That situation has not happened in any episode. In several episodes they've played a 'couple' for the purposes of investigation. So far, they are coworkers that care a lot about each other but it has not turned into romance. If, perchance, a romance is written into an episode, you can be sure that they are getting desperate for ratings.
Elliott Stabler loves his wife and family; he has a great deal of affection for his partner Olivia Benson based on their long term professional relationship and his respect for her integrity and ability as an officer.
That is the fictional story line. Elliot is no longer a part of the SVU team. Had the ratings for the show dropped too low, it wouldn't surprise me at all if they changed the relationship into a romantic one to boost their ratings. That could still happen if a contract can be agreed to by Christopher Meloni and the production company, and the ratings need rescuing. Such is the reality of romances in the TV world.
Elliot does not express or behave in a manner that would indicate that he has the 'hots' for Olivia. He has expressed his respect for her and her abilities.
Olivia Benson.
The Captain is Don Cragen who is played by Dann Florek.
Of the episodes that I remember:Fault, Olivia gets her neck slit, she is bleeding pretty badly.Undercover, Olivia gets thrown around and is seconds away from getting raped.Infiltrated, Olivia gets bashed in the head by a policemen while undercover.Paternity, Olivia gets in a car accident with Kathy Stabler.
Detectives Benson and Stabler were partners for twelve seasons of Law and Order SVU. Season 12 ended with a girl with a gun shooting people in the squad room, so Detective Stabler shot and killed her. But during the hiatus between season 12 and 13, Christopher Meloni, the actor who plays Elliott Stabler, could not negotiate a new contract for season 13 of SVU. The script handled the situation by saying that Stabler had quit over the shooting incident. Elliott didn't appear, his resignation was discussed by the other characters so we would know why he wasn't there. That's a good sign because they didn't kill him off. It's possible that, if he can negotiate a contract for guest appearances we may see him on the show again.
No, Detectives Benson and Stabler are coworkers. Like most of the rest of working Americans, in real life, coworkers seldom have interest in relationships with someone they work closely with. It does occasionally happen, but in the case of Benson and Stabler, it would only happen if the show's rating were in trouble.
