"Pride" is the 111th episode of the NBC crime drama Law & Order. It marked Chris Noth's departure from the series.
The murder of a gay city councilman leads to an investigation of corruption and homophobia in City Hall that strikes a chord with Logan — so much so that it may cost him his job.
The episode was inspired by the 1978 assassination of San Francisco city councilman Harvey Milk, the first openly gay politician to serve in California.
