She’s a sergeant now.
She has that information and she’s giving it to all of the NYPD.
But more than anything else, fans should be ecstatic to see the fan-favorite again.
This series follows the Special Victims Unit, a specially trained squad of detectives in the New York City Police Department that investigate sexually related crimes.
Giddish assures viewers this is not the end of her return to the series.
Her conversation with Entertainment Weekly detailed what fans can expect from the episode.
She’s not a professor anymore and she joined, like I said, the NYPD Intelligence Bureau.
Their whole goal is to detect and disrupt criminal activity through the use of intelligence all throughout the world.
Like Rollin says to Benson, ‘It’s kind of eavesdropping on the whole world.’
Playing that aspect is something new for me and I think it’s perfect for Rollins.
Rollins new role is a large change in the squad’s dynamic.
Moving the pieces around theSVUboard like this is what the seasoned series needsafter many devestating episodesin the bag.
