Olivia Benson is the bad ass, street smart but empathetic detective who has a close relationship with her partner Elliot Stabler. She has joined the Special Victims Unit because of her difficult past. She takes no crap from rapists, murderers, or child molesters. She never gives up on a case until it is completely solved, and she can strut like no other. She is sarcastic, funny, not to mention beautiful.

She is played by the one and only Mariska Magdolina Hargitay who was born to her parents Mickey Hargitay & Jayne Mandfield (who was a sex symbol of the 50's and 60's). She was born on January 23 1964, and she ended up being the youngest of their 3 children, her two older brother names Zoltan and Mickey Jr. She also has half siblings that include Jayne Marie Manfield, Antonio Raphael Ottaviano Cimber, and Tina Hargitay.

They were all involved in the car crash in 1967 after it smashed into the back of a trailer truck. This killed their mother on instant, however Mariska was only three and has no memory of the incident. Her and her brothers miraculously escaped with minor cut and bruises. Mariska now has a zig zag scar down the side of her head and part of her face from the crash.

She swam in high school and was going to make that her career until she majored in theater and never looked back. She majored in theater at UCLA but dropped out before graduating. Her motion picture acts were Ghoulies (Donna,1985), Leaving Las Vegas (A hooker,1995), Lake Placid (Myra Okuba,1999), and her latest Plain Truth (Attorney Ellie Harrison,2004)

In 1999 she was cast to play Detective Olivia Benson in the hit drama series 'Law & Order Special Victims Unit(SVU)' She, her partner Elliot Stabler, and the rest of the SVU squad deal with sexually related crimes and they work together to catch the criminals and solve the cases.

Mariska speaks English, Hugarian, French, and Italian. She married actor Peter Hermann on August 28, 2004 and should give birth to their child on June 21st, 2006. She was also one of People's Magazine's most beautiful people in 2005, and one of 100's of People's Magazine's most beautiful people in 2006. Peter and herself now spend most of their time in Los Angeles, and New York City, where she films Law and Order SVU.

Elliot Stabler is a smart cop who cares a lot about his family and his squad. He especially cares about his partner Olivia Benson (Mariska Hargitay), who is his best friend. He is quite reserved and quiet, but is also funny and determined to bring in the criminals. He works very well with Olivia, and often fantasizes about getting away with killing them.

Christopher Peter Meloni was born on April 2nd 1961 in Washington DC. Chris is half Italian, half French Canadian. Before getting his acting career, he worked numerous jobs such as a construction worker, bartender, a bouncer, and a personal trainer. He got his acting degree from the University of Colorado. He says he is often confused with a young Robert De Niro, or Elias Koteas.

He married his wife Sherman Williams on July 1st, 1995. They had their first child Sophia Eva Pietra on March 23, 2001, and their second child Dante Amadeo on January 2nd, 2004. Their children were born to a surrogate mother. He now lives in New York with his two children and his wife.

John Munch is probably the funniest of all of the Law & Order SVU cast. He is very sarcastic and doesn't talk when he is supposed to. At first people find him intimidating, but then he shows his outgoing and funny side. He enjoys to intimidate the rapists in the interrogation room, even though detective Benson likes to handle that.

John Munch is played by Richard Belzer. When he was in school, his uncontrollable wit was hard to handle, and he was kicked out of every school he attended. His mother Frances, died of breast cancer when he was eighteen years old. Then, his father commited suicide when he was twenty two. He has been married three times. He married Gail Susan Ross in 1966, and divorced her in 1972. He later married Dalia Danoch in 1976, and then divorced her in 1978. Then he finally married Harlee McBride in 1985, and is currently still happily married to her. He is a cousin to Henry Winkler, and his aunt and uncle were survivors of the Halocaust.

A.D.A. (Assistant District Attorney) Alexandra Cabot seems like the sweet and innocent one of Law & Order SVU. She lays back, and tells the detectives what they will need to put criminals behind bars, or search warrants, and jumps in when she needs too. She is very interested in the criminals lives, as well as her co workers, but doesn't get nosey. She takes the backseat, gives advice, and occasionally throws in a comical slur or gesture. She strongly stands her ground and gets into frequent arguements with her co workers, or even boss.

Stephanie March was born on July 23, 1974 in Dallas Texas. She attended the same high school as Angie Harmon. She graduated from the School of Speech, which is now called the 'School of Communication' at Northwestern University. She majored in Theater and Hispanic Studies.
She is currently married to chef Bobby Flay, who proposed to her while they were ice skating on December 19th, 2003. They later married in Febuary 20th, 2005.

Dr. George Huang is a quiet, smart doctor who does is a phychiatrist. and informs the detectives of things they might not have thought of. He usually jumps into the cases where they have mentally ill victims or suspects such as ones with skizophrenia. He lets the detectives know about their mental thoughts at the time of the murders.

B.D. Wong (Bradley Darryl Wong), was born on October 24, 1962 in San Francisco, California, and was also raised there all of his life. He is sometimes credited as the 'little' one, standing at only about 5 feet, 4 inches, and shorter then all of the Law & Order SVU cast members. He made numerous acting appearences before taking a lead role in Law & Order SVU. He appeared in 'All American Girl', 'Sesame Street', and 'The X Files'.

Him and his former girlfriend Richie Jackson welcomed their son Jackson Foo Wong on May 28, 2000, and is very close to his son.

Captain Donald Cragen is very quiet and sometimes can seem mean. He is the boss of the squad, and keeps the detectives in line. He gives them their cases, and informs them about the details about the cases as well.

Dann Florek was born on May 1st, of 1950 in Flat Rock Michigan. He majored in math and physics until a drama scholarship changed his career direction. From the 80's on, he received his biggest breaks, 'L.A. Law' & Law & Order SVU (Special Victims Unit).

His wife Karen, is an artist, and he has a brother named Dave. He is also an accomplished musician, and collects music memorabilia.

Odafin Tutuola, who is better known as 'Fin' to the rest of the squad, is very helpful and caring underneath his rough exterior. He replaces Detective Stabler as Benson's partner, when he is home raising family, or is injured. He is also very close with Detective Benson. He is very intimidating and throws around the criminals when he catches them.

Tracy Marrow, who is better known as 'Ice-T' ever since his hip-hop career started, was born on February 16th, 1958 in Newark, New Jersey.

