Rollins quotes from Law & Order: Special Victims Unit

[about Declan's guru program] There's a sucker born every minute.

Fin

Yeah, but everybody needs something. My ex made me go on a Reiki retreat to clear my energy.

Benson

And how'd that work out for you?

Fin

It made me realize it was time for us to break up.

Fin

NYPD.

What's going on?

Look deep into my eyes. You're under arrest.

You know Mitch is dangerous. I'm giving you a chance to save yourself, Carleen, and more importantly, your son.

You don't give a damn about my son because he's not an immigrant or a queer or a trans whatever the hell they're called. He's just a regular, old white kid, which, for some reason, is now a curse. Nobody cares about him or me. It's like we just don't matter anymore. Ask me, that's why we're in this mess in the first place.

Fin

[while arresting Byron in Cuba] Buenas dias, pendejo.

Fin

Guess what I caught. A couple of snapper, a sailfish, and one fat-assed flounder.

A bottom-feeder, huh?

Raped three women that we know about, and then he bolted before we could arrest him.

Most people just call me Byron.

Fin

[to Byron] Didn't I tell you to shut your face? [to Rollins and Carisi] The whole way home, he's yapping about old times.

You were sexually assaulted by an animal, Keesha. That has nothing to do with you.

That's what the lady doctor at the ER said. That's what Detective Benson said. What you said. Easy words to say, but you all get to go home at night. The next day, you move on to the next case. Truth is, words are useless without time. A lot of time.

We need you to testify.

No way that's gonna happen. Things are good for me now. I'm not gonna let that man take up any more of the time I got left.

Tell me that doesn't piss you off. We finally catch this prick, and they tell us that we wasted our time?

Marks was one of my first cases at SVU, and he still... he still ranks on my top ten despicable list.

Makes him a lot scummier than I thought.

Yeah, and he was one of the first stops in this investigation, and I... I knock on his door, and... and he invites me in, and he makes me feel, like, completely at home.

Yeah, with the fake charm and the...

No, but see, that's it. It's not fake. It's real. I mean, he really is that charming. You know, he was so charming, I could have invited him back to meet mom and dad after a high school dance. Yeah, I could have been one of those women. I got a badge and gun. And still, that bastard changed the way I look at the world.

An oh-fer. We'd have better luck starting the Byron Marks fan club.

Benson

Well, look, it's upsetting, but it's not surprising.

Yeah, I tried to explain that to him.

Look, I know. I'm sorry. It's just I'm Italian. Revenge is one of our three major food groups.

What's up?

It's my dog walker. Franny just peed on my new shag carpet.

Fin

That dog pees more than my diabetic granddaddy.

You got a granddaddy that's still alive?

Fin

Grandpa Iggy Tutuola. 95, healthy as a horse.

Except for the diabetes.

Fin

Where I'm from, diabetes is like a head cold.

[about Karr] I don't know him.

Sonny

Then why was he in your hotel room?

And why did he leave that room minus his balls?

Benson

Given the nature of the injury, there's a sexual motivation behind all of this.

Explains why Karr won't talk.

I can't prosecute the assault unless the victim makes an ID.

Sonny

OK, well how about we charge the three women with obstruction?

For asserting their Fifth Amendment rights?

Sonny

After they lied to us and obfuscated our investigation.

[smirks] "Obfuscate"? Yummy.

You know, it might feel good to take control. You know, you can keep a promise to yourself that if it does get bad, you could always do something about it.

You don't know how I feel.

I know more than you think. You know I told you my name was Amanda, too. Well, when I was your age, I lived in a tiny town in Georgia and everybody gossiped. And I did something stupid and I got a reputation. And it's all I thought about, the names that they were calling me: "Easy Ass Amanda" and worse. It took a long time and I realized what other people said about me, it didn't define me. Only I can define me. And when I was old enough, I went and got this. [shows her a tattoo that has her name on on it] It's my name, Amanda. Just to remind myself that's who I am, not any of these other names that I was branded with.

Benson

Teenagers have always been cruel, but when did they become cowards?

Since the invention of the Internet.

Benson

What kind of world are our kids going to grow up in?

Whatever we think we're gonna have to worry about, it's not gonna be that. It's gonna be something we never saw coming.

You got the wrong bro. And that little bit you got me with? Man, I'll be ordering lunch from my favorite gyro cart tomorrow.

Yeah? Well, unless they change the penalty for rape, you'll have to tell them you'll pick it up in about twenty-five years, all right?

There's no way I raped that ho.

Okay, so tell them it'll only be about three to fifteen. Because whatever was in that crap you gave her, it killed her.

Look, I never sold to the bitch.

Fin

The bitch? Are-are you trying to go to jail?

[sneers] Alright, I never sold to the "young lady".

Fin

But you knew her.

She was with a dude I did business with. Some white dude. Had a weird white boy 'stache. So what now?

Yeah, that's the dude. You see? I'm a good citizen, helping you out and all. So I can go now.

Benson

While we appreciate how devastated you are that your drugs are killing people... no. No, you can't go.

Who's she?

Benson

I'm the bitch that's gonna smack your pretty face next time I hear you say "ho".

Fin

Paternity's back. Congratulations. You're a winner.

Of what?

Fin

Of a dead teenager and her two-month-old fetus.

You knocked up Natalie Curtis when she was released to Altbrook.

Sonny

And then you raped her the night she died.

I-I never raped anybody.

Sonny

What do you call it when you trade an addict drugs for sex?

It's not rape when she's begging for it.

Sonny

That's the end of his career. No one's ever gonna touch him again.

Fin

How's he ever gonna make it with a mere 50 million in the bank?

Imagine walking around, everybody thinking you're a rapist.

Fin

He can just move to Hollywood.
