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.

Man, this thing
is hard as a rock.

Well, it has been in
the freezer for a year.

You're using my best sushi knife

on frozen wedding cake?

I'll put it in the dishwasher
when the party's done.

James, you're putting my
knives in the dishwasher?

Yeah. Why?

I told you, it can
dull the blades.

Look, I will not have you
mad at me on our anniversary.

Open.

You know...

every year will be
better than the last.

- Mm.
- I love you.

Mm.

I love you too.

And as hot as you
look right now...

- Yeah, you like it?
- Mm-hmm.

Company's coming.
Put on real clothes.

- Sergeant.
- Captain.

Oh, your first citywide briefing

for the Intelligence
Division, huh?

Yeah, last time I was at one
of these things was with you.

- That's right.
- Hey, Sergeant.

Hey, uh, Detective Corgan,

this is my former captain...
- Olivia Benson.

Have we met?

No, but I am with the
Intelligence Division.

- Fair.
- Yeah.

See you inside, Sarge?
- Sure.

Gotcha.

Wow. I see you got
yourself a new partner.

- Mm.
- How's it going?

Really.

Don't take this the wrong way.

I love it.

It's like getting to
eavesdrop on the whole world.

- And get paid for it.
- Yeah, there's that.

And I wanna thank you for
putting in a word for me.

Are you kidding me?

And for steering me in
the right direction.

I... I miss my family
with all these long hours,

but before this, I missed
who I was even more.

It is so good to see this
version of you again.

Thanks to Detective Zaragoza
with the Gun Violence

Prevention Task
Force for the update,

and to the Corrections
Department for their report.

Next order of business,

now speaking for the
Intelligence Division,

the newly anointed
Sergeant Amanda Rollins.

Thank you, Deputy Commissioner.

Detective Corgan and I
have updated information

on the four-man robbery
crew we're been tracking.

Crime tourists from Albania.

These guys fly into
different cities,

they do a handful of jobs,

and then they are on a
plane in less than 48 hours.

And we have credible intel
that the crew may be headed

into Manhattan this weekend.

Their MO is to chase
potential targets...

private residences,
high-end offices.

We expect they have access
to inside information,

contacts in construction,
cleaning crews.

They move quickly,
leaving very little

in the way of prints or DNA.

As of now, Interpol
has yet to put names

or faces on any of these guys.

- Thank you.
- All right, good night.

Get home safe.

I hope they're taking a cab.
Who drinks that much anymore?

Polished off an entire bottle
of our champagne by themselves.

Well, not quite.

Happy anniversary, you two.

Oh, thank you.

And thanks to my husband
for knowing my taste.

Aww.

Are you paying attention, honey?

Our anniversary is in a month.

Okay, time for us to go home.

No, not until we help clean up.

Oh, no, no, no, no,
no. We got this.

Don't be a martyr.
It won't take long.

Jeez, man, you've
blasting those lats.

Well, it's a dangerous
world out there.

You gotta stay ready, you know?

You should actually stop by

one of my gyms with me sometime.

Mm. This?

All the exercise I can take.

Oh, you know what?

That's probably
Mitch coming back

to get our last good
bottle of champagne.

- Get back!
- Whoa! Hey!

Yo, what do you want?
- The safe, where is it?

Whoa, whoa, whoa, hey!
Stop, stop, please!

I said, where is it?
- What are you doing?

Shut the hell up.

- Oh, my God, what's going on?
- Start in the basement.

- Move! Move!
- Do what he says.

Go back there.

- Now.
- Come on.

- Oh, my God.
- Keep moving.

What did they say?
Go back. Just go.

I'm coming.

Just take whatever you want.
My wallet's on the dresser.

Take my necklace.

I have more jewelry
in the bedroom safe.

Yeah, no kidding.

We're looking for the other one.

We found it. 25-cube safe.

What's the combo?

James!

- The number.
- No, no, no.

Aldrit!

The combination.

26-19-32.

You want help with the safe?

You've done enough. Stay here.

- No, please.
- Hey, hey!

There's no need for that.
Just take what you want!

I will.

We don't know anything
about that safe.

Take your clothes off.

Wh...

No, no, please!
Don't, don't, don't!

Just do what he says!

You heard the man.

