- Markus' Grandmother: Markus, did you beat up on a girl?
- Markus Green: He's not a girl, Grandma. He's one of them he-shes.
- Olivia Benson: Wow.
- Markus Green: Acts like one, wears makeup.
- Markus' Grandmother: Why would anyone do that?
- Olivia Benson: That's not the issue. The issue is your grandson pushed a kid off a bridge.
- Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr.: Is she conscious?
- Officer: In and out. And she's not a she.
- Amanda Rollins: Transgender?
- Officer: Boy dressed as a girl? That makes him... her a special victim, right?
- Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr.: Yeah. Good call.
- Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr.: Hey, Rollins. Let me ask you something. What makes a boy decide to be a girl? I mean, is it that he likes boys? He just doesn't want to be gay?
- Amanda Rollins: There's a difference between gender identity and sexuality, Carisi.
- Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr.: Yeah, yeah. You know, my parents, they think this is all about getting attention.
- Amanda Rollins: Uh-huh. You were a 14-year-old boy once and would you or any other boy you knew put on a skirt if it didn't come from a really real place?
- Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr.: No, not a chance.
- Amanda Rollins: [to Fin] You know, if you were Avery, would you want to hear anything that Darius has to say right now?
- Odafin Tutuola: My son got the crap kicked out of him when he was a boy just for being gay. No one ever apologized to him.
- Avery: I was taking pictures on the bridge, when they surrounded me.
- Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr.: Avery, can you describe them?
- Avery: Black. My age. They were giving me the look.
- Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr.: What look is that?
- Avery: The "freak needs to learn a lesson" look. I tried to go, but they started saying stuff.
- Olivia Benson: What were they saying?
- Avery: Tranny. He-she, my personal fave. I told them to leave me alone. One grabbed my skirt, another my camera. I was pushed, and I tripped on my heels.
- Olivia Benson: Avery, can you remember anything else about the boys? Anything they said or they did?
- Avery: It was all a blur of shoving. People laughing, taking video.
- Eric Parker: This isn't the first time. And the local precinct never follows up.
- Olivia Benson: We will. We take this very seriously. I give you my word, Mr. Parker.
- Keon Williams: [about Avery] That tranny started it, all up in our face with, you know, being weird.
- Jewell Williams: That boy goes around dressed like a girl? You should be talking to his parents, not my son.
- Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr.: Well, they're in the hospital and you're here, so think about that.
- Dominick 'Sonny' Carisi, Jr.: Oh God, what do we say to them? We're sorry?
- Olivia Benson: Never gets easier
