A cryptic phone call to Captain Benson ignites a complex and potentially deadly investigation in this week’s “Law & Order.” “Play With Fire Part 1.” The details for the episode are scarce, but the hook is undeniably there. What kind of fire is being played with? And who will get burned?

With the Special Victims Unit involved, the case likely involves a particularly sensitive crime. The very title, “Play with Fire”, hints at danger and recklessness. The “Law & Order” franchise, a mainstay of television for decades, consistently delivers suspenseful narratives ripped from the headlines, and this episode looks to be no exception.
