Melissa McCarthy guest starred in the Thursday episode of 'Law & Order: Special Victims Unit,' which aired on April 23, 2026. She played the character Jasmyn Jewell, a pro fighter who shows attraction to Olivia Benson in the episode.
Olivia Benson, the NYPD captain portrayed by Mariska Hargitay, approaches Jasmyn Jewell at a booth during a pro fighter expo. The episode's murder victim had attended the same expo on the day he died.
This setting forms the backdrop for their interaction. She then adds, 'I’m always happy to support the babes in blue,' after seeing Benson’s face. These lines highlight the character's immediate shift in demeanor.
When asked if she has seen the victim, Jasmyn Jewell responds to Olivia Benson: 'You know what I have seen? I’ve seen that you got a spectacular set of baby browns. And those yams aren’t bad either. Big, big money with sticks like that in this line of work.
I think crowds really go for Amazonian broads. ' The dialogue underscores Jewell's flirtatious attraction. Variety reported the exchange, noting Jewell's grin in the scene.
