Prominent concert violinist Zach McGowan goes amuck in his birthday suit at a New York hotel. When the smoke clear he's accused of rape and he's been drugged having no memory of the incident.
The SVU squad of course catches the case but it gets compromised when Kelli Giddish's fugitive sister Lindsay Pulsipher gets involved in the case. Making matters worse is Rollins's mother Virginia Madsen up from Atlanta to help out her younger offspring. What's a mother to do? It's all one big mess. Good thing that SVU's new commander Lt. Olivia Benson keeps a cool head.
Also SVU gets another addition, Sgt. Andy Karl son of Chief Peter Gallagher. That sets up some future conflicts as it is not clear whether he's Mariska Hargitay's number 2 or a pipeline to his father.
Madsen and Pulsipher are really good. Especially Pulsipher, the picture of one spoiled brat grown up.
