Recap

Bruno encourages Churlish to go to a bar with him. She is mad because she doesn't want to see Muncy. Bruno says the secret to life is to make peace with the fact they're gonna die.

Meanwhile, in another bar some guys ask someone to set them up with women who will be "attentive." 

Some guys get into it with a redhead who seems to be one of their exes. The woman goes to the bar and gets a double tequila.

Muncy is out with Velasco and tells him that her brother is in town. She gets annoyed that Churlish shows up.

Churlish is also annoyed and Bruno insists she buy a round for Muncy and Velasco. She wants to go back to the Bronx. Another cop hits on her and is aware of the issues. It turns out the guy is Muncy's brother.

The redhead from earlier awakens in a field and manages to stumble into a convenience store and say she was raped before she collapses.

Velasco fprgets the name of Muncy's brother in the way into the squad. Benson tells Muncy to switch desks with Churlish and handle her triggers.

Bruno interrupts. They've caught the case with the redhead. Also Muncy and Churlish at the bar didn't go well. Benson is sure it will be better once Velasco cleans up his mess.

Abby's ex explains they were celebrating their divorce and that she called him this morning. He has a receipt for the brewery they were at.

Abby doesn't remember much. She had a double tequila and that was it. She says redheads don't respond to drugs the same way. She recalls waking up naked in a building on 5th Avenue and the men were ordinary guys who got pissed she woke up.\

The cops find out the bartender's name. Churlish finds a photo on social media of the bartender with Teddy. Muncy wants to talk to Teddy privately and Benson won't let her. Muncy refuses to let this go and doesn't want Churlish questioning him. Benson tells them again to get along with each other.

Muncy and Churlish observe the interrogation and Muncy gets mad that Churlish thinks Teddy is a rape apologist who might be involved. The cops talking to Teddy tell him to think about Muncy.

Abby IDs Arlo from a photo but is glad they aren't arresting him without more proof as she doesn't want an innocent man to get in trouble. She can't believe no one in any hotel recognized her. Why is she paying taxes if all this technology is useless? Muncy promises she won't give up.

There's no more leads. Churlish thinks Teddy should be used as a CI while Muncy spends most of the meeting insisting Teddy is a good guy. Muncy is upset that Velasco agrees with Churlish. Muncy says they can trust Teddy.

Teddy does well and the cops argue over whether he is acting. He gives the bad guys Churlish's photo, which Churlish takes responsibility with.

Muncy, Velasco, and Bruno are angry at Teddy. Teddy says Churlish asked him to. He doesn't see what the problem is. Bruno agrees.

Benson is also pissed at Churlish for not asking permission. Churlish says being in the Bronx with those incompetent idiots is like going undercover every day. Benson warns her ambition is better when not blind.

Muncy starts yelling about how she hates that "white shield." SHe thinks Churlish is like Iago. Bruno says Churlish is all right. They all head to the bar to keep an eye on things.

Bruno reassures Churlish she got this and tells her to pretend to drink a double shot and then go to the restroom.

The bartender tries to get Churlish to drink. Muncy creates a distraction while Churlish puts a lime in her mouth.

Churlish collapses in the bathroom.

The cops arrest the bartender. Benson sends Muncy to find Churlish and Muncy realizes Churlish is gone!

Velasco and Muncy see a car speed off and call it in. A man and a woman tell Churlish she's the entertainment at a party.

Muncy can't get ahold of Teddy! The cops close down the bar and find the drugged limes. Benson orders them to track Teddy's phone and learn Churlish  is being taken to a bachelor party. The guy takes Churlish to Teddy, who thinks she's fooling around and realizes she's really out.

Churlish awakens and needs to pee. Teddy offers to help her.

The cops arrive and find Churlish gave them a urine sample!

They raid a party and arrest the ringleader, who threatens Teddy after insisting on Muncy's name and badge number.

It's a trafficking operation run by two brothers. Everyone is willing to flip. Churlish shows up and says the hospital released her. Benson asks to see her.

Benson gets on Churlish about being reckless. She says that she needs to know Churlish is here because she cares about survivors and not because she wants a promotion. Churlish says her parents are therapists who put a lot of pressure on her to be perfect. Benson says that's dangerous and she wants her to be a team player from now on.

Everyone is getting ready to go home. Churlish learns the two rapists who hurt Abby have been hurt. She and Muncy go to tell Abby and go out for a drink after.
