- 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.

[saw whirring]

- Yo, Eddie!

Gino's guy dropped off
that square stock for us.

Where do you want it?

- Over by the bending jig.

- You gonna be here late?

- Should have never said yes
to this brownstone job.

- You want me to stay, boss?

I can help you
with all that scrollwork.

- No, no, no, no.
Go home to your girlfriend.

- Are you sure?
- Yeah.

Get out of here
before I change my mind.

- I'll see you tomorrow.

You want me to lock up?

- Nah, leave it open.

I need the air.

[ZZ Top's
"Sharp Dressed Man" playing]

- * Clean shirt, new shoes *

* And I don't know
where I am going to *

* Silk suit, black tie *

* I don't need a reason
why-y-y *

* They come running
just as fast as they can *

* 'Cause every girl crazy
'bout a sharp-dressed man *

[tense music]

- [grunts]

[knock at door]

- Eddie! You in there?

- Dad, can we just go home?

- Hey, you wanna get
your last paycheck or what?

- He probably left
for the night.

- Left? Light's still on.

Oh!

It's open.
He's in there. Go on.

- By myself?
- Yeah.

You're gonna own up
to your mistakes,

look your boss in the eye,
and apologize.

And who knows?

Maybe get your job back.

- I told you,
I don't want my job back.

- Get in there. Go ahead.

- Eddie?

[tense music]

* *

Eddie?

Eddie?

Eddie!

* *

Eddie?

Dad! Help!

[door clicks open]

- Sam?

What's going on?

- Is he dead?

- Oh, geez.
Hey. Hey, all right.

[stammering] Wait outside.
Wait outside.

[sirens wailing]

- What are we looking at?

- Vic is Eddie Upshaw,
shop owner.

Hit on the head,
some kind of blunt instrument.

On his way to the hospital.
They think he'll pull through.

- Can we talk to him?
- Not yet.

- So the 911 caller mentioned
a possible sexual assault?

- Upshaw was found stripped,
pants down,

sodomized with an object.

And whoever did this carved
something on his back.

- Carved his back?
What did they write?

- A bunch of numbers.
- Who found him?

- Kid, over there.
Sam Carson, 17.

Works here.
Came by with his father.

- A little late to be
showing up for work, isn't it?

- Yeah, let's find out why.

- Velasco and I will
search the shop.

- Okay, find the weapon
he was hit with

and what they used
to carve up his back.

- My son Sam works
as an apprentice here.

- At least, I did.

- Did?

- I messed something up
on a job.

Eddie yelled at me, so I quit.

- Why did you come back?
- To get my last paycheck.

- And to man up
for what he did.

- At night?

- Yeah, I told him to,

you know,
make it right with Eddie

as soon as he got
out of school.

- I must've gotten sidetracked.

- Kid's got a new girlfriend.

- So what time
were you with her until?

- Until my dad called me,

mad that I hadn't gone
to see Eddie yet.

- I probably shouldn't have
sent him in here alone.

- So, Sam, you're the one
that found Mr. Upshaw?

- Yeah.

He was hanging from a pole.

His pants were down.

There was blood
on his legs and back.

- So did you see anybody else
in here, or anybody leave?

- No, I didn't see nothing.

- Okay, thank you.

If we have any more questions,
we'll get in touch.

- He's gonna live, right?

- We don't know yet.

- Come on.

- Find anything?

- Place is full
of hammers, pipes.

- Nothing with blood on it
except the angle grinder.

- Okay, have 'em
bag everything.

What do we know
about this Upshaw guy?

- Divorced, three kids.

- We found his cell phone,
and his ex-wife is listed

as his emergency contact.

- Okay, send that to TARU.

Check his last calls.

- A lot of potential weapons
in here.

This Upshaw guy have
any financial trouble?

- No record.

He makes a little more
than 100,000 a year.

- So kind of
an unremarkable guy.

- Not anymore.

- Yeah, but still,
an older man getting

sexually assaulted like this?

- It's gotta be rare.

- First time for everything.

[dramatic music]

* *

.

- Eddie Upshaw,
small business owner

of a welding shop,
working late.

- All right. No security cams?

- We found one that was
installed decades ago.

Takes VHS tapes--
not operational.

- We did find an angle grinder
with Eddie's blood on it,

but the only prints
were Eddie's.

- And no sign of forced entry?

