• Olivia Benson : [about Frank Maddox]  If he is a pedophile, at least he's out of their lives.

  Olivia Benson : Either way God help that child.

• Olivia Benson : [to Mavis about Frank]  How old were you when he and Catherine got married?

  [to Catherine] 

  Mavis Summers : You never should have put Chelsea through this.

  Catherine Summers : So this is my fault? What about what I've been through?

  Mavis Summers : You married him. He made you a star. You actually believe that people can think that you didn't know what kind of man he is?
