PEOPLE has an exclusive sneak peek of the Thursday, May 22 episode ofLaw & Order: Organized Crime In the clip, Elliot Stabler (Christopher Meloni) appears to have developed a tremor in his right hand Season 5 ofOCairs exclusively on Peacock These days, Elliot Stabler is... a littleunstable. In PEOPLE's exclusive sneak peek of the May 22 episode ofLaw & Order: Organized Crime, Stabler (Christopher Meloni) carries out his morning routine while fighting what seems to be a newly developed tremor in his right hand and arm. After waking up in bed and trying to calm one shaking hand with the other, Stabler moves to his kitchen, where he listens to voicemails while making coffee. One message is from his sergeant, Ayanna Bell, who is calling from Italy. Virginia Sherwood/PEACOCK "With Reyes and I both out, please, for God's sake, take some time. And kiss that grandbaby for me!" Bell says over the machine, referring to the newest member of the Stabler family — Eli's newborn son. The next message that plays while Stabler cleans up the kitchen is from his brother, Randall, reminding him not to skip his weekly therapy appointment. As the message ends and Stabler moves to pour himself a cup of coffee, his hand shakes so violently that he smashes the coffee pot out of frustration. The physical ailment is a new one for Stabler, who's survived numerous shootings throughout his years on the job and, most recently, a traumatic car accident at the start of this fifth season. Virginia Sherwood/PEACOCK Whether the tremors are a result of an injury he sustained in the car wreck, a physical manifestation of the stress he's under or something else remains to be seen.