- Whoever it was,
Eddie either let him in

or they walked in
through the open door.

- Okay,
could he have been expecting

the kid and his father?
- Maybe.

Eddie and the kid, Sam,
they had a falling out.

The kid quit.

He was coming back
for his last paycheck.

- We really think
a teenager clubbed a guy,

sodomized him, and then carved
a date into his back?

- Could be a combination.

- It meant something
to someone.

So where was the kid and his
father before they found him?

- Father was at work.

- Kid was with his girlfriend.

- So follow up, confirm.

- You think Sam was involved?

He wasn't even alive in 2001.

- From what we know,
the guy was well-liked.

- No one is well-liked
by everyone, right?

Somebody was sending a message.

So find out who in Eddie's life
could have done this--

a disgruntled employee,
an angry ex?

I mean,
this is clearly personal.

- Eddie gonna be okay?

- He's getting treated.

So what do you know?

- Not much.

I showed up for work
this morning.

Cops told me what happened.

- When's the last time
you saw him?

- Yesterday around 8:00.

We were working.
He told me to go home.

- So he was alone?

- With the music on.

Told me to leave the door open.

- How long have you
been working for him?

- Four, almost five years.

- Have you ever heard of any
employee complaining about him?

- No. Eddie's a solid dude.

Payroll is always on time.
Checks never bounce.

- Okay, what about
his personal life?

- He never talks about it.

- Have you ever noticed anyone
sketchy coming around here?

- No.

Besides vendors and clients,

the only people who come
around here are apprentices.

- Like the kid who found Eddie.

- Sam? Yeah.

- We heard
that they had some beef.

- The kid cut through the hose
on our MIG welder

with a Sawzall by accident.

- So why'd Sam quit?

- Sam doesn't always use

the common sense
that God gave him.

But he's a good kid--

eager, quick study.

- Has he ever talked to you
about his new girlfriend?

- No, but I can see
why he quit.

- Thanks.

- Yeah, Sam is my boyfriend.

I mean, more like a friend.
Not like we do anything.

- Is my daughter
in some kind of trouble?

- No, not at all.

- We just wanna know
if you saw Sam yesterday.

- Did you?

- Yes.

Just for a little bit,
after school.

- Did he happen to talk
about his boss?

- Mr. Upshaw?

Yeah.
- What'd he say?

- He'd tell me what he learned
about welding,

when Eddie was nice
or when he'd get pissed at him.

- What was he pissed about?

- Normal boss stuff.

Sam said he broke
a tool or something.

He says Eddie yelled at him.

- How long did you and Sam
hang out yesterday?

- Only for a little while
after school.

- Until what time?

- I was home by 4:00.

Why?

- So Sam Carson's alibi
doesn't check out.

- He wasn't with
his girlfriend.

- All right,
what about the father?

- Nate Carson's
office confirmed

he was at work until 8:00.

- They found Eddie at 9:00.

- So that rules the father out.
- But not Sam.

- Hey, heard back from TARU

about Eddie's
cell phone records.

- And?
- It's pretty dull stuff.

No questionable photos,
no off-color texts--

except Upshaw called Sam
ten times last night.

- Ten times?

- Pretty excessive.

Did he ever call him back?
- Not once.

- But then he just shows up
with his father?

- And lies about being
with his girlfriend?

- This sound right to you?

- It sounds like
Sam's ducking him.

- Bring him in.

- Why are we here?

We--we told you guys
everything last night.

- Your son left
some things out.

- Have a seat.

You never mentioned

that Mr. Upshaw called you
last night--

more than a few times.

- I must have had
my phone on silent.

- Sam, it's time
to come clean, all right?

Just tell us
what's really going on.

- Nothing.

- You're lying.

- My son is not a liar.
- Yeah?

He lied about being
with his girlfriend last night.

- You talked to Ellie?

- Yeah, she told us
you came over for a few minutes

after school,
then she went home.

- You told me
you were with her.

Are you lying to us?

- Sam.

Where were you between school
and going to Eddie's shop?

- Where were you, Sam?

- Hey, come on.
He asked you a question.

- Okay! Okay.

I was in the park.
- Which one?

- Tompkins Square.
- Doing what?

- Thinking!
- About?

- Just thinking!

- Is my son
in some kind of trouble here?

- Mr. Carson,
we are not accusing Sam

of anything just yet.

