- A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael: Police found the other two girls. Killed the same way as Anneke Ullman.
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: Know who they were?
- A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael: Two runaways from Indiana.
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: We'll use it Peter Williams' sentencing.
- A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael: What about Laura Kendrick?
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: Parole board will hear about it twenty-five years from now.
- A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael: How do you wash it off, Jack?
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: I wish I knew.
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: [to Laura Kendrick] So you lured your little sister to his apartment, you drugged her, you helped Mr. Williams undress her...
- Laura Kendrick: I had to.
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: And you had sex with her while she was unconscious while Mr. Williams took pictures. How did you feel when you did that?
- Laura Kendrick: I wanted to make Peter happy.
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: That made Peter happy. How did it make you feel? Excited?
- Laura Kendrick: Yes. So what?
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: And when you watched Mr. Williams brutally rape and brutally sodomize your little sister, did you feel excited?
- Laura Kendrick: Yes.
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: And were you excited when you helped him dispose of Janey's body and Miss Ullman, and you both raped the other girls?
- Laura Kendrick: He said he would marry me, he would buy me a two-karat ring from Tiffany's and he would love me and take care of me for the rest of my life.
- Judge Pamela Jensen: That's it. Counsel, step up. Mr. McCoy, what the hell kind of deal did you make with this woman?
- Detective Lennie Briscoe: I guess there's no point in asking...
- Dr. Elizabeth Rodgers: Indication of brutal sexual penetration both vaginally and anally. Bad news, no semen.
- Detective Ed Green: Condom?
- Dr. Elizabeth Rodgers: Douche.
- Detective Ed Green: No DNA.
- Dr. Elizabeth Rodgers: I didn't say that. This girl fought back. Got his flesh under her fingernails. I sent it for DNA typing.
- Detective Lennie Briscoe: So he douched them but he forgot to clean under their nails?
- Dr. Elizabeth Rodgers: No, he didn't forget. He just didn't get it all.
- A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael: [about Laura Kendrick] Our prime witness against Williams might be as big a sociopath as he is.
- Dr. Emil Skoda: [after talking to Laura] Classic case. Predator zeroes in on a vulnerable woman, twists her around 'till she doesn't know which end's up.
- A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael: She knew him for six weeks. How vulnerable was she?
- Dr. Emil Skoda: Nothing to do with that. Given the right combination of his skill and her self-esteem problems, he could do it in six days.
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: Did she explain the scratches on her thigh?
- Dr. Emil Skoda: Every time I asked her about details, she got too emotional to answer.
- A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael: So we don't know any more than we did.
- Dr. Emil Skoda: Whatever her level of involvement, she was abused and manipulated into participating.
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: She didn't try to stop him.
- Dr. Emil Skoda: She was afraid.
- A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael: She didn't run. She didn't call the police.
- Dr. Emil Skoda: She couldn't. Psychologically, she was in thrall to him and suspended her judgment.
- A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael: Abused or not, she was there. It's her own sister, for God's sakes. We can't let her off the hook.
- Dr. Emil Skoda: Like Abbie says, her own sister. She'd have to be a monster. I saw no sign of it. Want me to talk to her again after she calms down?
- A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael: Peter Williams is back on the street in twelve hours.
- Dr. Emil Skoda: Sounds to me like you have no choice.
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: He's a rapist. But nobody ever died until after he hooked up with her.
- Adam Schiff: Correlation?
- Dr. Emil Skoda: He might have escalated to murder on his own.
- Adam Schiff: Might have? Who cares? Has the girl lied to you?
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: Not to prove. She forgot this, didn't remember that...
- Adam Schiff: You can't prove she's lying, you have no basis to rescind her deal.
- A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael: If we don't find a basis, in three years she'll be out on the street looking for another soul mate. She's a monster.
- Dr. Emil Skoda: Not necessarily. Could've been a one-shot thing.
- Adam Schiff: You ever give a straight answer? Might as well consult a phrenologist. Bottom-line it.
- A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael: Bottom line it, hell. Our backs are to the wall. Help us find a way out.
- Adam Schiff: Another county heard from.
- Executive A.D.A. Jack McCoy: We can't convict him without her.
- Adam Schiff: Then stick to the deal, no matter how much it turns your stomach. And mine.
- Laura Kendrick: [to Detective Green] Were you here when the police searched this place?
- Detective Ed Green: Yeah, why?
- Laura Kendrick: Peter gave me this really pretty pair of garnet earrings. They matched this bracelet. I think I left them here. Did you guys find them? I'd like them back.
- A.D.A. Abbie Carmichael: [after finding photographs involving Laura Kendrick] You can see what an unwilling participant Laura Kendrick was. Posing next to her naked, drugged-out sister, smiling at the camera, putting her hand where it doesn't belong, smiling at the camera. Smiling, smiling, smiling... I don't see a gun to her head.
