We're on your side.
ZZoe
Thank you. Either everybody at work has no idea what's going on or they're not acknowledging it, but it's making me feel real alone.
You're not. I promise.

S1 E15Unfinished Business
[a rape victim has recanted her accusation]
I know that this is hard to accept, but it is her life. Her decision.
She's not making a decision. The girl is being extorted!
Does she feel that way? Maybe this job, this money, will help her heal. Will give her closure.
I don't believe that for a second. And neither do you.
Of course not. So let's go find another way to bury this prick.
Okay, so Eli's self-interested coke dealer witnessed the rape.
Okay, so he's not a perfect witness.
Even if he's telling the truth, he's practically useless.
So... let's use him outside the courtroom to gather more evidence.
You think he's willing to wear a wire?
I think he's willing to wear a clown suit.
PPerry
This is our guy, and he's early.
Yeah, by over a week.
He's accelerating, which means it's only gonna get worse from here.
Ooh, pop up ad. Were you searching for brassieres, Carisi?
[defensively] No. A friend of mine was using my computer.
Your friend's a 34B?
So she thinks Willard is watching her?
Willard did say she was paranoid.
Women should be paranoid. It's a survival skill.
Did you look under Jennifer's kitchen sink that night?
WWillard
I'm sorry, under her sink? Is that some kind of a sexual metaphor?
No. We found your fingerprints on the handle of the cabinet underneath the kitchen sink.
WWillard
I... I have no idea what you're talking about.
I'm sorry. I'm obviously not speaking clearly enough, so my bad. I'm talking about you killing Jennifer. I'm talking about you hacking into the NYPD so you could impersonate the Pattern 23 Rapist. I'm talking about you finding rope underneath the cabinet, tying her hands, and then dumping her body at some construction site. Is that better? Is that more clear?
WWillard
Wow. You have a vivid imagination. It's impressive, no? But the truth is I'm far too smart to do something that stupid.
Or far too stupid to do something that smart.
GGates
I turned on the TV, saw Margery Evans spouting that inane defense of Harold. I couldn't stay silent any longer.
Thanks for coming in.
GGates
I should've known it wasn't just me.
Tell us what happened with Coyle.
GGates
You're gonna need more paper.
We don't give up this fight. You stop fighting, the bullies win.
Not the ruling I was hoping for.
So where does that leave us?
Two witnesses. Heidi Sorensen and George Thanos.
Is that enough to go to trial?
If I'm willing to go out on a very high, very shaky limb.
I assume that's a yes?
Damn right it is.
"The Endless Truth" is still pushing that garbage. Now some of its readers are making threats against you and Rollins.
What about Jessie and Noah?
Self-investigators like that guy Malcolm, they're interested in them.
[reading] "Someone should take those kids from their so-called mothers and test their DNA. Crack the sex ring. Let the truth ring out."
Arrest the son of a bitch who runs that thing.
For what?
Breathing.
[about Duca] You think she's gonna rip his head off?
If she doesn't, I will.
Where does he take the girls when they get there?
He's got a couch and a room in the back. I mean, this guy is first class, all the way.
Filthy couch in the back room with the pots and pans. Prison's gonna be a step up for this guy.
Not sure he's gonna see it that way.
[about Declan's guru program] There's a sucker born every minute.
Yeah, but everybody needs something. My ex made me go on a Reiki retreat to clear my energy.
And how'd that work out for you?
It made me realize it was time for us to break up.
NYPD.
DDeclan
What's going on?
Look deep into my eyes. You're under arrest.
