Quotes 

• Olivia Benson : [to Amelia]  How was the hearing today?

  Officer Amelia Albers : They asked me in front of 20 officers how wide I opened my mouth during oral sex.

  Olivia Benson : I am so sorry.

• Olivia Benson : [while Olivia and Rollins show Amelia a photo array of suspects]  Could any of these men be the ones that you danced with in the kitchen?

  Officer Amelia Albers : [while looking through the photos]  Maybe him. Him. And him.

  Amanda Rollins : Okay, good. Could they have attacked you?

  Officer Amelia Albers : Look, I'm not sure it was them. Okay? It was dark. The way they pinned me down, I couldn't really see their faces. Look, maybe we should just let this go. I don't remember. There's no point.

  Olivia Benson : But you do remember that they pinned you down.

  Officer Amelia Albers : I-I don't want to wrongly accuse somebody.

  Olivia Benson : I understand.

  Amanda Rollins : Because the cook said that you were still in that bar when they left.

  Officer Amelia Albers : Yeah? Okay, so what?

  Olivia Benson : So were the guys from the base with you?

  Amanda Rollins : They didn't log back in until 1:00 A.M.

  Officer Amelia Albers : Okay, well, maybe they went someplace else.

  Olivia Benson : Or maybe they got you drunk and figured they could do whatever they wanted to do.

  Officer Amelia Albers : No, I let myself get drunk, okay? We were dancing and okay, so maybe we made out a little bit.

  Olivia Benson : Made out? What does that mean?

  Officer Amelia Albers : We were just dancing closely.

  Olivia Benson : And?

  Officer Amelia Albers : Lipitt started kissing me and Wooten put his hand up my skirt.

  Olivia Benson : And then what happened, Amelia?

  Officer Amelia Albers : [crying]  I can't say!

  Amanda Rollins : Did they rape you?

  Officer Amelia Albers : I'm going to get dishonorably discharged. I'm going to let my family down, my father.

  Olivia Benson : I know how hard this is, but you got to try to find a way to deal with it, okay?

  Officer Amelia Albers : I should have just taken it. I should have let them do what they did to me and I should have just shut up about it.

• Officer Amelia Albers : What happens now?

  Rafael Barba : We prep you for trial.

  Olivia Benson : Okay, we're going to go over that night and make sure that your account is consistent.

  Officer Amelia Albers : What are they saying?

  Olivia Benson : Well, what all rapists say, which is it was consensual.

  Officer Amelia Albers : They think that I wanted that?

  Rafael Barba : Their attorneys are gonna hit you hard on being drunk, on not telling the truth right away.

  Officer Amelia Albers : You have no idea what it's like for the women on the base. The hazing... you can't show that you're weak.

• Olivia Benson : Amelia, you didn't do anything wrong.

  Officer Amelia Albers : I'm an ensign. I am supposed to be able to take care of myself.
