Quotes 

• Peter Stone : Your certitude is a good thing, Liv. Hell, it may even be noble. Unfortunately, the law...

  Olivia Benson : Can you stop? Please, just stop. I've, uh... I've heard the lecture before.

  Peter Stone : Maybe, then, you should listen.

  Olivia Benson : Maybe you should listen. Lourdes was raped. Her entire being - her past, her present, and most importantly, her future - negated.

  Peter Stone : That doesn't entitle her to seek revenge.

  Olivia Benson : But it does entitle her to reclaim what was once hers. And if revenge is part of that, then... then so be it.

  Peter Stone : You don't believe that.

  Olivia Benson : I believe that the wrong person is on trial.

• Diego Diaz : Nice bar. You know, where I'm from, we only have two types of vodka: cheap and cheaper. I'm here for a funeral. My brother.

  Peter Stone : I'm sorry.

  Diego Diaz : I loved Jorge. As much as you love your sister, I'm sure. Pamela, if I'm not mistaken.

  Peter Stone : You do realize I'm an Assistant District Attorney?

  Diego Diaz : That's why we're talking, Mr. Stone.

  [he downs his drink and grimaces] 

  Diego Diaz : Mm. And that's why you're gonna drop this case. Lourdes will get deported, and then... our justice system will take over.

• Olivia Benson : Miguel Lopez is a trafficker.

  Peter Stone : Do you have any evidence of that, other than Lourdes' word?

  Olivia Benson : Not yet, but I will.

  Peter Stone : Until then, my hands are tied.

• Olivia Benson : All I'm saying is that I... I won't make a very good witness.

  Peter Stone : Did Lourdes Vega point a gun at you?

  Olivia Benson : Yes, but she also...

  Peter Stone : Did she prevent you from leaving that apartment?

  Olivia Benson : Yes.

  Peter Stone : You will do fine.

  Olivia Benson : And what happens when Rojas asks me what went on between Lourdes and Miguel?

  Peter Stone : Legally, it's irrelevant.

  Olivia Benson : And what about morally?

  Peter Stone : What does that even mean?

  Olivia Benson : Maybe it means that whoever's less guilty wins.

• Peter Stone : You're right to have ambivalent feelings about this case.

  Olivia Benson : No, no, you're wrong. There's nothing abivalent about this.

  Peter Stone : What if Miguel wasn't the coyote who raped her?

  Olivia Benson : He's the guy!

  Peter Stone : Were you there? Do you have any evidence that he is the trafficker?

  Olivia Benson : [biting her tongue]  I don't know how to get through to you.

• Olivia Benson : So Miguel walks, and you're putting his victim on trial.

  Peter Stone : I offered a deal. It was refused.

  Olivia Benson : So drop the charges.

  Peter Stone : Not for murder. Even if I could, she would be deported. Is that what you want?

  Olivia Benson : No, it's not. But if she agrees to testify in a trafficking case, she will be granted asylum and go into witness protection. An inmate at Rikers threatened to skin her alive. That has to come from the cartels.

  Peter Stone : We can get her into protective custody. At least until the trial is over. But I have to drop the charges against Miguel.

  Olivia Benson : So he can run back to Mexico.

  Peter Stone : We don't know he's gonna do that. We don't know he's anything other than what he says he is: a website designer.

  Olivia Benson : With business associates who use hidden cameras to transmit on the dark net. They are hiding something.

  Peter Stone : Then find me a reason to charge Miguel or turn him over to the feds or the Mexican federales or all of the above.
