Spoilers ahead for Episode 3 of Law & Order: SVU Season 25 on NBC, called "The Punch List."
The milestone 25th season of Law & Order: SVU hasn't been easy on Olivia Benson, even by SVU standards. She has been haunted by the disappearance of a young girl who she'd promised to find, and that affected her to the point that she took a personal day in "The Punch List" to support Maddie's mom. There was enough happening in this episode without cramming in a crossover, but there was one moment folowing a development for Benson that I'd say counts as a subtle nod to Law & Order: Organized Crime, and it just reminded me of how much I appreciate the continuity between the two shows in the 2024 TV schedule.
