Fin quotes from Law & Order: Special Victims Unit

Fin

How are we gonna let this guy hit on Rollins?

Benson

We're gonna wait for probable cause.

Or "machine elves"?

Fin

[about Frank] He likes Rollins. I don't think he'll hurt her.

Benson

Men kill women they like all the time, Fin. You know that.

Fin

[about Getz's death] I don't see this guy committing suicide.

I don't even think that's him on the gurney. No, hear me out. They switch him out with some homeless guy from the morgue and meanwhile he gets on a plane to some island beyond extradition.

Fin

No. I think someone took him out. No way did he kill himself.

Getz has gotten away with everything his whole life. Why quit now?

Benson

A lot of people wanted him dead. Either way, his number was up. But what gets me is that all those girls will never get their day in court.

Look, I know you SVU guys have big hearts, but this wasn't a real rape.

Benson

"A real rape"? Is that because they knew each other, or is that because she dances in a strip club? [Donnie is silent] Do me a favor. Have your captain call me.

Benson

When are these dinosaurs gonna die out?

Fin

No time soon - they have no natural predators.

Miss Scott, the rape allegation against your former husband is credible.

I'm sure it is. Guys like Markeevious just get lazier. The candy jar's gotta be right at their fingertips.

Sounds like there were other accusations against Markeevious.

Some girls said that he forced them, that he was "rough". That's what he got paid for - being rough, and fast, and big. [to her assistant] Give me just a second.

Fin

These girls have names?

Probably, but I'm not giving them an opportunity to sue. That money belongs to me, not some dumb bitches who can't get out from under him. [Fin and Rollins look stunned] Is there anything else?

Benson

Who's the-who's the woman with Tucker?

Fin

You asking us?

Yeah, we got you in the divorce.

Fin

These IAB guys know how to rope 'em in.

Benson

One thing you can say about Ed Tucker - he settles his accounts.

Fin

So, which one's your bad knee?

Oh, we don't say "bad" anymore. We say "involved".

It's not the first time I've been cast out. It's a recurring theme.

Fin

Hey, listen, don't take it personally. There's a reason they call them a flock. They'll never leave him.

[about Mitchell] He's a risk analyst in Midtown. Never married, boring-ass Facebook...

Fin

He's a loser. No wonder he needs an app to get a date.

Fin, not everyone is as magnetic as you.

I'd offer you a beer, but what's the etiquette for guys illegally searching your apartment?

Fin

We have a warrant, but keep talkin'. Maybe you'll say something useful.

Captain, I know it's late, but I need a word with you and Sergeant Tutuola. Jayvon Brown has filed a lawsuit against NYPD. You've both been named.

Benson

Jayvon Brown had outstanding warrants. He wouldn't answer questions.

Fin

There was a crowd. You know how fast they turn.

Stop! You both sound defensive. These days, that's not a good look.

Benson

Chief, we were by the book.

That's the book that got us here! After George Floyd and Breonna Taylor, this city, this country are on boil. Business as usual will not work.

Benson

Did Garland say anything about me?

Fin

Yeah - watch your back.

Fin

Did Irina tell you to get Will?

Mark

This is how you treat a brother officer? No wonder you have lawsuits against you.

Fin

It used to be so simple. Just take down the bad guy. Now the lines are blurred. Half the city are looking at us like we're the bad guys.

It was an impossible summer. Things are gonna calm down.

I don't see that happening. The way the NYPD handled those demonstrators...

We were under attack. What do you want us to do, sit there and take it?

You're supposed to de-escalate. Assess the situation, be aware of our biases. We're not supposed to overreact.

Fin

You mean like shoot a man in front of his son?

Fin...

Fin

Look, growing up in the 'hood, the way the cops treated us, I never trusted 'em. That's why I joined the force, to make a change. Then I worked my way over to SVU because there's no gray area when you're taking down rapists and pedophiles. The last thing I wanted to be is another trigger-happy cop who kills a Black man. And here I am.
