He and Detective Tutuola (Ice-T) are tipped off by two witnesses to the kidnapping, and are led upstate in hopes of rescuing Annie before the Bowery Stalker adds to his list of murder victims. A.D.A. Cabot (Stephanie March) is eager to help bring the killer into custody so that she may pursue a harsh conviction. Christopher Meloni, Mariska Hargitay and Dann Florek also star.
