What to Expect from Law & Order: Special Victims Unit Season 27 Episode 5: Feed the Craving
Amanda Rollins is back as a full-time SVU sergeant on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit Season 27 Episode 5, “Feed the Craving.” While we have seen Rollins working with everyone but Griffin, it’ll be interesting to see how her reinsertion into the squad plays out.
Now that Rollins is coming back, Benson’s squad will be made up of two captains, two sergeants, and two detectives. Even though this seems to be a great combination of expertise, how will the ranks affect how the team works?
So far, Curry has known that even though her rank is the same as Benson’s, the squad belongs to Olivia. Fin will definitely not have an issue with Rollins being a sergeant, too. Can Griffin adjust to the way this squad works?
It will also be interesting to see how Rollisi evolves now that Rollins is back to being Carisi’s co-worker. There weren’t any issues in the past, but this show always find ways to surprise us.
Here’s everything you need to know about this episode, including the air date, cast, promo, and how to watch.