So one of the two female
victims was raped?

Yeah, we just pulled up.

What are we looking at?

A home invasion, armed
robbery, and a rape.

Are you thinking
this is your crew?

It could be. It's a
different MO though.

Because of the sexual assault.

- Eastern European accents.
- Right.

Yeah, I gotta look into it.
- Yeah.

Whose case is this?

Looks like it's both of ours.

Officer, what are we looking at?

Four perps in some kind of
construction masks, armed.

- How'd they get in?
- Just rang the bell.

Owners were having
a dinner party.

- One of the vics was shot?
- Homeowner, James Fletcher.

Direct shot to the kneecap.
He's on the way to Mercy.

What about the rape victim?

Nora Fletcher, the guy's wife.

Went with him in the ambo.
- All right.

Was she able to tell you which
one of them assaulted her?

Actually, she wouldn't
tell us anything.

Well, how do you
know she was raped?

Friends of the homeowners,
uh, Valerie and Graham Martin,

were right there in the
same room when it happened.

You're telling me that
she was sexually assaulted

in front of her friends?
- And her own husband.

We'll take it from
here, officer.

Divide and conquer?

The last guests had left.

Uh, we were cleaning up.

Doorbell rang. James answered.

And the robbery crew pushed in.

Four of them, in masks, armed.

- With?
- Shotguns, handguns.

They took, uh, the four of
us into the kitchen and,

um, zip-tied us.

They say anything?

One guy. Older.

Seemed like the leader.

And they knew exactly what
they were looking for.

Meaning what?

A safe in the
basement, evidently.

I'm James' best friend. I
didn't even know he had one.

Why'd they shoot him?

He wouldn't give up the combo.

Younger guy, seemed
like the muscle.

He shot him in the knee.

The leader was pissed.
- How so?

He yelled at the guy in
some foreign language.

Our Albanians.

They brought all of us in here.

And this is where
he tied you up?

Yeah.

At first, it seemed
like he just wanted

the combo to James' safe.

And what about your friend?

The one that was raped.

Nora doesn't know I told
the cops about that.

She asked me not
to say anything.

Do you have any idea why
she didn't wanna report it?

- I...
- But you reported it anyway.

- Someone needed to.
- Yeah.

About the rapist, is
there anything else

you could tell us?

He was some kind of
psycho, just unhinged.

It seemed like he
got off on the power,

making us watch.

James especially.

Keep canvassing...
traffic cams, Ring cams.

The neighbors who called it
in, I need a full statement.

Thank you, Fin.

Uh, were you able to
talk to the homeowners?

The doctors say that
James is still in surgery.

- And where's Nora now?
- She's in the cafeteria.

And I wasn't gonna talk to
her without you, of course.

But what is the play here?

Because her friend says she
doesn't wanna cooperate.

Well, we can't force
her to get a rape kit.

I know that, but...

this is a change in
pattern, Liv, all right?

These guys don't normally rape.

So this is about
ID'ing your unsubs?

Point blank, yes.

They could be on
the next flight out.

If this guy did leave DNA,
it could be our only chance

at getting this crew.
- I understand that.

But my main concern, Sergeant,

is getting the man
who raped Nora.

Mrs. Fletcher.

Hi, I'm Captain Benson from SVU.

This is Sergeant Rollins
from Intelligence.

Do you mind if we sit?

I don't want the
police involved.

I know.

I certainly understand
that, but your neighbor

across the street called it in.

You don't get it.

The men who broke into my
home know where we live.

We're gonna have to
move, leave the city.

Not if we catch these guys.

And if you don't?

We will, because one of
them made a big mistake.

A mistake that could lead
to us taking them all down.

And what was that?

Assaulting you.

Valerie told you.

I made her swear
not to say anything.

Listen, your friend
is worried about you.

And you need medical
attention, Mrs. Fletcher.

No, I don't care what
happens to me, okay?

I just want my marriage
to survive this.

A few hours ago,
I was mad at him

for putting knives
in the dishwasher.

He made James watch.

My tough guy just
became a puddle.

Help us find the men
who did this to you.

Please.

If I help... ifl help...

James can never know that
I told you how he reacted.

He will never hear it from us.

We just wanna get these guys...

