Quotes
-
Dr. Melinda Warner : [during Brianna Lewis's autopsy] She was injected with Versed, a powerful sedative that paralyzes.
Detective Olivia Benson : But doesn't knock you out. Brianna would've felt everything going on, but couldn't move to resist.
Detective Elliot Stabler : Wait a minute. How can you go into labor if you're paralyzed?
Dr. Melinda Warner : Pitocin causes the cervix to dilate.
Detective Olivia Benson : Which pregnant women produce naturally.
Dr. Melinda Warner : But I found evidence of a synthetic form in the anal cavity. I'd say your perp incapacitated her with the Versed and then gave her a Pitocin suppository to induce labor...
Detective Elliot Stabler : And then ripped the baby right out of her.

Dr. Melinda Warner : [When it's discovered during Dr. Newlands' autopsy that he put a tube of blood in his arm]
[about how Dr. Newlands put the tube in his arm]
Dr. Melinda Warner : He could have given himself a local, inserted the tube and stitched himself back up.
Detective Elliot Stabler : Why would he do that?
Dr. George Huang : To beat a paternity test.
Detective Olivia Benson : Son of a bitch. Newlands was the father of Brianna's baby. He put somebody else's blood in that tube.
Detective Elliot Stabler : Hold on a minute, hold on. You have professional people taking blood out of his arm. Wouldn't they notice that?
Dr. Melinda Warner : You only have to roll your sleeve up to the elbow. The scar would've been hidden.
Detective Elliot Stabler : Thought I'd seen everything.
