In case you tuned into Law & Order: Special Victims Unit on Thursday, you missed one thing — except you watched it on two totally different platforms.

Season 27, episode 2 of the crime procedural featured distinct endings on NBC and on Peacock, and neither platform featured the footage that was broadcast on the opposite within the present's closing moments.

Each endings see Detective Jake Griffin (Corey Cott) speaking with Captain Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay) in her workplace, the place he vows, "I might by no means go behind your again."

The endings then diverge, because the Peacock model of the episode exhibits Griffin knocking on the window of a black SUV.

"Hey, John," he tells the driving force.

"Hey, child," the driving force responds.

"It's good to see you," Griffin shoots again.

"Chief Tynan's inside ready for you," John tells him.

Griffin thanks the driving force, then heads up the steps to satisfy with Chief Kathryn Tynan (Noma Dumezweni), who we don't truly see within the scene. However the essential takeaway is that Griffin is going behind Benson's again instantly after saying that he wouldn't.

NBC's model of the ending sees Detective Terry Bruno (Kevin Kane) enter the workplace and declare "Captain, I simply bought an pressing message from Sgt. Bell: Detective Stabler's within the hospital."

NBC's ending doesn't function that final scene with Griffin going behind Benson's again, and Peacock's ending doesn't embody Bruno in any respect.

Why the discrepancy?

Leisure Weekly has reached out to representatives for NBC for clarification.

TVLine beforehand reported that NBC aired its Stabler-forward ending to straight join the episode to season 5, episode 2 of Law & Order: Organized Crime, which aired within the time slot instantly after SVU. (Organized Crime's fifth season was initially launched on Peacock this previous spring, however the episodes are re-airing on NBC this fall).

Hargitay visitor starred on season 5, episode 2 of Organized Crime, the place Benson visited Elliot Stabler (Christopher Meloni) within the hospital.

So NBC viewers who watched each SVU and Organized Crime on Thursday witnessed Benson study that Stabler was hospitalized on the finish of 1 present, then examine in with him originally of the following present.

NBC's ending neatly slots SVU into the Organized Crime timeline, suggesting that SVU season 27 takes place concurrently with Organized Crime season 5, even if L&O followers have already seen the conclusion of OC season 5 on Peacock.

Regulation & Order: Particular Victims Unit airs new episodes on Thursdays at 9 p.m. ET/PT.
