Quotes 

• Dominick Carisi Jr. : This is all an act, claiming him and Zoey are in love, pretending he doesn't know the difference between what's real and what's not.

  Odafin Tutuola : He's not faking, Carisi. You stay on those screens long enough, you'll convince yourself that that's reality, and this... this right here is a simulation.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Oh, come on. I don't buy it.

  Odafin Tutuola : The longer you've been a D.A., the less you remember being a cop. You gotta get out of your head and into his.

• Katriona Tamin : Aren't you supposed to protect the victim?

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Actually, my job is to uphold the law. Is there a reason that you don't like me?

  Katriona Tamin : I just can't believe that you were ever a cop.

• Dominick Carisi Jr. : [about Zoey]  She got on camera and told her fans that she wanted somebody to sneak in, hold her down and assault her. Now we know she didn't mean that literally, that she didn't consent to it, but it could get complicated for a jury.

  Olivia Benson : Well, lucky that they have you to explain the difference between fantasy and reality, Counselor and the reality is that he's a stalker.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Yeah, and she cams, mostly undressed for hundreds of fans for hours...

  Olivia Benson : Carisi, how quickly we switch.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : I'm just showing you how the defense is going to play this, so make sure Zoey is prepared for that.

• Zoe Carrera : [about Gabe]  Discovery? That's bull. He's getting off on this. He can't wait to cross-examine me, make me say whatever he wants. I can't do this.

  Katriona Tamin : Zoey, his defense is that it was consensual. If you don't testify, then he gets away with rape.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Yeah, the judge will make sure that he doesn't get out of line. If he tries anything, he'll be held in immediate contempt.

• Katriona Tamin : Carisi, you're really just gonna let this happen?

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Good morning to you too, Kat. How are you doing?

  Katriona Tamin : Not great. It's bad enough Gabe is allowed to represent himself in court, but now, he gets to go to her apartment?

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Well, it is the crime scene and as of last January, the defense and the defendant are allowed to examine it.

  Katriona Tamin : Just so you know, Zoey is completely freaked out.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : I understand that. I don't blame her.

  Katriona Tamin : She's insisting on being there.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : That's not a good idea, but that's really up to her.

  Katriona Tamin : Well, is anything up to us? I mean, is there anything that you can do?

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Do you mean I am able to change a state law in the next hour?
