Law & Order: Special Victims Unit · Season 1, Episode 15

Benson and Barba in “Unfinished Business”

I screwed up, Rafael.

No. This was coordinated, planned, well-executed. Look, there's no way you could have seen this coming, Liv.

You know what the problem is with this job? What good do we really do? I mean, we come in after the fact with a broom and a mop and we clean up the mess. What would really matter, or would... really be special is if, just one time, we could prevent it from hitting the floor.

We prevent the next mess.

I should have seen this coming. As a cop, as a mother, should have seen this coming.

Well, you...

What?

Nothing.

You can't punch me harder than I've already punched myself, believe me.

Maybe you wanted this Sheila thing to work out too much. Look, maybe all you just wanted was a family.

Yeah. What was I thinking?

That's... why I shouldn't have said anything.
