"Besides her going to niagara falls with her dog?" "She never made it, and now she's in early looking into some guy's parking tickets." "So she met a dude." "Good for her." "And she's already checking tickets for him?" "I mean..." "Why are you so interested?" "You got something going for Rollins?" "What?" "Of course not." "Hey, gossip girls."

"Liv, I didn't want to take any chances, all right?" "After what happened with you." "All right?" "I'm not stalking her." "Well, it's funny that you should say that." "How are you and Maria doing?" "We're working it out." "Yeah." "Yeah, Nick, the thing is, is that" "Maria has called me a couple of times." "And she's worried about you." "Okay?" "Is there anything you want to tell me about?" "I'm sorry she pulled you in." "She won't need to call you again." "Good." "And keep away from Rollins too." "Yeah, sarge." "One more task." "Marcelo, the Brazilian, needs a lift home and help up the stairs." "I..." "Don't flatter yourself." "He's not into trailer trash." "Yeah, well, that waitress that ratted me out?" "She's 16."

"[Phone buzzes]" "How's the flu?" "I just took a couple mental health days." "Yeah, right." "How much do you need?" "I'm fine." "I'm moonlighting to pay it off." "Where?" "Working security at a club." "This club have cards?" "How much do you owe?" "Are they asking you for anything?" "Addresses, licenses." "Can you just walk away?" "Soon." "It's not soon enough." "I mean, if I'm noticing, other people are noticing." "Amanda, this is gonna come down on your thick head." "You know what, Fin?" "I mean, come on, okay?" "I got it under control." "Okay." "You know where to find me." "And take this." "Whatever you're doing, I want you to stop now." "I'm not ready for another partner." "Partner cares." "It's touching." "I said I'd get rid of him." "I did." "You didn't have to come." "He keeps nosing around, then it's a problem." "Yeah, well, maybe it's time for me to get out." "Too late." "Sondra needs another favor." "Carlos here got himself into a bit of a jam driving a client home a while back." "I got stopped in a speed trap with an unlicensed gun." "It was a setup." "I don't work for the D.A." "Say the gun goes away." "There goes the case, right?" "You don't have a record?" "No priors?" "Not even a parking ticket." "See what you can do." "Hey." "Need to sign this out." "The paperwork's all here." "Sign right there, detective Wheeler." "Nicely done, Amanda." "This takes care of the interest on your debt this week." "Since the charges were dropped, my DNA's not in the system no more, right?" "It never was." "DNA isn't entered into codis unless there's a conviction." " When's your next shift at SVU?" " It's tonight." "But I can't take any more sick days." "My sergeant's on me." "Any chance you could pull a double?" "What's this?" "Something I should know about?" "If you needed to know about it, Declan, I would've told you." "We'll be in touch." "See the clock?" "Yeah, I just have a few things to clean up here." "[Phone ringing]" "SVU." "Yeah." "24 East 63rd Street." "Okay, I got it." "[Phone thuds]" "You know what?" "I'll take it." "You guys have been carrying my weight for a while." "I'll come with you, partner." "So what you got?" "Brazilian diplomat's home." "Perp uses the security keypad, enters, pulls a gun, ties the husband up, rapes the wife." "He took some cash but left her jewelry and electronics." "Oh, and major case is sending over their art crimes expert." "Art crimes expert?" "Apparently some significant paintings were stolen." "Beatriz Amarante," "Brazil's foremost modern something-or-other." "High end art thieves." "They usually hit and run." "Why stay around and rape the wife?" "Good question." "Waiting for SVU." "You do something!" "Aren't you the police?" "Detective Tutuola, SVU, Mr..." "Guarana." "Marcelo Guarana." "What the hell took you so long?" "I'm gonna take the wife." "Want to just tell me what happened?" "I, uh..." "My wife got raped." "I came in." "He jumped me, he wore a mask." "I thought you said you got a good look at him." "I didn't see anything." "He jumped me." "Okay." "What kind of mask?" "Black, blue... a mask." "A mask." "All right, okay, okay." "They did this to hurt him." "Mrs. Guarana?" "EMTs are gonna take you to the hospital." "I just have to ask you a