It’s a “First Time for Everything” in ‘Law & Order: SVU’ Season 26, Episode 18 Promo

Saying the words "a first time for everything" is quite the statement in a show that's been on for more than a quarter of a century. The next episode of Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, "The Accuser" will have one of its longest-tenured characters saying just that. In a promo released for the April 10 episode, a man is found with a date carved into his back and, as the promo unfolds, the squad quickly realizes that this is a very very personal act of violence. Sgt. Odafin "Fin" Tutola (Ice-T) mutters that something to do with this case is a "first time" for what they're seeing as police officers in the Special Victims Unit.
