I Deserve Some Loving Too (2020)

Jeremy Bobb: ICE Agent Rory O'Toole

Quotes 

• John Buchanan : [to Carisi]  My client had a long, dark night of the soul to think about this.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Well, there's not a whole lot to think about. It's all over but the hard time, O'Toole.

  John Buchanan : Back up. Hold on a second.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : No. I'm done waiting. Tomorrow, Rosamie and Maggie are gonna take the stand, but before they do, we're gonna bump the charges from Rape Three to Rape One, and when they're done testifying, the jury and your client will be in tears.

  John Buchanan : Let's show a little compassion for a fellow officer, Counselor.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Oh, the same compassion that he showed his victims?

  ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : I was doing my job. I've been serving my country on the front lines of a foreign invasion for 20 years.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Serving your country? By dipping your wick?

  ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : It was a test. It's the only way to know if they really love their husbands.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Okay, okay. Now, you told me before that if they really loved their husbands, they wouldn't sleep with you.

  ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : That's right.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : But when they refused you, you threw 'em in jail, and if they did sleep with you, you gave 'em their green card. Now, you can lie to yourself all you want, but you raped these women.

  ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : No, absolutely not. I was just doing what I had to do to protect our borders.

  John Buchanan : Rory, he understands...

  ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : He doesn't understand it. I'm holding the line between more mouths to feed, more people on Medicaid, in our public schools and our hospitals, okay? Taking our jobs. These people are bleeding the system dry and I stop that from happening.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : All right, stop. Not one more word from you. What you did to these women how many of them have had to live with your violation in secret, in fear? You took advantage of them when they were at their most helpless, their most vulnerable, and you used the power of your government position to force them to demean themselves. They came here hoping for the American dream, and you made their lives a nightmare.

  [to Buchanan] 

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : I'm sick of your client, Counselor. You want to talk deal? He needs to shut his mouth and nod yes.

• John Buchanan : I want to give you an early out here. My client is a respected USCIS investigator. His job is to uncover scams for green cards, which is what he did. This was a fake marriage.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Nice try. O'Toole was extorting sex in exchange for a green card.

  ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : Please listen to the tape. Everything I said, it was a test.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : You had a mattress in the back seat.

  ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : Well, it has to look real. That's part of the setup.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : The setup? We found traces of your DNA on the mattress.

  ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : It's my mattress.

  John Buchanan : Did you find any of your supposed victims' DNA? I didn't think so. He wasn't going to sexually assault your UC; he was trying to find out how far she would go.

  ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : It's like with a narc cop, right? You buy the drugs, and then you make the bust.

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Okay, so you were gonna sleep with her?

  John Buchanan : No! And you don't know that because your team stepped in before Mr. O'Toole had the chance to bust her.

  ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : If the wife is willing to cross the line to infidelity for a green card, how real can the love be?

  Dominick Carisi Jr. : Okay, none of this is DHS protocol, and I don't see any jurors buying it for a second.

  John Buchanan : You need 12. I only need one.

• Odafin Tutuola : NYPD. Put your hands on the wheel.

  Katriona Tamin : Miss, you're not in any trouble. Come with me.

  ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : I'm a federal officer. I'm on the job.

  Odafin Tutuola : Not anymore, you're not.

  Olivia Benson : Rory O'Toole, you're under arrest for sexual extortion.

• Sergeant Hasim Khaldun : We go out to uh, dinner. Nightclubs.

  ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : As an observant Muslim, though, you don't drink.

  Sergeant Hasim Khaldun : No. No, I don't.

  ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : Does your wife?

  Sergeant Hasim Khaldun : Yes. She loves her martinis.

  ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : And how do you feel about that?

  Sergeant Hasim Khaldun : I fell in love with Mandy as she is. I don't want or expect her to change. That's the beauty of America. Everyone is free to be who they are. If I get my green card, inshallah, I'll be free, too.

• ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : You said Special Victims. So this is sexual in nature?

  Olivia Benson : Well, I can't comment on the investigation.

  Odafin Tutuola : What does Duane do here?

  ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : Duane works for me. We're investigators like you. We vet marriages, make sure they're not green-card romances. Please, have a seat.

  Odafin Tutuola : Well, this is a tough job, but between us, he may not be right for it.

  ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : It's that bad, huh? Well, what do you need from me?

  Olivia Benson : We need access to his computers, his search history, and to make sure he didn't upload any photo files.

  ICE Agent Rory O'Toole : For something like that, I'd have to go through legal, HR, the union.

  Olivia Benson : My D.A. wanted to subpoena you, and I told him the last thing that your bosses need is bad publicity.

  Odafin Tutuola : We go to court, this office becomes a punchline.

  Olivia Benson : Look, you're an investigator. How about you check his search history and if you think that there's nothing there, we walk away.