He is known as the father of gangster music, and made careers possible for other hip hop artists such as N.W.A., Snoop Dogg, and The Geto Boys. In his early career he had a song called 'Cop Killer', which was filled with controversy, but years later shut up the critics when he became a cop on the hit TV drama series 'Law & Order SVU'. He is an ex-pimp, and now acts and writes best selling novels. He was also the first hip hop MC to ever perform the notorious 'C-Walk' in front of the camera in the 80's.

He has been married since 2004 to Nicole Austin, who is a swimsuit model. She is better known as 'Coco'. They also have 2 children, Latesha and Tracy Marrow Jr., whom they call 'Little Ice.'

Dr. Melinda Warner is a very sweet and sarcastic medical examiner that observes dead bodies and lets the detectives know about the internal state of the victims.

Tamara Tunie was born on March 14th, 1959 in McKeesport, Pennsylvania. She graduated from Carnegie Mellon University in 1981. She portrayed the character 'Jessica Griffin' on the soap opera 'As The World Turns', and one of her mentors Billie Allen, portrayed Jessica's mother Louise.

She acted as Melinda Warner on Law & Order SVU for five years before they made her a main part of the cast in the seventh season is 2005.

She has been married twice. First, to Greg Bouquett in September of 1988, and divorced in 1991. She is currently married to Gregory Generet whom she wed in October of 1995.

Lust over a body bag, now that's romance!

Pregnant Mariska with a guest star and her 2 boys

Benson: He smells expensive.
Captain Donald Cragen: Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I ask you to smell the defendent.

Det. John Munch: Now I'm a pain in my own ass.

Det. Olivia Benson: We blame all sorts of people for creating monsters, why not ourselves?

Randolph Morrow: Honey, I'd like some mineral water, a little ice.
Benson: Yeah, well, I'd like your balls in a blender, but ain't life a bitch.

ADA Alex Cabot: He is as bad as his client, hoping the victim is too traumatized to testify. He's lucky I didn't knock his teeth down his throat.
Det. Olivia Benson: I'd pay real money to see that.

Olivia: You didn't even ask me if I did it.
Elliot: I know you didn't do it. You would've shot the bastard
[Olivia smiles]

Det. Elliot Stabler - Liv, listen, this is just some crazy, stupid hoax.
Det. Olivia Benson - Well, maybe it is. And maybe all of you are all right, and I'm an idiot. But until I'm proven wrong, I'm gonna keep talking to this little girl!
Det. Elliot Stabler - Liv..
Det. Olivia Benson - She needs me Elliot.

Brian Cassidy: Have you ever thought about having kids?
John Munch: Why? I have you.

Olivia Benson: You're right. Friends should stick together. You and Daniel can share a cell on death row.

ADA Casey Novak: You didn't kill your mother, Olivia.
Olivia Benson: But I know what it's like to want to.

Olivia Benson: Stand By Your Man sounds much better when Tammy Wynette sings it.

Olivia Benson: [to Cragen] Denise Elderidge is a fruit cake.
Elliot Stabler: [interrupts them] And dessert is served.
[reveals Denise]

Suspect: Screw you.
Olivia Benson: I can screw you harder.

Olivia Benson: Where is everybody?
Elliot Stabler: Kathy took the kids to La Boheme. I passed.
Olivia Benson: So on your one night as a bachelor you go to the grocery store? That's pretty pathetic.
Elliot Stabler: Grocery store with strippers. Liv, you gotta let it go. You put a rapist on trial. You did your job.
Olivia Benson: I think I made it worse.
Elliot Stabler: Hey, you know that's not true.
Olivia Benson: I made Carrie relive the worst thing that's ever happened to her. I screwed any number of victims who might've saught counseling from Bethany Taylor. And a few less rapes may be reported because of it.
Elliot Stabler: And if Michael Gardner is convicted he'll never rape another woman.
Olivia Benson: It's not worth it. It's not worth the cost.
Elliot Stabler: To you or them?
Olivia Benson: I'm not talking about me.
Elliot Stabler: Yeah you are. For as long as I have known you, you've always identified with the victims. Now maybe that's because you're a woman... I don't know. But I do know it's one of the things that makes you a great cop. It's also one of the things that makes this job torture sometimes. You can never go back and change things that have already happened, Olivia. You can't.
Olivia Benson: You kill yourself, to make something happen. Or you do nothing and it doesn't matter. There's always another child molester. There's always another rapist. And it's like you have to sell a little piece of yourself to get the job done. So what the hell's the point?
Elliot Stabler: I don't know, maybe there isn't a point. Maybe the cost is too high. Olivia, no one's making you do this. The difference between you and all the victims is you can walk away.
Olivia Benson: No I can't.

George Huang: I'm not confident with calling the suspect a serial killer.
Fin: How many guys she gotta whack until you're confident?

Elliot Stabler: You have the right to an attorney. In the unlikely event that Daddy can't afford to buy you one, one will be provided for you.

[Stabler drove out of his way to check on Benson]
Olivia Benson: I sure as hell wouldn't drive all the way to Queens just to save *your* ass.
Elliot Stabler: Yeah, you would.
Olivia Benson: [pause] OK, but only because you have a wife and kids.
Elliot Stabler: Yeah.

[Detectives Stabler and Benson are on their way to interview a Chinese rape victim]
Olivia Benson: We're gonna need a translator.
Elliot Stabler: Doc, can you translate?
George Huang: What, you assume I speak Chinese?
Elliot Stabler: No, I heard you order take-out once.
[Benson giggles]

Olivia Benson: Were you a car thief in a former life?
Fin: No baby, Boy Scout - always prepared.

Fin: Alright. Nice dress.
Olivia Benson: Yeah, well, it was a nice date. Where's Munch?
Fin: He rang in sick.
Olivia Benson: He's such a hypochondriac. How many times has he had anthrax this week?

Fin: How's this for a deal. When you are right about to be executed for raping and killing all those girls, I'll bring you your last meal, how's that?

Cop: It's Mona Sidley. I recognized her by her binoculars.
Olivia Benson: Not her face?
Cop: She doesn't have one anymore.
Olivia Benson: Yikes.

Police Psychiatrist: We still have 45 minutes.
John Munch: Well, I could give you a complete detailed account of my sex life... but what are we going to do with the other 44 minutes?

Elliot Stabler: Pick up the phone.
John Munch: The wacko on line 1 or the psychotic on line 2?

[Fin starts to put eye drops in his eyes]
John Munch: Can I have some?
Fin: No
John Munch: Please?
Fin: No, that's how you get pinkeye.

[Benson and Stabler are going to a party store to try to find a suspect]
Elliot Stabler: While we're there, remind me to get party tape for the twins' birthday party. I don't want to have to use crime scene tape.

