Law & Order: Organized Crime

In the nation's largest city,

the vicious and violent members of the underworld

are hunted by the detectives

of the Organized Crime Control Bureau.

These are their stories.

We all know that Henry's death...

Paved the way for your casino to move forward.

Did you have anything to do with this?

I would never do anything

that would jeopardize your trust in me.

You know how your husband and his family run their business.

Are you asking me to spy on my family, take me down?

To help you see things.

I have some very important information to share.

Nervous?

You kidding? I'm excited.

Good. Me too.

Oh, look, how beautiful.

Not as beautiful as you.

You know, it just warms my heart

to see two people in love.

Looking for a special occasion?

Uh, we're... we're getting married.

Congratulations. Thank you.

I'm Kevin, this is Amy. What's your name?

I'm Jay. Jay.

Jay will be our first point of contact.

Solid tip from a CI puts Jay's store

at ground zero of our operation this afternoon.

Means we need eyes on the inside,

and that'll come from a young couple.

How'd you two meet?

Uh, I have this pug, Louie, and I take him

to the dog park every day.

And Kevin was kind of just always there.

Only, um, he didn't have a dog.

It actually took him a while

to work up the courage to ask me out.

I guess I took pity on him.

That's adorable.

So is there anything in particular you're looking for?

Person we're really looking for

is Mikeal Abramov, Israeli national, based in Europe.

His international crime syndicate

has been on the NYPD's radar for months.

I'm talking drugs, guns, human trafficking,

all bankrolled by gold he smuggles in from Sudan.

Once he gets the gold to the States, he melts it down,

he makes jewelry out of it,

and he sells it to local businesses

like Jay's at 80¢ on the dollar.

So he's laundering the gold? Yeah.

And then he takes that money and he launders it

through his other businesses.

We shut off the gold valve, the guns,

drugs, human trafficking, all dries up.

When's the wedding?

Oh, we're still deciding.

Yeah, her, uh, her parents don't want to contribute, so.

Maybe if you would ask for that raise,

they wouldn't have to contribute.

You're really gonna bring that up again, are you?

That's really cute.

They're having their first fight.

Wait till they have kids.

Leader, I got a subject fitting the description

of a courier carrying a duffel.

Yep, that's definitely her.

I'm alerting the happy couple.

Could you excuse me for a moment?

Yeah.

Jamie!

Oh!

Elliot?

Tia.

She called him Elliot, bro.

So maybe she's Vice. Nah.

She reeks federal.

Possibly a foreign agency.

You're both wrong.

Tia is actually Alice George,

a CPA from Long Island, unmarried and looking

for her next adventure.

So mystery solved.

So she didn't tell you she was coming to town?

What, working the same case?

I would have told you that, but, you know.

Undercover work, that's her specialty, so.

What was your relationship like with her in Italy?

Oh, I've never seen that face before.

Sorry about that.

What did I miss?

Detective Stabler was telling me about the work

you guys did together overseas.

Oh, boy.

I hope you didn't tell her the truth.

Agent Leonetti and I worked a number

of high profile racketeering cases

and we had some big busts.

When I let him tag along.

It's good to see you again.

It's nice to see you, Tia.

Agent Leonetti, it's usual courtesy for an outside agency

to check in locally so that we don't have confusion

like we had earlier.

I know, and I'm sorry.

My office will transfer the case files

so you can see what we managed to get on Abramov so far.

I was just having to move so fast

after we learned he was in town.

Abramov is here?

My ROS unit received reliable intel

that Abramov is coming to town for 48 hours

to reset some pipelines and receive a big shipment.

If we can catch him with that gold,

it's silly not to combine resources on this, right?

Sorry to interrupt.

Jay's in the chair right now, so whoever wants first crack.

Thank you very much. We'll be right there.

You ready?

Joint operation with a foreign agent?

There's gonna be rules.

I have to get this cleared first.

She can watch.

This is my case.

Look, you're in New York.

It's our case.

But if you behave yourself, I'll see if you can tag along.

Hey, great job in the store today.

I do hope you and Jet make up.

Italian police. I knew it!

Well, since you're the one who set up the deal with him,

anything you wanna tell me?

Yes. I'm going in there with you.

No.

Tia, you're not.

Who is this new Elliot following all these rules?

This is not the cop I remember.

Same cop, different rules.

You're really gonna make me watch?

No.

You can hold this too.

Well, at least put on a good show.

Hey, Jay.

Should I get a lawyer?

Are you asking my advice?

Have a seat.

I've never been arrested before.

Really?

Well, I got to tell you, from where I'm standing,

you seem to be holding up pretty well.

But if you want a lawyer, then I'll get you a lawyer.

I just hope he's not very good.

Why shouldn't he be a good lawyer?

Well, if he's good, he'll probably get you bail,

and that's gonna be awful for you.

Why would that be awful?

Well, Abramov has to know you're in custody, right?

The chance that no one noticed the police foot chase

in front of your store in broad daylight,

didn't alert him?

Nah, he's got to know,

especially with him being in town.

Abramov is here?

Yeah, I mean, how do you think he's gonna react?

Gold is gone.

We're not giving back that money.

You.

I just buy the jewelry from his couriers.

I don't know where it comes from.

No, Jay.

Let's not do that.

Why do you think we were in your store today?

Because we got a court order to tap your phones,

and we had an informant, former coworker.

They told us everything that you were doing.

So.

Was it Sarah? Janet?

I'm not at liberty to say.

But look, you're asking my advice...

Talk.

Give me names.

Or hope that if you get out,

we get to Abramov before he gets to you.

So how'd I do?

Who was it?

Sarah or Janet?

Neither.

I didn't have an informant.

Let's go, ladies!

And no bathroom breaks today.

Mikeal!

I didn't know you were coming.

Because I didn't want you to know.

Just like you didn't want me to know

you've been skimming off the top here.

What? No.

I haven't been skimming. I... Hey, hey.

I have my eyes here,

and I make them tell me everything, hmm?
