- 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.

- Fin, I'm sorry.
- Where are you?

- Something's come up.

- You're the guest of honor.
Everybody's waiting on you.

What's going on?
- I'm not quite sure yet.

I got a 10-13,
a vic near Center Street,

so I'll be there
as soon as I can, okay?

Thank you.

Captain Benson.
What happened here?

- Car bomb.
We're taking the vic to Mercy.

Doesn't look good.

Kathy?

Oh, my God.

- Kathy, Kathy.
What's happening?

Her BP's crashing.
- Liv.

Liv.

You okay?

I followed Elliot here.
I barely talked to him.

Kathy just went into surgery.
How did this happen?

Why?
- Rollins is at the scene.

A uni told her
it was a rental car

parked on the street.

Kathy went to get in,
and the bomb went off.

Arson thinks it misfired
and threw her clear.

- A rental car--
where are they in from?

- They've been living in Italy.

Elliot had to come in

for some type
of a task force meeting,

and he and Kathy
decided to make it a trip.

He just called me
out of nowhere

and told me he was coming.

I may have spoken
about your award.

I thought enough time
had gone down between you two.

- Okay, a task force, what--
who's he working for?

- NYPD.

He's the international liaison
in Rome.

- Since when?
- Look, this is all I know.

You're gonna have to ask him.

- Fin.
- Hey.

I'm here for
whatever you need, man.

- Appreciate it.
- Okay, how's Kathy?

- They're still
working on her--

burns, concussion,
fractured pelvis.

What do we know?

- Local precincts
are canvassing,

and our explosion guys
are tearing that car apart.

Captain, if you don't mind,
can I get back to the scene?

- Go, go, go, go.

- Shouldn't have even
been driving.

I got a call.
I slipped away.

I gave her the keys.

She was worried we were gonna
be late for your award.

I meant to give you a call...
- It's okay.

- That we were coming.
- Elliot, please, no.

- Tell me she's gonna be okay.

- Kathy's a fighter.
You know that.

- Dad.
- Hey.

- What the hell happened?
- Um, we're not sure right now.

Um, she's alive,
and she's in surgery,

and that's what we know,
so let's go upstairs.

Come on.

- Olivia, you're here.
- Of course.

I'm just here to help.

Whatever you need.

- Come on.

Anything yet?
- Nothing.

Car was parked
under the bridge.

No witnesses.
- Traffic cams?

- Still going through footage.

Also, this may be unrelated,
but there was a curfew protest

just south on Center Street.

Bunch of guys in pickup trucks
and flags

met by counter-protestors.

Someone started targeting
police officers,

and they lit two police vans
on fire on Madison Street.

- That's two blocks
from where the car blew up.

Any arrests?
- Dozen or so.

- Talk to all of them.
- Okay.

- Captain.
-

- I heard what happened.
How's the victim?

- Seriously injured
but hanging on.

So you know, the victim
is the wife

of my former partner
Detective Elliot Stabler.

- So I was told.
I thought he left the force.

- He did, but apparently
he's NYPD's man in Rome now.

- Any idea why he's in town?

- Department meetings,
I don't know.

- Local precinct on the scene?

- They are, and they're
doing everything they can,

but you know
there was a riot tonight.

- I'm aware.
Cops were targeted.

Were the Stablers
driving an NYPD vehicle?

- It was a rental, and...

I'm close with the family.

I was hoping that we
could take the lead on this.

- Family--he's got kids?
- Five.

I've known them all
since they were in diapers.

- I'll put a call into One PP.
- Thank you.

- To be clear, you're running
the investigation, not him.

- Course.

- Hey, how's Kathy?
- Touch and go.

- Arson said
she's lucky to be alive.

The blast went up and back,

throwing her out
before the fireball.

- Any witnesses?
- No, it's a quiet block.

All the action
was on Center Street,

but there was an NYPD placard
in the windshield,

so local detectives are asking
if any of the protestors

knew about the award ceremony.

- Sergeant Tutuola.
Okay.

Intelligence picked up a guy
who threw a Molotov cocktail

into an empty NYPD van
three blocks south from here.

They're bringing him in.

- The government's
using the pandemic

as an excuse to deprive us
of our liberty.

If my brothers and I
don't fight back now,

we'll lose all our rights.
- Fight back?

By bombing police cars?

- You do this?

- That's Antifa.
- That's you.

- Proves my point.
Big Brother's everywhere.

Cell phone monitoring,
facial recognition.

- So it is you?
- This isn't real.

Someone photoshopped me
into this.

I'm being set up.

- Jacob Peters, unemployed,
five arrests in the past year

all for protests--
including D.C. January 6--

for arson, vandalism,
brandishing a gun,

and punching reporters.

