Quotes
-
Casey Novak : [to Cragen] I don't know your detectives and I don't know you.
Donald Cragen : When you worked felonies, you had a different cop every case, right?
Casey Novak : Yeah, so?
Donald Cragen : Special Victims, it's just us. We gotta trust each other.
Casey Novak : You're asking for a hell of a lot of trust.
Donald Cragen : Either way, Kevin Walker goes someplace where he can't hurt anybody. You take him to trial, a good detective loses his credibility as a cop. He'll never be able to testify in court again. His only choices will be to quit or finish his career in the property clerk's office.

Casey Novak : [to Cragen] Can you assure me the defendant wasn't hurt and I'm not gonna get my ass kicked in court on a technicality?

Rebecca Balthus : Casey Novak?
Casey Novak : Yes?
Rebecca Balthus : Rebecca Balthus, Kevin Walker's legal aid attorney. Your, uh, boss order you to try my client?
Casey Novak : No, that was my decision, but the District Attorney did sign off on it.
Rebecca Balthus : Waste of time and money. Kevin's a lunatic.
Casey Novak : Your client kidnapped a 5-year-old boy, murdered a man and almost killed another who tried to stop him.
Rebecca Balthus : And a jury will institutionalize him quicker than you can say "cacisti."

Casey Novak : [to Stabler after Kevin has an outburst in court] What the hell was Kevin talking about?
Elliot Stabler : I have no idea.
Casey Novak : So it has nothing to do with whatever you got me to cover up?
Elliot Stabler : I'm not covering up anything.
Casey Novak : I put my ass on the line for you when I pled Kevin out. Now he's lucid, screaming about someone killing Martha...
Elliot Stabler : Well, I'm telling you, I don't know who this Martha is.
Casey Novak : You better find out. If there's been another murder in this case, I'm holding you responsible and your dirty little secret's going on the record.
