Quotes

(ADA Novak to Detectives Benson and Stabler after she found out Alex Cabot is alive, in WP, and they knew it)
ADA Novak: We work together, you should have trusted me (edit)
Alex Cabot: For years I've convinced victims to face their attackers, now it's time for me to step up. (edit)
Roger Kressler: You have absolutely no idea who shot you, do you?
Alex Cabot: Oh, I have an idea. It's the kind of man that likes to rape a woman just to get her to talk. (edit)
Roger Kressler: That sounds like quite an ordeal. I think we're all very moved by your experience.
Alex Cabot: Do you have a question? (edit)
Olivia Benson: Alex...
Elliot Stabler: You didn't have to come back.
Alex Cabot: I know. But who else was going to get you out of trouble? (edit)

Trivia

add »
Former assistant district attorney Alexandra Cabot returns to New York. During the time she was presumed dead, she had been living in Wisconsin under the name Emily. (edit)
Nitpick: Olivia Benson needs to have what the child says to her in Spanish translated to her, but in earlier episodes (such as Wanderlust), she had no trouble understanding Spanish. (edit)
Benson and Stabler enter a building looking for Liam Connors. They spot him and he runs from the building. Elliott and Olivia run to the front door, with Olivia holstering her gun as she is running through the door. The next shot is outside the building with Olivia and Elliott running through the door, Olivia clearly has her gun is her hand and she holsters it again when getting into the car. (edit)
The picture of Alex Cabot shown when they match the bullet to the gun that "killed" her in the beginning of the episode shows her with long hair. It is evident that this is a recent picture of Stephanie March and is a continuity issue. Never before this episode did Cabot have long hair as she does and the picture in the police database would reflect so. (edit)

Allusions

Patty Kerner: Oh, my God, the part where she's having sex with the gardener and the husband comes in?

A quick reference to the hit show Desperate Housewives. The woman describes a scene that occurred in one of the early episodes. (edit)
