In order for a series like Law & Order: Organized Crime to keep moving forward, we have to suspend more than a healthy amount of disbelief with its portrayal of organized crime, Elliot Stabler’s repeated return to undercover work, and the criminals who are absolute morons despite the fact that they’re supposedly exceptionally good at what they do.
Any other crime-related storyline outside of the Law & Order universe illustrates how crime syndicates, even rival ones (the cartels in the Breaking Bad universe, for example), talk shop to make sure they’re not overstepping boundaries or acting against their established moral codes. Elliot Stabler going back to his usual tricks in season 3, season 4, and eventually season 5, should at the very least raise a few eyebrows when the same jacked, six-foot-tall, bald-headed detective is ready to infiltrate another crime ring and bring them to justice.
How does the Law & Order Universe address this problematic premise, you ask? Elliot Stabler shaves his goatee.
