- Quotes
Odafin Tutuola: [at a country bar with Rollins] And why am I here and not at home playing video games with Jayden?
Amanda Rollins: Well, one, Jayden's too young to be playing video games. Two, my rat-bastard ex? He had these tickets, and there was no way I was gonna let him have them. And three, I needed company.
Odafin Tutuola: [noticing one of the band members' interest in her] Company. Seems like you're doing fine right now.
Amanda Rollins: I'm just enjoying the music.
Odafin Tutuola: Right. Oh, and my dog died, and my truck broke down, and I'm starting to feel like a third wheel.
This episode of Law & Order: SVU is teaching younger views - and, sadly, even some adults - that some crimes, especially if you have "had it worse," which is also a matter of your own perspective, is perfectly fine. If your story hasn't yielded enough attention, then commit a crime, especially against the person(s) that harmed you. And if someone gets hurt or killed in the process, as it did happen in this episode of Law & Order: SVU, then that's okay, too, because that's all that matters in the end, at least to those writing and running this show seem to suggest.
Seeking revenge is NEVER, ever an okay thing to do. It's that plain and simple. -CDM
