one wants to bite
the hand that made them.

The clock is running out.

Grand jury's tomorrow,
9:00 a.m.

- Take another run at Nora?
- Not a chance.

She thinks she's
part of the family.

Okay, so all we have is Sally.

Prep her.

Make sure she's good to go.

_

So you just tell
the grand jurors

the details of what
Alvin did to you.

There's no cross-examination.

Is Mr. Barba
gonna show everyone

the photos that Nora took?

I'm sorry...
[door rattles open]

What the hell
are you doing here?

Take it easy, man.

We're here on police business.

We're prepping Sally
for her testimony.

Oh, okay.

I didn't see you.

Sally, you didn't tell me.

Well, you were gone
for three hours.

I was at the gym.

I told you that.

[sighs]

Well...
[grunts]

I'm here now.

Tell me what she's
gonna have to do.

She's late.
Was she okay when you left her?

Uh, yeah, I mean,
Matt the manager

was draped all over her,
but she was steady on her story.

There she is.
Sally.

Hey.

Grand jury's waiting.
Shall we?

Great, Matt, you can
wait here; let's go.

Actually,
I'm not going to testify.

I'm sorry?

After you left,
I-I kept thinking

about those photos,

total strangers seeing them
and people back home too.

Alvin is famous.

You don't understand.

Once it's all over
the Internet...

No one will see them.

These proceedings are secret,
and you're a minor.

Yeah, right, those
photos will get out.

It's like what happened
with Erin Andrews.

Matt, wouldn't you be pissed
if Alvin got away with this?

If it was up to me,
I'd put a slug in the guy.

Be that as it may,

this is what Sally wants.

Right, babe?

[tense music]

Sally,

please don't do this.

We're screwed.
No continuance.

If the grand jury doesn't indict
by 5:00 tomorrow, Alvin's bail

automatically reduces to $1.

He won't stick around.

Passport or not,
he'll find a way out.

Does anyone actually believe

Sally is the one
making this decision?

Matt's obviously
pulling her strings.

Sally is his meal ticket.

The Gilberts must've made Sally

an offer that Matt
couldn't refuse.

Witness tampering?
That's tough to prove.

Well, unless you have
a better idea, that's all I got.

Sorry, detectives.

Witness tampering?

I've had zero contact
with Sally Landry.

Sonya!

That hem is pulling out.

What about her manager, Matt?

Uh, he did come to see me
yesterday.

He didn't tell you?

Maybe that's because he pulled
a gun on me and Alvin.

What'd he want?

$50,000.

In exchange for Sally
not testifying?

Benno!

The beer is warm out here...

Go start without me.

[electronic music]

You guys come here
to apologize?

Why, because Benno
paid off Sally's manager?

There was no quid pro quo.

All right, he pitched
a couple of lame-ass

editorial ideas.

I pretended to like them,

and I gave him some seed money.

He pulls a gun.

You write a check,
and you didn't call the police?

Look, I'm a businessman,
all right?

We're about to go public.

My brother is 100% innocent.

How about 1,000%?

So if I can make this
go away...

All right, I'm not lawyer, but
it sounds like you're admitting

to paying off a witness.

I did this to help Sally.

I thought that if this

cheap suit Svengali
got a taste,

maybe he'd leave
the poor girl alone.

You saw her bruises.

This boyfriend,
he's the one who rapes her.

When I simulated violence,

she got off on it.

Oh, Alvin.

- Benno...
- Please.

Benno, stop worrying.

Lighten up, okay?

Did I come with a gun?

Did I come with a gun?
Did I come with a gun?

Is that what they told you?

Matt, they have witnesses.

The gun was part of my pitch.

Okay, so just calm down.

What... what pitch?

Okay?

Alvin likes guns.

You seen the series
with the girls

sucking on gun barrels?

They hired me
to consult editorially.

For 50 grand?

And you're telling me
that had nothing to do

with Sally
dropping the charges?

- Nothing?
- Tell them. Tell them.

Tell them how I'm protecting
your career.

He is.

I testify, and I'm back

at the creamery
making Fudge-Anas.

