It’s a great nugget that was used well in this storyline. We’ve known since the beginning of the series that somehow Voight is responsible for taking care of Lindsay in some capacity from a young age, but we still don’t know exactly how that came to be. The PD team doesn’t have the luxury of this type of memoir within their squad but there is some background to be used, particularly with Voight and Lindsay. While the large conglomerate of detectives are busy doing their jobs, it’s many of the smaller nuanced moments that stand out: Halstead attempting to explain his relationship with Lindsay to Rollins and Amaro, who look knowingly at each other, understanding that in this line of work there’s often some confusion about what “working together” can actually mean, the reference to Benson as “Mama Bear,” a role that she plays well and is comfortable with but that no one, until now, has actually called out, and Benson herself, lecturing Voight on how the use of force to get information out of a suspect can make things go south in a hurry, even going so far as to reference her former partner and his penchant for aggression in the interrogation room.Īll of this is a great use of history on the part of the SVU creative team. It all works in the end and thankfully the detectives are able to rescue the boy just in the nick of time. Every move is extremely intriguing and quite satisfyingly confusing in the effort to unravel who’s calling the shots as the head of the pornography ring. The countdown to the live feed and the desire to shut it down sets up a rapidly ticking clock for the team and almost immediately there are victims identified and questioned, which leads to a succession of suspects who are subsequently captured and interrogated.
