Fin: We all make mistakes, and even in the NYPD there is room for redemption.
Velasco: You think Benson sees it that way?

Benson: Can we trust this CO?
Carisi: The guy is a grade-A scumbag with more self-interest than most.
Benson: What are you doing up at this hour?
Fin: You know what they say. If you can't find a good person, be one.
Benson: Okay, but do you have to do it while the rest of us are sleeping?
