Detectives Olivia Benson and Elliot Stabler search for a baby who was ripped out of her pregnant mother's body. The detectives learn Nichol Manning was having an affair and suspect the man who may be the actual father. But the alibi of Nichol's husband isn't adding up. Dr. George Huang says Richard Manning (played by John Ritter) is an arrogant neat freak who didn't want another man's baby ruining his life. Though the infant is later found dead, ADA Alexandra Cabot says they have to prove the child took one breath to make a murder charge stick. During a devastating cross-examination, Manning gives them the proof they need: he says the baby cried before he killed it.
