• [last lines] 

  Abby Clarke : I haven't heard from Steven in three days. He won't return my calls.

  Olivia Benson : Well, you know... well, maybe he just needs a little time, you know.

  Abby Clarke : I was looking so hard for this amazing life.

  Olivia Benson : Look, Abby, you did nothing wrong. You were honest about everything; about your life, about your relationship, about Steven. If you want him back, fight for him. But if he doesn't get it... it's not worth the fight.

  Abby Clarke : [collecting her things and standing up]  Thank you again.

  Rafael Barba : Best of luck.

  Olivia Benson : Take care.

  Rafael Barba : [watching her leave]  Who knows? Maybe it will all work out.

  Olivia Benson : Yeah, I hope so.

• Olivia Benson : Your boyfriend said that... that you think you were sexually assaulted last night?

  Abby Clarke : [ready to cry, but trying to fight back tears]  I can't believe I even went to that thing. I should've known better.

  Olivia Benson : Okay, the only person to blame is the one who did this to you. So, do you... do you know who that is?

  Abby Clarke : Yeah. His name's Declan Trask. He's a... he's a healer. He was supposed to change my life.

• Olivia Benson : I know that this threw you off guard, but the fact is we went through all of this in prep, so you just gotta trust the prep. You are ready.

  Abby Clarke : I know, but I...

  Olivia Benson : Did you... did you talk to Steven? Did you give him a heads up?

  Abby Clarke : No, I tried three times. I can't get back up on that stand and read that letter aloud. It'll destroy him. It will destroy us. I love him. He stood by me through all this. I just wanna be done.

  Olivia Benson : I know you do. I understand. This is an extremely painful and difficult process. But I just need you to know that if you do choose not to get up on the stand, that... that Declan Trask will walk free.

  Abby Clarke : Steven will never forgive me.

  Olivia Benson : I think the question is will you forgive yourself if you... if you give up now? They are shaming you into giving up. You didn't do anything wrong, Abby.

• Olivia Benson : Abby. You okay?

  Abby Clarke : I don't know.

  Olivia Benson : You did a very brave thing.

  Abby Clarke : Thanks for believing in me. I couldn't have done it without your help.

  Olivia Benson : It was all you.

  Rafael Barba : Trask is going away for a long time.

  Abby Clarke : Good.
