Mark Valley: Jake Keegan

Quotes 

• [Stabler and Benson just found out that Tommy isn't Jake's son and are walking through the precinct hallway while discussing whether or not to tell Jake] 

  Detective Olivia Benson : He has the right to know.

  Detective Elliot Stabler : It's not our place to tell him.

  Detective Olivia Benson : Jake is raising a child that biologically isn't his. He's married to a woman who's being unfaithful. You think that ignorance is bliss?

  Detective Elliot Stabler : First of all, Tommy *is* his son. And Jake is the only father he's ever known. Now they love each other. Why do you want to mess with that?

  Detective Olivia Benson : Because it's not fair to Jake or Tommy.

  Detective Elliot Stabler : If Leah Keegan wants to tell her husband that Tommy's not his, that's her choice, not ours.

  [Olivia spots Jake sitting in a chair, having overheard what Stabler just said] 

  Jake Keegan : [Standing up]  What do you mean? Tommy's not my son?
