Season 6, Episode 18, Pure,
An eighteen-year-old girl (Molly Bea Spears) is abducted by a rapist, causing her family (Marianne Hagan and Taylor Spreitler) to offer a substantial reward for her safe return. A self-proclaimed psychic (Martin Short) comes forward claiming to have information and the girl is found dead shortly thereafter. Stabler refuses to believe that the man in the squadroom is a real psychic.

I wonder how that girl's mother felt after learning the psychic that she let into her home was her daughter's killer.
I don’t think he killed her, I think his wife did
Technically speaking, both of them killed her.
Probably horrified and furious.
Beyond devastated. 2 insane people were responsible for her death (And apparently others according to her) and to be mentally tortured by the psychic's "readings" is even more devasting.
She probably felt like an idiot falling for his mumbo jumbo. And no doubt enraged over what they had done to her child.
Comedians always manage to play the most disturbing characters. Robin Williams could be absolutely terrifying.
Robin Williams was in SVU: th-cam.com/video/SdX2hFZnNg8/w-d-xo.html
Like Jim Carrey in The Cable Guy.
“One hour photo”
@Robin williams played a deranged killer in one of these episodes
@@addisoncaudillo9095 that's always what I think about first.
2:34
“I’m Sebastian Valentine”
“THEE Sebastian Valentine?!”
“You’ve heard of me? 😃”
“No. 🙃”
Stabler 😭💀
EMOTIONAL DAMAGE
Ikr lmao
Stabler should have remembered that muppet,at the time, he confessed. " Who are you?" "i´m sebastian Valentine"...... There goes your bee hive, you muppet.
It’s more complex when you realize he can read faces and almost certainly recognized the sarcasm and knew Stabler was lying… yet was composed enough to still played dumb .
@@batbabe1507no one uses that joke anymore
Martin Short was flat out BRILLIANT in this episode. Played the role of a phony 'psychic' who turned out to be a sick, sadistic, evil guy who preyed on young women, & then on top of that, his wife was his accomplice. And that deep, dark, creepy voice that Martin Short revealed in the episode....wow. What an episode this one was.
That is if Clifford was full on a psychopath. I can agree with you on what you said - props to Martin Short for that performance. It has been a long time I ever seen him.
You said it.
I deeply appreciate this show for allowing comedians the chance to show off their dramatic acting chops and give them the opportunity to play completely against type.
"You're a Prostitute" That line delivery always makes me laugh.
“They thought nothing of getting into a van with a nice married couple” is such a creepy line to me.
can we take a minute to appreciate Sister Pegg though. she is such a sweet soul. note how as soon as she comes back to consciousness she expresses worry about the baby when she herself was in distress.
I appreciate her.
Sister Peg was a great reoccurring character. She was strong AF, both in character and kindness. ❤
Both husband and wife were psychotic. Jeez.
A regular Chucky and Tiffany.
@@TylerHines-dy8ygyou are right
@@monkeycat48 More like Harley Quinn and Mr. J
@@DrVVVinK more like paul and karla.
That smile he gives Stabler sent chills down my spine, Martin Short was so good at portraying a psychopathic killer
This guy needed an award for that performance saw this episode the other day
Me tooo but I hate it when they have open endings
"This guy?" Are you not familar with Martin Short? He's a big name actor. That's like not knowing Steve Martin!
Oh, but perhaps you're young. They both started on SNL.
Well, if you want to see him doing comedy, "Innerspace" is a really funny movie! You won't believe it's the same guy! And you can see him AND Steve Martin in "Father of The Bride 1 & 2.”
The guy is Martin Short! How on the world do you not know him?!
@@AnnaJo2000 Too young, probably. But it's groovy they appreciate his talent!
I’m with you bro.
Martin Short, widely regarded as one of the kindest and nicest people you'd ever meet, playing a psycho is one of the most against type castings I've ever seen.
And I love it,range👍Marty gets cray cray
The key to good comedy is commitment, translates even better to drama. All comedians can do drama but not all dramatic actors can do comedy
"You're a madam."
"No, I'm a nun. What are you?"
"I'm a psychic."
"But you thought I was a madam. You're not a very good psychic, are you?"
Loved it when Sister Peg was on the show. Sad that she got killed off in the Season 12 finale.
"I know what you're thinking"
"Of course you do you're psychic"
"You think I'm mentally ill"
"You're good"
Stabler has no chill 🤣🤣🤣
I don't know how but comedians can play the scariest villains ever.
Like Tim Curry in the original TV production of It. Made a great Pennywise.

That’s why we’re scared of clowns
Because subconsciously, you’re expecting the opposite from them based on prior associations. It’s a nice tactic; cast someone unserious in a very serious role and watch people’s skin crawl because it’s upsetting their internal perception that someone funny and familiar could never be a monster. It makes you so uncomfortable because subconsciously it’s raising a useful red flag.
