Delia Wilson (Brooke Smith) and her attorney meet with Detective Benson (Mariska Hargitay) and Bureau Chief ADA Paula Foster (Paget Brewster) and blames Cragen for Carissa's death, saying Cragen saw more of her girls. Believing otherwise, Benson goes to see Cragen at Riker's, where he admits to using the escort service after realizing how lonely he was during his undercover operation last year. Meanwhile, Detective Cassidy (Dean Winters) continues his work deep undercover in Bart Ganzel's (Peter Jacobson) prostitution ring. After discovering a bug in his home, Ganzel wonders whether Cassidy, the police, or Delia planted it. Ganzel then arranges to have Cassidy murdered using two rookie cops on his payroll. Benson is frustrated by her new captain, Harris (Adam Baldwin) and Internal Affairs, trying to investigate a good undercover cop versus two rookies. Benson and ADA Foster turn Ganzel's attorney (Reg E. Cathey) against him by playing taped recordings of Ganzel criticizing him behind his back. Benson learns that Ganzel isn't the only one involved in the setup on Cragen; Foster is on Delia's payroll, having started taking bribes to pay for treatment for her sick daughter. Benson has Foster and everyone taking bribes arrested, including congressmen and prosecutors. Cragen is released from prison, the charges dropped, but he says that reputation is still damaged, and that he won't be back at SVU yet due to the lengthy reinstatement process. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Above Suspicion (Law & Order: Special Victims Unit)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
