Olivia, Fin, Carisi, Chief Dodds, Reese and Tony come to Amanda's apartment. They see Amanda clinging on to Christina. Amanda is shaking and she's scared. Her clothes are shredded from Patton trying to rape her.
"I need a blanket and EMT, now!" Olivia yells.
The SVU team brings Amanda a blanket so that she can be covered. An ambulance comes too. Reese strokes Amanda's hair while comforting her. Tony walks up to Patton and he wants to fight him.
"Mr. Rollins, I know that you want to protect your daughter but I don't want you to get hurt." Reese says.
"Amanda's still my little girl." Tony says.
Fin and Carisi are pacing around as what is happening. Patton runs out of Amanda's apartment before Tony tries to beat him up. Patton goes back to his hotel room.
Amanda is on a stretcher and she goes inside of the ambulance. Tony, Christina and the SVU team drive to the hospital. Declan arrives at the hospital worried about Amanda. Jesse is with the babysitter.
"Where's my fiancée?" Declan asks.
"She's in the emergency room." Reese replies.
Declan is shocked to learn that Amanda is in the emergency room. He runs his fingers through his hair. He doesn't know what to think or say.
"Oh my God. Did something happen to her?" Declan says.
"We don't know. She's so traumatized that she won't say anything." Olivia says.
Tony is angry and worried about what's happening. Christina brings him a coffee to relax him. He wants Patton out of New York and back at Atlanta.
"I can't believe this is happening again." Tony says.
"Don't worry, Mr. Rollins. We'll make sure that Patton never hurts your daughter again." Chief Dodds says.
"That son of a bitch traumatized her again." Tony says.
"Mr. Rollins, you need to stay calm for the sake of your daughter." Olivia says.
The doctor comes into the waiting room and sees Amanda's friends and family. They hope for good news. The doctor has some news for them.
"Mr. and Mrs. Rollins?" the doctor asks.
Tony and Christina stand up from their chairs along with the others. They are all worried about Amanda. They hope that she's okay.
"Yes. How is she?" Tony asks.
"Your daughter was sexually assaulted but she was not raped." The doctor replies.
"Thank God she wasn't raped. My wife isn't her mother." Tony says.
"I'm her stepmother." Christina says.
"Mrs. Rollins, we have a therapist talking to your stepdaughter." The doctor responds.
Tony is relieved that Amanda wasn't raped. The SVU team is worried about Amanda. They want to see Amanda but Declan wants to be alone with Amanda.
"Can we see her?" Declan asks.
"Yes, after the rape kit." The doctor replies.
Amanda is getting a rape kit done. After the rape kit, the doctor arrives and the gang stands up. The doctor tells them that they can see Amanda. Her father goes with the doctor to see his daughter. Tony enters the room and he sees his daughter in a hospital bed.
"What happened to my daughter?" Tony asks.
The nurse tells Tony that Amanda was sexually assaulted. Amanda tells him about Patton assaulting her.
"It was Patton. He assaulted me." Amanda says.
"What did you say?" Tony asks.
"He assaulted me, Daddy." Amanda cries.
Amanda cries in her father's arms. Tony comforts his daughter while the nurse tells the doctor to tell Amanda's friends and family what happened.
"It's okay. I'm never going to let him hurt you again." Tony says.
Christina and the SVU team come and see Amanda. Declan waits with Tony.
"Amanda, you have to tell Murphy that Patton assaulted you." Fin says.
"I can't tell Declan." Amanda cries.
Amanda doesn't want to tell Declan about Patton assaulting her. She fears that he might leave her. She fears that he won't want to marry her.
"Why? Amanda, why can't you tell him?" Olivia asks.
"He'll leave me. He won't want to marry me if he knew that I was assaulted." Amanda cries.
"Hey, Amanda. It's going to be okay. Your mom left you and I'm sure Murphy won't leave you because he loves you." Carisi says.
Christina comes into her stepdaughter's hospital room.
"Declan loves you, Amanda. He wouldn't be here if he didn't want to marry you." Christina says.
Christina lays next to Amanda and she strokes her stepdaughter's hair. Amanda knows that she has to tell Declan that Patton sexually assaulted her. He needs to know that Patton tried to rape her but he didn't.
