Mr. Kayman : About that deal?
Peter Stone : Man one, he does 20.
Mr. Kayman : Max is 25.
Peter Stone : Take it or I'll add statutory rape.
Mr. Kayman : You... you can't prove that.
Peter Stone : There's no spousal privilege when child abuse is involved.
Olivia Benson : [to Garrett] What jury is going to believe that you waited until you were married to sleep with someone that you loved so much?
[opening the door to let patrol cops in]
Olivia Benson : Get this douche out of here.

Peter Stone : So the way this usually works is, first there's a crime, and then we go to court and we nail the person that did it.
Olivia Benson : We can't tell if there's a crime until we know who the father is.
Peter Stone : We think it was an adult?
Olivia Benson : She won't say, and unless we can get her to take a paternity test, then we won't know who the father is and we don't know if she was raped.
Peter Stone : You realize her attorney's going to argue some form of "my body, my choice"?
Olivia Benson : She's 13 years old, Peter.
Peter Stone : And then we're gonna get hit with a heavy dose of her right to privacy.
Olivia Benson : Is there a chance? Just... is there even a chance?
Peter Stone : As long as judges are human, there's a chance.
-
Mr. Kayman : Obviously he was under extreme emotional distress.
Peter Stone : I can't go lower than man two.
Mr. Kayman : How much?
Peter Stone : Two years, one probation.
Mr. Kayman : You're kidding!
Olivia Benson : He killed a man.
Mr. Kayman : And what jury is going to convict him? Thanks, but no thanks.
-
Mr. Kayman : Well, this is a bit awkward.
Peter Stone : Objecting without grounds usually is.
-
Olivia Benson : This is preposterous. So the law doesn't care how sick this is.
Peter Stone : Look, bottom line, to a jury, Garrett's just an irate father who confronted the man he thought was sleeping with his stepdaughter.
Amanda Rollins : Even though he's the one that was raping her.
Olivia Benson : Yeah, it's not statutory rape if they're married.
Amanda Rollins : Bet you thought you'd never say that.
-
Mr. Kayman : Okay, we're here. Why? You got me. It's too late for a deal, Stone.
Peter Stone : I'm considering dropping the charges against your client.
Garrett Howard : Thank you.
Mr. Kayman : Yeah, no thanks necessary. He wasn't going to win anyway.
Peter Stone : I'm charging you, Mackenzie.
Mackenzie Tolliver : What?
Garrett Howard : You can't do that.
Olivia Benson : Actually, he can. Mackenzie, you're the one who put the false idea in Garrett's head that you were sleeping with Mr. Dreyfus.
Peter Stone : And it's completely foreseeable that a stepfather would take vengeance against the man sexually preying on his stepdaughter.
Olivia Benson : Especially when the two of you are so close.
