Quotes
-
Detective Olivia Benson : [after Dr. Blair is murdered and the Stanton twins are considered suspects] Can we charge both of them?
Casey Novak : And what, have two separate trials? Dual theories of the crime give each of them grounds for dismissal.
Detective Olivia Benson : They came up with the perfect crime.
Casey Novak : Until you get one of them to flip.
Elliot Stabler : That's not gonna happen. They're way too close.
-
Detective Olivia Benson : [to Mr. and Mrs. Stanton about Lindsay] Well, we understand that you sent her to a sex therapist. Along with her brother.
Elliot Stabler : Is there something going on between them? Sexually?
Mrs. Stanton : Oh, my God. Of course not.
Elliot Stabler : If you know they're having sex and you've allowed it to continue under your roof, we can arrest both of you for endangering the welfare of your children.
Mr. Stanton : Okay, we're done here. Get out of my house.
[the detectives leave the Stanton house]
Detective Olivia Benson : That pushed some buttons.
Elliot Stabler : He's just pissed they ran out of excuses.
-
Elliot Stabler : That's why the Feds are here: mail fraud, ongoing criminal conspiracy. They'll be trying you under RICO.
Carmen : Never heard of him.
Detective Olivia Benson : Sweetheart, it's a law that'll keep you in jail till you're old and wrinkled.
Elliot Stabler : Unless you wanna tell me who can call the dogs off Katie.
Carmen : I ain't talking to no police! Let's go meet Rico whoever the hell he is.
-
Dr. Preston Blair : [about Lindsay] In order for the experiment to work, she has to look like a girl, be treated like a girl, and taught to act like a girl.
Elliot Stabler : Your experiment didn't work.
Dr. Preston Blair : I disagree.
Detective Olivia Benson : Lindsay's miserable.
Dr. Preston Blair : What 14-year-old girl isn't?
-
[the detectives are interrogating a sex therapist who used some controversial experimental procdeures on teenagers]
Elliot Stabler : Doc, I saw the 'art' in your office, and even I was uncomfortable with how many phalluses were on display.
Dr. Preston Blair : That's because you're a bourgeios American, completely uptight about sex. It's what screws up your children and turns them into sex offenders.
Elliot Stabler : ...You lost me at 'bourgeois.'
-
Dr. Melinda Warner : I'm still waiting for DNA results from saliva off the bite marks, but I did run a chromosomal analysis to narrow down a few genetic traits.
Elliot Stabler : Great. We'll print up flyers, hope somebody recognizes her genes.
-
Dr. Rebecca Hendrix : How many children have you had who caused the death of their attackers? You have to appreciate how much that compounds the trauma of the sexual assault.
Detective Olivia Benson : And you have to appreciate that this is an open homicide. He's gonna have to work with us.
Dr. Rebecca Hendrix : I don't have to tell you the staggering statistics on how few boys report their rapes.
Detective Olivia Benson : No, you don't.
Dr. Rebecca Hendrix : And there might be other factors. If Logan is homosexual, he may feel he somehow brought it on himself.
Elliot Stabler : He's coming to terms with his sexuality. He's conflicted. It's a theory.
-
Elliot Stabler : [about Lindsay] Why is she taking the blame for him?
Dr. Rebecca Hendrix : They're twins. They develop closer bonds than most siblings. There are documented cases where one twin, thousands of miles away, knew the exact moment when the other one died.
Detective Olivia Benson : What, Lindsay empathically sensed when Logan was attacked?
-
Detective Olivia Benson : What the hell are they saying?
Elliot Stabler : It's a made up language, my twins had one when they were little.
-
Odafin Tutuola : Luis comes up here to rape Katie. Instead, he finds another banger tagging his turf.
Elliot Stabler : And he teaches him a lesson by making him his bitch?
-
Elliot Stabler : [to Carmen and Tiny] Ladies, sorry for your loss.
Carmen : I didn't lose. I'm high scorer.
Elliot Stabler : I'm talking about your gang brother, Luis.
Tiny : We ain't no bangers.
Detective Olivia Benson : [looking at Tiny's nails] Sweetie, you have SCA stenciled across your nails.
Tiny : Gotta belong somewhere, yo.
Elliot Stabler : Right, with a bunch of guys who abuse you?
Carmen : Assassins take care of us.
Detective Olivia Benson : How? By using you as drug mules? Pimping you out? Beating you up?
Tiny : It's better than the crap I get at home.