Before they get on a plane
and leave the country.

Okay, Captain. Thanks.

Benson and Rollins got our
vic to agree to a rape kit.

With any luck, we'll be
able to pull the guy's DNA,

link him to something overseas.

I'm guessing in
your line of work,

you don't get too
many rape cases.

Nah, I've never seen
anything like this.

Yeah, even for us,
this one's pretty cold.

What the hell you
think that's about?

Think? The guys
we're dealing with,

not too much
thinking is involved.

Welcome to the cesspool
of human depravity.

Sorry to keep you
waiting. Come on in.

CSU says you got
something for us?

Found it outside
the Fletcher house.

Trail cam.

One of those things hunters use?

What are the chances
the Fletchers

put it there themselves?

As well as it was hidden,
I highly doubt it.

So somebody's been
recording the comings

and goings of the Fletchers.

You been able to pull
any footage off it yet?

Still working on it.

All right, so the homeowner
was shot in the knee...

he's still in recovery...
but the rape victim

agreed to a kit.
- A rape?

Are we sure that we're
looking at your crew, Rollins?

Well, the rape is off-pattern,

but the MO is the same.

So tell me that
we've got something.

Not a lot.

A few stills from the
neighbor's security cam.

Those bags look heavy.

The safe was cleaned out.

We found it in the
basement, open and empty.

Any idea what was in it?

We asked the wife.
She has no idea.

We haven't been able
to talk to the husband.

- Was anything else taken?
- They left a lot.

Paintings still on the
walls, rings on fingers,

watches on wrists.

Wife has a new diamond necklace,

and the guy has five Rolexes
in the bedroom safe alone.

Rolexes, two safes...
what does this guy

do for a living?
- He owns a chain of gyms.

He's worth about 50 mil.

This crew knew exactly
what they were going after.

- So CSU find anything?
- Not a print, hair, or fiber.

They're still combing through.

Yeah, but one thing, we
found a trail cam out front.

A trail cam?

Yeah, these robbery
crews use trail cams to

develop a pattern of
life for their targets.

TARU's tracing the serial
numbers and pulling images.

So what about the car?
Did we run the plates?

We can't trace the number.

Likely ghost plates, but
TARU's working on that too.

Okay, so clearly, whatever
they wanted was in that safe.

Well, the wife and the
friends might have no idea,

but somebody must.

Well, these people
are rich, right?

They have a staff?

Sure, a housekeeper, a gardener,

a couple of handymen...

Nora has to have
all those contacts.

Let's start there.

I just could not sit in
that cafeteria any longer.

My house still a crime scene?

We'll let you know as
soon as we're done.

Not that I ever
wanna go back there.

So did you find anything
from my rape kit?

There was DNA.

Um, unfortunately,
there's no matches

in our database.

We're also running
it international.

It may take time.

So what? We just wait?

No, we're... we're working
the other evidence.

Um, we found a trail cam that
was hidden in your planters

in the front of your house.
- A trail cam?

Yeah, the crew was using
it to stake out your place.

How... how long were
they watching us?

Well, we don't know that,

but Nora, what we'd
like to ask you for...

is there somebody
who can ID anybody

who's had access to your home?

Uh...

Oh, excuse me.

Oh, it's the hospital.

Uh, this is Nora Fletcher.

Uh, um... I'll...

I'll be right there.
Uh, I have to go.

- What... what is going on?
- James has a blood clot.

They have to put some kind
of filter in his chest.

He's gonna go back into surgery?

I don't know. I'm
sorry. I have to go.

Okay.

Good news?

Well, James is out of surgery,

but he's still unconscious
and unable to talk.

Okay, what do you
got from the list

of employees Nora gave us?

We showed the housekeeper

an image from the trail cam.
- And?

Well, she didn't
recognize the shorter guy.

Neither did Nora, but they
both ID'd the taller guy.

And who is he?

He's James Fletcher's
business manager.

- Business manager?
- Dennis Maynard.

He was helping James
open up a couple

new locations of his gym.

Well, obviously James
trusts him with his money,

so find out if he knows
what was in that safe

and who else he brought
to the apartment that day.

Got a hit on the
DNA from Interpol.

Great.

Aldrit Neziri from
Tirana, Albania, 25.

