Quotes

Carisi: Your Honor, two more witnesses have come forward. The prosecution intends to call Maggie Quigley... [the court doors open and Rollins leads Rosamie and Eddie in] ...and Rosamie Klein.

John Buchanan: Your Honor, this is the first we're hearing of these witnesses. I need time to prepare. I request an adjournment for the day.

Judge Felicia Catano: So granted.

John Buchanan: [quietly to Carisi] Where the hell'd you pull these two out of?

Carisi: The back of your client's van. My guess, he's not gonna want to hear their testimony in open court. [joining Benson] You see O'Toole's face? He's gonna fold.

Benson: Make it hurt.

Rollins: Rosamie, how are you?

Rosamie Klein: Better when I heard O'Toole go to prison.

Sergeant Hasim Khaldun: Rape three, three counts. He'll do 15 years.

Rosamie Klein: Good.

Sergeant Khaldun: You and Eddie; things okay?

Rosamie Klein: Yeah. After you talked to Eddie, before I agreed to testify, he and I talked a long time. He said he was so sad what I had to go through, and how much he loved me. We cried together. It's better now. Even better than before. I don't have to keep secrets from him anymore, so... thank you.

Background Information and Notes

• This is the 200th episode for Rollins and the 450th episode for Fin.
• Benson mentions working on a joint task force with Homeland Security and having a great contact there. She may be referring to Alexandra Eames, who was seen working on that task force in the episodes "Acceptable Loss" and "Poisoned Motive".
• Sergeant Hasim Khaldun's back story of passing for black after 9/11 and having a Jewish mother and a Middle Eastern father come from actor Ari'el Stachel's personal background.
• In the state of New York if a person commits the crime of Forcible Touching (such as the firefighter being interrogated) and has been previously convicted of Forcible Touching or Sexual Abuse in the Third Degree or Sexual Abuse in the Second Degree two or more times within the previous ten years they are also charged with Persistent Sexual Abuse, a class E felony which carries a penalty of either five years probation, or if incarceration is deemed appropriate, a minimum of one year in prison and a maximum of four years.
• The plot is reminiscent of the case of Isaac Baichu, an immigration screening officer sentenced to four years for one case of coerced oral sex.