And that's not gonna
happen to my baby.

[phone ringing]

Yeah?

She'll be there.

And you put me
on the list, right?

[tense music]

Guess who's closing the
Gilbert runway show tomorrow.

Oh, my gosh!

- Aw.
- Really?

Wait, will Alvin be there?

Don't worry, baby.

I won't let you
out of my sight.

Can I ask who just called
to make that booking?

Was it Nora?

Nora?
No, Nora's gone.

Claire, Benno's wife,
she's running the show now.

If you'll excuse us, my baby
needs her beauty rest.

Mm?

_

Yes, Claire is taking over

booking Alvin's models.
It's just temporary.

So you're not involved
in tomorrow's fashion show?

All on the advice of counsel.

Alvin's or yours, Nora?

Oh, right, yours is paid for
by his family.

When there's no case,
there's no case.

Well, actually...

Nora has admitted to serving
Sally, a minor, drinks.

- Oh, please.
- And what should be more

troubling to her legal team,
Nora has admitted

to taking photos of Sally
having sex with Alvin.

Consensual sex.

She's 17, and while New York

may not be able
to press charges,

according to the Feds, that
constitutes child pornography.

- Is that true?
- He knows it is.

Punishable by five years
for each image.

It's just a tactic, Nora.

A tactic?

Nora, the Gilberts gave Matt

$50,000 to "consult."

Sally is in the runway show.
What have they done for you?

Nora, when is the last time
you spoke with Alvin?

He is taking your calls,
isn't he?

There's been no contact
on advice of counsel.

Oh, come on.

Since when does Alvin
listen to anybody?

You think he'll visit you
in prison?

Or maybe do a spread,
Models Behind Bars?

That's it. We're done.
Nora, let's go.

You know Alvin better
than anybody, right?

He's always on to the next,

on to the next look,
on to the next model.

You may feel different,

but you know he'll
find a new muse.

You don't understand
what we have.

I think that I do.

He's gonna tell you that
he's sorry and that he feels

bad and that he loves you

but he had no choice.

You've heard that
before, right?

Alvin, this is the first time
he's been arrested.

The Gilberts protect their own.

You're not his wife.

You're not his family.

You're the hired help.

[tense music]

Copy that, lieutenant.

Nice job.

Liv says Barba amended
the arrest warrant,

added ten charges of rape.

Turns out Nora kept videos.

So we pick up Alvin ASAP.

You know, if Nora turned

in front of the lawyer
they supplied her,

the Gilberts have
to know about it.

You think Alvin's even here?

Yeah, big show, corporate IPO,

models... he's here.

They probably have the jet
warming up on the tarmac.

Let's move.

She is their top model,
and I am her manager.

I don't care who you are.

Yo, how many times I got
to tell you I'm on the list?

- No, you're not.
- Hey, Matt.

What's going on?

This moron won't let me in.

You're gonna lose your job
over this.

NYPD.

Is there a problem, officer?

Yeah, is Alvin Gilbert here?

- Yeah, he's inside.
- Thank you.

You tell Benno Gilbert
to come here now!

Get him here!

Hey, Matt, take it easy,
all right?

Screw you!
Screw all you!

You tell Benno and Alvin
I am coming back for them!

[camera shutters clicking]

[mid-tempo music]

Hey, any luck with Alvin?

I haven't seen him,
Benno, or Claire.

- Okay, Fin, go out front.
- Copy.

Rollins, Carisi, take
the dressing room areas.

I'll hang backstage.

Anyone seen Alvin Gilbert?

Gorgeous.

Hey, excuse me, ladies.

Eva.

Detectives.

Yeah, have you seen Alvin?

Not since he stuck
his hand up my dress.

Eva, got to go.

- I'll check upstairs.
- All right.

No eyes on Alvin yet.

Not out here either.

I got his brother.
Hey, Benno.

Why are you here?

Sally, go.

Security didn't tell you?

Your lawyer didn't call?

And go, go, go.

- Where is he?
- Alvin?

You tell me.

I'm not my brother's keeper.

[camera shutters clicking]

Benno, you're on in 20 seconds.

