Spoilers ahead for Episode 2 of Law & Order Season 23, called "Human Innovation."
The detectives and prosecutors of Law & Order were out of their element in "Human Innovation." The victim of the week was a prominent tech CEO, and what could have been a straightforward trial was complicated by a confession being thrown out and the possibility that video evidence may have been deepfaked. Detective Riley, who debuted on L&O in last week's premiere in the 2024 TV schedule, accidentally made a mistake that could have sabotaged the case completely. Between that and the preview for the next episode, it looks like viewers are about to get a look into Riley's past, which gives me hope for some answers about Cosgrove.
