SVU: Barba returns and declares his unconditional love

Author: Partners in Crime Media August 24, 2022 Duration: 47:21
A domestic violence victim keeps letting her abuser back into her life, until she stabs him to death. Even though he's still on the outs with Benson, Barba agrees to defend the woman. After the trial, the two have a frank conversation about Olivia's feelings for Stabler and Barba's feelings for her. We're talking about Special Victims Unit season 23 episode 22 "A Final Call at Forlini's Bar." Our guest is Princess Weekes from PBS's "It's Lit" and the Netflix "Geeked" podcasts. Some plot points for this episode were taken from the 2010 case of Marissa Alexander.

Hosts Kevin Flynn and Rebecca Lavoie, from Partners in Crime Media, have a simple but compelling ritual: they sit down with a different special guest for each episode of this ...These Are Their Stories: The Law & Order Podcast to dissect a specific installment from the sprawling franchise. Their conversations zero in on those iconic "ripped-from-the-headlines" plots from *Law & Order*, *SVU*, and *Criminal Intent*, examining how real-world events were twisted into television drama. You’ll hear them break down the courtroom strategies, debate the detectives' methods, and share behind-the-scenes trivia, all while appreciating why this series remains, as they put it, the definitive original of police procedurals. The discussion is always deep, often funny, and fueled by a genuine fan’s perspective on the nuances that make each episode memorable. Tuning into this podcast feels like joining a lively, well-informed debate among friends who just happen to be obsessed with the gavel’s bang and the suspect’s confession. It’s a dedicated space for anyone who has ever argued about a verdict or wondered about the real story behind a fictional case.
