- 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.

- Okay.

- Mommy, Mommy, do another one.

- Put butter on it.
- And syrup.

- That would make
too big of a mess.

But listen,
remember what I said,

not a word to Daddy.
Not a word, right?

- Okay.
- Not a word.

Not a word.
- I promise.

- Sounds like you guys
are having

way too much fun, huh?
- Oh.

- Hi, buddy.

- Mommy hid the extra pancake
in your briefcase.

- She did, did she?
She did, huh?

Today, of all the days.

- Probably still warm
if you want it.

- Mmm.

- [chuckles]

Hey, Magda's gonna be here
in a minute.

You got time for coffee?
- Listen, I would love to,

but the Bouchard case is over.

I got a mountain of casework
I gotta tackle.

It's just a busy day.
- Yeah, me too.

[doorbell rings]

Oh, girls, Magda's here.

Go get your bags.
- Here you go.

- Here, baby.
- Go to your mom.

- Come here, baby.
- There you go.

All right, come on, girls.

Let's go, let's go, let's go.

- Hello.
- Hi, guys.

- Hey, Magda. How are you?
- Hi, Amanda.

- Oh, here's your
water bottle, honey.

- Jesse, you got your inhaler?
- Yeah.

You still gonna pick us up
today, Daddy?

- Yeah, of course.

Mommy deserves
a real first day off.

Right?
- I'll take care of him.

- Thank you.
- All right.

- Bye, girls.
- Bye.

- Bye.
- Bye. Thank you.

- [sighs]

- You okay?
- Yeah.

It's just that this weekend
was a vacation.

- Because you didn't have
papers to grade?

- No, with you and the kids.

- Let me ask you something,

and, uh, I want you
to be honest with me.

- Okay, Counselor.

- How long
after I walk out this door

is it gonna take for you
to start freaking out?

- I've only been unemployed
for--

I mean, since Friday.
- Uh-huh.

- And I was bored
being a professor.

- How do you think you're
gonna feel being alone all day?

- Oh, just in
the deafening silence,

surrounded by
my own life choices?

Pretty good.

[soft music]

- Listen, worst comes to worst,

I could always get you a job
as an investigator

in the DA's office.

- Oh, the DA's office,
working with you,

so we can be together
all day and all night?

Huh?

- Thanks for the pancakes.

- Maybe.

- Why is this an SVU thing?

- Well, according to the unis,
she's locked herself in a room

- Okay. I'll take it, Bruno.
Thanks.

locks herself in a room?

Excuse me.

Where can I find the bride?

what happened?

- I was raped last night
after the rehearsal dinner.

this assault happen?

- At my parents' house.

My bridesmaids and I
were planning

to get ready there
in the morning,

and then,
at 3:00 in the morning,

I feel someone
climb into bed with me.

He put his hand over my mouth.

how he got in?

to check it for residual DNA.

And your nightgown
that you wore last night

during your attack--
- He took it.

- He took it?

- Along with the bedding
and the pillow cases.

He threw them out the window
right before he left,

they were gone.

- Okay.

- How long does this
usually take to see

if his DNA is still on my body?

- A few hours.

- It's not like
I have anywhere else to be.

the story straight,

was Black?

see his face.

He was behind me.
- Okay.

Does anything else

Did he say anything?

- After he was finished,
he said,

your hands, either one.

I'll need to take your rings.

They'll swab

♪

- The vic got raped last night

and didn't report it
till today?

- She had 200 people
coming to her wedding.

She was probably
on automatic pilot

trying to go through with it.
I mean, all that planning?

- Maybe it was
a revenge type thing,

you know, jealous ex?

- She said
that it was a stranger.

The guy came in
through the guest room window

at the parents' townhouse.
- What about the groom?

He have any involvement?

- He seemed
genuinely shocked to me.

- He could have enemies.

- Well, if he did,
he hasn't mentioned them yet.

- I'll see
what I can get out of him.

What about our professor?
How's she doing?

- She's--she's with the vic.

It's like
she never missed a beat.

Oh, but if she does wanna help
out with this case,

we probably need
to check the paperwork

that she filed on the way out.

- You think it's possible
she could actually

still be a cop?
- It's NYPD, Finn.

- I get it.

I'll have Curry
make some calls.

- Okay.
[phone buzzes]

Hey.

- Relatives keep calling
and texting me.

I don't know what to tell them.
I said my vows.

I put on a ring.
Are we even married yet?

- Let's figure that out later.

- Why wouldn't Jenna
tell me what happened?

- My guess is,
she was trying to protect you.

- What, like I would blame her?

- Any reason
she would think that?

- No.

I don't blame her,

but I'm allowed to be,
like, angry, right?