Picked up for sex assault
in Antwerp a year ago.

Made bail, managed to skip
out of town before trial.

Okay, did the rape
happen during a robbery?

Totally unconnected.
He drugged a stripper.

That's why he never
crossed our radar.

Do we know how he's
connected to the crew?

We're working on it.

One of Aldrit's
girlfriends posted bail

for him in Antwerp... Anya
De Vries, Dutch national.

She has an apartment in Queens.

Let's pay her a visit.

Police! Open up!

Police!
- We have a body down!

- Police!
- Stand down!

- Aldrit Neziri?
- NYPD!

Clear!

Clear.

- Bathroom's clear.
- Hallway clear.

Looks like he's staying here.

At least he was.

Now he's bleeding
out and on the run.

Why the hell would he
rip up his own passport?

My guess? He didn't.

Whoever broke in here,
shot his girlfriend,

and tried to kill him did.
- Okay.

So his crew tried
to clean up the mess

he made by raping Nora.
- They botched the job.

A lot of blood here.
He's not gonna get far.

Okay, we need a citywide
hospital canvass,

drugstores, and clinics.

And if he does survive,

he's gonna make one
hell of a witness.

His own team tried to kill him.

That'll make him easy to flip.

So we finally ID'd a suspect,

but he's in the wind?

- But he's wounded.
- And leaking.

So don't worry, we'll catch him.

The blood trail stops a
block from his apartment.

We're checking traffic
cams, canvassing.

What about ballistics?
You get those yet?

We found a gun that was
registered in Georgia

to none other than
the homeowner.

- James Fletcher?
- They took it from the safe.

But we still don't know
what else was in there?

No, but we ran James
Fletcher's financials...

Uh-huh.

And it turns out
that he cashed out

half of his
portfolio last month.

Okay, the business
manager, Dennis Maynard.

Did we talk to him?
- Not yet.

Maynard's office says
he's out of town.

He's not answering
his cell phone.

That's inconveniently
convenient.

We have a home address?

Yeah, he has a
townhouse in Chelsea.

You and Curry pay him a visit.

And in the meantime,
let's find out

if Nora knew why her husband
had an AR-15 in that safe.

Did we get the DNA
back from her rape kit?

That's how we ID'd him.

Well, I'd like to get as much
leverage on this guy as I can.

So let's show her a six-pack.

I mean, it's hard to tell.
He... he was wearing a mask.

So focus on the eyes.

Yeah, okay.

That's him.

Dead eyes.

Okay.

How is your husband doing?

He's still in recovery.

So you guys managed to
ID the man who raped me.

What about the rest?

We're still working
on all of it.

So, Nora, we recovered a gun

that was registered
to your husband.

What? There was a
gun in the safe?

Yeah, an AR-15.

What do you think he's doing

with a high-powered
weapon like that?

He was worried about my safety.

Why? Did something happen?

Six months ago, some random guy

sucker punched me on the street.

I was fine, but James just
got really overprotective.

He's worried this
country is gonna

descend into a civil war.

He even applied for a
citizenship in the EU.

So we also found out that he
cashed out several million

in stocks.
- What?

- You didn't know?
- No.

Did you talk to Dennis,
James' business manager?

We will.

So what can you
tell us about him?

He handles our finances.

What did James do
with that money?

We don't know yet,

but from what you're telling us,

it sounds like he was preparing
for the end of the world.

And somehow this crew
found out about it.

I apologize about that
out-of-town misunderstanding.

- Misunderstanding?
- I have a new office girl.

Okay, well, we're here now.

What happened to James
and Nora, terrible.

I've helped him
grow his business

for the past ten years.

So James must be one of
your longest clients.

He's like a brother to me.

We go golfing at
least once a week.

Have you caught these guys yet?
- Not yet.

We're hoping you could shed
some light on their motive.

- Why me?
- You pay his bills, right?

You ever seen this guy before?

No.

He's one of the guys
who robbed James?

And raped Nora.

All right, let's be
blunt, Mr. Maynard.

We know that James cashed
out half his portfolio.

I advised against it.

I had him heavily
invested in tech.

The market's never
looked better.

What was in the safe?

From what we could
tell, it was heavy.

- He bought gold.
- How much?

