Dreama Walker: Detective Reese Taymor

Quotes 

• Detective Reese Taymor : [to Rollins]  If the chief sent you to shut me up, it's a wasted trip. I'm zipping my mouth and I'm going home.

  Amanda Rollins : That's not why I'm here. Patton raped you and you're gonna need to cooperate with us. If this goes to trial, you need to testify.

  Detective Reese Taymor : Yeah, because you want justice for little old me?

  Amanda Rollins : Yes.

  Detective Reese Taymor : So everyone at home can know what happened to me, my humiliation, and know what I've been through and call me a slut just like you? I am nothing like you.

  Amanda Rollins : Because you're a good girl.

  Detective Reese Taymor : Yes. I worked hard to get where I am.

  Amanda Rollins : I know that. I know that's why this is so hard, because you feel like if you do your job well, if you work twice as hard as the men, then you will be seen as a good detective, right? But Chief Patton, he's king. The way he figures it, he's entitled to...

  Detective Reese Taymor : I knew his reputation, to not be the last person in the office. Watch out for the accidental touches. He'd make his jokes, I'd smile, tell him I was flattered, but that nothing was happening.

  Amanda Rollins : Wait, you weren't having an affair?

  Detective Reese Taymor : No. Is that what he is saying? And Captain Reynolds is backing him up on that?

  Amanda Rollins : Yeah, you know guys are gonna talk whether we sleep with them or not. You think Sam Reynolds wanted everybody to know that I turned him down? You think you're Chief Patton's first good girl?

  Detective Reese Taymor : So everything they said about you and why you left, none of that is true?

  Amanda Rollins : No.

• Deputy Chief Charles Patton : Folks, this is Detective Reese Taymor. This is her first conference.

  Olivia Benson : Oh, well, welcome to New York.

  Detective Reese Taymor : Oh, just like the song.

• John Buchanan : [to Reese]  You were found passed out on your bathroom floor.

  Detective Reese Taymor : Yes.

  John Buchanan : They had to call an ambulance for you. For an ambitious detective like yourself, that must have been very embarrassing.
