Law & Order: Special Victims Unit · Season 1
Do you think you could recognize her again?
Sure could. [Elliot pulls a picture out and shows it to him] That's her.
You've been very helpful, Thank you. [walks outside where Olivia is on her phone with Fin]
Fin, it's Liv. Look, can you check with the lab for food wrapper and soda cans found at the scene? Yeah, great, thanks. [hangs up the phone]
Don't get your hopes up.
He didn't recognize Tandi's photo?
He recognized my daughter Kathleen.
I've known Tandi since she was 8. I watched that girl grow up. I supported her family when her father was sick. I've loved her like a daughter and to suggest that I might harm her is disgusting.
I'm touched.
You waste my time, send me on a wild goose chase?
I was tryin' to help you guys!
You contaminated evidence! You told that kid you're a cop to get him to make a false ID!
You got the perv, didn't you?
Wrong perv, but I tell you what... [locks Walinsky in a holding cell] ...where you're going you'll be meeting plenty of them.
You really went after Morton in there.
He killed a kid. He knew what he was doing.
You so sure about that because of something he wrote 15 years ago?
Eliot, he's screwing with us. This grief-crazed father crap, it's all an act.
I spend my life locking up skels for murdering children. The system says they go away to prison - fine. But if it were my son lying on that slab, I don't know what my rage would make me do.
[after Dr. Morton's acquittal]
Tel me one thing - when did you decide to kill Jake?
[pause] In the courtroom, once I knew what he was. You were right. I looked around, saw the officer, realized I could take the gun. I just waited for the right moment.
You manipulated us, just like Jake did.
There's one big difference. Jake would've killed again. I won't.
What do you most remember seeing after you entered the house?
Dead bodies.
Anything specific about them?
Bunch of dead bodies.
Then you think this is a big waste of your time.
Hell, no. I think we should all sit around all day and chat about our feelings.
Well, what do you want to talk about?
Well, it doesn't really matter. We can all talk until we're blue in the face. It's not going to change the fact that the human race is ever-evolving and will always come up with elaborate, repulsive, and depraved ways to kill each other.
And that's really the hard part for you, isn't it?
What?
That you can still be repulsed. As cynical as you try to be, you can still be sickened.
[Munch looks away]
If you want I can try to find the father of your baby. Do you know his name?
Abraham.
And who's Abraham?
He's my husband.
I'm afraid that... I won't be able to handle it.
But you are. By acknowledging that it affects you. That's the way you handle something traumatic.
Well, I guess the real problem is that I'm afraid that... that it's not working. [starts to cry]
Now, those women out there might be brainwashed, but you're not. You know exactly what he is: A murderer and a child rapist.
That's not true!
You knew who he was and you let this happen! You let all those children die!
It was God's will!
No, Sarah! It was your will! You can blame God, and you can blame Abraham, but we all know the truth! You did this! You sat there, and you watched as a man raped one of your children and then murdered the other! You might has well have killed him YOURSELF!!
Olivia!
[calmly] He has one of your children and he has your unborn grandchild.
This is a test. I won't be tempted.
[Benson leaves the room in disgust]
[to Reggie] Just relax, take a deep breath, and pretend you're just embezzling thousands of dollars like it's any other day.
How can you stand it? How can you invite this depravity into your mind? Your body? Your soul? They will kill you. Every horror, every torment afflicts your body. Like a cancer. It's devouring your, and you can't see it. Open your eyes.
You know, I just thought that you were just another con artist. Seeking out people who were starved for anything that would give them meaning in their life. They're easy marks. You talk about God, the apocalypse and they give you all their money. But you are much more pathetic than that. You actually believe your own hype. You've conned yourself.
All these men have come to kill me!
Shut your mouth, Eugene!
Why?! Because they know! They know that I am greater than man! I am greater than God! And they're afraid of what I can do!
[a gunshot is heard and Eugene hits the ground dead; Melanie is holding the gun and she starts sobbing; Benson rushes over, takes the gun away, and comforts her]
It's okay. It's okay. Put the gun down. It's okay.
That was a lie.
What was?
He said he was greater than God. But nobody is.
[Myra has accused Stabler of touching her inappropriately]
In 12 years, there has never been a complaint against this man.
Men change, especially when their wives file for legal separation. My investigator found the court documents. He also found out that she took the kids and moved in with her mother.
[angry but controlled] You have no right to use my personal life to make your case.
I don't give a damn about your personal life unless it effects my client, and it does. Stay away from her! I want Detective Stabler off this case, and I want SVU to do its job.
[Stabler leaves; Benson goes after him]
Elliott, hey, stop! What's going on?
I touched her in an inappropriate manner, didn't you hear?
I don't believe that. Forget that. What's going on at home?
Nothing.
Hey, would you talk to me?
[pause]
Kathy left me.
Elliot, what happened between you and Kathy?
Well ... the job made me kind of hard to live with.
She should try working with you.
