CRIME ORGANISE FULL MOVIE SERIES

Regardless of the many, many ways this man has fucked up, he’s not what he fears he is. Now, in Law & Order: Organized Crime 2×18, we’re seeing the obvious battle between Elliot’s valid regrets, in terms of the times he wishes he had been there for his family but wasn’t…and the misconception he seems to have about himself, deep down, about what kind of father and husband he was.

The series has already used the contrast between Elliot and Frank to show Detective Stabler is (and always was) a better cop than Detective Donnelly. In the first place, yeah, Detective Guilt is still…feeling guilty. After mother and baby are in recovery, there’s even a hug between partners.īasically, it’s a series of distorted “Paternity” throwbacks, and if they left viewers unsettled, that was almost surely the point.Īside from giving longtime fans of Stabler a chance to suffer through the memories, there’s a lot to draw from these scenes. While he’s in the middle of doing what feels like betraying his current “partner,” he winds up being the one who’s there when it counts for the partner’s wife. I don’t think anyone reading this didn’t already know all of those things…But it’s all worth pointing out because Organized Crime 2×18 not only shows us Elliot’s pained reaction to (quite obviously) remembering that he made those mistakes, but also gives him a jarring redux of it all. (Which, as a reminder, makes Kathy’s shitty letter a billion times shittier.) And Liv was the first person to hold Eli, not either one of his parents. It was Her (yes, with a capital H)-Olivia-by Kathy’s side when she went into labor and almost died. It was…the aforementioned former partner who was taking his very pregnant wife to a doctor’s appointment when all hell broke loose. “Well, as long as you were there when it counted.”īecause, often, he wasn’t “there when it counted.” Certainly not during the darkest time in his former partner’s life…and also, memorably, he was absent for the most traumatic part of his youngest kid’s birth. And then, he gets a chance to feel like he’s crawling out of his skin, courtesy of Bridget: And Elliot is…not exactly settled by all of that. But as it turns out, this is Law & Order: Organized Crime, so it was setup for more…and kind of an attack in its own right.ĭuring a baby shower, Frank Donnelly says some mess about how he’s not going to be in the delivery room, “biting off the umbilical cord” (which, uh, that’s… not how it works, my dude), when his wife, Bridget, gives birth. There’s a scene at the beginning of “Change The Game” that, on most other series, would have been a throwaway.

Or, at least, we’re always here for the bigger picture. We’re hoping, as viewers, that we’re getting that particular series of kicks to the gut for the purposes of finally moving forward there, too.Īs has usually been the case with this series, for as many twists and turns as the investigation takes, it’s really all there for the character development anyway. “Change The Game” also, at times, seemed to uncomfortably echo Elliot’s more recent past-namely, the years he spent as Olivia Benson’s partner at SVU. The good news, though, is that taking the time for Elliot to deal with with his wounds can only lead to him actually being better in the end. It also hurt like hell to witness it all. Regardless of how dangerous or stressful his undercover operation with Donnelly and the Brotherhood may be, no matter how much he might have gotten caught off guard and beaten up by Braden, it was the episode’s emotional center that really resonated most. Law & Order: Organized Crime 2×18 added yet another layer of pain to Elliot Stabler’s already-complicated feelings about his father.
