Joe Krolinsky: Please, I have a family --
Jack McCoy: I feel sorry for them. (edit)
Anita van Buren: There's people like him in every neighborhood. Could be the Little League coach, your kid's favorite teacher . . . it's too bad they don't glow in the dark. (edit)
Father Navarro: When Father Krolinsky was pronounced cured, he was sent to another parish.
Jack McCoy: How many times was he pronounced cured? (edit)
Adam Schiff: Sounds like Krolinsky's been behaving himself all these years.
Jack McCoy: It just means he hasn't been caught. I've prosecuted pedophiles, Adam. They defy rehabilitation. (edit)
Mike Logan: He was a big deal, our parents loved him. What are kids gonna do against a parish priest? (edit)

Allusions

This episode appears ripped from the headlines of the James Porter case in Boston. Porter was accused of molesting over 200 boys and girls while he was a priest. The archdiocese responded by denying the victims' claims of abuse or transferring Porter to other parishes. Porter eventually left the priesthood and got married. He was later convicted for molesting a teenage girl who baby-sat his children. (edit)
