Detectives Stabler and Benson investigate the death of a young girl, whose body was found in an abandoned building. The victim is identified as Maggie Peterson, a six-year-old child who had been reported missing by her parents the previous day. The detectives soon learn that Maggie was a frequent visitor at a local doll shop called The Dollhouse, run by a woman named Jackie.

As they delve deeper into the case, Stabler and Benson discover that Maggie's death may be connected to a series of similar murders in the area. They eventually connect the dots and realize that the murders are being committed by a man who preys on young girls and uses dolls to lure them in.

The detectives eventually discover that the real killer is someone much closer to home. In a shocking twist, they learn that one of their own colleagues is responsible for the murders, and has been using his daughter's dolls as a cover for his crimes. In the end, justice is served and the killer is brought to justice, but not before the team is left reeling from the shocking revelation.