10 million.

Did anyone else know about this?

Other than me, uh,
his wife, maybe.

Why don't you ask him?

Oh, we will, once
he's conscious.

Okay.

Well, then, uh, I've
told you all I can.

One more thing.

Who's this gentleman?

That would be an appraiser
for the insurance company.

Insurance?

James asked me to take
out a policy on the gold.

We had to have it appraised.

Do you have a copy?

I'd have to look for it.

And without James' permission...

Okay, well, we can
get a subpoena.

No need for that.

It's around here somewhere.

Here it is.

And when did James
ask you to do this?

I am starting to
feel uncomfortable.

I'm not in the
habit of discussing

my clients' personal business.

Good thing it's dated.

A week before the robbery.

We're gonna need a copy of this.

Take that one.
It's a duplicate.

Now, if you'll excuse
me, I have a 3:00.

I think I have been
forthcoming enough.

You can see yourselves out.

We'll be in touch.

So James took out an
insurance policy on his gold

a week before the robbery?

You think he set this all
up to collect on the policy?

You can ask him yourself.

He just woke up.

I just got out of surgery,
I've barely talked to my wife,

and you're asking me about
some insurance policy?

We need to know
if you signed it.

Is this your signature?

No, it's not.

Dennis must have signed it.

Is that unusual?

He has power of attorney.

He signs a lot of things for me.

What is unusual is I had no idea

that insurance
policy even existed.

Okay, so why didn't
you call the cops

after your house was robbed?

And your wife got raped?

You think I wanted to see her
get raped right in front of me?

- Okay.
- Huh?

All right, let's just calm down.

You wanna know why I
didn't call the cops?

It's because I froze, okay?

A man has two jobs,

to protect and
provide for his woman,

and I'm a failure at
the most important one.

I mean, somehow these guys
knew that you had $10 million

in gold in your basement.
How'd they find out?

I don't know.

Didn't let it slip to a
friend or somebody at work?

I didn't even tell Nora.

So James and his
business manager

are the only two who
knew about the gold?

Yeah, but I don't think
James is good for it.

Okay, so what about his
insurance appraiser?

He had to have known about it.

Well, according to his office,

the guy's been
missing for two days.

My guess is three Albanians
gave him a swimming lesson

in the East River.
- Hold on.

How does a middle-aged
financial manager

get in touch with a crew of
international crime tourists?

We went through
Maynard's client list.

He's got a lot of contacts
in the Diamond District.

Diamond District?

Okay, it's not hard
to do the math.

I mean, his townhouse
alone, his trophy wife...

this guy's life isn't cheap.

And it's about to get a
whole lot more expensive.

Bring him in.

So what's the short
guy's name again?

The appraiser? Kyle Schwartz.

Just pulled him out
of the East River,

full of shotgun pellets.
- Yeah, that sounds familiar.

Okay, here he is.

You wanna do the honors?
- Hell, no.

I'm in Intelligence.
We keep it clean.

Okay, I can't say for sure
until we do ballistics,

but from the look of
it, this is the same

shotgun gauge used
by the Albanians.

He's gotta have more
holes than a colander,

and we still haven't
found the guys.

We need to widen the search.

Well, you can handle that.

Just picked up Maynard.

All right.

I never meant for
anyone to get hurt.

I was told these
guys weren't violent.

Who told you that?
Another criminal?

Who was your contact?

We give that up, and what kind

of consideration do we get?

Mr. Carter, you already
have my patience.

So my consideration
for murder one,

you're not gonna get.
- Murder one? What?

Someone's dead?

These guys killed one of their
accomplice's girlfriends.

And from the looks of it,
they tried to kill him too.

Yeah, and maybe your appraiser.

What?

Yeah, Kyle Schwartz from
Blackstone Fidelity.

When's the last time
you heard from him?

We just saw his
body in the morgue.

My client's gonna
need protection.

We can do that.

So, Dennis, how
did this all start?

I had already brokered
James' gold deal.

So you knew he was sitting
on $10 million worth.

You had power of
attorney, so you took out

an insurance policy
without him knowing.

And let me guess, you
were gonna get paid twice.

Yeah, the robbery crew was gonna

cut you in on the gold,

and then you were gonna
cash out the policy.

