Quotes 

• Donald Cragen : If you don't know there's a trampoline in the room, you're not going to dust the ceiling for fingerprints.

• Donald Cragen : Dad agree to the gonorrhea test?

  Olivia Benson : He told me to shove it, but under the circumstances, I might've said the same thing.

• Olivia Benson : [When the Kurtzes want to take Rebecca off life support]  They haven't done the rape exam yet.

  Donald Cragen : Rebecca's parents want to donate her organs. They wait much longer, they won't be usable.

  Alexandra Cabot : Can't they do the exam post-mortem?

  Donald Cragen : M.E. says once there's no blood flow, tissue deteriorates and we could lose our evidence.

  Alexandra Cabot : She tested positive for gonorrhea. Isn't that enough to prove our case?

  Elliot Stabler : Not if we want to prove that she was also raped.

  Donald Cragen : We need every bit of evidence we can get. Alex, this bastard should die in his cell.

• Alexandra Cabot : [about Joey Field]  It's pretty convenient having a father who can double as your attorney.

  Donald Cragen : Looks like Joey would rather have somebody else.

  Alexandra Cabot : Malcolm Field's record is good, but I don't think even he can get his son out of this.

• Dr. George Huang : [about Missy]  Her early childhood was severely traumatic. Without immediate intensive therapy, no way she could form healthy attachments. By the time the Kurtzs adopted her, it was too late.

  Donald Cragen : So Missy's mad, not bad and Daddy takes the rap.