few questions." "No, no..." "I get the message." "Okay?" "I know what to do." "What to do?" "I don't remember anything, right?" "I'm in pain." "Can I go?" "Ma'am." "Yeah." "Okay." "Let's go." "So the diplomat told the responding detective that he saw the rapist's face, but he told you that the rapist wore a mask?" " How's the wife?" " She shut down." "I don't know." "Maybe she's in shock." "Or they know the perp and they're afraid of him." "Well, the assailant knew them, knew their door code, which paintings to take..." "So the rape is to throw us off?" "Or send a message." "We can talk to the consulate in the morning." "Maybe they know something." "Isn't he the head of the consulate?" "You know what?" "I can pull the front door security video, check for other cameras on the block." "I mean, the guy's pretty brazen." "We might get something." "Anything from the front door?" "That video's gone." "The perp must've taken it." "But I found a good camera from across the street." "Whoa, whoa." "Slow down." "I know you're fast." "I can't see a thing." "You know, I got this." "Anything from the lab?" "The victim wouldn't do a rape kit." "CSU recovered semen and hair from the crime scene." "They're running the DNA." "So I visited the Brazilian consulate." "They were, uh, less than helpful." "Okay, thanks." " You got something?" " Yeah, we got a hit on the DNA." "Carlos Riva." "Are you sure?" "I mean, he's in the system, and he leaves his DNA at the scene?" "Any record?" "He got a gun charge that just got dropped." "Well, how do we have his DNA then?" "Had a misdemeanor last fall, stalking in the fourth degree." "He got it pled down to domestic assault." "Good thing New York finally authorized all crimes DNA." "He must've not realized that." "He must've thought that once the gun charge was dropped his DNA wasn't in the system." "So we're looking for a dummy." "The arrest report says he was a driver at a Chelsea art gallery." "Let's follow up with this gallery," " see if he still works there." " Okay, we're on it." " Guys, I've been on 16 hours." " Okay, you know what?" "You go home." "We got this." "Whatever you're thinking..." "Don't." "[Middle eastern accent] You said his name is Carlos Riva?" "Mmhmm." "I'm sorry." "I don't recognize him." "He was a driver." "I don't deal with the delivery men." "Well, he also claimed to work security here." "I can check." "Can I ask why the police are looking for him?" "We just want to ask him a few questions." "You're the owner, right?" "Your bookkeeper must keep a record of employee addresses." "She's on leave." "I'll have my assistant call her." "She'll get back to you." "Yeah." "Soon, okay?" "Now let me ask you, are you familiar with a painter named Beatriz Amarante?" "One of Brazil's significant talents." " Do you carry any of her work?" " No." "She's an audacious painter, but she's not quite on our radar." "Okay, Carlos works in an art gallery and the Brazilians' art was stolen." "Right." "It seem strange to you he just happens to have a gun charge dismissed yesterday for lack of evidence?" "That is why you wanted the gun charge dropped, so Carlos could rape that woman without worrying about leaving DNA?" "This had nothing to do with me... this was all her." "Wait, you ordered a revenge assault on an innocent woman?" "She had fair warning." "So did he." "Marcelo thought he was untouchable." " We had to send him a message." " It was stupid!" "That's why I'm supposed to be part of these decisions." "Now you've compromised an asset." "Are you serious?" "Why do you think she's here?" "We'll raise red flags because of this cock-up." " They have Carlos's DNA." " Yeah, well, this cock-up is her fault." "She didn't get the DNA out of codis." "[Items clatter]" "Because he looked me in the eye and he told me he had no record!" "[Laughs] He lied." "He's a criminal." "You know, maybe you should've run his name through your computer before you told us he was out of the system." " Clean it up." " And if I say no?" "Well, then we will throw you to your own people for stealing a gun out of evidence." "You can't prove it." "No?" "You took a gun from evidence." "You handed it to me." "That's a felony." "Sondra, you think." "How is she gonna fix this?" "They have the Eejit's DNA." "She'll come up with something." "I need a DNA