ADA Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr. : [to Rollins] I'm sorry. I just don't want to live like this anymore. I feel like I got a live hand grenade in my pocket and if this comes out during a trial, that's gonna blow up in our faces.
Detective Amanda Rollins : Okay, so, what, you want me to take a full-page ad? I don't want to leave SVU.
ADA Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr. : You don't have to. I floated this to HR as a hypothetical and it turns out if we both disclose to our bosses, we're fine.
Detective Amanda Rollins : Do we have to do that now?
ADA Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr. : Okay, when then? One year? Five? Look, Amanda, I... I don't want to push you someplace that you don't want to go, but what are we doing here? Are we going to try and make this work or not?
Detective Amanda Rollins : Are you... are you seriously asking me that? 'Cause I've never been this open, honest in a relationship.

Jesse Murphy Rollins : Uncle Sonny, Billie has a question.
ADA Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr. : Yeah, sure, what is it?
Jesse Murphy Rollins : She wants to know if you're her daddy.
Detective Amanda Rollins : You tell your sister if she has a question, she needs to come out here and ask it herself, okay?

ADA Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr. : What am I gonna tell Ashley's father? He's calling me. He's still freaked out.
Detective Amanda Rollins : And I don't blame him. I think everybody would have been better off if none of this had ever come up.
ADA Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr. : Of course you'd think that.
Detective Amanda Rollins : Of course... what's that supposed to mean?
ADA Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr. : Come on, Rollins. You won't tell the people we work with or your kids that we're involved. You haven't even told Billie who her father is...
Detective Amanda Rollins : Okay, easy, easy.
ADA Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr. : I get it. You grew up having to compartmentalize. It's a survival mechanism.
Detective Amanda Rollins : What are you, my shrink now?
ADA Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr. : No, I'm not your shrink. I just I don't want to be Uncle Sonny forever.
Detective Amanda Rollins : You're not gonna...
ADA Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr. : We're nine months in, Amanda and your kids still don't know who I am to you?
Detective Amanda Rollins : So which is it: do you want me to disclose our relationship to NYPD or just to Jesse and Billie? My dad? How about your parents? How come I haven't met them yet?
ADA Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr. : Because you don't want my mom to know that you're my girlfriend. I'm going to bring a "colleague" home for Sunday dinner? Do you know how strange that would be?
