Detective Elliot Stabler
- Detective Dani Beck: You're Detective Stabler, right?
- Detective Elliot Stabler: Yeah.
- Detective Dani Beck: Captain said you'd be here. I'm Dani Beck, your new partner.
- Detective Elliot Stabler: Welcome to the world of grey.
- Detective Elliot Stabler: Kathleen. What are you doing here? Is everything all right?
- Kathleen Stabler: I need to talk to you.
- Detective Elliot Stabler: A couple of days ago, you were never gonna speak to me again.
- Kathleen Stabler: [to Stabler] I hate you!
- [storms off]
- Odafin Tutuola: [to Stabler] Everything okay?
- Detective Elliot Stabler: Man, you're lucky you don't have daughters.
- Maia Graves: Janey did that for herself. She's very strong-willed.
- Detective Elliot Stabler: What does that mean? You're the parent.
- Kathy Stabler: [to Stabler] Why haven't you signed the divorce papers? It's been months, Elliot. You won't talk to me, you won't talk to my lawyer, the kids are asking if we're getting back together. I've run out of things to say.
- Detective Elliot Stabler: What do you want?
- Kathy Stabler: An answer.
- Detective Elliot Stabler: I don't know.
- Kathy Stabler: I guess that's an answer.
- Greg Hartley: Janey wanted me to have sex with her.
- Detective Elliot Stabler: And you said, "Fine, baby. Buy yourself some lingerie and practice your sex positions"?
- Donald Cragen: [about Janey] This girl is being pulled apart by an overprotective father and an overly-permissive mother.
- Dr. George Huang: I think Janey knows what she wants. I think we should listen to her.
- Detective Elliot Stabler: Yeah, and let Greg Hartley have what he wants.
- Attorney Walsh: [to Stabler] You have a 17-year-old daughter, don't you?
- Attorney Van Allen: Objection! Detective Stabler's personal life isn't relevant.
- Attorney Walsh: This witness clearly has a personal bias in this case, Your Honor. Why else would he go trawling through New York state digging up dirt on Mr. Hartley?
- Judge Bernard: [to Stabler] Do you have a daughter, Detective?
- Detective Elliot Stabler: I have three daughters and one son and they have nothing to do with this.
- Attorney Walsh: Despite the fact that you're separated from your wife and hardly see your kids?
- Detective Elliot Stabler: Don't you talk about my family.
- Attorney Walsh: Despite the fact you once pulled your 17-year-old daughter's boyfriend and threatened him with violence if he didn't leave her alone?
- Detective Elliot Stabler: That has nothing to do with this.
- Attorney Walsh: It has everything to do with this, Detective. Because it affects your ability to view this case. When you look at Nathan Speer, you see a man, a father like yourself, who is about to lose his daughter. That's why you're going after the man that Janey loves.
- Detective Elliot Stabler: No! I'm going after a pedophile.
