Exclusive Video: Harry Connick Jr. Reveals Details About Law & Order: SVU Arc (omg!)

It's been a rough year for Det. Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay) on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. First, her team's squad room was showered with bullets by a distraught victim in the Season 12 finale. And then her longtime partner, Elliot Stabler (Christopher Meloni) unexpectedly left the force at the beginning of this season.

Luckily, things are looking up for Benson ? particularly when it comes to her love life. In Wednesday's episode, airing at 10/9c on NBC, Benson will see sparks when she is assigned to work with Executive Assistant District Attorney David Haden (guest star Harry Connick Jr. in his first of four episodes).

"What I do like about him is he seems to be a guy who's interested in the truth," Connick Jr. says of Haden. "He seems to be a good guy who's genuinely interested in upholding the law ... and a guy who's looking to do the right thing."