[Interrogating a victim who has killed her seven rapists]
Olivia Benson: Sit down in the chair, Maggie.
Maggie Peterson: Where's Elliot?
Olivia Benson: Just us girls now. SIT. That act of yours was a whole lotta fun to watch. But you should know that it's not gonna work with me.
Maggie Peterson: What act?
Olivia Benson: Pretend to be a victim, you can pretend to be a whore, you can pretend to be whatever it is you wanna be. It's a joke. Maggie, you're done.
Maggie Peterson: Where's my son?
Olivia Benson: Oh... see, that's not gonna work either.
Maggie Peterson: I do not believe that you are talking to me this way. I was RAPED more times than I can REMEMBER!
Olivia Benson: Right, and your mom died, and your dad beat ya.
[Maggie nods]
Olivia Benson: Your mom's alive. No dad on the birth certificate, you never knew him, did you? Was your mom a pro, too?
Maggie Peterson: Where's my son? I need to see him.
Olivia Benson: Your son? You're never gonna see that kid again. You MURDERED seven men for a HOTEL ROOM and a MANICURE!
Maggie Peterson: They RAPED me!
Olivia Benson: You want the whole world to think that you're a victim? Well Maggie, you're getting your wish. Because the state's gonna kill you.
[Maggie lunges at Olivia, and Olivia elbows her in the face, then walks out of the room]

Fin: Why do we always get stuck looking for the needle in the haystack?
John Munch: Yeah, it's reminds me of the Easter egg hunts of my youth.
Fin: Your family's Jewish, you guys don't hide eggs.
John Munch: I know, all those mindless hours of searching.

[after running down a suspect]
Fin: Make me run on my bad knee. Whatta bastard.

John Munch: So why'd you leave narcotics?
Fin: My partner took a bullet that was meant for me, kinda took all the fun out of it.

Dr. Audrey Jackson: Have you ever expiericend any sexual dysfunction since taking this job? And I'd like a serious answer.
Det. John Munch: Once.
Dr. Audrey Jackson: Thank you. And when was that?
Det. John Munch: Not sure, but I think it was somewhere in the last ten minutes.

Fin: You have the right to an attorney and if you throw up in my car, I'll kill ya.

Brian Cassidy: So why didn't you ever have kids? Didn't want the responsibility?
John Munch: I wouldn't want to give a kid the responsibility of me.

[after finding a dead couple in a park]
Olivia Benson: He's got a wedding ring, is this a married couple?
Elliot Stabler: Trust me, married couples don't have sex in parks.

Elliot Stabler: Tidy...
Olivia Benson: It could use a splash of color.
Elliot Stabler: [points to black, gray, white and red painting on the wall] There ya are...
Olivia Benson: Thanks Stabler, but blood red wasn't what I had in mind.

Olivia Benson: Oh, WHAT IS WITH you people, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? Do you have a conscience? You RAPED and KILLED a LITTLE GIRL!

Olivia Benson: You've got an answer for everything, don't you. I'm not buying your "loving father" act. Tommy's terrified of you.
Dan Hoffman: My son is everything to me, I would die for my son.
Olivia Benson: Tommy almost died for you. You killed Jill and then you left him alone in that apartment. And had firefighters not responded so fast, you'd be burying him along with your dead wife.
Dan Hoffman: You wouldn't dare talk to me like that if you didn't have that badge and gun.
Olivia Benson: Well, I guess we will never find out if thats true or not will we?

M.E. Melinda Warner: I got the report back from the contents of the vomit.
Olivia Benson: Am I going to want to stop eating for this?
M.E. Melinda Warner: Roast beef, mozzarella cheese, corn and raisins. Luckily, it had only been in the stomach a few hours, so it was only partially digested.
Olivia Benson: All right, I'm done.
[pushes her salad away. Elliot shrugs and takes it]

M.E. Melinda Warner: [performing an autopsy with the detectives present] No fluids present. Tests show spermicide common in condoms.
[removes an organ from the body and weighs it]
Elliot Stabler: This is fun.

Olivia Benson: What happened between you and Cathy?
Elliot Stabler: [shrugs] Uhh, the job. Makes me kind of hard to live with.
Olivia Benson: She should try working with you.

[a date-rape victim]
Kelly D'Leah: What if I'm pregnant?
Olivia Benson: I'm probably not the best person to ask.

Harry: You sons of bitches. You said I wouldn't have to take a needle.
Olivia: Yeah well, oopsies, we lied.

Perp: I was just trying to help her up.
Olivia Benson: With your penis?

John Munch: I was never much into sports. My hospital basketball coach said I looked like a retarded gazelle with a with a spastic disorder. Mr. Daley. Real loving guy.

[Looking through a victim's purse for ID]
Olivia Benson: No jewelry. I always carry at least a pair of earrings in my purse.
Elliot Stabler: Yeah, like you carry a purse.
Olivia Benson: That's 'cause you carry it for me.
Elliot Stabler: Heh...

[the squad has been working for four days straight]
Olivia Benson: I've read the same paragraph five times and I still have no idea what it says.

Olivia Benson: Do people have sex in bed anymore?

Olivia Benson: What's your name?
Suspect: Screw you!
Olivia Benson: Screw You, you're under arrest for attempted rape until we nail you for the other eleven.

LA Srgt. Ed Tucker: You need anger management, Captain.
Capt. Donald Cragen: And you need to kiss my ass.

[Olivia is investigating the case of a man who rapes women on the subway. Nick is reporting the case. They're kissing in her apartment]
Nick Ganzner: Let's pretend.
Olivia Benson: [smiling] Pretend what?
Nick Ganzner: That I'm the guy on the subway.
Olivia Benson: [stops smiling] OK, stop it.
Nick Ganzner: Just for fun.
Olivia Benson: No, no. No, really, stop it.
Nick Ganzner: What would you do?
Olivia Benson: [pushes him away] Oh my God. Wow.
[heads for bathroom]
Olivia: I'm gonna go wash my face, and my hands, and my mouth, and, uh, there's the door. Make sure you're out when I get out of here. [slams door]
Nick Ganzner: Nice job..
Olivia Benson: [pushes hair out of her eyes] Well..what can I say? I'm a cop, and a bitch!
Nick Ganzner: Nice mix..
Olivia Benson: Yah, I'd say so [jumps on the couch and continues kissing him]

George Huang: What's the first thing you remember seeing after entering the house?
Elliot Stabler: Dead bodies.
George Huang: Can you be more specific?
Elliot Stabler: A bunch of dead bodies.

