Lola Glaudini: Lena Hess

Quotes 

• Captain Olivia Benson : You know, if we find out that you have any connection to this assault, whether overt or implied, I'm coming back with a gift.

  Lena Hess : What's that?

  Captain Olivia Benson : A pair of bracelets.

• Lena Hess : [on the phone with Olivia while sitting on a plane]  Captain Benson, you got my thank you note for the bracelets you were so kind to give me.

  Captain Olivia Benson : Where are you?

  Lena Hess : On my way to Brussels. Or is it Dubai? Either one is so beautiful this time of year.

  Captain Olivia Benson : You trying to make me jealous or is there something that I can do for you?

  Lena Hess : You have my footage. A woman like you could do a lot with that.

  Captain Olivia Benson : You have no idea what kind of woman I am. Don't play with fire.

  Lena Hess : Well, that's no fun, Captain.

• Lena Hess : If men disappeared tomorrow, so would war and rape, and just about every other ill of mankind.

  Captain Olivia Benson : Wow. That is a bold statement. I.. I almost feel sorry for you, but I'm raising a son, who is good, and who is kind, and who is thoughtful.

  Lena Hess : I'm sure he is, but I'm guessing by the lack of a ring that there's no male example in the picture.

  Captain Olivia Benson : So all of this is to get back at men, to set them up, to blackmail them, for all the harm that they've done to the world?

  Lena Hess : I don't make them light the fire. I simply give them a little tinder. They put the match to it every time.

  Captain Olivia Benson : And victims like Maggie get burned.
