- Chester Lake: [incredulous] I should take career advice from you?
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: [turns, angry] What's that supposed to mean?
- Chester Lake: I did my homework before I showed up. Yeah, Stabler and Benson get gold stars in Cragen's class; where does that leave you?
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: I'd like to answer that question outside.
- Chester Lake: I'm sure you would, friend. But that would be even dumber than ignoring me. You don't like me, fine. But you know there's a connection between my bodies and your victims.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: [pause] We don't find a link in 48 hours, you solve your cases and I'll solve mine.
- Chester Lake: [nods] Done.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Try to keep up.
- [Chester smiles and follows him]
- Oliver Mitsakos: [Oliver backs into interrogation grate as Fin menacingly comes after him] I would never rape anyone; you gotta believe me.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Why? You lied about knowing Ming.
- Oliver Mitsakos: She was in my class 3 years ago; she barely spoke; I barely remember her!
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: She remembers you. "Come to my office for a little one on one tutoring."
- Oliver Mitsakos: I never said that!
- Chester Lake: Well, what did you say?
- Oliver Mitsakos: I - I told her that she needed extra help because her papers were poorly written.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: [puts him in the chair] You're still lyin', kid; you flirted with her every day!
- Chester Lake: [behind Oliver] You were aggressive.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: And desperate.
- Oliver Mitsakos: That was a long time ago.
- Chester Lake: [leans in front of Oliver on his hands] Old wounds still burn. So you went back and raped all the women who've rejected you.
- Oliver Mitsakos: [frustrated] No!
- Chester Lake: Anna.
- [slams picture on table]
- Chester Lake: She dump you? Maya.
- [slams her picture on the table]
- Chester Lake: Break your heart? Rose.
- [slams picture on table]
- Chester Lake: Blow you off? Is that why you raped and murdered them?
- Oliver Mitsakos: I don't know those people!
- Chester Lake: [sits and cocks head] Let me tell you about them. You thought they were all Brooklyn trash. Nothin' but warm-ups for your ultimate target. Kara Bawson, your ex-fiance.
- Oliver Mitsakos: [laughs and smiles with mirth] You're crazy.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Naw; you lost your meal ticket and your chance of getting rich quick.
- Chester Lake: You wanted revenge.
- Oliver Mitsakos: [leans forward] I didn't do anything. I swear.
- Detective Elliot Stabler: [knock on door; Elliot enters] Fin. Moment?
- [turns and exits so Fin can follow him]
- Detective Elliot Stabler: You just got an emergency call, urgent.
- [Chester comes out]
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: You can talk. That's Chet Lake, Brooklyn SVU.
- Chester Lake: Chester.
- [shakes Elliot's hand]
- Detective Elliot Stabler: Elliot.
- [sighs]
- Detective Elliot Stabler: You got the wrong guy. Your perp just hit again. Victim's in the E.R. at Mercy. Name's Edie Rimpo.
- [Chester and Fin look at each other shocked and walk away to go to Mercy and talk to Edie]
- Chester Lake: Been to Brooklyn lately?
- Kara Bawson: No. I've been too busy setting up the new exhibit to go anywhere but the gallery.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: How about Hudson University? You spend any time on campus?
- Kara Bawson: No, but I used to date a guy who got his MBA there.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Y'recognize her?
- [holds picture of raped college student]
- Kara Bawson: No. Why?
- Chester Lake: She was attacked by the same guy who raped you.
- Tom Bawson: [enters] Sweetie, you ready to go?
- Kara Bawson: Not yet, Dad. These are police officers.
- Tom Bawson: Honey, you wanna go upstairs and finish packing?
- [He gently leads her into a hug and she stoically leaves the scene as he looks back at her]
- Chester Lake: She's taking a trip?
- Tom Bawson: After what she's been through, Kara needs to get away and rest.
- Chester Lake: Your daughter's a victim of a rape. We need her here until we finish our investigation.
- Tom Bawson: Our numbers in Italy. Call if you have something.
- [turns to leave]
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: [Fin and Chester follow him] You're not helping by yanking her out of the country.
- Tom Bawson: The press is all over this case.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: They can't print her name.
- Tom Bawson: Everyone knows she works in that gallery! We're trying to protect her from rumors.
- Chester Lake: We will call your daughter. I think she's connected to some of my cases in Brooklyn.
- Tom Bawson: This bastard has raped other women?
