Both options seem kind of farfetched (what if Eames's bullet had killed him before he could say anything? how could he come up with a plan like this spur of the moment?) but that's how I interpreted that last part. Benson adjusts to motherhood Amaro arrests a young sex worker with connections to Noahs mother.

Led by courageous and compassionate veteran Captain Olivia Benson, the NYPDs elite Special Victims Unit investigates crimes that are ripped from the headlines. I'm not sure if Chance actually intended to be killed by the police all along or if he came up with this idea spur of the moment after Eames shot him though. Watch Law & Order: Special Victims Unit Season 16. By confessing to the murder himself as a dying declaration, Chance exonerates Oskar Landau and indirectly also exonerates his own father Jonas Slaughter (since there's no way to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Landau committed the murder under Jonas's orders, etc.) &0183 &32 Law & Order SVUs Olivia Benson is in Chicago helping Intelligence with a rape/murder case similar to a case in New York from a decade ago, so she calls in Fin and Amaro for assistance.

He was hired by Jonas Slaughter to commit the murder and also helped Jonas create the various rabbitholes that distract Goren and Eames for like 90% of the episode (the stuff with the dominatrix, the stuff with the professor, etc.)Ĭhance's confession at the end was done as a last resort scheme to cast doubt on the whole case. Here's what I took away from the story: the person who physically killed the victim is Oskar Landau, the 'oil company security expert' (aka 'assassin') who was staying in the hotel room next door to the victim. It's probably the most structurally complicated story from that season, and maybe even from the whole show, in the sense that there are a ton of moving parts and intentional misdirection being perpretrated by the main villain as part of his plot. I have watched this show from season one for 22 years and think it is an incredible show. OK, I actually just finished watching this episode last night and I was so confused that I had to rewind to the begin and take detailed notes just to make sure I understood exactly what was going on. I am so glad it was not cancelled with all of the negative publicity concerning TV shows portraying the police force.
