Quotes 

• Trevor Langan : Noah's all right?

  Olivia Benson : Yeah, he just has a cold. But today, of all days.

  Trevor Langan : I know that this is stressful, but you have got nothing to worry about.

  Olivia Benson : Then why are we here?

  Trevor Langan : My best guess? Judge Linden agreed to a courtesy hearing to cover her bases. She's the one who suggested you take Noah, and the circumstances were a little bit unorthodox.

  Olivia Benson : Just promise me I'm not going to lose my son.

• Sheila Porter : I have no intention of ripping a little boy from the only home he has ever known, but I have serious reservations about Ms. Benson's fitness to parent.

  Ruth Linden : How so?

  Sheila Porter : My PI became aware of Noah's existence from an ACS investigation for suspected child abuse.

  Olivia Benson , Trevor Langan : That investigation is closed.

  Trevor Langan : Your Honor, and it has absolutely no bearing on the validity of the adoption.

  Olivia Benson : There was no findings of wrongdoing.

  Sheila Porter : I understand that there were bruises.

  Olivia Benson : There were bruises on Noah because I saved him from almost being hit by a cab. I love my son. I would never, *ever*, do anything to hurt that boy. I want what's best for him. I always have.

  Sheila Porter : If you really cared about what's best for him, you wouldn't deny him a relationship with his grandmother, his only living blood relative. I may not be able to overturn the adoption, Your Honor, but I am determined to be a part of this little boy's life, for his sake.
