Rollins quotes from Law & Order: Special Victims Unit

How long till he's out on appeal?

I don't care. It was worth it to see the blood drain out of his face.

Benson

He just got a taste of his own medicine.

So this is how the other half lives. Lots of elbow room, nice waiting area, cleaning crew comes through, what, four times a day?

Yeah, it's a regular Xanadu.

Fin

One more time. The night Muldovan shot at Gonzales...

You're asking... yeah, he could have been trying to kill him.

Benson

So this changes the trajectory of our investigation.

Benson

[about Lonnie] What's his prior?

He's on parole for the sex assault of a teenage girl.

Fin

He claims it was a Romeo and Juliet story.

Isn't that possible?

Sonny

You'd be amazed how many statutory rapists use Shakespeare as a character witness.

[on the phone with her father] Dad, we're already at the place. [pause] No, and no! [hangs up] He wants me to bring him a six-pack of Bud and a carton of cigarettes.

Sonny

[chuckles] He must be feeling better.

How much longer can this go on?

Sonny

I tell my mother, it's not endless, but it's indefinite.

Benson

Henry's 13-year-old sister is alive. She was staying with a friend out in Oyster Bay.

Now we have to tell a 13-year-old that her whole family has been murdered.

I know the job isn't supposed to be easy, but today was the first time it felt... wrong. Y'know?

That's part of the job, too. You've gotta get past that.

Ready? A lot riding on this...

Sonny

And if all goes well, my bosses will take all the glory.

And if it doesn't?

Sonny

Maybe we open up our own agency.

A woman raped in front of her kid.

Fin

Her three-year-old.

What kind of sick animal does that?

Welcome to SVU.

I'm on my own. I should have known. [leaves]

She's not wrong.

Sonny

By which you mean she's right... and we're wrong.

[about Haley] She was an artist. An athlete. She loved tennis. Roger Murray saw her potential.

Fin

What can you tell us about him?

After my husband's death, he saved me. He tutored Haley in the SATs, helped her college planning...

So they spent a lot of time together?

[pause] Is this about that writer and his podcast? I told him that I would never let my daughter's death be entertainment for people to listen to while they worked out!

Fin

We're only here as NYPD. We're just trying to give you some closure.

Closure? My husband and daughter are dead. I'll never see Haley walk down the aisle. I'll never bake cookies for my grandchildren.

We can't change what happened to Haley...

Hey, leave me alone! Ian confessed and Roger sends me a card every year on the anniversary of her death to let me know that I'm not mourning alone.

I guess your boss is pretty proud of you.

Sonny

Hey, don't start with me, Rollins. I already feel sick.

I never saw you as a bully.

Sonny

I'm sorry. I don't get to pick and choose when I do my job. What, are you mad at me about that?

No, I'm not mad at you. I'm sad at you.

What the hell is wrong with people?

Fin

Don't get me started.

Murphy

[about Povic] Anyone who comes up to a cop on the street is either crazy, lonely, or guilty.

I think he's hittin' all three.
