Quotes
-
Olivia Benson : So what have we got?
Detective Ed Green : We're not sure. Now, you didn't get any strange phone calls last night? Any messages, anything logged in as a missed call?
Olivia Benson : No. And you're certain that your vic was trying to call me?
Detective Joe Fontana : His life flashed before his eyes. You were the star player.
Olivia Benson : And you say his name is Patrick Sullivan?
Detective Ed Green : Ring any bells?
Olivia Benson : None.
Detective Joe Fontana : Maybe his face will.
Olivia Benson : [Green pulls back the sheet over the victim] Never seen him before in my life.
Detective Joe Fontana : Which begs the question...
Olivia Benson : Why did he die trying to call me?
-
Anita Van Buren : You check the SVU database?
Odafin Tutuola : BADS, NITRO, online complaints. Patrick Sullivan doesn't show up as a victim or a perp in any of our files.
Anita Van Buren : [to Fontana and Green] Walk me through this crime scene again.
Detective Ed Green : 16th floor of an empty office building. The victim was supine with a bullet to the chest.
Odafin Tutuola : Fluids?
Detective Joe Fontana : Victims's blood, but something tells me that's not what you're asking.
Detective Ed Green : He was alone and zipped up.
Anita Van Buren : Which doesn't sound like a sex crime.
Olivia Benson : Exactly. So why did he try to call me?
Detective Ed Green : [to Benson] Just 'cause he's not in your files, doesn't mean he's not connected to a case.
Olivia Benson : Good luck. I give out thousands of business cards a year. Victims, families, witnesses. I mean... could be anybody.
Detective Joe Fontana : Well, there is something else we should consider, Detective Benson. Suppose this is not about a case. Suppose it's personal.

Olivia Benson : Real piece of work. That's Lorraine Dillon. The blonde is April Troost, her daughter. 25, IQ off the charts, but good luck trying to find a heartbeat.
Detective Joe Fontana : You had 'em on racketeering?
Olivia Benson : And they walked. Not this time.
Detective Joe Fontana : You realize this is a long shot?
Olivia Benson : Sullivan died trying to call me. You were right. This was personal.