Elliot Stabler: [after being asked why he joined SVU] I think sex should be one of the best experiences in life, not one of the worst.

Fin: [after finding a twinkie inside a lunchbox, buried underground 30 years prier] Do Twinkies last forever? Give you twenty bucks, take a bite.

Monique Jefferies: So you're saying *all* women are whores?
John Munch: Don't be ridiculous. I don't know *all* the women in the world.

Stabler: Hey — what are we looking at?
Detective Mourad:(leading Stabler into the living room)
No sign of forced entry, two glasses of half-drunk wine, two clean sets of prints — lovers' quarrel.
Stabler: Lover's quarrel — they usually kiss and make up.
Benson:(holding up a condom wrapper)Detective — pack of ultra-ribs.
Detective Mourad: (turns to Stabler) Looks like maybe they did more than kiss.
Benson:(annoyed by the comments) Yeah, he read her a little Walt Whitman, they made hot, passionate love, then right before he rolled over and fell asleep, he heaved her out the window — excuse me — through the window.
Detective Mourad: I'm not sure what this outburst is leading up to.
Benson: Rape.
Detective Mourad: (laughs)Like I said, no forced entry.
Benson: I didn't say it was a stranger.
Detective Mourad: Plus, she wasn't exactly dressed in her “refusal” outfit.
Elliot Stabler: I didn't hear you say that.

John Munch: Detective Tutuola...come pollute your soul with some child porn, my friend.

Olivia Benson: I'm still with you, Maria.
Maria Recinos: No, you're not with me. I'm alone.
Olivia Benson: As long as you're on the phone, I'm with you.

Maria Recinos: Most of the time there's only his footsteps. Other nights it's more. Those are the nights I feel like dying.
Olivia Benson: (sighs)Okay Maria, I'm going to help you, we almost know where you are, sing me a song baby.
Maria Recinos: No, I'm tired.
Olivia Benson: No, no, no, sweetie you can't fall asleep on me now, c'mon honey, teach me some more Spanish songs..c'mon!

Maria Recinos: He hurts me really bad. And sometimes his friends hurt me and he takes pictures.

Can You Say HOT?!

--Look at each other, and draw their guns in sync--
Olivia - We kick ass!
Fin - You just noticed?
--Olivia smiles, they put their guns back in their holsters, and start walking down the street--

You have the right to remain silent, if you give up that right, anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have a right to an attorney. If, for whatever reason, you cannot afford one, one will be provided for you.
Oooo I memorized it!

^^ Love her facial expressions..its like me..I get so into a ^^ story..my face gets interesting to watch..lmao Chantelle!

Claire: (to Fin) I would hug you, but I can tell you don't like to be touched.

Fin: Benson...
Olivia: Hm?
Fin: Cragen's looking for you.
(Olivia gets a "what'd I do this time?" look and walks to Cragen's office)
Olivia: Hey, we just found our guy from the Miller case. Can this wait?
Cragen: Close the door.
Olivia: What?
Cragen: Sit down, Olivia.
Olivia: What??
Cragen: Really, I think you should sit down.
Olivia: Just tell me, what's going on?
Cragen: Your mother had an accident. [long pause] I'm so sorry. She didn't make it.
Olivia: How?
Cragen: She fell...down the subway steps. 110th and Broadway.
Olivia: No.... my mother never takes the subway.
(Olivia's facial expression at this point is COMPLETELY HEARTBREAKING!)
Cragen: The entrance outside the Velvet Room.
Olivia: [long pause] She was drunk. (Cragen nods, and a single tear rolls down Olivia's cheek...)
I started to cry at this point..:(

Cragen - Liv, what are you doing here? I told you to take time off.
Olivia - I did.
Cragen - Half a day?
Olivia - I want to talk to Corinne..[a rape victim]
Cragen - Olivia...
Olivia - Look, Captain. It took me a long time to realize my mother was an alcoholic, and I had to face those consequences.
Cragen - I want you to do something...[about her feelings after the loss of her mother]
Olivia - How about my job? I'm okay..
Cragen - Okay..
Olivia - Thank you Captain..

Olivia: Hey. I'm headin' out. You wanna grab a drink?
Alex: Thank you. But you know, I am just not in the mood.
Olivia: Well, neither am I, but I don't feel much like goin' home.
Alex: Do you think I pushed Cheryl too hard?
Olivia: You did your job.
Alex: Then why do I feel so lousy?
Olivia: Because you look at Cheryl, and you can't imagine what it's like to feel that your own body is a mistake.
[Alex nods, Olivia's cell phone rings]
Olivia: [on phone] Benson. We'll be right there.
Alex: What's up?
Olivia: I gotta go to Bellevue. You should come with me.
[at Bellevue]
Olivia: Special Victims Unit, you called about a rape victim?
Nurse: They're taking him up to surgery now.
Alex: [looking at Cheryl on the gurney] What happened?
Nurse: Cheryl Avery [who is a female cross dresser] was gang raped at Rikers.

Michael Gardner: Why didn't you question me, Detective Benson?
Det. Olivia Benson: I was preparing your victim for the lineup.
Michael Gardner: Oh. So it wasn't because I punched you earlier that night?
ADA Alexandra Cabot: Objection! Relevance?
Michael Gardner: I'm trying to ascertain whether or not the detective has a personal stake in my rest in prosecution.
Judge Lois Preston: I'll allow it.
Det. Olivia Benson: I have no personal stake in you.
Michael Gardner: You're not mad at me? Or, uh, embarrassed that I eluded your grasp in front of your colleagues?
Det. Olivia Benson: It's not uncommon for a perpetrator to lose control of himself. And I have certainly been hit much harder (smirks)

(A perverted suspect brushes Olivia's cheek and pushes her hair behind her ear when the detectives go to question a suspected rapist/murderer)
Suspect: Oooo! Hey honey!
Det. Olivia Benson: Knees him in the balls
Det. Elliot Stabler: (arresting the suspect) Maybe you shouldnt've called her "honey".

Ricki Austin: Leave us alone!
Olivia: Ricki, your daughter needs help.
Ricki Austin: Get away before I call the police!
Olivia: Mrs. Austin, I AM the police!

(Detectives Fin & Munch are bored after mindless hours of searching for some type of evidence. Fin decides to go search liscence plates, which a witness said had a 'H' or a 'B'..he wasn't sure..)
Fin - Well..I'm going to go search for a liscence plate.
Munch - Okay.
Fin - Wish me luck, I'm going to find an 'H' in a haystack!
Munch - (walking away) Or a 'B'
Fin - Or a 'B'...

