Quotes 

• Virginia Pell : [to Olivia and Amaro about Rand's assault]  I appreciate your concern, detectives, but we'll take it from here. We have our own team of investigators.

  Olivia Benson : We don't subcontract our investigations.

  Virginia Pell : You do understand the delicacy of the situation. We need to control the publicity here.

  Olivia Benson : All of our cases are sensitive.

  Nick Amaro : We need your cooperation unless you want us to start issuing subpoenas.

• Olivia Benson : [about Donald O'Keefe]  He's not making it up; the part about the daughter.

  Donald Cragen : It doesn't mitigate. Assault, kidnapping. We're not here to make deals with vigilantes. There are legal avenues for settling scores.

  Nick Amaro : All of which he tried, Cap.

• Nick Amaro : [about Rand]  He called, asked to come in, then tanked the I.D.?

  Olivia Benson : Well, he got out of there fast enough once he saw Donald.

  Nick Amaro : He could have just been eyeballing Donald so his guys could take care of him later.

  Olivia Benson : Maybe Rand doesn't want us looking into what happened over there.

  Donald Cragen : Neither do I. It's not our concern.

  Olivia Benson : Hold on, captain. Let us at least talk to his daughter.

  Nick Amaro : All due respect, this speaks to O'Keefe's motive. It's part of this case too.

  Donald Cragen : Just remember which crime you're investigating here.

• Donald O'Keefe : [to Amaro]  You know, all my life I've tried to do the right thing. I signed up for the Marines as soon as I got out of school. When my country asked me to fight, I went. And I confessed and was ready to do my time because I trusted you people to get justice for my daughter.

  Nick Amaro : I know how you feel, Mr. O'Keefe. I have a daughter too.

  Donald O'Keefe : Really? Does your daughter flinch when you try to hug her? Wake up screaming in the night? Was your daughter raped so brutally that she'll never be able to have children?

  Nick Amaro : We're gonna get these guys, Mr. O'Keefe.

  Donald O'Keefe : Prove it.
