Melissa McCarthy is showing her support for pal Mariska Hargitay.

After the “Law & Order: SVU” actress, 57, revealed she broke her ankle, McCarthy, 50, hit the streets of Los Angeles with a homemade sign reading, “Honk if you’re PRAYING for Mariska Hargitay’s recovery.”

Sharing a video of herself holding the sign, McCarthy wrote, “If you can’t produce quality care for your friend after ankle surgery, the next best this is obviously standing outside Wienerschnitzel with a sign @therealmariskahargitay ❤️?.”

And from the sounds of the video, Hargitay is getting a lot of prayers in L.A.

Hargitay revealed she broke her ankle in an Instagram post earlier this month, showing her right ankle wrapped in bandages.

“My summer look,” she jokingly wrote, adding the hashtags “#SpecialAnkleUnit,” “#CrackingTheCase” and “#TheseLittlePiggiesWentToTheER,” among others.

According to Page Six, Hargitay injured her ankle after she tripped on wet pavement while leaving a Cinema Society screening of “Black Widow” in the Hamptons.

Hargitay later reposted the video, writing in the caption: “Above and beyond. Honk if you’re blown away by @melissamccarthy’s heart and humour. Might be worth breaking my ankle for. #PrayingSheGotMeATakeOutSchnitzel. #WomenSupportingWomen.”

She also commented on McCarthy’s clip: “I LOVE YOU! CAN YOU HEAR ME??”