- But we do need
to clarify some details.

- Do you have any idea
why Mr. Upshaw called you

ten times last night?

- No.

- Why was he
calling you nonstop?

- I don't know.

- You don't know,
or you don't wanna tell us?

Now is the time
to come clean, Sam.

- Why? What did Mr. Upshaw say?

- He didn't say anything.
He's still unconscious.

- You know what I think?

I think Upshaw was surprised
you even quit.

- Yeah, and that's
why you blew him off.

- I messed up.

- You're an apprentice.

Making little mistakes
is part of learning.

- And you know what isn't?

- Clubbing your boss
in the head

with some metal or something.

- And carving a date
in his back

with an angle grinder.

- June 15, 2001.

That mean anything to you, Sam?

- What? No.

- That's--
that's before you were born.

Are you lying to us right now?

- No!

- Are you sure?
- Yes!

- All right, uh...

do I--
do I need to call a lawyer?

- If we have any more
questions, we'll let you know.

- Let's go. Come on.

[suspenseful music]

- Did you talk to the kid?

- He wasn't saying anything
with his father in the room.

- Counselor.

- Get anywhere
with this Upshaw case?

I just saw your two witnesses
walk out of here.

- There's definitely
some kind of connection

between Upshaw
and that kid Sam.

- We think he's good for it?

- I hope not.

- His timeline is sketchy.

Lied about his alibi.

- Upshaw called him
ten times last night.

He didn't call him back.

- Is there any actual physical
evidence that ties him to this?

- We recovered the weapon
that was used to carve him up,

but only Eddie's prints
are on it.

- Well, until Upshaw wakes up,
this is still an open case.

What about that date?

- Didn't mean anything to Sam.

- Captain,
Upshaw is out of surgery.

He's conscious.
- Great.

So find out if June 15th
means anything to our victim.

* *

.

- Dr. Klein?
- Yes?

- We're here
about Eddie Upshaw.

Sergeant Tutuola.
This is Detective Bruno, SVU.

So what can you tell us?

- This is one of the more
brutal assaults I've seen.

Lucky he was unconscious
for most of it.

- Any idea about the weapon?

- Skull fracture.

Some kind of heavy,
blunt instrument.

Basic.

Same with the sodomy.

- What about the numbers
carved on his back?

We found an angle grinder with
his blood on it at the scene.

- That's likely the implement.

Whoever did this wanted
to make sure it caused a scar.

- Can he answer questions?

- He's on pain meds,
but he can speak.

- How are you feeling,
Mr. Upshaw?

- We have some questions
about last night.

- Me too.

My memory's not so good.

- That's normal. Give it time.

Memories might come back.

- Maybe it's better
if they don't.

- Did you get a look
at your assailant?

- No.

They hit me from behind.

- Maybe skin color, hands?

I'm gonna show you something.

It might be tough to take.

That date mean anything to you?

- No, I--

what was that, like,
20 years ago or something?

[suspenseful music]

- Is there anybody
in your life you can think of

who would do this to you?

- No.

It feels like you're asking me
to tell you if I did something

to bring this on myself.

- No, no,
we're not saying that.

- Because I've never done
anything to anyone

to justify this!

[breathing heavily]

Scarring me for life?

- Okay, okay.

It's just, this is a very
specific message to send.

- And statistically,
a guy your age

is the least likely
to be sexually assaulted.

- We're just trying
to find a motive.

- Sometimes,
there is no reason.

I just need more pain meds.

- Okay, Mr. Upshaw, we're gonna
let you get some rest.

Thank you.

If Upshaw knows who did this,
he's not telling us.

- Or he's afraid to talk.

- Yeah, about who cut
that date in his back.

- Well, he's got
an ex-wife who's still

his emergency contact.

- Someone should
pay her a visit.

- June 15, 2001?

Sorry, it doesn't mean
anything to me.

- Okay, well, are you still mad

at your ex-husband
about anything?

- When the cops called me
about Eddie, I felt horrible.

- But you didn't
go to the hospital?

- There wasn't anything
I could do.

Look, Eddie is bad at life.

- When did you divorce him?

- Over five years ago.

25 years was enough.

- And how did he handle it
when you asked him for divorce?

- Fine.

Didn't put up a fight
or anything.

- You have three kids.

- They don't have much
of a relationship with him.

- Any particular reason why?

- They're older.
They got their own lives.

