Stabler goes to Isabella’s residence, the place she is enormously relieved to listen to that the police consider Roman is alive, although lacking. However she’s satisfied that her brother, Rocco, is not in jail in Italy and as an alternative is in the US, pulling Roman’s strings. And when Stabler has Vargas hack into the Italian jail’s safety cameras, they see that one other man seems to be posing as Rocco — that means the murderous Spezzano is on the unfastened.
Father DeLuca, the shady priest from the earlier episode, summons Stabler to his church. Whereas Elliot waits to speak to DeLuca, somebody in a nun’s behavior watches from the balcony however scurries away when El seems to be up. That is completely Rocco in a nun’s behavior, proper? When DeLuca approaches, he provides some pretend story about wanting to assist the youngsters in his parish, however all he actually desires to ask is that if they’ve discovered Roman. Stabler says he cannot talk about the case, and leaves.
Exterior, Becky texts Grandpa Elliot — and his pause to look out his telephone is the one factor that saves him from being nearer to his automobile when it blows up!
Randall swings by later that day to carry his brother, who’s remarkably superb after practically being cooked over simple. They speak about Randall intercepting the decision he thought was from Joe Jr. “I am telling you,” he says to Elliot, “I acquired a sense about this.” They agree that Randall will let Elliot know the following time a name comes by.
Father DeLuca finds Roman, shivering in an alley from the fever ensuing from his contaminated gunshot. He speeds the younger man to Isabella’s, the place she lays him out within the barn to deal with him. “Rocco is right here,” he says, gasping. “So is she.” Isabella instantly is aware of who her grandson is referencing — a girl named Lucia — and he or she comforts him as he babbles that Rocco and Lucia got here to the home, seeking to kill Isabella, so he promised to assist them in an effort to stave them off.
OK so perhaps I used to be improper about Rocco hiding by carrying a nun’s behavior across the parish. The particular person we noticed earlier is a girl — Sister Mary — however PSYCH! she’s actually Lucia, Rocco’s sister! Seems, Rocco is hiding at the back of the church, the place they’re torturing Father DeLuca till he provides up Roman’s whereabouts.
