A young African-American woman is found dead in alley with her skirt hiked up, and is believed to be a prostitute. While the woman remains unidentified, SVU discovers that there have been cases similar to theirs and try to find leads on other victims. Later, the M.E. informs that the rape and drug tests were negative, and that the hooker oddly had great teeth.

Meanwhile, Munch testifies against a doctor who videotaped his sexual assault on his patients during his treatment for hysteria. The treatment in question is making the patient orgasm to relieve them of their symptoms.

Back at SVU, there is a possible match to their Jane Doe: 19 year-old Tracy Henderson, who had been missing for two days. Benson and Stabler go to question the Henderson's, who also I.D. the body via a picture. When Stabler tells the parents that Tracy's attacker was targeting prostitutes, they both become angry.

Benson and Stabler meet Dennis Caulfield, Tracy's boyfriend, who gives the detectives an alibi, and points them in the direction of Tracy's volunteer center at a literacy club. One person did not show up that day, a Travis Hall, who is a parolee from Rikers. Benson and Stabler find Hall dead from an overdose in his apartment.

Their possible living victim, Lorinda Gutierrez, is tracked down. After she is questioned and describes her attack, Stabler and Benson reenact the attack in front of the squad. Munch points out that the flashlight beam from Gutierrez's attack is from a cop, and Benson and Stabler canvas the streets and question the prostitutes. Vice officer Sal D'Angelo comes up from the questioning, and he was coincidentally the first officer at the scene of Tracy's murder, and knew the other victims.

Cragen meets up with Lennie Briscoe, who worked with D'Angelo in the '70s. Briscoe informs him that D'Angelo had a temper at a golf tournament, but points the direction of D'Angelo's partner, Ridley. Ridley's I.A.D. file is full of assaults, a few of them against prostitutes. Ridley's neighbors tell Benson and Stabler that Ridley's mother was a prostitute, and if she had a customer in the house, she would leave saltines on the doorstep as his dinner and make him sit there all night.

Stabler goes home to kick soccer balls at his daughter Kathleen, practicing as a goalie. He tries to use soccer as metaphor for giving her the sex talk, but she becomes angry at him, stating that she is a virgin. The next morning, Stabler arrives at SVU to find that Benson spent all night cross-referencing attacks on prostitutes to precincts where Ridley worked over the last 30 years. When he is arrested, Ridley confesses to them all, showing no remorse, yet informing the detectives that he did not murder Tracy Henderson.

The squad concludes that Tracy does not fit Ridley's pattern, and divert their attention back to Dennis Caulfield. Benson and Stabler question Caulfield's alibi, Bill, who tells them that Caulfield is not Tracy's boyfriend, and he is engaged to another girl. Caulfield had seen Tracy at a club one night, looking for jungle fever, but Tracy is extremely inexperienced and had never even had a glass of wine, let alone sex. The morning after, Tracy wakes up, madly in love with Caulfield, and calls him up to go dancing with him, saying that she'd wear something hot for once. Bill says that Caulfield came home alone after standing her up, and asked Bill to lie for him.

The shoeprint found at Tracy's crime scene is examined, discovering that it is from an exotic Italian shoe brand. The squad searches through Caulfield's shoe collection, but are unable to find them. Benson and Stabler visit Caulfield's parents, and question them, running into Dennis. The detectives interrogate Dennis, and Benson suddenly realizes that Dennis is wearing the shoes they're looking for.
