I watched the new episode last week where Olivia found out she had a brother. Does anyone have any idea who the brother is? Somehow, I think it will be Elliot. Anybody else think this? Or do you think it's someone else? And if so, who?

Elliot isn't her brother.
The actor who plays her brother will look very familiar to Six Feet Under fans.
Michael Weston, who terrorized Michael C. Hall's character in HBO's "Six Feet Under", will do two episodes as Benson's brother, Simon Marsden.
"After eight seasons of searching, we thought it was time for Olivia to have someone to hold onto," says SVU executive producer Neal Baer. "She's been looking all her life for answers to the fact" of her birth.
"She's always wanted to know if there's anybody out there she's related to, as painful as that information might be. She comes to understand her past. ... When she finds her father, she finally has closure."
Benson's sibling surfaces during a DNA "kinship analysis" performed in a rape case she's investigating outside her jurisdiction. She gets a hard time from Kim Delaney ("NYPD Blue"), playing a local precinct captain.
Benson tracks down Marsden in prison. "It's an issue of ‘Like father, like son,'" Baer says.

Hmmm now isn't that interesting? I am an SVU fanatic and I really think Elliot is a major nut job!
Its very intriguing to me that when the show first started, Olivia was the one that seemed like a loose cannon and now Elliot does most of the time.
I thought for sure that he was going to go down for shooting that guy a couple of weeks ago, but they called it *justifiable*
Logically, Capt. Cragen and Munch(ie) are eliminated, because they are probably close to her mothers age (before she died)
Fin....well......and the same for Dr. Huang.....
So, that leaves Elliot...or the other new guy that they brought in at the beginning of the month, I can't remember his name but he worked with Fin on a couple of episodes.....
I don't know who it is, but to have it be Elliot........that'd be wild! We'll just have to wait and see!!!!

If you think about how she found out she had a brother, it seems impossible for her brother to be Elliott. The kinship analysis they did in the episode was for people whose DNA is in the system because they have spent time in prison. This would not apply to Elliott.
Also, it seems like it would be pretty terrible for her to find out that her partner's dad raped her mom.
Another poster also said who the brother will be; I skipped the post because I hate spoilers. I just wanted to point out why it's impossible for it to be Elliott, since he's not a criminal.

not a chance in hell its Elliot - that would be a pathetic piece of writing. I think they are keeping a very tight lip on who might play the brother - but its not going to be someone you know in the show, it will be someone new.