- Where's Alvin?
- I don't know.

He's not out there?

When's the last time
you saw him?

I-I don't know.

Benno, focus.

[applause]

Okay, go now.

[cheers and applause]

[cheers and applause]

I got Claire and Benno,

no Alvin.

No one's seen him.

He's not here.

The guy disappeared.

Alvin!
Oh, my God!

It came from out back.

[dramatic music]

Hey, what happened?
Oh, my God.

I came out for a smoke.

I saw Alvin lying there.

He's gone.

[sighs]

[siren wailing]

What the hell happened?

Maria Carla,
the booker, found him.

One shot to the groin.
One shot to the chest.

Any chance she did it?

No, her screams were real.

The body was still warm.

The blood hadn't congealed yet.

This must've happened
in the last half hour.

No phone or wallet
or gun recovered yet,

but we're searching the area.

Okay, get TARU
tracking the phone...

and that camera above the door.

Everybody still inside?

Yeah, Fin and Rollins are
keeping the place locked down.

[tense music]

[indistinct radio chatter]

Who would do something
like this?

- You tell me.
- I know exactly who.

You do? Who?

That boyfriend of Sally's,
Matt.

He made threats.

He was at the door
when we first came in.

He was pissed that
he wasn't on the list.

Was his name supposed
to be on the list?

He was.

He must've called me
nine times,

but I didn't want to risk it

because Sally was
closing the show.

I...

I should've just let him in.

Is it true
what everyone is saying?

Alvin was shot?

Yeah, he was,

and your boyfriend
was making threats,

and he owns a gun.

- Oh, my God.
- You need to call him.

Make an excuse,
but find out where he is.

Listen, if he didn't do this,
this all goes away.

So I lost my temper
at the runway show.

Those bastards kept me
off the list.

We could see you were pissed.

Hells yeah, I was.

Sally needed me.

What are they
accusing me of now?

Yelling at that jamoke
security guard?

It's a little bit more
serious than that, Matt.

Alvin's dead.

Somebody gunned him down.

Wait, you...

you guys don't think
that I did it?

"I'm gonna put a slug
in that guy."

That sound familiar?

I didn't even bring my gun
to the show.

I left it back home.

That's where I was heading
when you guys picked me up,

to get my gun
to go back to the show

so that I could scare the crap
out of those SOBs.

That's his alibi?
[phone ringing]

Rollins and Carisi
are searching his apartment.

Benson.

Yeah.

Okay, thanks.

Well, it turns out
that Alvin's phone

and wallet were in a drawer
in his office.

So not a robbery.

He was shot once in the chest,
once in the groin?

Well, the M.E.
thought that

the shot in the groin
was first.

Of course it was.

Somebody wanted Alvin
to have a couple seconds

to think about who shot him
and what his life

would be like
without his pecker.

[phone ringing]

Vonnegut?

"Slaughterhouse-Five."

- Benson.
- We found Matt's gun.

9-millimeter Beretta.

Yeah, I don't even think
this has been fired, no.

This isn't even operable.

Have you ever seen him
with a different gun?

No, just that one.

He sleeps with it
under his pillow.

Does that mean he didn't do it?

Look, please, please do not
let him know I led you to him.

[tense music]

No GSR on Matt's hand.

Wrong gun.
So we just let him go?

No, not until I talk to Sally.

Maybe get an OOP for her.

You're worried about
what he might do?

Oh, I know what he'll do.

Then I'll hold him
on the gun charge,

make sure he does time on that.

- Thank you.
- Yeah.

I got security footage

from the courtyard.

Shooter knew
where the camera was,

so he stays out of view.

Back up.

Pause it.

Right there when Alvin
turns around,

the look on his face
when he sees the shooter.

He knows him.
[cell phone chimes]

He's not afraid of him.

Uni found a gun on the roof,

a .357 Magnum.

.357?
That's old-school.

Yeah, it is,

just like Alvin's.

What? Alvin was shot
with his own gun?

Maybe.

By someone he knew.

By someone he was happy to see.

We got this all wrong.

It's not the guy who was
shaking Alvin down.

