Dann Florek: Captain Donald 'Don' Cragen

Quotes 

• Det. John Munch : [about Thomas Mathers' alibi]  A visit with Mom, an evening of rape. What would Freud say?

  Donald Cragen : I'd rather ask Mrs. Mathers. Find out how long Tommy Boy visited.

• Donald Cragen : [after a mentally ill woman causes a scene in the squad room]  What the hell's going on?

  Detective Olivia Benson : Could be victim number four.

• Detective Olivia Benson : [after it's revealed that Miranda has been discharged from the hospital]  She should've been kept in the hospital.

  Dr. Rebecca Hendrix : We can't force her. She's allowed to check herself out unless a court compels her to stay.

  Detective Olivia Benson : This is exactly the problem with the mental health profession. You medicate them just enough so you can cut them loose and then nobody monitors them. They go off their meds and the next thing you know, they either become a victim of a crime or they commit one. Either way, we have to clean up your mess.

  Dr. Rebecca Hendrix : So what, we lock them up to make your life easier? Is that your solution, Olivia?

  Detective Olivia Benson : If it keeps them safe, yes.

  Dr. Rebecca Hendrix : I left the job because I got sick of locking them up. I'd rather treat the criminals and help the victims.

  Detective Olivia Benson : You think Miranda's being helped right now on the street?

  Donald Cragen : I think we all can agree the answer to that is no.