- Yeah,
a sexual assault like this

is bound to bring up emotions
you didn't even know

you had in you.
- I'm not worried about me.

I'm worried about my wife.

What if this guy
is still out there,

some kind of stalker?

- You have any idea of someone
who would wanna hurt her?

- What, like a--
like an ex-boyfriend?

I can make a list
if that's helpful.

I just need
to check her computer.

We share all of our passwords.
- Okay. You two live together?

- Yeah, why?

- Well, Jenna spent last night
at her parents' house.

- Yeah, we were trying
to be traditional

for one night, at least.

- Anyone knew
she was staying there?

- Our families,
the wedding party.

- Okay, I'll need
that list too.

What'd you do last night?

- Uh, we had
the rehearsal dinner.

People got a little drunk,
made funny speeches.

- Were any of your groomsmen
a little touchy with Jenna?

- No.

No, we were so happy.

Jenna was so happy.

We kept looking
at each other like,

how could we get so lucky?

Who would wanna ruin that?

- We were all having fun.

No fights or drama.

Nobody threw a drink
like at my rehearsal dinner.

- Sounds like a good time.

- Did you notice
any of the male guests

paying special attention
to Jenna?

- Brides are supposed
to be the center of attention.

- What about the waitstaff,
bartenders?

- Didn't get a creep vibe
from anybody.

And I'm pretty
on point with that.

- What about this morning?

- Looking back on it,
Jenna was a little removed.

- Removed how?

- When we were getting ready
to go to the church,

collecting the flowers
and all the last-minute stuff

from her parents' place
to bring with us,

I asked her why
the bed was stripped,

and she had
almost no expression.

I just chalked it up
to her mom being anal

about laundry
and a case of last-minute

pre-wedding jitters.

- Jenna walked up the aisle.

She was smiling
like nothing was wrong.

- Were you at the
rehearsal dinner last night?

- Yeah, it was fun. Why?

- Did you notice
if any of the male guests

were a little jealous
that she was getting married?

- I was pretty wasted.

- Anyone seem angry or upset?

- Look, every guy there
has known Phillip

since high school.

The only thing
any of us are jealous of?

They both found
the love of their lives.

Some of us aren't so lucky.

- Do you know how Jenna
got to her parents' house?

- Phil drove her.

I bet he's kicking himself now
for not staying the night.

- So the only people that knew

that Jenna was staying
at her parents'

were her family
and the wedding party?

- No signs of forced entry.

- Jenna said she opened
the window to let in fresh air.

- It's a quiet street.
We canvassed the neighbors.

Nobody saw or heard anything.

We're still checking
traffic cams,

but so far, no matches
to the man Jenna described.

- Forensics?
- No fingerprints anywhere,

but that doesn't mean anything.
The guy could have worn gloves.

- Yeah, still waiting
on DNA from the rape kit.

- And there was nothing missing
from her house?

- No, this wasn't a burglary.

- So no other obvious motives?

- Well, other than
the fact that it was

the night before her wedding.

- Which could be
totally random.

- This doesn't seem
like a crime of opportunity.

- So talk to me, Rollins.

- So what he said
was so specific.

"You're gonna remember me."

It's like he wanted to mark her
for the rest of her marriage.

- You think this guy knew
she was getting married?

- Jenna seemed to think so.

- Whoever he was,
he was certainly paranoid

about leaving DNA behind.
[phone dings]

So are we sure that nobody
had a grudge against her?

- We talked to everyone.

No angry exes,
no jealous girlfriends.

- So let's start by checking
with wedding vendors.

- DNA came back
from Jenna's rape kit.

- And?

- It's a match to the DNA
to an unsolved assault

in Brooklyn six months ago.

The rape happened the night
before the vic's wedding,

no suspects.

- It's not random.

- So we are looking
for a serial rapist

who targets brides.

- Prima nocta,
droit de seigneur.

- English, professor?

- It's a medieval rite.

The lord of the castle
can sleep with

any woman under his rule
on the night of her wedding.

- Except the guy
we're looking for

doesn't exactly sound
like a prince.

.

- I'm an ER nurse.

I have experience
with rape victims.

I never fully understood
why they didn't fight back

or scream until now.

- You protected yourself.

So your assault happened
the night before your wedding.

- I was staying at my
sister's place in Park Slope.

- Who else knew
that you were staying there?

- Family, friends,
wedding party,

a few vendors who delivered
last-minute supplies.

Our wedding was pretty DIY.

- You said in
your initial police report

that he was Black
and of average height.

- Yes.
He was on the heavier side.

- Is there anything else
that you remember?

- As soon as he was done
and about to leave,

he doubled back,
stripped the bedding,

took my nightgown,
even the pillowcases.