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: An Asian-American college student was attacked a couple of days ago.
- Tom Bawson: Asian-American? Start with Oliver Mitsakos.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Who's that?
- Tom Bawson: Kara's ex-fiance. My squash partner runs the hedge fund where Oliver works. He told me this little jerk has a thing for young Asian hookers.
- Ming Hao: [off-screen] When I got off the subway, the platform was empty.
- [a shot of Fin, then showing Ken by her, listening to her story; Ming sniffs]
- Ming Hao: I was headed for the stairs, and all of a sudden a man grabbed me.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: [quietly] Take your time.
- Ming Hao: He dragged me behind a pillar.
- [shudderingly gasps]
- Ming Hao: He bent me down. He put his hand over my mouth.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Did you get a look at him.
- Ming Hao: Only for a second. He had a bandana around his face. I closed my eyes.
- Ken Randall: What did he do?
- Ming Hao: He made me tell him I liked it while he did it to me.
- [shudderingly gasps]
- Ming Hao: Then he started choking me.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: What happened next?
- Ming Hao: I heard shouting. People yelling "stop." He got up and ran away.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Did you see who was shouting?
- Ming Hao: No; when I opened my eyes, everyone was gone.
- [Ken looks back at his father, slightly shaking his head]
- Ken Randall: They must've chased him.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: [sincerely] You're doin' good, okay? This is gonna help us catch the guy that hurt you.
- Ming Hao: I don't wanna go to court; my parents will find out.
- Ken Randall: It's okay, Ming. You're not the first girl at Hudson to get raped.
- [quietly sobs in gasps and then gets up]
- Ming Hao: [to Fin] I knew I shouldn't have come here. I can't do this.
- [turns and retreats as Ken looks at her go and looks back desperately at his father]
- Ken Randall: I blew it.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: [without emotion] Fix it.
- [Ken gets up quickly and exits after Ming; Fin sits, somewhat affected]
- Olivia Benson: [Fin walks in hallway; Olivia comes from another hallway and meets with him and they walk quickly together] I saw Ken downstairs.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: He tell you how he screwed up?
- Olivia Benson: Aw, he seemed pretty upset.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Well, he should be.
- Olivia Benson: Look, he was trying to help. You can talk to her.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: The girl's a stone; we don't have time to squeeze blood.
- Olivia Benson: So you're not gonna do anything?
- [stops and Fin turns around to talk]
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Ming's the one throwing up the roadblocks.
- Olivia Benson: So, go around her. Look, take a crack at this. For your son.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: [quietly, nods slightly] I'll check the overnights to see if anybody who saw Ming being attacked called 911.
- Chester Lake: Hey, you Oliver Mitsakos?
- Oliver Mitsakos: Who wants t'know?
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: [walks over on the other side of Mitsakos] Southeast Asian Sex Tourism Board. Congratulations; you won a free cruise to Thailand!
- [Oliver gets up and chortles; looks at the two men, grinning]
- Oliver Mitsakos: Am I getting punk'd? Did Andy and Amber put you up to this?
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: I'm not Andy and that's not Amber.
- [shows badge]
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: You're about to be hating life.
- [Oliver begins walking away, smiling, and Fin and Lake follow to a discreet area of the office]
- Chester Lake: What the hell? You getting your massages with a happy ending? Huh? We hear you like 'em Asian and underage.
- Oliver Mitsakos: You meet a girl, you ask for her birth certificate?
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Where were you last night?
- Oliver Mitsakos: Home watching the Knicks lose.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: You know her?
- [shows Ming's photo]
- Oliver Mitsakos: [serious] Never seen her before in my life. Now if you'll excuse me, I gotta handle more money in ten minutes than you'll see in a lifetime.
- [puts head slightly down and walks away]
- Chester Lake: My gut says he's lying.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Your gut's a genius.
- [the men stop; Lake turns to Fin]
- Chester Lake: All we need is Ming to ID him.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: That's gonna be a problem.
- [elevator doors open and the men turn and walk to the doors]
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: [Title card: Hudson University; Alexander Hall; Thursday, December 7] We can't call her house and her cell phone's disconnected.
- [walking with Lake and Ken]
- Chester Lake: And the only time we can see her is when she's at school.
- Ken Randall: That'll be tough; her father's always with her, watching her like a hawk.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Well, if he sees us, we're facing a lawsuit.
