Quotes 

• Detective Olivia Benson : SVU: it's the only unit where the victim's word isn't good enough. You have to prove that a crime was committed.

• Rafael Barba : [to Jocelyn After it's discovered she didn't write her book]  I told you the first day the one thing you decide not to tell us is the one thing the defense is gonna use to destroy you. What were you thinking?

  Detective Olivia Benson : Barba, she gets it.

• Detective Olivia Benson : [to Rollins]  Scaring someone into getting a rape kit? Sometimes it's better to build trust.

• Captain Steven Harris : [about Jocelyn Paley]  If she's not pressing charges, why are we wasting our time?

  Detective Olivia Benson : Captain, you're new to SVU. Victims sometimes take time to process.
