Is Law And Order: SVU Already Gearing Up For The Season Finale With Hint About Benson’s Future?

Spoilers ahead for Episode 18 of Law & Order: SVUcalled “Bubble Wrap.”

Law & Order: SVU brought in Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and Doctor Who alum Michelle Gomez for the latest episode to play a murderously overbearing mother with a seriously twisted relationship with her son, and her character’s dynamic with Benson included an exchange that delivered what may have been a hint about the Special Victims captain’s future. With the finale presumably approaching soon, I have to wonder if it was a hint that would lead to something in the not-too-distant future.
