Quotes
-
Judge Ruth Linden : As the birth mother is deceased and no father or other relative have come forward, I officially declare Noah Porter an orphan and ward of the state of New York. He shall continue to be cared for in an ACS facility unless... Sergeant Benson, you rescued the infant, isn't that right?
Olivia Benson : Yes, your honor.
Judge Ruth Linden : You are the only one who has taken a consistent interest on his behalf. Is there any change you might like to become a foster mother to this baby?
Olivia Benson : I'm sorry. Excuse me, your honor?
Judge Ruth Linden : I have a feeling about this, Sergeant Benson. Call it a judge's hunch. If you agree, I will order Noah Porter into your care as custodial parent for one year, at which time you will be given the option to permanently adopt him. Do you agree?

Amanda Rollins : He's tall.
Olivia Benson : Yeah, like that is a skill set.
Amanda Rollins : You two have history?
Olivia Benson : I don't date lawyers.
Amanda Rollins : Since when?

Trevor Langan : I am looking for Ellie Porter. Sorry I am late; I just caught the case.
Olivia Benson : I thought she had a public defender. Eh, Rollins, meet Trevor Langan. He is a, uh, high priced mouthpiece for lowlifes.
Trevor Langan : And you once. How soon we forget. Nice to see you again, Detective.
Olivia Benson : It's actually Sergeant now. Eh, what? Caught a pro-bono?
Trevor Langan : Yeah, do a few of them a year. Keeps me an honest lawyer.
Lieutenant Declan Murphy : An oxymoron.

Lieutenant Declan Murphy : Take back your office. Tell everyone I said godspeed.
[picks up his umbrella and leaves the office]
John Munch : [walks towards the office passing Declan Murphy] I knew that guy. Who the hell is he?
Olivia Benson : Mary Poppins.
John Munch : What?
Olivia Benson : Never mind.
-
Olivia Benson : And CSU didn't get anything from the hotel room?
Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola : A midtown tourist hotel? They'll be going through bodily fluids, hairs and prints for weeks.
-
Olivia Benson : I did everything I could.
Lieutenant Declan Murphy : Did you?
Olivia Benson : What does that mean?
Lieutenant Declan Murphy : I don't know. You seem to have an antipathy towards...
Olivia Benson : Toward what?
Lieutenant Declan Murphy : Never mind.
-
Olivia Benson : Ellie, have you ever gone through full withdrawal? Hmm? I can see that you're shaking, huh? You're not feeling well. You're going to be crying, lying on the floor of your cell, curled up in the fetal position, puking your guts out.
Ellie Porter : Shut up.
Olivia Benson : Is that what you want? To be lying in a pool of vomit, dirty, pathetic? Because you have a chance to break this cycle. You have a chance to clean up your act.
Ellie Porter : You want to be my mommy? Lady detectives love saving girls like me, but I like my life just the way it is.
-
Olivia Benson : [about Amaro] $500.000? He is not a flight risk and he is not dangerous.
Lieutenant Declan Murphy : He acted like Dirty Harry. He beat a man bloody.
-
Lieutenant Declan Murphy : Just got off the phone with 1PP. Simon Wilkes admitted he threw the first punch at Amaro, instigating the fight.
Amanda Rollins : You're kidding.
Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola : So he's coming back?
Lieutenant Declan Murphy : Well, Amaro and his lawyer are with the D.A. right now. Whether he comes back to SVU or not is up in the air.
Olivia Benson : Up in the air? I know that you have hooks at 1PP. You tell them that this is not who he is.
Lieutenant Declan Murphy : It isn't? He came after me when I was undercover, sucker punched me on the street. Now I'm not gonna shank him, but I'm not helping him either. Every favor you use, you owe six more and I'm not wasting one on this guy.

Olivia Benson : Come on, Tino, who did it? Who gave the order?
Little Tino : I did. That bitch turned. She got what was coming.
Olivia Benson : Ah, so you gave the order.
Little Tino : Yeah.
Olivia Benson : Come on, Tino, who are you kidding? You still live with your mama.
