When Corey Cott‘s Detective Jake Griffin first joined the squad in Law & Order: SVU Season 27, no one really thought he belonged there. He was, after all, placed by Chief Kathryn Tynan (Noma Dumezweni), who has her own agenda and seems to have it out for Captain Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay). But in recent episodes, especially the one that aired on March 5, we’re seeing a change in him.
In “Frequency,” the squad races against the clock to find a young boy who is being held in a dog cage somewhere, as seen when a family’s baby monitor somehow picks up the transmission. Griffin becomes determined to find him and figures out a way to communicate with him, based on something he used to do with his brother. TV Insider spoke with Corey Cott about opening up to Benson, what this case means for his thoughts about being in the middle between the captain and Tynan, and more. Warning: Spoilers for Law & Order: SVU Season 27 Episode 14 ahead!
