As the team investigates, they discover that the young girl had been participating in a sleepover with her friends, and had snuck out of the house to attend a party with her crush - an older boy who had been grooming her online for weeks.

The team soon learns that the girl is not the only one who has been targeted by this predator, who is using a popular gaming app to connect with vulnerable young girls and lure them into dangerous situations. Their investigation leads them to a group of young men who have been working together to lure and sexually assault teenage girls.

As the SVU team races to track down the suspect before he can harm his latest victim, they are haunted by the question of what drives these men to commit such heinous crimes.

It is a timely reminder of the importance of protecting our children from harm and working together as a society to hold abusers accountable for their actions.
