Stabler: Doc says you're recovering well?
Bell: He's really impressed with himself, so I take that as a good sign.

IAB: Can you tell me what Detective Stabler did that night?
Jet: He was trying to take out a shooter. If he hadn't, I would have.

Elliot, it's me. I heard what happened. I take that back, I'll wait for you to tell me what happened. I'm there for you.

Benson

Stabler: You didn't tell me this. Why?
Randall: Because then I'd have to tell you why.
Stabler: Okay. So tell me now.
Randall: You're supposed to be some kind of super cop, little brother. You figure it out.
Stabler: Okay, so you're gonna be an ass.
Randall: Oh look, Detective Stabler solved a case. I'm an ass.

Let me tell you something. Us Stablers tend to shut other people out when we don't know how to handle things.

Stabler

Kiki: Did Detective Stabler leave because of me?
Jet: You're not that scary.

I used to pray my dad would die. Is it bad that I'm happy he's dead? Does that make me a bad person?

Lucas

Kiki: This is a nightmare!
Lucas: I wouldn't mind being someone else.

Sit. Sit down. I have to ask you a question. Have you been loyal?

Carlo

These guys are expendable. One dies, another takes over.

Bashir

Jet: One is a resident at Brookside Hospital. The other is a cash-and-gash on the East Side.
Stabler: What is a cash-and-gash?
Jet: That's just my name for it. It's a plastic surgeon who works on the cheap.

Bashir: According to these, Jamal made several trips to and from Afghanistan in the last six weeks.
Stacy: He went back?
Stabler: How many times does ar refugee need to escape?
