Meanwhile, Benson still has to deal with the sudden appearance of Noah's (Jack Nawada-Braunwart) grandmother. Last episode, Sheila Porter (Brooke Shields) turned up on the lieutenant's doorstep, claiming that she was related to the boy. It can be remembered that before Noah's biological mother died, she insisted that both her parents were dead. It turned out that she was lying. In a recent interview with Shields, she shared her thoughts about playing Sheila's role in the NBC series.
"But I think what fans will understand is that both of these [women] actually have a valid argument, and what does that mean? [Is it] about winning? Is it about finding the healthiest compromise? I'm not there to replace [Olivia]. I'm not there to undermine or stamp her out, so I'm not an adversary in that way," the actress said.
"Law & Order: Special Victims Unit" season 19 airs Wednesdays, at 9 p.m. EDT on NBC.