Martin Short was amazing in this episode. Truly nailed the deranged psychotic nature of his character. His Cheshire grin is truly haunting.
His wife is a mental case, she literally ruined herself for a guy who considered her nothing but a minor detail for his plan and a patsy.
So wasteful.
A terrible case of Harley Quinn Syndrome.
She is a lot like Harley Quinn. You read my mind.
Not to mention they killed a mother so she could have a baby.
well she lied to him, and too late they were already married.
he didn't think to get it annulled.
or maybe he found out really really later on, like years later.
"THEE Sebastian Balentine???!"
"so, you've heard of me?"
"no."
😂😂😂
LMAOOO
He is such a crackup!
Man, imagine having Martin Short on set. It must have been a lot of fun on set.
Right? Lmfao this is all I was thinking about while watching this. I don’t even know what that Sebastian dude real name is but I love his acting 😂
elliot closing the sketchbook😂😂😂😂
Wow, these people are absolutely twisted.
Remember it is a TV show he is playing a character.
@@JasonshootsI think that’s what they were implying
This was such an intense episode. I miss old SVU
2:47 😂😂 Stabler is always making fun of the creeps
He really pulled this role off flawlessly...Amazing
"the sebastian valentine?" "oh youve heard of me" "no"
7:25 - I love Fin's reaction to Stabler busting through the door
😂😂😂
My daughter & I watched this episode when she was a teenager - years later, she still has nightmares about Martin Short!
I never thought I would see the day Martin Short would make me creeped out!
Lots of love for Martin Short! ❤
Inner space was pretty creepy.
Fin sent me when stabler kicked in the door and he said”dayum”
Martin Short was great but also kudos to the woman who played his wife, she gave a great villain's performance as well !!!
Stabler hating psychics is 1000% makes sense I hate them too There all scammers and psychos my grandma got scammed by one 1000 bucks for a reading
Cops tend to hate them because they waste the police department's time with their nonsense.
So your grandmas gave $1000 for a reading ? Ain’t no way she deserved that and even old age isn’t an excuse for that 😂 you better mean it was multiple readings and even so she choose to keep going 🤷🏾♀️
Imagine how Stabler will react to Shawn Spencer (and his partner, Hasta la Vista).
I enjoy watching Law and Order my favorite part is when the criminal get caught
7:25 love how the lady just listens
This is why u teach your kids the dangers of bring online. This is why my husband and I refuse to let our kids be online unless we are right there seeing what they are doing.
The library, school, friends with devices- they will get online, its too accessible these days. Best thing to do is warn them and show them news reports on the dangers. Heck, kids these days can get past parental blocks faster than parents can install them.
Unfortunately, there’s only so much standing over your child you can do. Theyre going to be away from you at some point, or maybe try and sneak being on the internet bc they feel suffocated. Best bet is to warn them about stuff like this, and check in every once in a while about what they’re doing online…
Sorry but that’s stupid parenting all your doing is creating sneaky kids not sure who told y’all that method was smart when it’s not they are definitely doing it behind your back
@@Haru_Misu kids have their own ever changing code they can speak with. And you’ll go insane trying to figure it out
Don’t excuse y’all’s negligence with “everybody does it”
Raise ur own child, not put them on others
Martin Short could've played a detective on this show.
I really wish I could stream the earlier episodes of the OG Law and Order! Love the clips. Glad for SVU haha
This show is on Hulu right now!
Every episode of every season is on peacock for $8.99 a month..svu,organized crime and the original l&o
Betty Smith,
No, it is not on Netflix.
You know after seeing this episode I'm more convinced that Martin short could have convincingly played a good live action mad hatter in a Batman movie.
Martin Short was brilliant! Give him an award already duhhhh 😂😂😂😂😂 wow!
You’ve heard of me?
..no! 😂
Bravo for Martin's performance bc its so creepy just hid under a normal persona
Comedians always play the best villains. This is because, in order to see the funny side of things, you must first confront the darkness (grief and pain).
I remember this so well. I had no idea Martin Short could be so creeptastic! He makes my skin crawl in this episode.
Oliver Putnam (Martin Short's character on Only Murders In The Building) would be utterly disgusted at Sebastian and his wife, IMO...
On a side note, who knew Martin Short could be so scary?!?
Everybody's crazy in this episode
And he's from my hometown...
Oh, boy...
And now he plays Oliver in only murders in the building 😂
I love seeing non dramatic actors on SVU. Its really cool to see them playing non comedic roles.
“THEE Sebastian Valentine??” “You’ve heard of me?(:” “no(:” “):”
The most disturbing part of this video, more than the incredible performance by Martin Short or the sick reasoning of the woman that plays his wife, is the mispronounciation of the word "nuclear." It took me a second to realize what she said.
