LAW & ORDER: ORGANIZED CRIME Post-Mortem: Ainsley Seiger on the Fallout From Jet’s Undercover Assignment
February 16, 2023 by Marisa Roffman
[Warning: This post contains spoilers for the Thursday, February 16 episode of LAW & ORDER: ORGANIZED CRIME, “All In The Game.”]
LAW & ORDER: ORGANIZED CRIME’s Jet (Ainsley Seiger) managed to survive her kidnapping—but it was quite the ordeal.
After Seamus (Michael Malarkey) took the detective to the woods, he showed her the grave he had used as a way to get out of the hit he was hired to do. (Of course, the guy whose life Seamus saved ended up blowing their cover by coming to the club anyway.) Jet was able to get away, but when Seamus suggested he might end his own life, she showed herself.
Thankfully, OCCB showed up just in time to give her backup. When he was cornered, Seamus refused to put the gun down, and the team shot him.
At the hospital, Jet was checked out, as Ayanna (Danielle Moné Truitt) and Elliot (Christopher Meloni) watched over her, warning her the fallout from this traumatic experience might be yet to come.
“It’s not going to hit you all at once,” Elliot warned Jet.
“There are people in the department that you can talk to,” Ayanna added. “Help you work through what happened.”
“And I’ve been there,” Elliot said. “Do it.”
Jet thanked them. “I tried my best,” she acknowledged. “And I really wanted Seamus to…I hope we can get Murphy for you, Sarge.”
Jet and Seamus eventually reunited, and she brought him a Georgia O’Keeffe book from his place. The duo said goodbye, but Seamus stopped her before she could leave.
“Hey,” he said. “I don’t want you feeling bad about this, okay? You didn’t do anything wrong. I did.”
“Take care of yourself, Seamus,” Jet said.
Unfortunately, the quasi-peace didn’t last: Seamus was killed while in custody by Eamon Murphy’s (Timothy V. Murphy) henchmen.
“So that’s it? It all just goes away?” Jet asked.
“We did our job,” Ayanna said. Bell pointed out, at the very least, she had a bit of closure: She knew for sure Murphy had killed her partner.
In the future, Seiger hopes the show continues to play with the fallout from Jet’s complex first real undercover assignment.
“In my wildest dreams, this does not get thrown away, everything that she’s been through,” Seiger tells Give Me My Remote. “And I would love to see how she deals with it, whether it’s from a counseling perspective or even from getting asked to go undercover once again and struggling a little bit. I think that there’s so much more value in allowing her to deal with this in a human way than in a very AVENGERS-style cop way. Like just shaking it off and being like, ‘Well, getting kidnapped! It’s just a Tuesday for me!'”
“I would love to see her wrestling with that and having to ask for help,” she continues. “I think that would be a really beautiful arc and a really beautiful moment of growth for her, as someone who has statistically not been the greatest at asking for help or even dealing with her emotions. That’s what I would love.”