- Okay, well,
is there anyone else

that you can think of
in his life

who might wanna hurt him?

- The city is full of wingnuts.

Is it really that crazy
to think this was random?

- Random attacks
don't usually involve

someone being scarred with
a specific date, Mrs. Upshaw.

- I'm sorry.

I wish I could be more help.

- Thank you.

- So our vic has no idea

who would carve that date
into his back.

- Neither did his ex-wife.

- They both claim
there's no one in his life

that would hurt Eddie.

- Any red flags
on social media?

- Not that we could find.

- Online dating?

- He doesn't really
seem to have

a social media life at all.

He has a page for the shop,

but he hasn't updated it
in three years.

- Other than that,
no digital footprint.

- So we have a 50-year-old guy
who was sexually assaulted,

then scarred with a date.
[phone buzzes]

I mean, we all know
that this wasn't random.

So keep digging
into Upshaw's past.

- Sam Carson just texted.

He wants to meet me
in the park.

- Alone?

I would feel more comfortable
if he had backup.

- This kid just needs
someone to talk to.

I go alone, he's more likely
to be forthcoming.

- Keep me posted.

- Hey, Sam.

- Hey.

I'm in trouble.

- What kind of trouble?

- I'm not sure.

- You know, when things get
too big, I get afraid.

Like, if I open my mouth, I'm--

I'm gonna fall off
some kind of cliff.

If that's where you are,
I promise you,

whatever it is, I got you.

- I'm afraid it's my fault.

[somber music]

I've been working for Eddie
since I was 15.

He's been good to me.

- Good how?

- Teaching me stuff
in the shop.

Making sure I'm on my game.

He started
to give me rides home.

- Did something happen?

- At first, we would talk
about personal stuff.

And he started asking me
questions about girls,

what I do with them.

What I do with myself
when I'm alone.

Then he told me
to pull my pants down.

I let him do it.

I just--I just froze.

It's like I wasn't even there.

I just let him do it.

- Sam, listen to me.

This happens
to a lot of people.

This is not on you.
- To girls, maybe.

But--but not to guys.

- It doesn't work like that.

- I kept going
back to the shop.

I tried to avoid Eddie,
but most of the times,

it was just him and me.

- Eddie set it up that way.

- My dad says
people who get hurt

put themselves
in that position.

I mean, you've--
you've seen him.

He'll think it's my fault.

- You're not the adult here.

Eddie is.

And what he did
is called grooming.

He gained your trust,
and then he manipulated it.

- Are you gonna tell my dad?

- No, I won't have to.

You will.

- I don't think I can.

- If I had a kid
and somebody hurt him,

I'd wanna know.

So give your dad a chance
to be your dad.

And I'm gonna help you
through it, okay?

- Okay.
[sniffles]

- But I have to ask you
a question, though.

What happened to Eddie,

did you have
anything to do with it?

* *

- Hey, Bruno.

- I'm sorry it's late.
- No, it's okay.

I was--
I was expecting your call.

You talked to Sam?
- Yeah.

I figured it'd just be easier
to tell you in person.

- What?

- Sam didn't do this,
but there's a reason

he might have wanted to.

- Come in.

.

- Hey, you got a break
in the Upshaw case?

- Well, yes and no.

- Oh, good.
Well, let's start with the yes.

How about that?
- Okay.

Well, Sam Carson
admitted to Bruno

that Eddie abused him.

- Oh, well, that's a motive
for the assault on Eddie.

- But Sam denies
that he attacked Eddie.

- Do you believe this kid?

I mean, didn't he lie
about his alibi?

- He did, at first.

But then he said that he was
in Tompkins Square Park,

and the pole cam footage
confirms.

- So Sam is
no longer a suspect?

Let's get to the "no"
in this scenario.

- Well, the "no" is,
we have no viable suspects.

But odds are that Sam is
not Eddie's first victim.

- Have you found any other
complaining witnesses?

- We talked to former
employees, apprentices.

- So far, nothing.

- Eddie had no record
for the last 20 years.

- Going back
into the online booking system,

arrests were logged by hand,
so it's gonna take some time.

- Okay, so keep searching.

In the meantime,
Carisi and Bruno, my office.

I realize
that Eddie Upshaw is a victim

in a hospital bed, but--

- He's also a perp.

- So, Carisi, can we make
a case against him?

