Churlish: The way McGrath tells it, I have 30 days. 3-0.
Benson: To do what?
Churlish: To impress you.
Muncy: Why did you get divorced?
Abby: I thought he'd change. He thought I wouldn't.
Benson: Your brother is way too good at this.
Muncy: He just knows how to code-switch.
Velasco: He's fluent in meathead.
I survived losing my husband. I can survive losing my best friend. But I will not lose this trial.
Zoe
Jenna: Love is messy. Sometimes it means commitment to someone who can't take care of themselves.
Muncy: Yeah, commitment, not sexual assault.
Zoe: I didn't know it was her. I feel so stupid.
Benson: It's called willful blindness. I've had more than my share.
Jenna: I feel bad. I was the one who pushed Zoe to get back on the market. My marriage is pretty boring. I wanted to live vicariously through her.
Benson: Life is a strange mix of beauty and pain and we can't control how it unfolds for the people we love.
Muncy: Captain, I noticed that Velasco's motorcycle isn't parked outside for the third day in a row.
Benson: Great work, detective, but I told you that Velasco is taking a few days off.
Fin: All this says to me is Velasco did his research on this case for his lie.
Benson: That's a lot of homework for a mid-level banger.
He is the textbook definition of an unreliable witness.
Benson
I'd rather die in prison. The second the cell doors close, I won't remember why I was there. That boy will remember everything. Some memories are worse than prison.
Pence
Cop: Hey, sir! I asked you a question. What do you remember?
Pence: I did it. I made love to her and then I killed her. I remember it all.
