Mariska Hargitay: Captain Olivia Benson

Quotes 

• Sergeant Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola : Was Carisi this grumpy when he was a detective?

  Captain Olivia Benson : Yes.

• Sergeant Odafin 'Fin' Tutuola : [about Connie Parish]  Mommy was pissed.

  Captain Olivia Benson : Well, that's not anger, Fin. That's jealousy.

• Connie Parish : Well, congratulations, Captain. You've managed to turn my son against me. You call this police work?

  Captain Olivia Benson : You just don't get it, do you? Your son's a rapist.

  Connie Parish : Okay. I don't want to keep hearing that. I raised a good boy.

  Captain Olivia Benson : No, you raised a son who is still a little boy who is afraid of displeasing you, so he does everything that you tell him to do. You've crippled him and that is not parenting.

  Connie Parish : Parenting? I had no parenting. I parented myself. That house you went to, that was my father's real child, and I swore I would never let that happen to my son. I'm a tough woman and I'm a tough mother because I want what's best for Martin because my career wasn't the most important thing in my life. He was. He needed me.

  Captain Olivia Benson : Maybe when he was little, but you never let him grow up.

  Connie Parish : He wasn't ready.

  Captain Olivia Benson : Is that what you tell yourself? No, Connie, you see, you needed him and you used him.

  Connie Parish : He loves me and I love him.

  Captain Olivia Benson : That's not love. That's not mothering. That's narcissism.
