A.D.A. Casey Novak : [questioning Katie on the witness stand during the trial for Alex Parvin:] Katie, did you hear the man who was in the bedroom with your mother say anything besides, 'Come here, baby, you smell good'?
Katie Nicholson : Yes.
A.D.A. Casey Novak : What did he say?
Judge Lena Petrovsky : [after Katie begins to imitate sexual moans and groans] That's enough, Katie.
A.D.A. Casey Novak : Katie, you pointed out Alex Parvin as the one who argued with, and hit, your mother. Is that right?
Katie Nicholson : Yes. He used the wrong word. But, my dad said it's really a bad word for girls.
A.D.A. Casey Novak : How could you tell the difference between Alex's voice and his father's?
Katie Nicholson : Mr. Parvin is even-tempo, large pitch, deep timbre. Alex is fast-tempo, high pitch, medium timbre. I study music. My teacher says singing and talking are alike. I know what I heard.
[Slight pause]
Katie Nicholson : The End.
A.D.A. Casey Novak : [smiles] Thank you.

Katie Nicholson : [Katie's first interview with SVU regarding her mother's attack] They were yelling.
Katie Nicholson : [Katie places her hands over her ears and yells] It was too loud! So I covered my ears!
Katie Nicholson : [Kate takes her hands away from her ears and speaks softly] I hid under my bed. Then it was quiet. I heard footsteps. I went to find Mom. She was bleeding, so I took the phone, even though I'm not allowed to, because it was an emergency. Then Dad came home. He was gone a long time. The End.

Katie Nicholson : 'Everything's going to be alright. We're a family. We're going to stay together no matter what.'
[Slight pause]
Katie Nicholson : The End.