Alex: For future reference, if your client intimidates the informant in any way I will have his bail revoked and his ass thrown in Rikers for the duration of the trial.
Zappatta: You can't threaten me, bitch.
Alex: I just did.

Benson: Oh, God — Excuse me.
(looks up at the window and walks over to the car)
(Reaches the car and is obviously troubled by what she sees. A dead woman, her face and arms all bloodied, is lying on top of a car.)
Anybody notify SVU?
Policeman: Cause she's not wearing panties, you mean?
Benson:(disgusted by the remark) Just cover her up!

Don Cragen: You know what, Elliot, you're a good man and one hell of a cop, but I don't know how Olivia put up with you all these years.
Elliot Stabler: Well, Olivia was a saint.

(Stabler talks with Benson after she comes out of Cragen's office.)
Elliot Stabler: What are you doing here?
Olivia Benson: I work here.

(Elliot, Olivia, John, and Fin are in Elliot's office at 1am, still trying to gather more evidence.)
Elliot - Look, guys, its 1:00 in the morning. Go home and get some shut eye.
Fin - You don't have to ask me twice (walks out)
Munch - See yah tomorrow
(Olivia is still sitting in the seat directly on the other side of Elliot's desk. At first he doesn't realize she's still sitting there, until he looks up)
Elliot - You too...
Olivia - Oh no, I'm too pissed to sleep! Yah need help?
Elliot - I'm not gonna say no...

(The two are heading in to interrogate a pedophile, discussing Benson's job at S.V.U.)
Elliot Stabler: It's in your blood.
Olivia Benson: That's the problem.

[Elliot talking to the doctor after he feels guilty about how he went to see if Olivia was okay after having her throat slashed, even though it wasn't life threatening. The little boy he was going to save instead of Olivia had his throat slashed and was killed]
Dr. George Huang: You had to choose between saving that little boy and saving Olivia.
Elliot Stabler: Yeah, but she didn't need me.
Dr. George Huang: You didn't know that.
Elliot Stabler: I wish I didn't ...
Dr. George Huang: Didn't what? Didn't...care so much? That's what makes you a good partner!

(Elliot is trying to convince Olivia to pull the trigger, both in urgent yet hushed tones.)
Elliot: You can do the right thing. I didn't I made that choice with Ryan and it was wrong. It was my fault. Don't do it. Don't make the same mistake.
Olivia: (crying) I would have done the same thing.

[Olivia knows that Stabler feels guilty about making sure she was okay instead of the boy (Ryan). She knows he is obviously mad at her but she doesn't say anything until this moment. After he lets an obvious suspect free to go]

Elliot: (to suspect) Your free to go..
(Olivia has a surprised look on her face and follows Elliot out of the interrogation room into the hallway)
Olivia: Hey...HEY!!
Elliot: He doesn't know anything..
Olivia: Do you have something you gotta say to me because if you do let's hear it!
[long pause, Elliot turns around and walks up to her]
Elliot - Why didn't you shoot Gitano?
Olivia - He was using the child as a shield!
Elliot - How could you let him get so close to you?
Olivia - There were innocent civilians around, I couldn't get a shot!
Elliot - Well, you got close, and now Ryan is dead.
Olivia - (looking shocked) So this is my fault?
Elliot - I can't do this anymore. I can't be looking over my shoulder making sure you're okay!
Olivia - You son of a bitch! You know thats not true!
Elliot - I need to know you can do your job and not wait for me to come to the rescue!!
(Cragen walks up to them when Olivia is ready to retaliate)
Cragen - ALRIGHT THATS ENOUGH!! KNOCK IT OFF!! Now in case you havn't forgotten there is still a little girl out there with a physcho, IF we're lucky and he hasn't already slit her throat. If I have to say this again to you you're both suspended. Now get your asses down to the mourgue, Warner's got something to show you.
(Elliot & Cragen walk away, but Olivia just stands there looking mad and very upset..almost started to cry...)

(Benson and Stabler are sitting on the bench outside a hospital room.)
Elliot: You and this job are about the only things I've got anymore. I don't want to wreck that.

Elliot Stabler: If that sniper hadn't beaten you to it ... I know you would have taken that shot Olivia.
Olivia Benson: No, I wouldn't have. Did you really think I would've caused your death, Elliot? What about your kids?
Elliot Stabler: I dont know.
(Both are silent for a moment.)
Olivia Benson: What about me?

[Elliot and Olivia walking together down the hall to SVU]
Elliot: You know I've been thinking.
Olivia: (looks interested) About what?
Elliot: That I spend more time with you then I do my own family...no offense.
[Olivia smirks]

M.E. Melinda Warner: When you find this monster, give him a special kick in the nuts for me, will you?

[The SVU squad has been up for 24 hours straight trying to find the little girl who is potentially with a child molestor. Everyone is a little moody.]

Cragen: OH MY GOD THIS PLACE IS A PIG STY!! [He kicks the garbage can and throws a popcan on the floor angrily]
Olivia: [jumps at the noise he made] Whoa! Captain! Your the one that said no janitors!
Cragen: Oh so this is my fault?
Olivia: I'm just saying...

[Elliot and Olivia walk up to a hot dog stand on the street]
Olivia: When you said you wanted to take me out to eat I thought we were gonna be sitting.
Elliot: Well..sit in the car!
Olivia: (rolls her eyes)

One of the reasons I love Olivia Benson so much is because she is wonderful with kids. She is usually the one be friending them..and do the interrogating. Here is a scene from one of the episodes I have called 'Abuse'

[Elliot & Olivia come to ask the nanny of a world famous pop star some questions after the popstars's little boy Corbin, dies. While Elliot is asking the questions, Olivia walks away and find their daughter Ashley underneath a coffee table in the hallway. She bends down, lifts up the table cloth, and starts talking to her.]

