Corrected entry: The doctor speaks with Olivia about how the girl is older because she doesn't have wisdom teeth and people get them when they are adults. This is what turns the investigation. Although, that is sometimes true, it is not ALWAYS true. My wisdom teeth were removed when I was 16, and I know of friends who have also had them removed before adulthood. So to base it primarily on that would not have been sound.

Starring: Christopher Meloni, Richard Belzer, Mariska Hargitay, Dann Florek
Continuity mistake: When Stabler steps out to confront Tarzi, there is a long, brown brick wall to Tarzi's right. Tarzi then turns and runs across the street and is followed by Fin. Munch steps out and yells "halt!" There is another shot of Tarzi and he stops again. Right before he is tackled by Fin, behind him, to his right, is the same brick wall as before even though he crossed the street and ran down the block.
Dr. Huang: I'm conflicted about labeling a ten year old a psychopath. But...
Don Cragen: "But"?
Dr. Huang: I've had a chill like that two times in my life. With death row serial killers.
More trivia for Law & Order: Special Victims Unit
Question: Why does Oliver Gates come up with ridiculous reasons for the people he defends whenever they commit murder? In the episode "Hate", Sean Webster was killing Muslims and Oliver claims that his hatred was genetic but, it was found out that Sean had been raised to hate Muslims after his dad left his mom and married a muslim. In the episode "Game" a guy is murdering people the exact same way that's done in a video game when it's clear the suspect is using the video game as a scapegoat for his crimes.
Answer: His clients are guilty and won't take a plea. He's using desperate defenses in hopes of swaying a juror or two. Also makes for better television. "Temporary insanity" isn't nearly as compelling as "the video games made me do it."

Correction: Yes, but since it is sometimes true, that led their investigation in another direction, and they found out she was not who she said she was. Also the doctor said she had them removed some time ago because of the way the scars had healed, so even if they where removed when she was really young, this would still prove she was older than she said she was.
