Bell: I'm gonna need you to tell me where those drugs really came from.
Stabler: My brother. He may have a problem.
Bell: I'm sorry to hear that. You want to know if he's using or dealing before you confront him?
Stabler: No. I wanna take care of business first and then confront my brother in my own time and my own way.
Bell: No judgment here, but one thing I learned from my time in Narcotics is that an addict doesn't need an excuse to use but that doesn't mean they won't take one.