sample from Carlos." "Carlos,ven aqui." " Run this by me again?" " This sample is from a man the Vic was having an affair with." "I just need you to match it with the DNA found at the scene." "Well, shouldn't this be coming from CSU?" "Yeah, okay, I'll get you the paperwork later." "Just the husband is a Brazilian diplomat who's got anger management issues, okay?" "She begged me for discretion." "Are you sure you don't want to wait for Warner?" " She's on her way back." " No, no, no." "It's no need to bother her, really." "I mean, it's gonna be a routine suspect elimination that's gonna help avoid a diplomatic nightmare." "I need your signature right here." "Like I told ya on the phone." "The gun was signed out by detective Megan Wheeler." "She had all the right paperwork..." "Yeah, Megan Wheeler retired four years ago." "How was I supposed to know that?" "Just" " Okay." " It gets worse." "Pulled these off a cam across the street from the Brazilian consulate two nights ago when Rollins was out with the flu." "And there's more." "Rollins brought in an elimination DNA sample." "Claims it's from the man that the Vic was having an affair with." "But it's a match for Carlos Riva." "Is he still in custody?" "Liv, you know what this means." "Yes, I know what this means, and I will handle it." "Stop digging." "Now." "Do not tip her off." "You need to pretend that everything is normal." " But, Liv..." " I'm commanding officer." "This is on me." "Look, Liv, I would never go behind your back." "But I need to let Amanda know that we know." "Okay?" "She's my partner." "If it was Nick, Elliot..." " Okay." "I get it." " Really?" "You fixed a rape case." "Did you know that beforehand?" "No." "I swear to God." "Well, that doesn't mean much coming from you." "Amanda, you need to turn yourself in." "What, to I.A.B.?" "They're gonna put me in prison." "Yeah, they will." "You got in with this crowd." "You had to know that nothing good would come of it." "I was trying to work myself out of it and just be done." "You are done, Amanda." "I'm here as a courtesy to Fin." "I'm calling I.A.B." "Let me turn myself in." "Just give me a few hours." "I need to figure out something to do with Frannie." "Please." "8:00 A.M. tomorrow morning." "Whatever it is you've been doing, whoever you're working for, it's over." "I'm taking you in." "Excuse me." "Do I know you?" "[Grunts] Listen to me." "You stay away from Rollins." "You the boyfriend?" "Huh?" "She's not half bad." "Once you get past the used part." "They're not just taking my shield." "I'm an accessory to rape." "That means prison time!" "I've never met you." "And if you try to cut a deal, my boss will put a bullet in your head." "He's done it before." "That cop from the 12th last summer who ate his gun." "It wasn't a suicide." "Get up." "Okay." "Okay." "And if you don't think I'd shoot, you don't know me at all." "This is not necessary." " Shut up, Declan." " Put your gun on the desk." "The drop one too." "Yeah, that's right." "Step back." "Put your hands where I can see them." "Me and you need to talk." " If you want money..." " I need to see your boss." "I need to get out of the country." "Okay." "Here, call him." "Tell him you need to see him." "[Footsteps]" "Don't... move." "Stand up." "Get your hands up." "Go." " Sondra, what's..." " Shut up." "Keep 'em up." "It's there." "Now put it on the table." "And get your hands up!" "If anything happens to her or the baby..." "It's your baby." " Nice work, sister." " Pleasantries dispensed with." "Say your piece." "Now I need a passport and $1 million in cash." "What fantasy world are you living in?" "You have galleries in Geneva, Montreal, Monte Carlo, Shanghai." " They're all laundromats, right?" " Yes." " We can wire you the money." " In cash." "And you have a private jet?" "How far do you think you'll get?" "As far as I want, because I'm taking your baby mama here with me for insurance." "I'm too far along." "I can't fly." "Yes, you can." "'Cause I.A.B. Is on to me." "So tomorrow we're gonna be in Switzerland or you're gonna be giving birth to a baby boy in prison." "Okay, sweetie?" "Anton, we have enough." "Let's all go." "Yeah." "Let's all go." "[Gasps] I need to sit down." "Go, go, go." "Go ahead." "Just breathe." "Breathe." "[Grunts]" "Are you all right?" "Kill