Olivia: Hi! Ashley right?
Ashley: (nods)
Olivia: (leans in a whispers) What are we hiding from?
Ashley: (shrugs..as if to say..I don't know)
Olivia: So..what do you do when your not hiding under there?
Ashley: School and lessons.
Olivia: Yah? What kind of lessons?
Ashley: Tap, piano, ballet, and singing.
Olivia: Wow! Your a lucky little girl!
Ashley: (looking suddenly sad) Yeah.
Olivia: Did you ever take computer lessons?
Ashley: I was going to start but the tutor stopped coming
Olivia: Did you know Mr. Russo?
Ashley: (nods) Yeah, but we wern't friends like him and Corbin.
Olivia: (nods..then looks surprised and takes the Ashley's arm. She finds a large cut covered with a bandage.)Hey..what happened there?
Ashley: Oh, that's an accident.
Olivia: (looks up at Ashley) What kind of accident?
Ashley: (doesn't say anything)
Olivia: (looks down and sees Ashley's knees and thighs covered with bruises) Ashley..did somebody hurt you?
Ashley: That was an accident too...
(At this point Olivia looks confused and concerned..then Elliot walks up too her)
Elliot: You ready?
Olivia: Ya..
Olivia: (looks back at Ashley) Okay, well I gotta go, maybe we can talk again sometime. I'll look for you here, or under the sofa how about that? (Ashley and Olivia both giggle)
Ashley: I forgot your name...
Olivia: It's Detective Benson..(hands Ashley a card with her number) But you...can call me Olivia!
Ashley: (smiles and takes the card)
Olivia: I'll see you later! (Puts the table cloth back down and walks away)

[Munch and Fin go to a little girl's school after she was murdered to ask her classmates some questions..Munch is introducing himself]
Munch: (Sits down next to a girl in a little chair) Hi there, my name is John Munch!
Hailey: Munch?! Haha. That's a funny name!
Munch: Yeah I know! I guess if I ever have kids I'll have to call them munchkins!

Elliot: What about that autistic kid in Milwaukee last year? Parishioners held him down, they were laying on top of him to cure him.
Olivia: That could explain the ring mark.
[walks around behind Cragen and wraps her arms around him to demonstrate]
Olivia: Someone holds Jamie, he struggles, they hold him tighter.
Capt. Cragen: [a little breathless] Until he can't breathe.
[Olivia removes her arms and walks around in front of him]
Capt. Cragen: Thank you, I enjoyed that.

[Olivia, Elliot, John, and Fin come to arrest 2 'dirty' cops]
Dirty Cop: [Fin tells him to hit the street, but he reaches for his gun] I don't see any shields, just four pieces of crap with guns.
Fin: [points his gun at the cop's head] I got no problem shooting you.
Munch: Twelve jurors or six pallbearers, your choice.

Elliot: [reading a murder victim's archived text messages] These are really deep. "Derek is soooooo cute."

[after Olivia's killed someone..he pretended to shoot the victim so she shot and killed him. Turned out the perp's gun was empty, no bullets.]
Olivia: I gotta give my statement.
Stabler: I'll take it...
Olivia: YOU leave me alone.

Fin: It's different for black men. They go out, have sex with other men, then come home, have sex with their woman, and pretend they're straight.
[Olivia, Cragen, and Elliot look at him]
Fin: Don't look at me, I just know stuff.

[after Olivia's mother dies]
Munch: Did you talk to Benson?
Elliot: Yeah.
Munch: You know, my brother's a mortician in case she has any questions.
Elliot: You have a brother?

Fin: I told you to leave that mut in the car.
Munch: You know how many dogs die in locked cars?
Fin: You know how many cops shoot their partners and get off on a "Justifiable"?

Fin: I hate talking to kids this age.
Munch: That's because you can't smack them if they give you lip.
Fin: Who says I can't?

Barry Morredock: It's a fact that Aptril causes anxiety and insomnia...
ADA Alex Cabot: I suffer from anxiety and insomnia. I don't go around killing people.

Dr. Heints: I was re-parenting him.
Elliot: Lady I've got four kids, if I ever talked to one of them like that... I'd arrest myself.

Munch: Miss Webber was told to disrobe, put her feet up in stirrups, and try to picture David Hasselhoff on Baywatch

Olivia: Only the rat-squad puts cops on other cops, Elliot, without telling them. I deserve better than that. Especially from you.
Elliot: [pauses] You've been under a lot of stress lately...
Olivia: I've always backed your play.
Elliot: And I did what I had to do. The guy's murdered four people, what's to stop him from coming after you, Olivia?
Olivia: If you can't trust your partner, Elliot, it's time to get a new one.

Defense Attorney: Objection! Your honor, this witness is not qualified to testify on the treatment for hysteria.
Munch: Actually, sir, I am. Up until 1952, hysteria was one of the most commonly diagnosed illnesses among women. The medical treatment was hysterical paroxysm.
Court Reporter: Could the witness spell that?
Munch: O-R-G-A-S-M.

Munch: Will you ever have dinner with me?
M.E. Elizabeth Taylor: Not while I can still feed myself.

Monique Jefferies: Wow, 4.7 million in one year.
Brian Cassidy: That's pretty good for a fledgling charity.
Olivia: Fledgling - I'm impressed.
Brian Cassidy: Yeah, that's right, I'm a real dope, aren't I? You know what I did last night? I looked it up and I memorized it just so I can impress you.

ADA Casey Novak: [Novak goes to a judge's home to get a signature on a search warrant. She finds him playing poker with four other judges] I've had this nightmare before, only I was naked.

[a teenaged friend of Kathleen's is pregnant, and Elliot is trying to find the right time to talk about waiting to have sex - he is helping her practice soccer by kicking balls for her to block from the goal]
Elliot: You didn't come out again, honey.
Kathleen: So?
Elliot: So... one ball can change the game. It's like - it's like life. When I get close to you, you just come on out and cut off my angle, OK? Just try it again. Come on out, come on out.
[he kicks the ball, it goes past her into the goal]
Kathleen: Thanks, that was great advice.
Elliot: Honey, you did great, you did great, it's just that... the players in this game, they know a lotta tricks. Never commit until you know where they're coming from, and even then you just - you gotta be careful. You understand?
Kathleen: Whatever.
Elliot: Good, OK.
[pause]
Elliot: Because they'll be attacking you from every angle.
[pause]
Elliot: Just guard it with your life, sweetie.
Kathleen: Oh, boy.
Elliot: OK. Come on, kick it back.
Kathleen: Dad, I'm a virgin, OK?
[she kicks the ball to him, he stands still and it goes by him]
Elliot: OK.

Olivia: You've got to be kidding me.
Elliot: Wesley, what is this thing with you, water, and women?
Wesley: I'm just doing my job.(so your job is to be a necrophiliac sicko?!)
Olivia: I mean, hot showers I get, but ice baths?

