Bell: You almost made me cry.
Stabler: What if I had?
Bell: I would have had to fire you.

Bell: Alex, if you want even a single shred of leniency, you'd better tell us who we're dealing with.

Wen Shao: I reported my son missing to the cops back home. They wouldn't help. They said he ran away. They knew the truth and they did nothing.
Stabler: I'm not them.
Wen Shao: Then let me out.

Bhau wanted to come to America for school. I told him no. A parent's job is to protect his children. I will not stop.
