Quotes
-
Olivia Benson : [as she enters her office, she sees Tucker sitting on the couch] Tucker. To what do I owe the pleasure?
Ed Tucker : What? I can't just pop in?
Olivia Benson : No.

Dana Farhidi : [to Olivia about Owen] Can I take him now?
Olivia Benson : The court gave you custody, but the question is, Dana, can you take care of him?
Dana Farhidi : Look, I love Owen, but I am afraid to do this by myself. And Sam is a really good father, and I think that Owen needs him. Can you tell the DA?
Olivia Benson : That's not your decision. The DA will plead this down to unlawful imprisonment, it's a misdemeanor, but Sam could get six months.
Dana Farhidi : Six months? How will I support myself?
Olivia Benson : You'll have to figure it out. You get a job. Right, there are a lot of working mothers.
Dana Farhidi : It's been so long, I wouldn't even know where to start.
Olivia Benson : So learn. You have a child, Dana. It's not about you anymore. You need to be the parent, not Owen.

Ed Tucker : [to Olivia] Well, I was sniffing around 1PP this morning, and the scuttlebutt is they want a lieutenant in here. They're not happy with a sergeant running the squad.
Olivia Benson : Last I checked, I was doing a pretty good job. We busted Johnny D's sex trafficking ring. We took down Yates after Chicago botched it.
Ed Tucker : And they've noticed. They're open to the prospect of you staying on. That's why I told them you already filed for the Lieutenant's exam.
Olivia Benson : I haven't.
Ed Tucker : Then do it. Don't make a liar out of me.
Olivia Benson : I'm quite happy with the way things are, thank you.
Ed Tucker : They want a lieutenant. If it's not you, it's gonna be somebody else.
Olivia Benson : I don't know what to say.
Ed Tucker : That's a first. Think about it. Also think about who your second whip would be. Better you pick than a blind draw.