[Olivia, and Elliot go to & search the suspect's apartment. The suspect and his wife are prime suspects because they were going to adopt Brianna's baby when they found out she was planning on keeping it, they could have retaliated in that way. Because they had been trying for a baby for 10 years. Benson finds a tray with 4 or 5 types of drugs. And then asks the wife about them because she works down the hall]
Benson: Does your husband ever bring his work home with him?
Mrs. Wolcott: No..
Benson: No? Then what are these? [holds them up]
Mrs. Wolcott: I don't know...
Casey Novak: Looks like pharmasuticals to me. It's in the warrant, bag it.
Benson: Who the hell are you?
Stabler: That's our new ADA Casey Novak. Olivia Benson. Olivia this is Casey Novak
Benson: Hello.
Casey: Hi.
Casey: (turns to Stabler) Do I know you?
Stabler: Yeah, shortstop, cop's team.
Casey: Oh Right..Didn't recognize you when you wern't covered in my dust.
Stabler: That's very good... what are you doing here?
Casey: This is my case.
Benson: It's not your job, we're the detectives...
Casey: And I'm very hands on, I like to see my cases from beginning to end.
Stabler: Well, things are being handled just fine here
Casey: Great, tell you what, I'll take a quick sweep and we'll go to the crime scene together.
Benson: It's already been processed (looks at Casey like DUH!?!)
Casey: Not by me...

[Benson & Stabler go to the medical examiner's office to see what went on with the women that was killed right have she gave birth. Her new born baby was found in the sewer.]
ME Warner: She couldn't fight back. She was injected with a powerful drug known as Versed. A seditive that paralyzes.
Benson: But doesn't knock you out. Brianna would have felt everything that was going on but couldn't lift a finger to resist.
Stabler: Wait a minute. How can you go into labour if your paralyzed?
ME Warner: Patosin. Causes the cirvix to dialate
Benson: Which pregnant women produce naturally...
ME Warner: But I found a synthetic form in the anal cavity. I'd say your perp incapacitated her with the versed, and then gave her the Patosin Sapository to induce labor.
Stabler: And ripped the baby right out of her.

(Discussing previous victim Molly with Dr. Newlands.)
Elliot Stabler:You know what her biggest fear was before you? Starting the first grade

Casey Novak: Got a minute?
Arthur Branch: When you save a little girl's life, you get two. Have a seat.
Casey Novak: I can't do this.
Arthur Branch: Sure you can. Just bend your knees and let gravity take over.

[Casey was doing her first case in SVU. She was trying to get the detectives to change their way of investigating the case. And they didn't like it one bit, especially Olivia. Casey brought a 6 year old girl who was raped in for a lineup and made her histerically upset. This was the last straw for Olivia. She went to give Casey a piece of her mind.]

Olivia (walking in..but doesn't see Casey's face): Don't you think you hurt that little girl! It's not like she hasn't been traumatized already!!
Casey (turned to Olivia with tears in her eyes): I'm sorry okay? (long pause) I can't do this...
Olivia: No one thinks they can do this at first
Casey: I wanted straight homicide you know? All the glory. All dead victims.
Olivia: Lesson number one...nobody can handle it with children.
Casey (has a 'help me' look): There's all this sickness and perversion! I mean...what do you say to your boyfriend when you go home at night?
Olivia (cutting her off): I, actually don't have one.
Casey: Because of the job?
Olivia: Well, I try to date, and things great until they ask me what I do.
Casey: Not exactly dinner conversation is it?...
Olivia: (nods) The ones who don't pull away right away...lean in way to far and want to know all the sick & twisted details. Either way its always a last date...
Casey: It must be easier for the male detectives...
Olivia: Well lets see. Fin, doesn't talk about his love life at work. Elliot doesn't talk about work at home. And...and Munch has just given up.
Casey: Then why do you guys do it?
Olivia: (sighs) Because somebody has too. Goodnight.

Dr. George Huang: He released Hillary, I'd say he let's them go when he gets bored.
John Munch: So we've got half a dozen women who would love to make this guy a falsetto.

Dr. Dudayev: You ask me to beat you and I do, have I commited a crime? Someone wants me to exercise their testicles or penis. It's the same thing.
John Munch: Is this one of your volunteers?
Dr. Dudayev: Never seen him, but I'd be happy to take a referal.

John Munch: You're an allergist!
Dr. Amos Dudayev: I'm still a doctor.
Fin Tutuola: That doesn't give you a license to relieve men of their peckers.

Lionel Granger: Ready to talk plea?
Casey Novak: Not on your life!
Lionel Granger: You don't have anything.
Casey Novak: I have the spontaneous admission in the apartment. Juliet said,and I quote, "I did it." What more do I need?

[A lawyer accuses Olivia of murdering a kidnapper, rapist & murderer because she was found in his apartment with the dead body alone just as the rest of the SVU squad got there. Casey was talking about Olivia's defense in Casey's office. After Casey left, Olivia & Elliot had a kind of cute convo]

Olivia: (sighs) She didn't even ask me if I did it.
Elliot: She can't.
Olivia: You didn't ask me either...
Elliot: (walking out) I know you didn't - you would've shot the bastard
--Olivia smiles--

[This reminds me of how my aunts talk to me when I'm about to give up. It shows the courage, but also the pain Olivia has inside her.]

Cragen: What are you doing?
Olivia: Look I can't do this anymore. The only reason I'm standing here is because my mother let herself get raped.
Cragen: Let herself? Since when do you blame the victim?
Olivia: My mother was drunk. So was Hilary. And that's why I didn't believe her.
Cragen: Fine! Quit. QUIT! Throw away the good you've done and the good you'll do, over one mistake.
--Olivia sighs, throws everything back into her locker, collects the pictures, and looks at Stabler--
Olivia: Let's go
Elliot: Where?
Olivia: To find out which one of the victims killed our rapist...

Munch (about Mr. Gorman): He could've been the member of some cult. In ancient Rome, priests of the goddess Cybele would castrate themselves to achieve divine status.
Fin: How'd you know that?
Munch: The Internet.

Olivia Benson: Maybe Mr. Gorman didn't want to be a man anymore.
Elliot Benson: You really think he wanted his Johnson hacked off?

[Olivia is talking to Elliot asking what is going on. And she finds out something sorta disturbing...]

Police Officer (to Elliot): Still haven't found the package
Olivia (looking confused): What package?
Elliot: Uhh Mr.Gormans. His penis & testicles where cut off. And there still missing.

[Fin goes to see Munch after he got shot]

Fin: So where exactly did you get shot?
Munch: In the ass..you wanna kiss it and make it better?
Fin: If your not nice to me you won't get the shake I smuggled in for you
Munch: Fig? You got this?
Fin: Of course
Munch: Thanks bud
Fin: Thank YOU for not letting me break in another partner

Fin: Who do we go to when WE get raped?

