Amaro quotes from Law & Order: Special Victims Unit

[after getting shot] I always forget how much this hurts.

You think bragging to cops about shooting cops is a good idea?

[after he hears what Jenny's husband has done to her] All right, two choices: I go beat the crap out of this guy, or we call Barba.

Did I miss an episode of "Girls?" Remind me what a "rainbow party" is?

Folks, this is Detective Second Grade Nick Amaro. He just transferred in.

Second grade already, huh? You must have caught some pretty big fish.

Nah, just kissed a lotta ass.

Now, I did a lot of undercover work when I was in Narcotics. I know Fin did, too. The key to undercover work...

... is to choose an identity as close to your own as possible. I know the drill, detectives.

Right. Sorry, Captain, I just didn't know they had, y'know, tape recorders when you graduated the Academy.

Fin

At least we didn't have to inflate his bank account because he hasn't spent a dollar of his captain's pay on his wardrobe.

Thank you very much for your help, fellas, but I gotta prepare for my "cyber-date".

Fin

Knock it out, killa.

I heard that.

A guy like that... raping a girl in his own family, over and over... You think I wanted to talk to him? I wanted to tear his head off.

Benson

My old partner, he, uh... There were a few times he came pretty close.

How do you handle it?

Benson

You do everything you can to make sure he never sees the light of day again.

How 'bout a heads up?

How 'bout you keep up?

I didn't know it was a ladies' room.

You were aware there was a woman in there.

Well yeah, but I wasn't paying any attention to that. It was so dark in there I could hardly see anything. I told you all that when you arrested me.

Me? You mean Detective Tutuola?

Yeah, all you guys look a lot alike.

Look, I have a daughter myself, Mr. O'Keefe. I understand how you feel.

Really. Does your daughter flinch when you try to hug her? Does your daughter wake up screaming in the night? Was your daughter raped so brutally that she'll never be able to have children?

We're gonna get these guys.

Prove it.

[finding a bottle of pills in Sandow's desk] Erection meds.

Munch

Maybe he needed help with his "artistic process".

What've you got?

It's the lab report on the tissue samples from Sidney Eckhouse's autopsy. Father and daughter tested positive for the same strain of herpes.

Every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.

We're pulling video, checking licenses, doing stop and frisks on white males...

Fin

That's a nice change of pace.

[about Barnes] He's got a hundred kids out there, and he never thought for one second what it was like for them growing up with a hole in their lives. In pain. Fatherless.

So you became that father. Posed as Donor 141, arranged to meet the girls...

I just wanted to give them a father's love.

You people just don't see the big picture, do you?

Which is what?

Delia Wilson has evaded arrest for 10 years. Why do you think that is? Because she's got the goods on everyone you work for and everyone you could ever consider working for. You have no idea how deep this goes.

Benson

We'll do our job, you do yours.

What, you and your DA friend Haden? You're in way over your head, sweetheart. I usually get top dollar for my legal advice, but here's some for free - walk away, little people.

Watch yourself, counselor.

And you. You think your marriage is rocky now, kiddo? Wait 'til your wife finds out about you and your star witness.