- If this kid Sam is
willing to testify, yeah.

- There's one hurdle.

Sam doesn't wanna tell
his father, let alone testify.

- Yes, but at the same time,
Sam is a minor.

So at some point, we are going
to have to inform his parents.

- I'll let Sam know.

- Mr. and Mrs. Carson,

thank you so much
for coming in.

- Sam said it was something
about Eddie Upshaw.

- Ah, yeah.

- Please have a seat.

- So...

These conversations are--

are difficult to have.

- I know Sam lied to you,
but he's just a scared kid.

- Your son isn't in
any kind of trouble.

- Your son is a victim.

- What?

- I don't understand.

- Sam, what's going on?

- Go ahead.

You can tell them.

Exactly what we talked about.

- I don't want you to be mad.

- Oh, we--we're not mad.

- I lied to you
about why I quit the shop.

- It's okay, Sam.

You're safe. Right?

You can tell them.

[somber music]

- I quit because
Mr. Upshaw was touching me.

He was making me touch him.

- What?

- Wait--wait a minute.

How's that--
how's that possible?

- Look, I know that this is
a lot to process.

But Sam disclosed
to Detective Bruno--

- Your son is the victim
of sexual abuse.

- Oh, my God.

- Why wouldn't you tell us?

- I didn't want you to be mad.

- Mad?
I wouldn't be mad at you, son.

- It's going to be okay.

We're going to figure this out,
okay?

- And it might benefit you
and--and your family to--

to maybe see a counselor.

I have some names that
I'm happy to connect you with.

- Is that why Upshaw
was attacked like that?

- We believe it's possible
he has other victims.

- Well, what happens now?

- Well, we still wanna
prosecute

for what he did to Sam.

- Does that mean
Sam will have to testify?

- If our ADA can
make a deal, no.

But if this goes to trial,
then yes.

- I don't know
if I can do that.

- Sam, Upshaw abused you.

He needs to go to prison.

- I just wanna go home.

- I think that's a good idea.

If you need anything,
if you have any questions,

please, we're here.

- I'll walk you out.

- Thank you for helping my son.

* *

- You all right, Liv?

- I've been better.

- We're on the right track now.

- Why? We got something?

- Curry found an old
arrest record on Eddie Upshaw

from 2002.

Sexual abuse in the first.

- Did you get a name
of the victim?

- She was a minor,
so it's Jane Doe.

- Okay, did it go to trial?

- If it did,
it was an acquittal.

Case is sealed.

It's probably in some warehouse
somewhere out in Queens.

- Well, I will ask Carisi
to have a judge sign off

on access to the file.

In the meantime,
have Curry and Velasco

head out to the warehouse.

[suspenseful music]

* *

- '95 to '05 are in here.

Criminal on this side,
civil on the other.

The boxes should be labeled
clearly enough, so good luck.

* *

- You ready?

- Let's get
this son of a bitch.

* *

- Okay, so you found something.

- Upshaw's sex abuse case
went to trial in 2004.

- And?
- He was acquitted.

- Okay, what about
our Jane Doe victim?

- The name is redacted.

She was 11 years old
during the trial.

She was eight
when the abuse began.

- Yeah, in 2001.

Jury didn't believe her.

Call the arresting officer.

Call the ADA.

Get me a name.

- There might be a shortcut.

The ex-wife,

she was still married to him
during the trial.

- And when we interviewed her,

she said that that date
didn't mean anything to her.

- Okay, so she's either
in utter denial

or she's lying to protect him.

Find out which one.

[indistinct chatter]

- Oh, come on. What is this?

- Just a couple more questions
about your ex-husband.

- I told you
everything already.

- I doubt that.

- So my first question is,

what's making this nice lady
so squirrelly

that she decides
to lie to the cops?

- That's a good question.
- Thanks.

- I got nothing more
to say about Eddie.

What?

- Your ex-husband
was a defendant

in a sexual abuse case
early on in your marriage.

You don't think that's
something we needed to know?

- That girl was lying.

- How do you know?

- She was friends
with my daughter.

She had mental problems.

- She was eight years old.

- Her father was a drinker.

Her mother was out of her mind.

She was just looking
for attention.

- Is that what
you tell yourself

so you could stay
married to him

for 25 years with three kids
in the house?

- Don't you judge me.

I had no help.

- So what, you--you stayed
with him for a paycheck?