I thought these guys were pros.

They were going to go in,
get the gold, and get out.

No one was supposed to get hurt.

Yeah, well, a woman got
raped because of you,

and your client damn near died.
- We're here to cooperate.

Well, then you
better start talking.

Are these guys still in town?

It's not easy to unload
$10 million worth of gold.

Not like they're gonna
take it on a plane.

Well, this is what
you're gonna do.

You're gonna get
in touch with them,

and you're gonna tell
them you have a buyer.

If these guys do fall for
this fake buyer setup...

Then we arrest them and
your case is closed.

And your rapist is
still out there.

With no leads.

But either way, you and I
need to let James and Nora

know that their business manager

was the one who set them up.

Maynard had those
guys rob our house?

Why?

He was heavily leveraged.

He was deeply in debt.

What about the man who raped me?

Maynard said that
wasn't part of the plan.

And you believe him?

Whether we do or we
don't isn't the issue.

But the... the fact
of the matter is,

is he did embezzle
the $10 million.

Oh, my God.

I... I just feel like
this is all my fault.

I was just trying to have a plan

to protect you in the future
in case the world collapsed,

and I put you in danger.

I told you just to do
whatever he wanted.

Are we ever gonna be okay again?

I think the most important thing

is that you're both
here, together.

It's Corgan.

Excuse us for a sec.

A 911 call just came in.

A doctor at a downtown
clinic was just held up

at gunpoint by a man with
wounds from buckshot.

Is that the guy?

Yeah, that's him.

We were just closing
up. He burst in.

And what did he ask you to do?

He had a wound in his
side, one in his leg.

He tried to Krazy
Glue them shut,

but it wasn't helping.

He held a gun on me,
demanded medical attention.

He had an accent?

Sounded Eastern European.

I did what I could.

Took some pellets out, gave
him gauze, painkillers.

- And then what happened next?
- He just left.

Did you see him get into a car?

No, his condition,
he won't get far.

All right.

Thank you so much, Doctor.
All right, team, listen up.

Uh, I need this
entire area searched.

We know he's on foot, and
we have a description.

Go.

We're gonna need air support.

Officers saw a guy
matching the description

bleeding on Greenwich.
- We're heading there now.

- Let's go.
- All right.

He's armed. Everybody vest up.

There's no sign of him yet.

Maybe we should have
jumped in the car.

In this crowd?

I think we're
better off on foot.

- Liv.
- NYPD!

- What?
- Yo, watch it!

Move!

Stop!

- He's going downstairs.
- We got him.

He's headed upstairs.

What... what are you doing?

Rollins.

NYPD. Everyone back!

We got a gun behind the
bar. It needs to be secured.

NYPD. Watch it.
- Police!

- Where the hell is he?
- We split up.

You take the upstairs.

I'm gonna go this way.

Watch it. Watch it.

Get out of my way!

He's heading towards the roof.

Liv, I'm on his heels.

Hey! Don't move!

- It's over.
- You're hurting me.

Aldrit Neziri?

- I don't know who that is.
- Oh, you don't?

Guess what?

We do.

Come on.

Valerie, what's going on?

It's Nora.

I called the hotel, and
the concierge sent me here.

- Nora's in that bar?
- Yeah.

And from the way she's acting,
she's been there for hours.

She won't talk to you?

She refuses to even look at me.

She thinks I betrayed her trust.

Right.

By telling us that
she was raped.

Okay, listen to me, Valerie.

You did... you did
the right thing.

I'm not so sure now.

I've never seen her
like this before.

She's never been sexually
assaulted before.

It has a way of changing people.

It's changed you too.

Yeah, it's been tough
to forget what we saw,

but Graham and I are
getting through it.

Listen, it's not
about forgetting it.

It's about dealing with it.

- That's why I called you.
- Of course. Of course.

I'll, uh... I'll talk to her.

This place feels
a little lowbrow

for your style, isn't it?

Well, this is how
I'm feeling, so...

and I don't need company.

Well, I'm not gonna let
you beat yourself up alone,

so you might as well
tell me what's going on.

That story that
you told us about

getting punched in the
face by a passerby...

you said that James got
overprotective after that?

Yeah, he did.

How did it affect you?

