Quotes 

• Alexis Sidnana : This is crazy. Those trips to Bangalore, I was with her. We went for my grandmother's 99th birthday. Three weeks, later she died. We went back for the funeral. Why isn't anyone reporting that?

  Amanda Rollins : Because terrorists make better news.

• Amanda Rollins : I used to think pilots were sexy. Silly me.

  Rafael Barba : Let's hope the jury isn't blinded by the uniform.

• Odafin Tutuola : Thank god for flight insurance.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Come on, Fin, don't tell me you canceled your trip.

  Odafin Tutuola : Look, if I have a choice between fishing and living...

  Amanda Rollins : You know, it's bad enough we had to worry about passengers, now co-pilots? I'm with Fin.

  Odafin Tutuola : Plus, this terrorist stuff happens in threes. So until the next two pop off, call me homeboy. I'm staying home.

• Amanda Rollins : Tara told us that she visited you sometime in July.

  Alexis Sidnana : She showed up at my doorstep, unannounced. She said she had some vacation days.

  Amanda Rollins : You didn't believe her?

  Alexis Sidnana : My sister's idea of a day off is flying standby from New York to Paris. Not to see the Eiffel Tower, just to be on a plane.

  Amanda Rollins : So when she showed up...

  Alexis Sidnana : She went right to my guest room, closed the door, and slept. For eighteen hours. I checked on her, that's when I saw the bruises on her neck and wrists.

  Amanda Rollins : What did she say happened?

  Alexis Sidnana : She was mugged. You know, working here, I have seen my share of rapes. Tara had all the signs. I pled with her to go the police. I said I'd go with her.

  Amanda Rollins : What'd she say happened?

  Alexis Sidnana : She cried. She stayed a week, and then she was gone. Just... no goobye, nothing.

• Captain Logan Carter : We had sex. Just like other people who meet at a bar. I'm guilty of cheating on my wife, that's all.

  Roger Kressler : Did Optimum Air tell you she filed a complaint about being raped?

  Amanda Rollins : No, the airline extorted Tara's silence by promising her a promotion.

• Captain Logan Carter : Jeanne Howell? Do you know what I did for her?

  Rafael Barba : We know what you did to her.

  Captain Logan Carter : You want to hear about Jeanne Howell? I can keep you here for hours.

  Amanda Rollins : Luckily, Mrs. Howell is meticulous. She's detail-oriented; probably what makes her a good pilot. She kept evidence of the assault. Some of it ripped. Photos of the physical trauma, and e-mails between the two of you after the rape.

  Rafael Barba : You were a little loose-lipped, Captain.

  Amanda Rollins : Contemporary statements to her friends.

  Roger Kressler : What are you looking for?

  Rafael Barba : The captain pleads guilty to two counts rape two, ten years.

  Captain Logan Carter : Are you crazy?

  Rafael Barba : We could go to trial, on Jeanne Howell's rape. If you're found guilty, you're looking at twenty-five years.

  Roger Kressler : [after a moment of silence, he and Carter share a look]  Draw up your paperwork.

• Amanda Rollins : So, Sandy Sullivan is on the phone. She's a union rep for Optimum Air.

  Olivia Benson : The airline that almost just crashed?

  Amanda Rollins : Yeah. According to Sullivan, the co-pilot is saying she was raped.
