Quotes 

• Olivia Benson : [to Dede about Ken]  As charming as your loving fiance is, he's a reproductive abuser.

  Ken Turner : Excuse me? An abuser?

  Olivia Benson : You want babies, and you use women to make them.

  Ken Turner : Oh, and you got that from a ripped condom?

  Olivia Benson : The standard fail rate is 1%. Now, Dede, I bet Ken's rate is a lot higher than that.

  Ken Turner : You know what, our condoms break because we have so much fun in bed.

  [to Dede] 

  Ken Turner : Tell her.

  Olivia Benson : Or because you poke tiny little holes in them ahead of time. Now, the condom looks normal going on, and then, oops! It rips when you're having sex. Dede, this is a typical move of a reproductive abuser.

  Ken Turner : You know what, you don't have to listen to this.

  [to Dede] 

  Ken Turner : I have never abused you. You know that. I love you, and this baby is an expression of our love. And that's why we have to have it.

  Olivia Benson : Dede, all this phony sweet talk is to get you to give in.

  Ken Turner : Okay, you know what? We don't have to listen to this anymore. Unless you're gonna charge us. So are you charging us? No, all right. Thank you.

• Olivia Benson : Maybe Audrey's research can raise awareness about reproductive coercion and pass laws about it. Poking holes in condoms will become fraud with intent to deceive.

  Detective Elliot Stabler : Sure. Flushing birth-control pills down the toilet becomes larceny.

  Odafin Tutuola : And being a world-class creep can get you dead as a doornail.

• Dr. Audrey Shelton : [as she explains about what happened to Ken Turner]  Soon as I get there, he invites me out into the garden, starts seducing me. I told him I needed to use the bathroom, and I went looking for a knife. Found me a doozie. I joined him in the garden. I just meant to cut his penis off. Boom! Ken bursts open.

  [laughs] 

  Olivia Benson : Come on, Audrey, it's time to go.

  Dr. Audrey Shelton : Please, Olivia. Just a few more sips. They don't serve wine where I'm going.

• Detective Elliot Stabler : [to Audrey]  We know about Buffalo.

  Dr. Audrey Shelton : I'm impressed.

  Olivia Benson : You assaulted that guy with a baseball bat. You put him in the hospital. Why?

  Dr. Audrey Shelton : He was raping 10-year-olds. Newspaper called me a local hero. A.D.A. declined to prosecute.

  Detective Elliot Stabler : And Ken Turner hadn't broken any laws.

  Dr. Audrey Shelton : Don't give me that, Stabler. You wanted him punished too.

  Detective Elliot Stabler : I did want him punished, not dead.