Canadians don't say "up in Canada."
Robin Williams played a better crazy person... but Martin Short played a great sociopath
This almost ruined Martin Short for me. He's a great actor.
Looks Like He’s A Duo Of Steve Martin Have You Watched Only Murders In The Building?
I loved this episode
As for SVU, they have season 1, 5 and every season passed that on iTunes so far. The only missing seasons are 2, 3 and 4. Perfect. Hopefully soon they’ll release those ones.
I wonder how old is Martin Short in that episode??????😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
He was born in 1950 and this episode came out in 2005, so he was 55.
Marten Short,
one hell of a villien in this
Good God! I never thought such an over the top comedian actor like Martin Short, could be terrifying.
I thought this was just Martin Short being Martin Short
Pretty convincing, isn't he?
Im a say im going mental!😅😂
Shawn Spencer would be ashamed of this phony psychic.
Back in ya house lady there’s nothing to see😂😂
The mother is stupid. She should’ve first of all called the police when as soon as she heard that voicemail then the police can track the voicemail and so they can get to the man why would you just sit there and talk to your daughter? You should’ve literally just called The police first.
"I know what you're thinking"
"Of course you do, you're a psychic. 🙄"
"No, that I'm mentally ill."
"Wow. He's good."
What is this based off of? I feel like I’ve heard the story somewhere.
Very unsettling seeing sweet, beloved Martin Short playing this role 😂😂😂
Things are getting worse in this kinda of cases
So this is what Clifford got up to when he grew up
I absolutely love Clifford!!!
I was going to mention that the thumbnail looks like Clifford who did an evil thing
@@jdfox8889 he used to torment his Uncle Martin with tape recordings 😂😂😂😂 and he had the hots for his uncle's fiancee
It was textbook, why didn't they suspect him sooner????
Geez
"Palaver" means a needlessly complicated procedure.
The punch😂 3:48
Sebastian Ballentine did a great job posing as a psychic.
This is one of those weird random episodes they do, when they don't have any "ripped from the headline" episodes they can create.
Look up Paul Bernardo...
A girl did try and sell her virginity online to pay for college.
Great episode, but I wish they had put Martin Shorts voice through some kind of filter when he did the initial phone call. His voice is far too recognizeable and gave away the twist.
Seeing martin short as this character is awfully shocking
She made me crazier than usual..-Heath Ledgers Joker..
hmm doesn't really seem to fit the wife's profile to show up at the precinct though? she was terrified of him going back to prison, she must know he's playing with fire by being there, yet she shows up and provides the answer for how he was responsible without having left...
Sad thing is thats really happened
It is horrific that such evil exist in real life
@@martakavaliauskaite4566 completely agree
The real crime here was her pronunciation of “nuclear” family. 😅
her true motive, driven mad by the inability to pronounce such an important word.
He has a vision 😮😮😮about the girl that kidnapped
Now spend a few enjoyable minutes picture these same scenes, only Short is in his Glick persona. I can see him jumping up onto the interrogation table, legs tucked under.
A filter and an audio scrubber...lol Also a detective being that aggressive would be tossed out on his ear. You can't grab people and yell at them for a confession. That would be inadmissible.
I felt satisfied seeing Ballentine in a jail cell after what he did to Haley.
Kaley
Another one that got deep fast
Spoilers please?
The psychic and his wife killed and tortured a lot of young women but he got away with a lot of murders so he became confident and came in police station pretending to bee psychic but he cnow a lot of details and stabler started to suspect him
A psychotic married couple?! You’ve totally gotta be kidding!
Talk about train wreck marrying train wreck.
Nice video
His voice still freaks me out 😅
It’s terrible to imagine how Mrs. Sellers reacted to Kaley’s death. I think she was crying like crazy. Anybody else’s opinions post in comments below.
Henry and Carlene are also a regular Bonnie and Clyde.
Elliot is a good guy but a loose cannon
The real crime here is saying: ‘nucular.’
In comments it is said that such horrific crime happened in real life
"Nucular" for nuclear
"Jewlaree" for jewelry
"Real-ah-ter" for realtor
does the man age? i watched him as a child.
Another week without a new episode while they advertise "New episodes weekly" on Peacock.
I was glad they returned the baby to his real father.
Me too.
This was Martin Short
thevoice of the kid in the purple dress annoyed me a lot more than it should have
That reminds me of rex Huerman
He called the girls family sicko
I think the wife is played by Helen Shaver maybe
It's actually Mary Mara
Helen Shaver has directed nine episodes of SVU.
The actress who played the wife is Mary Mara who died by drowning in 2022 at the age of 61 years old she was born in 1960.
bad amigo.
