The Special Victims Unit struggle to find validity in an Alzheimer's patient's claim that she was raped.

Plot[]

Benson walks in to the precinct and finds Fin at his desk. She questioned him on this and he reveals that he was transferred back to SVU. Benson is taken aback by this but both she and he believe it's best that she does not know how he managed to do so. Regardless, she smiles and tells her sergeant to get her paperwork to her. Fin agrees to do so.

Quotes[]

Benson: Hey, Sarge.
Tutuola: Rub it in, why don't you?
Benson: Yeah, come on. You're gonna get used to it.
Tutuola: I doubt it, Liv. If I wanted to push paper, I'd sell insurance.
Benson: Come on, it's not gonna last forever.
Tutuola: Tomorrow's too long.
Benson: You know that my hands were tied on this one, right?
Tutuola: Yeah. I dug my hole, I'll eat the dirt.

Background Information and Notes[]

  • Fin is promoted to Sergeant as of this episode after passing the exam in "Real Fake News".
  • The song the Frank Sinatra impersonator (Albert Romano) sings is "Paper Doll" (the original song is by the Mills Brothers, but Sinatra sings a version of it himself).
  • The reason for Fin transferring back to SVU after becoming a sergeant has something to do with Dodds' memo from "Flight Risk" (19.11). This will be discussed about in the 20th season.
