An upcoming episode of \u201cLaw & Order: SVU\u201d Season 27 is going to be a real mixed bag for \u201cRollisi\u201d and their enthusiasts, series stars Kelli Giddish and Peter Scanavino tell TVLine.<\/p>\n
At a recent red carpet celebrating the 25th season of sister show \u201cLaw & Order,\u201d the \u201cSVU\u201d actors offered some scoop on the cop-and-lawyer couple\u2019s home life and how it\u2019ll figure prominently in an hour airing Thursday, January 22 (9\/8c, NBC).<\/p>\n
\u201cIt starts out as a wonderful date night,\u201d Giddish, who plays Sgt. Amanda Rollins, tells me in the video above. \u201cAnd then it doesn\u2019t end great.\u201d<\/p>\n
Scanavino, who plays Assistant District Attorney Dominic \u201cSonny\u201d Carisi Jr., adds that the exchange in question is \u201ca very lovely, \u2018Rollisi\u2019 beginning. Then it goes\u2026 a direction that\u2019s very dramatic, shall we say?\u201d<\/p>\n
I can confirm that the scene they\u2019re referring to takes place in the hour that brings back Henry Mesner (played by Ethan Cutkosky), whom the \u201cSVU\u201d audience first met as a child psychopath in Season 14. Henry was released after a stint in juvenile detention, but his criminal activities in Season 22 \u2014 including stalking Rollins and shoving a pencil into Carisi\u2019s ear \u2014 let to his being institutionalized. The last time we saw Henry, Amanda was promising to kill him if he ever again came near her loved ones.<\/p>\n
During the upcoming episode, Giddish explains, will have a strong focus on the \u2018Rollisi\u2019 partnership. \u201cYou get to see their relationship. You get to see them sticking up for each other,\u201d she says. \u201cYou get to see how much they mean to each other.\u201d <\/p>\n
Longtime viewers know that Rollins and Carisi were New York Police Deparment partners before he became a lawyer with the city district attorney\u2019s office. After an incredibly slow burn romance, the two became a couple at the end of Season 22. They were married in Season 24, but Giddish exited the series in the same episode; Rollins\u2019 absence from the squad was explained by her choice to start teaching criminal-justice classes at Fordham University. Over the intervening years, Giddish guest-starred in several episodes before returning as a series regular for the current season.<\/p>\n
During the interview, Scanavino also describes his and Giddish\u2019s shared approach to the workplace side of Carisi and Rollins\u2019 relationship, including the \u201clittle touches, here and there, where we can show that there is this whole life outside.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