- Chester Lake: Look, can't you get us somewhere we can talk to her in private?
- Ken Randall: She's in class right now. I'll go in, say the dean wants to see her.
- [walks away to Ming's class; cut to him exiting behind a deer caught in headlights Ming]
- Ming Hao: I can't talk to them.
- [walks away]
- Ken Randall: Please; they have a lead.
- Ming Hao: [still walking quickly] My father's waiting for me. Leave me alone.
- Ken Randall: Another girl was attacked.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Just look at the picture.
- Ming Hao: [turns and looks] I know him. That's Oliver Mitsakos. He was a T.A. for Intro to Econ my freshman year.
- Chester Lake: [Fin and Lake exchange multiple glances] You have any contact with him outside the classroom?
- Ming Hao: He tried to make me come to his office hours, but I wouldn't.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Why not?
- Ming Hao: He always flirted, but he was aggressive about it.
- Chester Lake: Was he ever physical or violent?
- Ming Hao: It wasn't like that. Just... really desperate.
- [shakes head slightly]
- Ming Hao: It creeped me out.
- [face shows realization; slightly raises her voice]
- Ming Hao: Do you think he did this to me?
- Roommate: [opens the door with Ken behind her; turns to Ken] Ming locked the bathroom door and won't come out.
- Ken Randall: [unaffected] What's wrong?
- [walks toward bathroom]
- Roommate: I think she was raped.
- [both stand still and look at each other for a few seconds and Ken continues to the door, listening for a bit]
- Ken Randall: Ming. It's Ken Randall. Are you okay?
- [shot to Ming sitting on the bathtub ledge, quietly sobbing, slightly bent down]
- Ken Randall: Anything you tell me stays private.
- Ming Hao: [voice trembling slightly] This isn't a school problem; I don't need an R.A.
- Ken Randall: My dad's a cop.
- Ming Hao: [silent for a bit] I'm not going anywhere.
- Ken Randall: I'll ask him to come here.
- Ming Hao: [slightly more hysterical] No, I don't want anyone to see a policeman at our dorm.
- Ken Randall: Ming, I promise. If you talk to my father, he will help you.
- [she continues sobbing and Ken continues to look at the direction of the door concernedly]
- Ken Randall: Ming.
- [the door unlocks and Ming, quietly sobbing opens the door, a few inches, blood running down her nose and her right side of her lower lip either bloody or bruised, and slowly opens the door more, not holding back her sobs]
- Ken Randall: [walks into S.V.U] Dad. I couldn't convince Ming to come back.
- [comes to desk and puts hands on the desk to support his weight]
- Ken Randall: What do we do now?
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: There's not much else we can do.
- Ken Randall: So, what, you just forget about her?
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: I can't force her to make a report if she doesn't want to.
- Ken Randall: She's in shock!
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Look, Ken.
- [sighs quietly]
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Going through a rape kit, testimony, cross-examination can be hard. Some women just wanna move on.
- Ken Randall: Please, Dad. I-I said the wrong thing and scared her off; I gotta make this right!
- [Fin looks away]
- Officer: [on the street with Fin, getting a cup of coffee] Yeah, they called it in alright.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Why didn't you file a 61?
- Officer: I didn't believe those two crazies. No victim; no evidence of a crime.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: What, you moonlighting as a crime scene tech now?
- Officer: You wouldn't've filed a report, either. The perp they described looked like the Unabomber. And I haven't heard anything on the news that he escaped.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Okay; I need the names of the witnesses.
- Officer: I didn't write 'em down.
- [sits on car]
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Well, I'm definitely gonna write yours down.
- Officer: Look, their eyes were bloodshot; they were stoned out of their gourds.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: [mad] That doesn't mean they couldn't help.
- Officer: The way they were dressed, they were the ones who needed help.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: What do you mean?
- Officer: His face was painted; she had black feathers all over her, like they came straight out of the nuthouse. Claimed they got off work at some restaurant.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Do ya remember the name of the joint?
- Officer: Uh, Joe's? Moe's? Poe's? Somethin' like that.
- Chester Lake: [to Fin] Scrapbooking is one of the most popular hobbies in America. Don't you watch Martha Stewart?
- Henry: [after being shot] I'm bleeding. Am I going to die?
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: It's just a flesh wound. You'll live.
- Chester Lake: My gut tells me that's not our guy.
- Det. Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola: Your gut's got indigestion.
