Law & Order: Special Victims Unit · Season 1
The detectives and Bob were speaking in code. Unfortunately, a good defense attorney could convince a jury that they weren't setting up a hit.
Oh, and then he gave the driver a $10,000 tip? This is what's wrong with ADAs. You're never happy.
You wanna know why? Because I have to get a jury to believe people like you.
There it is. St. Paul's.
That your church or your school?
Both. K through 8th for me and my sisters, Mass every Sunday. I got my first home run right there.
We talking girls or baseball?
An altar boy never tells.
An assault at the Bishop Club? I have to tell you, Captain Benson, I am so upset. I hoped that we were finally making progress.
I'm sorry to say that we're not. We have ample evidence that this assault did occur.
For what it's worth, I did speak to the club, the alumni, and the boys' parents. They tell a different story.
Don't they always?
Counselor, let me ask you something. We talk about this all the time. How come you never charge rape as a hate crime?
Rape as a hate crime based on gender? It's just not something the DA's office does.
You know what? Maybe it's time.
I didn't rape her, I swear to God!
But you helped them. And that's something you're going to have to live with, Jacob, for the rest of your life.
You've really covered yourself in glory here. This club has a drinking game named after you. Are you gonna tell me that none of these mating rituals went on when you were a member?
We weren't angels, but what we didn't do was target women for rape.
My father always said the club never should have let Jews in. What are you getting out of this, Goldstein? A promotion? How many pieces of silver are they paying you?
[Barth puts a hand on his shoulder to silence him]
No, no, let him keep talking. I'll put hate crimes right back on the table. You wanna talk to your client?
Online dating. Russian roulette.
[about Wright] The more I fought, the more he seemed to like it. He threw me over the couch and pretty much raped me. He didn't even realize... it was like hate sex.
I know what rape is. When someone says stop, I stop. It's not rocket science.
Miss Rose, it's been suggested by the defense that you conspired with the CFO, Cress Gordon, your godmother, to sabotage Mr. Wright's company in order to launch a new dating app. Did you profit at all from coming forward?
No, I did not, and I'm angry about what Cress did. This was never about money. I have no job. I'm going on unemployment. I just want to make sure that a man who uses his own dating app to prey on women can never do it again.
You say you know what women want. Did you know what your wife wanted?
Of course I did.
So you knew she wanted a divorce? That in the months leading up to her death, she was planning on leaving you? Correct?
Stop talking about my wife!
Why did she want to leave you? Is it because you accused her of being uptight too?
Objection!
Where is this coming from?
Never mind that. Yes or no?
[points to Gordon] From that lying bitch? You just couldn't help yourself, Cress, could you? Are you jealous because I had you once and threw you back? Or is it because I banged your precious goddaughter?
So Cress is lying, Lisa's lying...
They're all lying!
The objection is sustained! Mr. Wright, that is enough!
Your Honor, just give me a minute! That's what women do. They lie.
Mr. Wright, sit down!
[ignoring her] They push, they pull, they're mad, they're hot. And when they don't get what they want, they cry rape! They turn your wife against you. They try to destroy your company. You're not gonna get away with is, Cress! You're the one going to jail, not me!
That is enough! Mr. Wright, remain in your seat!
Your Honor, I request a break.
No need. I'm finished with him.
[to Velasco at a grisly crime scene] I hope you liked your breakfast because you might see it again soon.
[Kubiak's phone buzzes]
You gonna get that?
Oh, it's just my wife.
Actually, it's a cell phone number that Jorge called a dozen times last week. The last one was at 9:00 am this morning.
That's your life sentence calling, dude.
You have anything to say?
Screw you. Also, lawyer.
[to Kubiak] You are disgusting.
You know what? You should be giving me more respect, because I can get you to these girls before they're shipped off to God knows where to do God knows what.
I can't believe that you're even thinking about giving that piece of crap any kind of deal.
The priority is to find the girls and arrest the traffickers.
And you trust him?
We don't have a choice.
