• Olivia Benson : [after Nathan shoots Ted Carthage to death]  Nathan, I need you to put that gun down on the floor now.

  Nathan Phelps : I didn't know what else to do. He was alive and my mom was dead!

  Olivia Benson : Nathan, I know. I understand that, but now I need you to listen. Okay? You have to give me that gun.

  [Nathan doesn't respond] 

  Olivia Benson : Nathan, I don't want anything bad to happen to you.

  Nathan Phelps : I didn't know what else to do. He was alive and my mom was dead!

  Olivia Benson : Your mother?

  Nathan Phelps : I don't even care anymore.

  Olivia Benson : I do. Your mom was really sick. I would be lucky to have a son like you. Anybody would.

• Mike Geddes : [to Nathan]  How old were you when your dad was stabbed to death?

  Nathan Phelps : Six.

  Mike Geddes : If you could, would you shoot the guy who stabbed your dad just like you shot Ted Carthage?

  Nathan Phelps : No.

  Mike Geddes : No? Why not? He stabbed your father.

  Nathan Phelps : I don't wanna kill anybody!

  Mike Geddes : Sure, you did. You were angry.

  Nathan Phelps : No.

  Mike Geddes : Yeah, Ted Carthage killed your mother. You hated him.

  Nathan Phelps : Stop it!

  Mike Geddes : You didn't kill because you saw the gun. You wanted to hurt him! You hated him and you wanted him to die!

  Nathan Phelps : Yes, I hated him, all right?
