Freelance Bartender Makes Artisanal Drugged Cocktails - S21 E19 ’Law & Order: SVU’ After Showa

In SVU 21x19 "Solving for the Unkowns", Jill Bailey is arrested for driving her cupcake truck into a parked patrol car. At arraignment she realizes that she’d been assaulted. Luckily, Fin and Carisi are there to take her statement. Jill was on a date with a man named Luke (played by guest star Eddie Kaye Thomas) that she met on True Heart, a dating app. The detectives head to the bar where they met and get security footage to track down the suspect. Fin and Kat discover where Luke lives and pay him a visit. He admits to sleeping with Jill but says it was consensual. Benson says that this Drug Facilitated Rape was well planned and suggests this wasn’t his first time. Rollins finds a similar case in Brooklyn with a second victim. She identifies Luke as her rapist and Benson makes a public statement leading to more victims to step forward. One of the victims, Piper, had a bad reaction to the drugs and had a stroke. When SVU threatens Luke with harsher charges he turns on his accomplice, Ash, the bartender who makes “artisanal, tailored” cocktails allowing Luke to rape these women. SVU takes them down. Meanwhile, Rollins is promoted to Detective Second Grade and Kat casually comes out.