Well, in hindsight,

I think I was just more
worried about James' reaction.

But you were the one
that was victimized.

I mean, in hindsight,
I think I just

was more worried
about how James felt.

Because James would feel worse.

Is it possible that that's
what you're doing now?

Mm-hmm.

How do I get out of this?

What happened to
you was horrific,

but it wasn't just you.

Your... your friends
saw, your husband saw.

But your first instinct

was not to report
your rape, right?

To spare them all the pain?

I don't know. I thought
I was being strong.

That's not strength, Nora.

That's avoidance.

You know, you, uh... you
don't have to do it now,

here, in front of me,
but at some point today,

I want you to talk
to your husband

about how this affected you.

And then after that,
I want you to tell him

that you're not as far away
from justice as you feel.

What do you mean?

We caught the guy.

That's right.

You pick up the other
three Albanians?

Alex Neziri, Zef Sokoli
and Sandro Nikolla

were arrested at the
sting Dennis set up.

They're in Rikers
awaiting arraignment.

- They say anything?
- They lawyered up.

But we recovered the
gold and the masks

from the rental they had
up in the South Bronx.

That's good enough for
a grand jury indictment.

Hey, by the way,
Interpol's been calling.

They want us to ship
these guys back overseas.

Well, we're fighting it.

New York crime, New York case.

Don't worry, they're gonna
do their time in New York,

and then we'll consent
to extradition.

What about Aldrit?

He's guilty for the
shooting and the rape.

Oh, he's still in the hospital.

Is there any chance
this guy would

testify against his buddies?

I mean, these guys are
gonna plead not guilty.

They're gonna milk this
as long as they can.

Well, they did kill
his girlfriend,

so, yeah, maybe.

Nothing like arraigning
a guy in a hospital bed,

just to up the pressure.

There's the hardball
ADA I married.

On the charges of robbery
in the first degree,

assault one, and rape
one, how do you plead?

- Not guilty.
- People on bail?

Given that he's a
foreign national

with no ties to the community...
- I'll grant remand.

Unless you have any objections.
- No, Your Honor.

Okay.

Mr. Neziri, you will
be sent to Rikers

pending trial after your
release from this hospital.

Do you understand?

Just answer the judge.

Yes.

Then we are adjourned.

Come on.

My client may be
willing to cooperate.

I'm listening.

Once the crew found
out Aldrit took a deal,

they all folded.

What kind of time
are we looking at?

15 years each for
the armed robbery.

What did they give Aldrit?

20 years for the
robbery and assault.

And what about the rape?

Another five, to be
served consecutively.

Then he'll be
extradited to Antwerp

to face the sex
assault charges there.

Assuming his
partners don't finish

the job they started and
execute him in Rikers.

Either way, nice
work, Counselor.

Can we go home now?

I'll meet you there.

- I'm out.
- Yeah.

So the man who raped
me will go to prison?

Absolutely.

He's gonna testify
against the others first,

but he's gonna do serious time.

And what he did to you,
he's done to others before.

Multiple countries
want this guy,

and he'll be in a prison
somewhere in Europe for life.

Uh, and what about
James' business manager?

So Maynard, it's, uh, a
bit of a different story.

He took a plea deal,

but from what we
understand, he has lost

every single client he ever had.

And his marriage.

Speaking of which, how
are you and James doing?

Uh...

Trying to get him to
take a second look

at how he sees the world.

We talked about moving
out of the city.

Oh? And how do you
feel about that?

I made it clear that
I'm never going back

to that house again.

And I'm not gonna live in fear

that the world's
gonna fall apart.

You know, hope can
never be underestimated.

Yeah, well, I hope he
and I can get past this

together, as a couple.

You know, Nora, if I can,
uh, offer you this...

one thing that you
might wanna focus on now

is taking care of yourself.

Because my experience is,

we cannot truly
support another person

until we deal with our
own individual trauma.

Well, that was an adventure.

Oh, is that what
we're calling it?

I'm not gonna say
I'm happy that a crew

of crime tourists
came into our lives,

but it was nice to
work with you again.

Well, it never hurts
to have a little juice

with the Intelligence Division.

Hey, if I ever get any
intel on an SVU case,

you'll be my first call.