(Scene opens with Benson picking out a tomato at a corner grocery store)

Grocer: Tomatoes, two for 50 cents — special.
Benson:(handing him the tomato to put in a bag) Just one.
Grocer: (Annoyed that Benson isn't taking him up on the deal Four for a dollar! (grabs the additional items in her arms)
Benson: I only need one.
Grocer: Pity. (hands Benson the bag of groceries)
Benson: (hands him some cash) Tragic. (smiles at him and walks off)

[Olivia & Elliot are sitting on a bench in the hospital hallways. They are talking about the situation that just happened when Gitano had the gun to Elliot's head and told Olivia if she shot, Gitano would kill him. But a sniper beat her too it. Its from the episode 'Fault'. They did such a good job..I cried..]

[Olivia sighs, and sits down beside Elliot. There is a big pause and then he starts..]

Elliot: If that sniper hadn't have beaten you to it, I know you would've taken that shot Olivia
Olivia: (Looking at him surprised) No I wouldn't have. Did you really expect me too? Did you really expect me to cause your death? What about your kids?
Elliot: I don't know..I just couldn't get that little boy out of my head.
Olivia: What about me?
Elliot: Look, we both chose each other over the job, never let that happen again. Otherwise...we can't be partners.
Olivia: (looks very surprised again, starting to cry) I can't believe your saying this.
Elliot: You and this job are about the only things I have anymore. I don't wanna wreck that. Goodnight Liv.
[Elliot walks away and Olivia starts to cry]

Elliot: Eight stories up, eight down.
Cassidy: (grabs one of the pictures) Looks like she was shot out of cannon.
Cragen: Guy on steroids?
Munch: No, the Yankees are on a road trip.
Elliot:(standing up) Yeah, they're down in Baltimore, kickin' a little Oriole ass.
Olivia: How about plain old testosterone-driven rage?
Monique: Her boyfriend?
Munch: Or girl. (talking to Jeffries)You could toss 100 pounds without breaking a sweat.
Monique: Toss you, you skinny-ass geek.
Munch: See? The rage?

Elliot: Excuse us, one second, will you?
(takes Benson's arm and leads her out of the office)Detective Benson... why don't you go down, talk to Carmichael at the D.A.'s office, and let's see if we can get that O.B.B. started, okay?
(Shot of Benson and Stabler in the hall, Benson looks frustrated)
Elliot: You want me to bust him in the grill?
Olivia: Hmm.
Elliot: We're not getting anywhere in there.
Olivia: It's not we — it's me.
Elliot: What's that mean?
Olivia: The pompous jerk will never condescend to deal with a woman — you go in there.
Elliot: We good?
Olivia: We're good.

Olivia:(hanging up the phone) Thank you.(To Elliot) Her credit card shows a regular series of expensive dinners for the last year. The last one at “Il Posto Vecchio” for $372.
Elliot: Not cheap. (hands Benson her hot dog)
Olivia: Nope. Ah, grazie.

Elliot: Why would she confide in you?
Dallas Warner: 'Cause I'm a good listener.
Olivia: When you want to get into somebody's pants.
Dallas Warner: If you want to get snotty, Detective, I'll call my lawyer and you can forget about mutual cooperation.
Olivia: Then I'll call your lawyer and ask him if you killed Gretchen.
Dallas Warner: And why would I have done that?
Olivia: To keep her from blabbing to your wife?

(Cut to Cassidy talking to Benson and Munch in the squad room)
Cassidy: Did you know that necrophilia is not only with dead people?
Olivia: (looks at Munch) Do you see what you started?
(shakes her head and pours herself a cup of coffee)
Cassidy:No, I got it off the Net. Supposedly some famous actor out in Hollywood, hires hookers to lie in an ice bath —waits 'till they turn blue with the cold before diving in.
Munch: (patting Cassidy on the back) Let's move on. “Compulsive onanism.”
(shot of Jeffries shaking her head and Stabler looking very amused)
Cassidy: (looks at Benson) “Onanism.”(chuckles)
(Benson looks at Stabler and laughs)

[Elliot & Olivia just went and told a blind woman that her attacker (who made her blind) is dead. Olivia had just joined SVU and is very emotional over everything. She comes out from around the corner wiping her eyes with a tissue.]

Elliot: Remember that Tom Hanks movie where he coached the girls team? There's no crying in baseball. Maybe I should talk to Cragen...
Olivia (Getting into the car ignoring his comment): Look, that woman is incapable of killing that pig! Lets go.

[Discussing how Olivia just reemed out the suspect's wife. Elliot is a bit angry with her because now the wife won't be coopertive. Since she has just joined SVU, Elliot is trying to help her but she is pretty stubborn...]
Elliot: Now she won't talk at all!
Olivia: She LIED to a police officer!
Elliot: Cragen isn't going to be too happy with this..
Olivia (getting into the car): Well then whatever he'll take me off this case!
Elliot (getting into the car): Oh no, you don't want him to do that.
Olivia: Why not?
Elliot: Right now he doesn't think your ready for this squad.
Olivia: I'm a good cop, Elliot.
Elliot: I know.

Munch: From the Greek, Cassidy. "Necro" - "death", "philia" - "love of." You try it
Cassidy: Necrophilia
Munch: Again
Cassidy: Necrophilia
Munch: Or, "Egyptian Love", according to Henry Miller. Necrophilia
Cassidy: Necrophilia
Munch: Good man.

Elliot: She must have had fun naming her computer files. (Flips open a file) This is “Penis dot Quotes.” You want to read it or should I?
(tries to hand it to Benson)
Benson (flipping through a pile of old books): Knock yourself out.
Elliot: (takes a look at the contents of the file and places it on Benson's desk) No, that's yours.
(Benson grabs the folder and opens it up)
Cragen: Anything?
Elliot: No.
Benson (reading from the file): Okay, “Biology of the Amazons,” by Gretchen Quinn. “There's a tiny catfish feared more than the piranha. It's called a...(flips the page)
Cragen: “Candiru.”
(Benson looks up, surprised that Cragen knew the answer)
Elliot: Say what?
Cragen: This is beautiful. Tell him.
Benson (reading): “It will swim right into a man's penis and lodge itself there by erecting sharp spines — (looks at Elliot)” Ow.
Elliot: “Erecting sharp spines — ” that's a fish with a sense of irony. How'd you know that? (flipping through an old book)
Cragen: In the jungle they always taught us, “Don't hold your nose, hold your stones.”
(both Benson & Elliot giggle)

Piczo
