A woman crashes the wedding of her therapist (TJ Thyne), claiming that he raped her. However, several people that SVU interviews claim that the woman had a history of stalking people over Facebook and Instagram, which damages her credibility. When the woman discovers that she is now pregnant, she confides in Benson her intention to abort the child, causing Benson to reveal to Rollins something that she overheard her own mother say years ago.
