Law & Order: Special Victims Unit (TV Series)

October Surprise (2013)

Danny Pino: Detective Nick Amaro

Quotes 

• A.D.A. Rafael Barba : [to Amaro]  I am not cutting Munoz a break just because he's my friend.

  Nick Amaro : No, I get that. It's not about friendship. It's about you. You're afraid to go after Munoz because while he stayed in the hood, in el barrio and played man of the people, you went off to Harvard and pretended you were one of the gringuitos.

  A.D.A. Rafael Barba : I know where I come from.

  Nick Amaro : Yeah, so does Munoz and he's playing you, mi socio, and making you feel like a sellout. Un arrepentido.

  A.D.A. Rafael Barba : Thank you so much for the bodega psychoanalysis, detective. Compay? No te equivoque conmigo.

• Nick Amaro : [after Munoz texts a picture of his penis to Rollins]  And this guy wants to be the next mayor of New York.

• Amanda Rollins : [about Lindsay]  So far, four men have filed orders of protection against her for harassment and extortion plus two more O.O.P.S: one from her ex-mother-in-law, and the other's from an ex-shrink who kept getting texts demanding that he come back and "murder her vagina," whatever that means.

  Odafin Tutuola : Means she's a freak.

  Detective Olivia Benson : Okay, so she lied to us, she's changed her story, she's gone back and forth about pressing charges. Maybe Barba's right. Eddie deserves the benefit of the doubt.

  Nick Amaro : Unless we're asking the wrong questions.

  Odafin Tutuola : Here he goes.

• Nick Amaro : Guys like Barba. Too smart for their own good.

  Amanda Rollins : I'm sure he said the same about you.

• Nick Amaro : This clown could be mayor. He opened himself up to blackmail. Right, Eddie had cash. Where'd he get it from, huh? This could be just the tip of the iceberg.

  Amanda Rollins : I think we saw more than just the tip.
