Chris Butler: Sergeant Mullen

Quotes 

• Olivia Benson : What's going on?

  Nick Amaro : The father's not coming.

  Olivia Benson : [to Sergeant Mullen]  No, no, no, no, no. No, no, no. Let me talk to your boss.

  Nick Amaro : It's not him. Sandow won't cooperate unless we drop the charges.

  Olivia Benson : He doesn't care about his son?

  Sergeant Mullen : Do we know who else is in Eddie's life?

  Nick Amaro : Yeah, Fin and Rollins are trying to get in contact with the mother and sister in Canada.

  Olivia Benson : The mother's not going to be any help. He hates her. So now I have to go in there and tell him that his father's not showing?

  Sergeant Mullen : Tell him we're working on it. You tell him the truth, he could lose it.

  Olivia Benson : And if he senses that I'm lying, it's over.

  Sergeant Mullen : Detective...

  Olivia Benson : If he asks me, I'm telling him the truth.

• Sergeant Mullen : The father's at Rikers. It's bad precedent.

  Olivia Benson : That kid is 19 years old, going on 10. He has no impulse control. His father is his whole world.

  Sergeant Mullen : And you want to drop him into this?

  Nick Amaro : You got a better idea?

  Olivia Benson : Eddie already feels that his girlfriend betrayed him. If we jerk him around, he's going to turn on me too.
