Mariska Hargitay: Detective Olivia Benson

Quotes 

• Olivia Benson : If Missy lied about being raped, who do you think really planned these murders?

• Peter Kurtz : [to Olivia]  Look, Detective, what aren't you telling me?

  Olivia Benson : There's no easy way to say this. Rebecca's been sexually abused.

  Peter Kurtz : What?

  Olivia Benson : We're still investigating, but the doctor said that she'd tested positive for gonorrhea.

  Peter Kurtz : Oh, God. How could this be happening?

  Olivia Benson : In these kinds of cases, it's typically somebody who knew the victim.

  Peter Kurtz : Well, then it must have been at school. I mean, she's there most of the day.

  Olivia Benson : I understand that you're her primary caregiver?

  Peter Kurtz : Yeah, I... You're accusing me of hurting Rebecca?

  Olivia Benson : Sir, we're not accusing anyone.

  Peter Kurtz : Yes, you are. You think I raped my daughter.

  Olivia Benson : Mr. Kurtz. It's my job to rule everyone out. Now, you'd really help us out if you'd consent to a gonorrhea test.

  Peter Kurtz : You go to hell.

  [walks away] 

• 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.

• Peter Kurtz : [to Stabler and Benson]  You got your restraining order. Why don't you leave us alone?

  Olivia Benson : Mr. Kurtz, the last thing that we want to do is inflict any more pain on your family.

  Elliot Stabler : We need to find out what happened to Rebecca.

  Raquel Kurtz : Do you have children, Detectives?

  Elliot Stabler : I have four.

  Raquel Kurtz : Then how can you put us through this?

  Elliot Stabler : If one of my children were sexually abused, I'd want to know who did it.

• 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.

• Peter Kurtz : [after the Kurtzes watch a video of Missy and Joey sexually assaulting Rebecca]  Why? We loved that girl from the moment she came into our home!

  [to Olivia] 

  Peter Kurtz : That bastard gave them both gonorrhea?

  Olivia Benson : No, Mr. Kurtz, he didn't. Joey never had it.

  Raquel Kurtz : My God. Missy gave it to Rebecca?

  [sobs] 

  Raquel Kurtz : Oh, my God! Oh, my God! How didn't we see?

  Olivia Benson : Because Missy made sure that you wouldn't.