- You did a good job preserving
what little evidence

you had on yourself.

- And your rape kit may be
the only way of solving this.

- So he's still out there
doing this to other women?

- Yeah, and we actually believe

that he's targeting
brides-to-be.

- There's one other detail

I didn't tell the police
or my husband.

- And what is that?

- On his way out, he said,

"You're going to remember me."

Please don't tell Dean.

He was wonderful,
so supportive,

but it's taken us a long time
to get past this as a couple.

[somber music]

- Darcy Hamlin,
her husband, Dean.

- Darcy's assault matches
the general pattern of Jenna's.

- Yeah, that and a DNA match.

And he said the same phrase
to both women.

- We know we're looking
at the same perp.

- Somebody who wants
to leave his mark.

- All right,
so how do we catch this guy?

- What do these couples have
in common beside a wedding?

- So far, nothing--

where they work live, grew up,

went to school,
no mutual friends.

- Still checking vendors,
but so far, no overlap.

- See if any of them
were on the sex registry.

- I can do that.

- Well, actually,
you and I have

someplace to be right now.

- Where? Doing what?

- Think of it as a date.

- [chuckles]

[gunshots]

- So is this the department
making me requalify

or you, Finn?

- You want your gun back
to work this case or not?

[gunshots]

I guess you do.

And after this case?

- Listen, I've been unemployed
for one day.

I wouldn't read
too much into it.

- Forgive me for asking.

- The thing is,
brides are being raped.

I know what it's like
to be one.

I know what it's like
to be in love.

- Speaking of which,
have you litigated all this

with the counselor yet?

- I'll tell him tonight.

- Marriage is all about
little white lies

of omission, isn't it?

- Enough about me.

How's unmarried life?

- Phoebe and I have
never been happier.

I highly recommend it.
- [laughs]

[gunshots]

- So I ran open rape cases
in the last five years

with no DNA on file.

None of the attacks happened
on the night before a wedding.

- This guy obviously knows
these vics

are less likely to report.

- Well, I mean,
weddings are a big deal.

If I ever made it that far,

I'd think twice
before calling it off.

- Captain Curry, some detective

from uptown is here to see you.

- How can we help you?

- You know, they say gossip
travels at the speed of sound.

My girlfriend
works at a DNA lab.

- Must be convenient
for rush jobs.

- Well, we're getting married
next month,

and she's freaked out.

DNA match between cases,
a pattern rapist of brides.

- And you came to us because
your girlfriend's freaked out?

- About a year ago,
I go on a call--

a woman that was
getting married that night

at the Park Milano Hotel.

- What'd this woman say?

- She asked
what would it entail

if she was to report a rape.

- And?
- And I walked her through it.

And I guess
she changed her mind.

She said nothing happened,

and she was sorry
for wasting my time.

.

- Is there anything at all,
anything that connects

Jenna and Darcy's cases?

- They both used
totally different vendors.

No registered
sex offenders worked

for either of the companies.

- The only common denominator
is, the attack

happened the night
before the wedding.

- And the perp knew
that the bride-to-be

would be sleeping alone.
- And where.

- Yeah, like
Breena Richards' case.

Somehow he knew
what hotel she'd be at.

He was so happy

you remember that you can share

with us, we'd be so grateful.

- How did he get
into your hotel room?

- Frank and I stayed
in separate rooms,

you know, tradition.

I heard a knock.

I thought it was Frank,
that he couldn't spend

the night apart.

I opened the door,

just pushed his way in.

- Did he say anything?

- He said,
"You're gonna remember me."

Then he put the bedding
in a bag he brought with him,

not that I could sleep
that night anyway.

the next morning?

- I thought it was
the responsible thing to do.

And then the officer
explained to me

that I would have to go
to the hospital,

that I'd have
to give a statement,

and that it could take hours.

abundantly clear

that she will not
be cooperating with us

because she doesn't
wanna break up her marriage.

- In that case,
my wife is right.

I mean, if you don't have
probable cause for an arrest,

then getting a court order
for DNA is a non-starter.

- So how do we get this guy?
- Well, his first assault--

- As far as we know.

- Okay, Counselor,
you're right,

as far as we know.

Breena, she shopped for flowers

at the same wholesaler
where Leon works.

- It's how she recognized him.

- The manager says
Leon sometimes

helps out with the big orders
for extra cash.

- So what, he overhears
the hotel room number and--

- My guess is he got it
off the carbon paper

of the order forms.
- He gets a taste.

So what's he after here?
Power? Control?

someone's happiness.

Hey, you got anybody

We usually sell

Come on, I'll pay you extra.
Come on. Come on.
