- TriviaEarly on in this episode, Benson mentions to Amaro that there was a murder a few months back on the carousel. This is a reference to season twelve's Pop (2011).
- GoofsAfter the M.E. rolls the female body onto her back to look at her face, Benson notices the body has had its fingertips removed. The hand, however, is shown palm up with the victim back on her stomach. She hasn't been rolled over again as the very next shot is Avaro looking at a tattoo beside the victim's navel.
- Quotes
Kev: Ohh-kay. Well, I have nothing on file for yourczarina.com other than that someone wired in some money from offshore. That's all I got.
Detective Amanda Rollins: Okay, then give us the I.P. address and the wire info and we'll take it from there.
Kev: Uh, I can't do that because our clients pay us top dollar to maintain their privacy. So if you want that information, you've gotta come back in with a search warrant, okay?
Detective Amanda Rollins: I don't think you understand.
Detective Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Let's get something straight. First, spit that lollipop out, before I smack it out your mouth. You're not a five-year-old.
Detective Amanda Rollins: You make us get a warrant, we're gonna call the feds.
Kev: Uh, well, we're not doing anything illegal here.
Detective Amanda Rollins: This place here is a front, your server is illegal, and we're gonna hold you responsible for all of the crimes on all of the sites.
Detective Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: We're gonna shut this toilet down and put your little ass in jail. You understand me - jail. Where you're gonna be suckin' on somethin' else. Now, what you wanna do? You want that?
Kev: No, no I don't want that, so I'm gonna help you out. But can we not call in the feds on this? Is that cool?
Detective Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: We don't like them anyway.
Kev: Great, so we're on the same page. Um, this is the physical address of the last place that the website was logged into and changed. Okay. So that's the best that I can do for you. Okay? So are we cool now?
Detective Amanda Rollins: [dialing her phone] Yeah, yeah, we're done here.
Kev: Great.
FBI Agent: [bursting into the room] F.B.I., hands up now! Move away from your keyboards.
Kev: Come on, you lied to me?
Detective Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Yup!
Detective Amanda Rollins: Ain't life a bitch?
Russian Brides is the seventh episode of the 13th season of SVU. From story line point of view this episode was very well written. Direction was fast-pace which is totally my style as I hate slow & lengthy dialogs cop shows. Actors all did wonderful too, I really enjoyed each one of them but my favorite will be Hargitay (if that's not obvious already). So to conclude, I am excited to watch more of the coming episodes and will watch the previous seasons too.
I'm sure many of the loyal fans will consider this episode to be average, which might be so, but if you are a newbie like me, this one will pretty much blown your mind away!
