Elliot told me to tell you you are nuts.
That's just concussion talk.

Hey Liv, what caliber gun do you use in the NYPD?
38.
Oh, mine's 40.
That gun there, that's a 9 mil.
Aah, mine's 10. And you know what they say: Size does matter.
Domestic terror charge is gonna put you under 40 years to life, Mitchell.
It'd be in your best interests to tell us where Haley is.
MMitchell
I don't have a clue!
He's not very bright.
Nope. Obviously not. Dum-dum tried to put dynamite in a freezer.
You put a cop in the hospital, Mitchell.
Do you have any idea how bad it is for you, Mitchell?!!
MMitchell
Do you?! You can't keep raping the Earth! This little campfire is nothing compared to what's coming!
What's comin', Mitchell?
What's comin'? We're listening.
MMitchell
Don't worry. You won't be able to miss it. It's gonna light up the sky.
Stabler [to Beck] Welcome to the world of gray.
Why haven't you signed the divorce papers? It's been months, Elliot. You won't talk to me. You won't talk to my lawyer. The kids are asking if we're getting back together. I've run out of things to say.
What do you want?
An answer.
I don't know.
Well, I guess that's an answer.
[about Beck] What time did she get here?
She never left.
Some people should not be allowed to drink coffee.
[after Lorraine's testimony leads to Trenway pleading guilty to Nikki's rape]
NNikki
Miss Delmas, how can I ever repay you?
LLorraine
Move on. Live your life. Don't lock yourself away like I did.
Maryellen had so many bite marks on her body, doctors couldn't count 'em all.
BBrent
Well... one man's bite is another man's hickey.
Brent Allen Banks is free.
Free on bail?
Free to go and kill again free.
Don't tell me this had anything to do with my uncle's meltdown in court yesterday.
No, though that was special. We just finished the suppression hearing. The bite mark evidence was thrown out.
Well, get it back in.
Judge already ruled on it.
And because that evidence was our case, he threw out the indictment.
How could you let that happen?
[sarcastically] I guess I suck.
Just so you know... everybody loses it their first kid case.
I'll get used to it.
When that happens, transfer out.
Having a baby by your rapist isn’t something you hide from your husband. That’s just twisted.
My old partner’s a child of rape.
That was a different era. There were no abortions, no options.
You saying it was easy for Olivia's mom?
I`m saying decisions are simple when you have no choice.
If you make your wife give up that child, she'll resent you for it for the rest of her life.
BBarry
Could you raise a rapist's child? Could you?
[pause] Go home. Talk with your wife.
BBarry
What is there to say?
Your partner back in New York - does he find you as annoying as I do?
We're best friends.
But does he find you annoying?
[Benson is arrested while undercover, and appointed a young public defender]
MMellott
My name is Delray Mellott, and I'm your assigned public defender--
What are you, 12?
MMellott
I'm 25.
Oh, this is great!
Mr. Peters? Here? This late? You gotta be kidding. Partners are all outta here by happy hour.
Well, you got any idea where he might be?
He doesn't share his social calender with first year associates.
Come on, man. Help a brotha out. My Captain's gonna put me on permanent midnights if I don't find him.
And if I don't get this distribution exactly right, my ass will be on the street. Sorry, "brotha".
Guess the only color he cares about is green.
