Dean Winters: Detective Brian Cassidy

Quotes 

• Sergeant Olivia Benson : [to Cassidy]  Well, you know, Brian, I've been thinking about it. You know, you and me, we found each other at the darkest, lowest point of our lives, right? You got shot, demoted. I got hurt and you got me through that.

  Brian Cassidy : Well, we've always been there for each other, Liv.

  Sergeant Olivia Benson : You know, maybe that's what it was supposed to be. Maybe... maybe there's something even more right for each of us, you know? I... I still think about about having a family. Do you ever think about having kids with me, or... or... or growing old with me?

  Brian Cassidy : I just don't see myself growing old.

  Sergeant Olivia Benson : I know you don't. I know.

  Brian Cassidy : Look, Liv, there's something that's been on my mind for a long time now, something that I feel like I have to tell you.

  Sergeant Olivia Benson : Go ahead. I can take it.

  Brian Cassidy : No, but it's not like that, not at all, not even close. I love you.

  Sergeant Olivia Benson : I love you too, Brian. Always will.

• Sergeant Olivia Benson : How about dinner tonight?

  Brian Cassidy : Fine, our usual place?

  Sergeant Olivia Benson : Why not we try that new bistro? Something different.

  [leaves] 

  Brian Cassidy : [mumbles to himself]  What's wrong with our place?

• Brian Cassidy : You know, Liv, when you and I moved in here together, I thought that we would get closer, but I just... honestly, it feels like we had more fun when we were just hooking up, you know?

  Sergeant Olivia Benson : I hear you.

  Brian Cassidy : Do you? Look, you went through the worst time of your life, you know with Lewis and the trial. And do you realize that you've never once, not once told me what happened to you?

  Sergeant Olivia Benson : Brian, you don't need to know that. The images that it puts in your head, they never go away.

  Brian Cassidy : So, what, you're protecting me now?

  Sergeant Olivia Benson : I guess.

  Brian Cassidy : Or are you protecting yourself?
