- Nick Amaro: [to Fin] Can I ask you something? What was the deal with Benson's partner? I heard some things.
- Odafin Tutuola: Stabler? He was a good cop. Him and Benson were together for 12 years. That's a decade longer than my marriage.
- Olivia Benson: [to Cragen] We're hiring another detective?
- Donald Cragen: Well, we're short-staffed. He's a good guy, out of warrants. He starts tomorrow. You have a problem with that?
- Olivia Benson: Well, it's hard enough showing one rookie the ropes and now we have two. I mean, what is this, a day care center?
- Donald Cragen: Elliot's not coming back, Liv.
- Olivia Benson: It takes me twice as long to explain the job to somebody else as it does to do it myself. Captain...
- Donald Cragen: It's not your call. Now you want to be here, you're gonna have to start working with other detectives. All right? Let him go. And you can start by packing up his desk. We can't keep it as a shrine.
- Odafin Tutuola: Well, it's still a big stigma in the black and Latino communities. My son's gay and he has to deal with that garbage on the streets every day. He's the bravest man I know.
- Prince Miller: [during a press conference] As players, we put our trust in coaches at a very early age. They teach us the game and they help us through school. They give us advice on life. Sometimes, they even hold our dreams in their hands. One coach betrayed that trust. Today, I made an important decision. I told the grand jury the truth about Ray Masters. How he recruited me for the Baby Barons, his summer league team, when I was 10 years old and how he started sexually abusing me on our first road trip, and continued until I was 15. Why didn't I come forward then? Because I was just a little kid. And I was confused and ashamed. And I didn't want to jeopardize my chances at basketball. And I'm sorry that I kept my secret locked up for so long. Because many others may have been victimized after me. I hope that they come forward and tell their stories too. Because I know they're hurting. But truth can be the best medicine. What we all have to remember is, the shame is not ours. It's his.
- Supreme: [to Fin] Hey, man, you got your 20 years in yet? I mean, when you put your papers in, why don't you come on down and work for me. I take real good care of my soldiers.
- Olivia Benson: No job for me, Supreme?
- Supreme: I don't know, sweetheart. Uh, can you dance?
- Prince Miller: Look, me, my mother and my brothers, we started off in one room in the Tilden Houses and now we live in a 40,000 square foot estate in Bernardsville, New Jersey. Lamborghini Murcielago's my knock-around car. Nothing has gone wrong in my life, okay?
- Donald Cragen: Folks, this is Detective Second Grade Nick Amaro. He just transferred in.
- Amanda Rollins: Second Grader already, huh? You must have caught some big fish.
- Nick Amaro: Nah, just kissed a lot of ass.
- Donald Cragen: Detective Amaro is being modest. Two years under in Narcotics, Warrants. He took down the MS-13 case.
- Olivia Benson: Well, this is a whole different world, Serpico. Not everybody has the stomach for it.
- Nick Amaro: I gotta call my wife.
- Odafin Tutuola: Short leash?
- Nick Amaro: Not exactly. She's in Iraq. It's a seven-hour difference.
- Olivia Benson: Iraq?
- Nick Amaro: She's in propaganda, you know, just trying to win hearts and minds. She's got eight months to go. If anyone could do it, it's her.
- Olivia Benson: [to Dr. Warner after Stevie Harris' death] Circumstances undetermined? All that heroin in his blood? The guy's not exactly an amateur. Somebody gave him a hot shot.
- Dr. Melinda Warner: Or he gave it to himself. What's undetermined, Detective is whether it's a homicide or a suicide. It's a cuppi: pending police investigation.
- Olivia Benson: Come on, Melinda.
- Nick Amaro: See, that's why the M.E.'s office is separate from the police. So they don't jump to our conclusions.
- Dr. Melinda Warner: Don't play me, Amaro.
- Nick Amaro: Never.
- Olivia Benson: [to Prince about who murdered Stevie Harris] You were telling the truth. It wasn't you. It was Supreme.
- Prince Miller: Supreme wouldn't kill Stevie, either. That's crazy.
- Olivia Benson: Wouldn't he? Supreme and Coach are the same. Coach ran you for ten years and now it's Supreme's turn. Neither one of them ever looked out for you, Prince.
- Olivia Benson: [to Dr. Warner] Look, Melinda, it's not our call. There's someone that we really like for this and we need cause to bring him in.
- Dr. Melinda Warner: I can't get you there. Your scenario works. Here's another one: you saw the beating he took at the club. He was concussed, got woozy, couldn't find a vein. Fielder's choice.
- Olivia Benson: So if it could go both ways. Then give us a break.
- Dr. Melinda Warner: Come on, Olivia. You know better.
