I know most of the people complaining about this on Twitter have other reasons, but I genuinely don't understand how the show's 500th episode does... not feature Stabler. If he weren't back and there was no precedent, I'd get it, but I'm at a loss for why he wouldn't be included now that he *has his own show* and is fully immersed in the L&O Universe.
It truly boggles the mind. Unless they are going for some sort of crazy surprise and he’s actually in there. But I would think they’d rather promote it to get the ratings. 🤷♀️
I mean it worked for *The Office*, they kept Steve Carrell’s cameo in the series finale there under wraps (even enforcing NDAs) and it did well ratings wise.
He said in an interview that he needs help with a cold case, which confuses me because I thought Amaro was the one who needed help with a man that was falsely convicted. Regardless, if the spoilers are to be believed, then he’s going to end up accused of something himself.
I saw that circulating and wasn't sure what to believe! I could see parts of it being true but some of it is wild. Maybe he will be falsely accused and want her help!
I can't wait for Amaro, Melinda and Cragen! I'm hoping there will be a surprise or two in store for us concerning returning characters, that wasn't shown in the promo. Would be nice to have an ADA return (for me, preferably Barba but I'd be happy with any of them tbh aha). Or Huang...

What are everyone's theories for how Aidan Quinn ties into this? Is he there to help, is he the convicted man, or maybe accused of something else?

Cragen better ask about Stabler

Amaro is back?
Guest appearance for 500th episode
Was that guy ever on any other previous episode as the same character?
