Rollins is back! Law & Order: SVU<\/a> Season 26 Episode 3 spoilers have her working a case that could easily be a backdoor pilot for her own show.<\/p>\n

The promo video is fast-paced, suggesting an action-packed episode that would fit in equally well on Law & Order: Organized Crime.<\/p>\n

These spoilers give us the first taste of Rollins in her new role as an Intelligence Officer.<\/p>\n

Law & Order: SVU Season 26 Episode 3 Spoilers Confirm Rollins\u2019 New Role<\/h2>\n

As reported over the summer, Rollins will be working for the new-to-the-franchise Intelligence Unit.<\/p>\n

Like the real NYPD Intelligence Unit, this department involves international travel and counter-terrorism work.<\/p>\n

Both of these things are common on police procedurals<\/a>, but we haven\u2019t really had any idea what it will look like for Rollins until now or how her new job will intersect with SVU.<\/p>\n

The promo video answers that question, though I\u2019m not sure I like this for an SVU episode. <\/p>\n

The story appears to involve a robbery victim who was tied up and sexually assaulted, which is standard SVU fare. Then Rollins enters and explains how this crime is tied to an international syndicate.<\/p>\n

SVU occasionally jumps into international crimes, but this always felt unrealistic to me, especially when Stabler went to Eastern Europe in pursuit of a suspect. <\/p>\n

Since when does an NYPD department have jurisdiction in other countries?<\/p>\n

It\u2019s especially annoying because there is another show in the franchise that would fit this story much better than Law & Order: SVU. <\/p>\n

Organized Crime involves crime syndicates, including those with ties to foreign countries, and Rollins has worked with Stabler before.<\/p>\n

Besides, I thought SVU was going back to basics<\/a>. Whatever was meant by that, these kinds of stories aren\u2019t it!<\/p>\n
