(Benson is upset that Stabler is siding with Hendrix' gut instinct and not her and the physical evidence.)
Olivia Benson: And I can't believe that you are gonna take a shrink's opinion over actual facts!
Rebecca Hendrix: (looks offended) Bye. edit »
Elliot Stabler: What's your problem? She's a cop -- that's all I need to know.
Olivia Benson: No, Elliot. She didn't think that being a cop was good enough so she quit.
Elliot Stabler: Is that what this is about, some inferiority complex?
Olivia Benson: You know, I get that you are on the rebound and everything, but if you could keep it out of work that'd be great. edit »
Elliot Stabler: Colleen wasn't raped until two o'clock in the morning. Depending on how long he stayed in Queens, he had plenty of time to get back into the city.
John Munch: Visit with mom, evening of rape, what would Freud say? edit »
Olivia Benson: As best I can tell, she was raped by terrorists. edit »
Dr. Rebecca Hendrix: Ray Ray is not a rapist. His D.N.A. is in the system for filing hundreds of false reports about his neighbor trying to murder his cat. edit »

In the episode, people keep referring to the sketch of the perpetrator as looking like "The Unabomber". This is a reference to the nickname given toTed Kaczynski, a Harvard graduate and doctor of mathematics who retreated to the life of a hermit and admitted to planning and carrying out explosions that killed three people and injured 23 others between 1978 and 1995. edit »