her!" "Hands in the air, both of you!" "Lieutenant Declan Murphy, NYPD." "You're all under arrest." " You can't record this." " Shut up." "You're not calling the shots." "I am." "Now come here." "Huh." "[Accent gone] Whatever you're looking to give me," "I'm not interested, and I don't want you ever claiming I was." "Lieutenant Declan Murphy, Manhattan Vice." " You have a shield?" " Not when I'm U.C." "The color of the day is green." "The date of your appointment to NYPD was 6/20/2011." "You were winked in." "In exchange for some dead weight they shipped off to Atlanta." " Are you gonna turn me in?" " I should." "But I'm not risking two years of undercover work because of a dirty cop." "So this is how this plays out." "Sondra wants a pretty detective running errands for her, and that's exactly what you're gonna do." "You stay close to her." "You report directly to me..." "Officially on loan to vice, yeah?" "From that point on, detective Rollins was a fully cooperating U.C." "You had an NYPD officer involved in a criminal enterprise." "You should've come straight to us." "I spent two years trying to connect Sondra to Nadari." "Rollins did it in three days." "Well, putting aside the way she did it, the diplomat's wife getting raped..." "Either of you know about that?" "No." "I didn't." "I'm sick about it." "I'll regret it till the end of my days." "All right." "I understand you have Carlos Riva in custody for the rape and theft." "We cleared the DNA interference in the investigation through proper channels." "Riva will plead guilty to rape one and grand larceny." "And Anton Nadari put him up to it..." "the man the New York Times just profiled as a superstar international art dealer." "It was all a cover story." "The illegal gambling was just the tip of the iceberg." "The fed and NYPD accountants are having a field day going through this guy's financials." "I have his entire confession right here." "I had it on a wire in the gallery." "We will get him on money laundering, art theft, art forgery, extortion, rape, murder of a cop." "His pregnant accomplice is turning state's evidence." "The pregnant woman you pulled a gun on." "I'm sure you understand that's the nature of undercover work." "Sometimes you have to violate protocol, use questionable methods to obtain results." "The ends justify the means." "That's right!" "I wish it were that simple, Lieutenant." "Detective." "I'm taking this upstairs." "You haven't heard the end of this." "Given detective Rollins's exemplary performance, she'll keep her shield." "Or I'm gonna take it upstairs, sergeant." "You could've busted me when I first walked in that club and saved yourself a lot of grief." "I could have, but when you came in that back room," "I saw someone about to hit rock bottom." "My higher power looking out for me, huh?" "I don't know about that, but I do know this." "Declan Murphy believes in the possibility of redemption, that one or two venal sins don't define you." "The choice is yours." "Let's hope you make a better one than the ones you've been making lately." "How much does my sergeant know about how we met?" "I finessed it, but she's smart." "I suggest you come clean, stay clean." "May the road rise to meet you, detective, hmm?" "What was I supposed to do?" "I was working undercover." "I know." "But you couldn't tell me?" " I'm sorry." " And Benson knew?" "She had to." "And you couldn't trust me?" "How did vice know where you were?" "Fin, let it go." "No, no, you know what?" "You deserve to know." "Rollins." "Yeah, sergeant." "I'm not happy about any of this." "I had to lie to Fin." "I had to lie to Amaro." "A woman was raped." "Lieutenant Murphy swore that neither he nor you knew about that." "And that's right, I didn't." "There's no way I would've gone along with this if I had." "Do you want to tell me how you wound up working undercover in a gambling club?" "You already know." "I fell behind at the club." "They found out I was a cop, and they used it as leverage." "I just got lucky that, um..." "Lieutenant Murphy was U.C., didn't I?" "You know, Lieutenant Murphy may trust you." "I don't." "And if we weren't so short-staffed," "I'd transfer you." "Today." "I deserve that." "I don't know if I can get back into your good graces, but I'm gonna try, sergeant." "Okay." "We're done here."