- Well, he wasn't wrong
about Big Brother.

I was able to pull
his Google search history,

and he has been going
down a rabbit hole

of YouTube conspiracy videos
for 10 to 12 hours a day

for the last five years.
- Yeah.

He believes
that COVID is a hoax,

the election was rigged.

I mean, he shows up
at these rallies

in paramilitia garb
and just tears it up.

- And he thinks he's a patriot.
He hasn't asked for a lawyer?

- Not yet.
- Good.

Better--anything put him
near Kathy Stabler's blast?

- No, but he was ID'd
by multiple UCs tonight

as an instigator,
and they found explosives,

zip ties, and a Taser
in his backpack.

- Uni at the hospital
says you picked up a suspect.

- Elliot.
- This him?

- Uh, we just started
talking to him.

- Doesn't matter what I say.

You're just gonna railroad me.

- No, that's not--
that's not what we're doing.

Look, I know
what you're talking about

when you say
we're losing our rights.

- I know.
So you understand.

If we don't bring things
to a head fast,

you'll lose your guns too.

- What's his deal?

He's targeting cops
to protect cops?

- Yeah, there's a lot
of this lately.

These guys have been enabled
for the last four years,

so they're not
backing down now.

- Hi, I'm Elliot Stabler.
Who are you?

- I'm Officer Katriona Tamin.
- ADA Dominick Carisi.

- So the ADA is here.
You like him for this?

- Well, we know he's good
for two other firebombs

on cop cars tonight.
- He has a record.

He's been escalating.

- How would he make me
or Kathy out as cops?

- You had a--you had a placard
in your windshield.

- Maybe you saw something.

This car.

The woman may not survive.

- That blast,
yeah, I heard it.

I was half a block away.
- So you were nearby?

- Let me talk to him.
- I can't.

- He just put himself
a half block away,

close enough to see her
get in the car.

- And set off
the bomb remotely?

Yes, it's possible.
- It's an opening.

Let's work it.

- Detective, all due respect,
but you shouldn't even be

in the squad room right now.
- Said the lawyer to the cop.

Look, guys like this,
whatever their stripes,

basically, they're terrorists.

I've worked plenty
of these cases

over the last few years.
I need to talk to him.

- You need to be
at the hospital.

I'll behave.

No "about,"

Mom's awake.
Let's go.

is that Kathy Stabler

is conscious.
- Can she make a statement?

- Stabler's on the way
to the hospital.

- If she can tell us anything,
another detective

needs to be in that room.

- Carisi, he's not gonna
blow the case.

End of the day,
he's a good cop.

have history,

but he can't be
anywhere near this,

and Jacob here,
now he's claiming

that he was just following
some Antifa thug

who threw a Molotov cocktail
into Kathy's car.

- It wasn't a Molotov cocktail.
- And he doesn't know that.

If I had to guess,
he's good for the first two,

but not Kathy Stabler.

- He's saying
all three were Antifa.

We know he's good
for two of 'em.

- Right, Molotov cocktails.

Look, he's not
going anywhere, Elliot, okay?

We're searching his apartment,

- Your former partner
always this aggressive?

He shouldn't have
even been in the precinct.

- This is on me.

My sense from his affect

this is a cop who's used
to taking things over the line

and getting away with it.
- You went through his record?

- Multiple firearm discharges,
six fatal shootings,

and I'm still going through
the IAB logs.

Disposition on multiple charges,

oh, and referred
for counseling.

- We were both referred.

- Why did he resign
from the force?

There's no official reason.
-

His last shooting
was a 16-year-old girl

who brought a gun
into the stationhouse,

and, you know, my guess...

my guess is
that he just didn't want

to go through the hoops--
IAB interviews, counseling.

He was done.
- Guess?

Come on, he didn't tell you?

- We never spoke after he left.

Look, he got too rough
back in the day...

But it wasn't
just testosterone.

It was because
he cared so much.

making excuses for him,

Forgive me if I have my doubts.

A grunt former marine,
a night college degree,

and a CPI like this?

He's off the grid
for six years,

and somehow
the old boy network

got him back on the force.

- Because
he's a good detective.

- And lucky.
It wouldn't happen today.

but maybe they'll get lucky

and find prints on the inside
of the cell phone case.

- Do they know
the vic's spouse was NYPD?

- They do.

For what it's worth,
arson says

this doesn't look like Antifa

or some improvised
Boogaloo device.

It was more sophisticated,

so it might be
terrorist-related.

about Stabler.

They wanna know
what he's involved with.

money laundering.
They were hiding out in Puglia.

I gotta get back.

