"Becky, do you know where Novak is?" Olivia asked as she stood in front of Rebecca's desk.

"No, I don't. Isn't she supposed to be here?"

"Yes, and she's ten minutes late."

"She might be in her office hating me. Especially when I joked about her helping Picard escape."

"I don't think she could be that mad at you" Olivia said "I think she would be madder at Munch for suggesting that she helped Picard."

"Okay, then she might be in her office."

"Do you want to come with me?" Olivia said

"Sure, I don't have anything to do anyways."


They left the elevator and got off the floor where Casey's office was located. They walked to the front of the office and Olivia knocked on the door. A minute later, they realized that the lights were shut off and that there was no response.

"Is there any chance that she could be sleeping in her office?" Rebecca asked.

"It might be possible, but she rarely sleeps in her office. The couch she has in there is uncomfortable."

"I think we should just walk in."

"I agree."

Olivia opened the door and saw that there was no Casey Novak in sight. When Rebecca walked in, she was puzzled: Where could Casey be?

"This is weird" Rebecca said as Olivia walked over to Casey's desk.

"It's not as weird as what I just found on her desk."

Rebecca walked over and stood next to Olivia. She had a white piece of paper in her hands and said the note out loud:

"Casey is my favorite character in Law and Order SVU. She plays softball, I wonder if she's at the batting cages?"

When Olivia finished reading the note, she looked to see that Rebecca had the weirdest face that showed confused.

"What the hell is that?" Rebecca asked "Honestly, what the hell is that?"

"I have no idea" Olivia said.

"Did Casey write it?"

"Why would Casey say that she's her own favorite character?" Olivia said as she created a confused look.

"Sorry, I wasn't thinking" Rebecca said quietly "Do you think that Saul Picard kidnapped her?"

"I hope not! Who knows what Picard can do to Casey? Let's bring this note to the squad and see what they think."


When Elliot read the note out loud, the rest of the squad gave similar looks that Rebecca made after Olivia read that same note.

"What the hell?" Munch said "That makes no sense!"

"You're old, it wouldn't make any sense" Fin joked.

"That isn't funny!" Munch said in an annoyed tone.

"Do we know if the hand writing on this note matches Picard?" Rebecca asked.

"Morales doesn't think so" Elliot replied "He said that the hand writing is completely different from Picard's."

"So we have nothing?"

"Unfortunately, we don't have anything" Olivia sighed "The prep wrote gloves and there were no fingerprints anywhere else in Casey's office."

"Well this sucks" Munch said "We don't have an ADA"

"Try to be optimistic, Munch" Olivia said.

"Is there any chance that this idiot who kidnapped Novak gave us a clue?" Rebecca asked.

"The note does mention Batting cages" Fin said "Maybe our clue to finding Casey is at the batting cage where she goes to practice."

"Good idea, Fin. I'm going to go and see if I can find anything" Olivia said as she started walking out of the squad room. Elliot ran to catch up to her and grabbed her by the arm. She looked over at him and stopped walking.

"Are you sure you don't want me to go with you?" Elliot asked.

"I'll be fine, Elliot. I'm a detective and I can handle whoever it is that kidnapped Casey" Olivia said, trying to assure him that it will be all right.

"Fine, but you call me if anything comes up or if you need me."

"Fine."


Olivia got out of the cop car and ran into the batting cages. Casey was a close friend of hers, and she would do anything to find out who did this to her.

She walked in and saw that not many people were at the batting cages. Olivia walked to the front desk and saw a young girl working there.

"Can I help you?" the girl asked.

"Yes, I'm detective Benson. Have you seen a Casey Novak here today?" Olivia asked.

"The so-called bad ass District Attorney? No, I haven't. But there was a woman who asked me to give this to you."

The girl handed her the folded piece of paper to Olivia.

"Thanks" Olivia said as she turned around and ran out of the batting cage center. She opened the note and read:

"Olivia Benson, I know how you and Novak are close. Walk to your car, I'll be there."

Olivia knew that this person was suspicious. She slowly walked to her car with her gun in her back pocket. She didn't like the fact that this person was really creepy either.

When she walked to the driver's side, she opened the door and got in her car. When Olivia made herself comfortable in the driver's seat, she wasn't prepared for what happened next.

Glass from the driver's side window flew in her direction. Olivia covered her eyes as the glass cut her face and her arms. The door opened and someone grabbed her arm. She was dragged out of the car. The person hit her in the back of the head with a baseball bat and Olivia was knocked out instantly. The person opened the back door of their car and threw Olivia inside. They took out another piece of paper and scribbled another note. They threw it in the driver's seat of the police car and they walked to their own car. One minute later, the car flew out of the parking lot, and the sad part was that no one see Olivia Benson being attacked.