I mean, have you asked yourself

why your kids want
nothing to do with him?

- He wouldn't have the stones
to mess where he eats.

He knew my family
would kill him.

- What do you think
your family would feel

if they know
you're covering for him?

- Hmm?

[tense music]

I'll step outside.

* *

- We need the name
of the victim

and where we can find her.

.

- Angela Jones has
been in prison

for the past five years.

- Turns out, Upshaw's daughter
stayed in touch with her.

- What were the charges?
- Drug possession.

Recently paroled.

- How recently?
- A week ago.

- Three days before
Upshaw was attacked.

- That doesn't mean
that she's good for it.

- No, but as much
as we may not like it,

it does make her a suspect.

- So what was Angela's history

since Upshaw was acquitted
of her abuse?

- She went downhill.

- At 13, drugs
and alcohol problems, truancy.

She barely graduated
high school.

- Psych wards,
in and out of juvie.

- Rikers,
multiple arrests in her 20s,

court-mandated rehab.

- So nothing worked?
- No.

- Okay, do we have
a last-known for Angela?

- We spoke
with her parole officer.

- Okay, well, go talk to her.

- Copy.

- And what is
Upshaw's condition?

- He's stabilized.
- Still in the hospital.

- All right,
so go to the hospital,

show them a six pack,
and see if he can make an ID.

- He was pretty cagey

the first time
we talked to him, Liv,

- He says he never saw
the perp's face.

- If his attacker is
a former abuse victim,

that might explain why.

- [sighs]

- I know this is a tough one
for you, Liv.

- Did you read the transcript
of the court case?

- I did.

- She was eight years old when
Upshaw started abusing her,

and that jury just
let him go free.

- She waited
over a year to report.

And the defense played up
her inconsistencies,

mental lapses.

And this--
this was over 20 years ago.

- Just makes me crazy.

And I know that they didn't
have the understanding

of trauma that we do now,
about how it affects memory

and how, you know, it can
make time just collapse.

And if she did assault
Eddie Upshaw,

it's a horrific crime.

But if her sexual assault case
against Eddie was on trial now,

he'd be in prison.

- Well, you've gotta be
kidding me.

This wasn't a woman.

- We've got a possible suspect.

- Why don't you take
a closer look?

- Unless there's a reason
you don't want us

to close this case.

- What's that supposed to mean?

- You said you didn't do
anything to anyone

to deserve to be assaulted
like this.

- I haven't.

- And you didn't think we'd
find out about Angela Jones?

[tense music]

- That girl was lying.

I knew it, the jury knew it,
and I walked out of there.

- And what about Sam Carson?

- Whatever Sam's saying,
he's lying too.

- Maybe you got away
with what you did 20 years ago,

but not today.

- I'm not talking
to you guys anymore.

* *

- You okay, man?

- If I ever had a kid
and somebody did that,

my face would be
the last thing they ever see.

- I feel you.

- I'm a cop.
I shouldn't say that.

- Yeah, Bruno,
but you're human first.

- You really think
Angela did this?

- Well, the police report
listed June 15, 2001,

as the first time
Angela was abused by Upshaw.

- I can't believe she's been
carrying this day

with her ever since.

- Well, I guess she wants him
to carry it now.

[dog barking]

- Fourth floor.
- Copy.

- This one?
- Yeah.

- NYPD!

- Angela?

[window creaks, metal clangs]

- Fire escape.
- Yeah.

[dramatic music]

* *

- I'll take the back.
- Okay.

- [gasps]

* *

[dog barking]

- Hey! Hey!

- Whoa!

- NYPD, stop!

* *

[horn honking]
[brakes screech]

Stop moving!

- Screw you!

- Come on!

Get up.
- Get off me!

Get your goddamn hands off me!

- SVU Portable,

send a unit
to transport a prisoner.

White Plains and Barnes,
by the L.

- [growls]
- Come on, let's go. Walk.

.

- You had probable cause
to arrest?

- She ran, violating parole.

- She almost got away,
except for the captain here.

- And did she say anything?

- "Get your goddamn hands
off me"?

- You Mirandized her?

- Yeah, she refused a lawyer.

She won't talk to anybody.

- And you had to cuff her?

- Believe me, I didn't want to,
but she tried to bite the uni.

- Well, we all know
that look, right?

She obviously feels
she has nothing to lose.