- For the hundredth time,
I don't know anything

about this car.

- We found the phone
that was used as a trigger.

There was DNA on it,
and it's gonna be yours.

- Did you?

You know, now that I
think about it,

I lost a phone in Coney Island.
You have my new phone.

- Yeah, we do, and did you know
that if you turn off tracking,

we can still trace it
to under the Manhattan Bridge

on Friday night
when the bomb went off?

- I don't think so.
I was at the shop...all day.

Ask my boss!
- Why?

Because he'll lie for you?

- I don't know anything
about bombs.

- Really?

So how did you blow up
your neighbor's house?

When you were 17?

- Whoever told you that,
they're lying.

- Yeah.
- You can ask my old neighbor.

I had nothing to do
with that either.

- How long has this kid
been shadowboxing with them?

- All night.

- Keep him talking.

He thinks he's brighter
than he is.

- Captain, I made some calls.

Turns out young Sacha
isn't connected.

He's more of a wannabe.

That Iron Triangle garage
has been linked

to VIN switches on stolen cars
and insurance fraud.

- That's all penny ante.

That's a big step up from that
to a hit on a cop's wife.

- Or a cop.

It's more likely
that Elliot was the target.

- There's another
possibility here.

What if Sacha was set up?

- Carisi,
Sacha is still our guy.

- Yeah, even if he is,
maybe he didn't realize

it was a hit on a cop.
Who knows what they told him.

- Yeah, they might have
told him it was an arson job

for insurance.

- Either way, I think
it's time we arraign him.

- You do that,
he's gonna lawyer up.

- Exactly what I'm hoping for.

Listen, if he's a patsy,
and he's looking at 25 years--

- Then a lawyer will get him
to cooperate.

- Counselor, are you with us?

- Oh, sorry, Your Honor.

Your Honor, my client
is pleading not guilty,

and we've requested
that he be released

on his own recognizance
pending dismissal

of the shoplifting charge.
- Wrong case, Counselor.

This is Sacha Lenski

charged with attempted murder
of a police officer.

- Okay.

Sorry again.
Just got this.

- Uh, Your Honor, can I request
a ten-minute recess

to bring my colleague Mr. Cryer
up to speed on this?

- Make it five.

- Hi, let's talk.

Your client needs to know

that in addition
to attempted murder,

he's also looking at use of
a weapon of mass destruction,

which carries
a maximum sentence

of life in prison
and use of a destructive device

in connection
to a crime of violence.

That's another 30 years.
- I get it.

You had me at mass destruction.
- Nah, I'm gonna keep going.

Because he also needs to know
that the victim

was a cop's wife,
and every corrections officer

is gonna know that
from the moment he starts

his life sentence.

- I take it you're looking
for something.

- I didn't know
it was a cop car.

I swear to God.
- Okay, that's enough, Sacha.

- No, that's actually
a good start,

but if this was a job for hire,

then we have to know
who hired your client.

- He cooperates,
he gets full immunity?

- Nah, not on attempted murder
he doesn't,

but if his information
plays out

and he's willing to testify
in front of a grand jury,

that would--
that would mitigate.

When your client's
ready to make a proffer,

I'm all ears.

- Excuse me.

Sacha Lenski,
don't say another word.

- Excuse me, he's my client.

- Yeah, we're in the middle
of a deal here.

- Not anymore.

I've been retained
by his family.

My client is innocent
of all charges,

and we look forward

to our day in court
to prove that.

- All right, Mr. Lenski,
you don't have

to go along with this.
You already have a fine lawyer.

- Yeah, and now
he's got a better one.

Perry Mason over here
didn't even know

what my client
was charged with.

- Spencer Cochran?
Guy's a major player.

There's no way
that Sacha's family

could afford him.
- No.

Whoever he was working for
brought Cochrane in.

- Where is Sacha now?
- He's on his way to Rikers.

He pled not guilty.

I did manage to get
the bail set at 10 million.

- You better get him
in protective custody.

- It's already been arranged.

- That's Stabler.
I'll let him know.

I gotta--I gotta--

Oh, my God, Eli is in Rome.
I gotta get him back.

- No, no, I'll do that.

You just make sure
this son of a bitch

goes down for murder.

- Kathy Stabler didn't make it.

- I'm sorry.

How's he doing?
- Not good.

- Okay.

I'll arraign Sacha Lenski
for murder.

Up the pressure.
- Don't get your hopes up.

Whoever's paying for his lawyer

is not gonna let him
take a deal.

- Well, maybe Sacha
needs to figure that out.

- How about we just
pull him out of Rikers?

- Yeah, that's a good idea.

Wake up, scumbag.

He's gone.