It's the guy who's been
cleaning up his messes.

Thank you so much
for coming in.

Right this way.

Yeah, let's hope, uh...

we heard you arrested Matt.

We did, and, um,

we just wanted to go over
the timeline with you.

Anything we can do.

So we got this
from a model backstage.

This is Alvin halfway
through the show.

Yeah, I saw him there.

Yeah, uh, same spot

five minutes later,
Claire is there.

Alvin's gone.

Alvin always went out
for a smoke halfway through.

And where were you

at this point, Benno?

I am everywhere,

um, checking on the hair
and the clothes and the makeup.

I mean, I'm just making sure
everything's going right.

Sounds like a lot of pressure.

He's the best
in the world at it.

And on top of that,
you have to worry

about your little brother
getting arrested

for multiple counts of rape.

Alvin was not a rapist.

You mean he was never convicted

because every time

he was accused, you just
made it go away.

Alvin's dead.
Matt killed him.

Why are we talking
about any of this?

Because Matt
wasn't the shooter.

It wasn't his gun.

Alvin was shot
with his own gun.

So Matt stole it
from the studio.

No.

He would've had gunshot
residue on his hands.

We picked him up
right afterwards,

and there's...
there was no residue, no GSR.

I mean, you fire a gun
like that, and it gets

all over everything, you know,

everything you touch.

So, if, say,
you shot your brother

and then five minutes later
you hugged Sally,

we would find gunshot residue
on that dress.

So CSU's going
to pick up that dress

right now from your atelier.

You can't think
my husband did this.

Yeah, I can.

[tense music]

You see,
I have a younger brother.

He's been in and out of rehab
so many times,

I've lost count.

And every time that
he gets in trouble,

he tells the cops,
"Call my brother.

He's on the job.
He'll take care of it."

And then when I go pick him up,

he says, "Promise me
you won't tell Dad."

[chuckles]

He's my brother,

and I love him.

But I can't tell you
how much easier

my life would be without him.

Alvin getting arrested,

Alvin going to trial

right when your company
was about to go public...

- We would've lost everything.
- Stop, Benno.

You are going to find
gunshot residue

on the dress from my hands.

- No, Claire, no!
- I shot him, Benno.

I couldn't let him
take you... us down.

No, stop it. Shut up.
Stop it right now.

Shut up.
She's lying.

- I shot him.
- No, you didn't. I did.

And we're not gonna say
another word about it

until our lawyer comes.

Their lawyers say they
were never Mirandized.

Were they in custody?

Nope, they came in voluntarily.

Okay, that goes away.

Bigger problem:
they both confessed.

Which means each one
has created

reasonable doubt for the other.

Onion Field meets
Fashion Avenue.

The question is, who's lying?

She is. He did it.

That look on Alvin's face
right before

he got shot...

I know that look.

So that story you told Benno
about your brother...

It wasn't a story.

[door clicks and rattles]

Hey, Noah.

Hey, sweet boy, Mommy's home.

Thanks, John.

You finally got Benno
to take a plea.

Worth the wait.
Brother killing brother,

I didn't see that coming.

Well, Dodds did.

Dodds, the new, new guy?

Yeah.

Fin told me you got
a good squad working for you.

[sighs] Fin said what?

I was worried when I left

that I'd fall apart
without the job

or the place would
fall apart without me.

Well, I was too.

Oh, yeah, but it's been good.

Turns out there's more
to life than SVU.

Hmm, ain't that the truth?

Well, I'm glad
we both found that out.

[gentle piano music]

Had a great time
with him today.

Taught him a major life lesson.

Always question authority.

Ah, what a surprise.

How was that?

Noah, show Mommy.

Say, "Why?"

- Why?
- Ah!

[both laughing]

You can thank me when
he's a fully functioning,

anti-dogmatic atheist.

[laughing] I'll do that.

- I should get going.
- Okay.

Bye, little man.

[exhales]

Take care of each other.

[whispering] We will.
You too.

Say, "Bye, Munch."

[whispers] Bye, Munch.

Hmm. Yeah.

Bye.