- But I can't help her
if she won't talk to us.

- Yeah.

Why don't we start
by taking off those cuffs?

Angela, I'm Captain Benson,
and this is ADA Carisi.

Now, I know
that it may not seem like it,

but we actually are
trying to help you.

Now, my officers told me
that they tried to talk to you,

but it didn't seem like
you were so cooperative.

So I'd like--I'd like
to take those cuffs off.

I need you to promise me
that we can just have

a calm conversation.

Would that be okay?

Bolson.

Thank you.

Thank you.
I think we've got it from here.

- Why am I here?

- You're here because we know
about your trial,

about the abuse case,
with Eddie Upshaw.

We read the transcript
and all your police interviews,

and we understand that you were

eight years old
when you met Eddie?

Is that when the abuse started?

- I was best friends
with his daughter, Christa.

She believed me,
but nobody else did--

not the cops at first,
and not Eddie's wife,

not that jury.

But there's nothing
anyone can do about that now.

- I believe you, Angela.

- We're not here
to talk about my trial.

- No, we're here to talk
about Eddie Upshaw.

[pensive music]

So can you tell me where
you were three nights ago?

- I don't remember.

- Well, Eddie was injured.

He was hit over the head,

and his back was carved.

- How is he?

- He's permanently scarred,
but he's alive.

I'll tell you this, he'll--

he'll never forget that date.

- Makes two of us.

- Did you do that?

- I only did what someone
should have done 20 years ago.

- Angela,
are you admitting guilt?

- Oh, I don't feel guilt
at all.

[laughs]

I just looked him up.

- Just after all these years?

- Yeah.

My PO warned me
about doing that.

He said if you go
looking for pain,

you're always gonna find it.

- And what did you find?

- Just some half-assed page
of his shop on social media.

He was just living life.

An ordinary, normal guy.

- Unremarkable.

- Yeah,
for exactly that reason.

After all these years, it's--

I saw that, and I--

I'd had enough.

- You threw your life away.

You do things like this,
and it lets guys like that win.

- He already won, Captain.

I remember him every day,
even on my best ones.

He didn't scar me once.

He's scarred me
every day since.

So what happens now?

I go back to prison?

Because trust me,

it was worth it.

* *

- We're gonna get you a lawyer,

and we're gonna
figure this out.

- I'll talk to the DA.

* *

- There she is.

- We heard some things
about you, Captain.

- Like what?

- Like you should quit
your day job and join the NFL.

Fast on your feet.

- Okay.
What happened with Angela?

- She confessed.

Benson and Carisi are with her
at the DA's office right now.

- Okay.

- Sam.

Everything all right?

- Can we talk?

- Of course.

How have you been, Sam?

- Okay.

Having a little trouble
sleeping.

You know.

- That's understandable.

- But I talked
to my mom and dad.

We made an appointment
with the therapist

Captain Benson recommended.

- Good.

- I wanna face things,
you know?

Deal with this for real.

- Makes sense.

- My dad always talks about
how a real man faces life.

How he doesn't run away
or hide or--or lie,

and I do that a lot.

My dad told me you arrested

the woman who did that
to Eddie.

- We did.

- Am I gonna end up like that?

- Like what?

- Wanting to hurt other people
because of what happened to me.

[somber music]

- That therapist
you're going to,

you're gonna work together

and make sure
that doesn't happen.

* *

- Hi.

Come on in.

How are you doing, Angela?

- I'm okay.

- We're here to discuss
the plea deal.

- Yeah. Take a seat, please.

So given Angela's history
with Eddie Upshaw,

the DA has agreed
to reduce the charges--

felony assault two.

- What does that mean?

- You would stay on parole,

but you'd have to complete
a psych program.

- And if you agree
and you complete the program,

then the court will
allow you to withdraw

your plea
for the felony assault.

And we can discuss
other charges.

- Or a dismissal.

- Your client committed
a serious crime--

sodomy, disfigurement.

This is the best
you're gonna get.

- You might not
have to go to prison.

You just have to be on parole
for a long time.

- It's a good deal.

* *

We'll take the plea.

- You know, Angela,
I hate what you did.

But I hate what was
done to you even more.

* *

We've seen this before.

- Yeah, cycle of abuse.

- So the question is, will we
ever be able to stop it?

- You want the real answer?
No.

- Well, it's not gonna stop us
from trying.
