The two-hour finale kicks off with “American Dream,” an episode about a hate crime against a Muslim family that ends with the death of their daughter. A witness is deported and charges against the suspect are dropped, leading to tensions between communities.
In “Sanctuary,” the fallout from the release continues and Olivia Benson and Rafael Barba are caught between two families who are seeking justice.

“It’s compelling, it’s absolutely frightening,” Hargitay said. “It’s a rough episode and I am so incredibly proud of it.”
Peter Scanavino, aka Detective Carisi, echoed Hargitay’s words, calling the episode “gruesome.”
“There’s a lot of frustration in terms of trying to do what’s right…It’s just two hours, just settle in and say, ‘That’s going to be the night,’ and just watch,” he said.
