Stephanie March: ADA Alexandra 'Alex' Cabot

Quotes 

• Alexandra Cabot : [to Fin about Violet going undercover in her AA meeting to find Ronnie Marshall]  Whatever you're thinking, don't.

  Odafin Tutuola : Violet's our only way in.

  Alexandra Cabot : Violet would be acting as an agent of the police. Any evidence she obtains could be excluded in court.

  Odafin Tutuola : We're not looking for evidence, Counselor. We're looking for a lead. Nina Tremain might still be alive.

  Alexandra Cabot : We're talking about violating the confidentiality of a drug treatment program.

  Donald Cragen : Alex, I tell people in A.A. things I wouldn't want my best friend to know. Now I'd be the first to agree with you, but I don't see how making an appeal could hurt.

  Alexandra Cabot : I would prefer to get the information through legal channels. I'll get a subpoena.

  Donald Cragen : For what? N.A. doesn't keep membership lists or records.

  Odafin Tutuola : You want to tell that woman you care more about the law than the life of her child? She's living a parent's worst nightmare. You think I really had to run a number on her?

  Alexandra Cabot : All right, but the only way we do this is the right way.

• Alexandra Cabot : Putting Violet and Jessup together is a bad idea.

  Odafin Tutuola : She was strong enough to go to those NA meetings. We prep her correctly, I know she can handle it.

  [to Dr. Huang] 

  Odafin Tutuola : Back me up, Doc.

  Dr. George Huang : Jessup thinks he's saving Nina from an abusive parent. If you challenge his delusion, he might break.

  Olivia Benson : And if this doesn't work, the guilt will destroy Violet's life.

  Odafin Tutuola : A dead child's gonna destroy her even more. Nina's gonna die if we don't do something.
