Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, Season 21
O'Toole:
I was serving my country. I've been on the front lines of a foreign invasion for 20 years.
Sonny:
Serving your country? By dipping your wick?
O'Toole:
It was a test. It's the only way to know if they really love their husbands.
Sonny:
Okay, okay. You told me before that if they really loved their husbands, they wouldn't sleep with you.
O'Toole:
That's right.
Sonny:
But when they refused you, you threw them in jail, and when they did sleep with you, you gave them their green card. Now, you can lie to yourself all you want, but you raped these women.
O'Toole:
No, absolutely not! I was just doing what I had to do to protect our borders.
Buchanan:
[nervous] Rory, he understands...
O'Toole:
No, he doesn't understand it. I'm holding the line against more mouths to feed, more people on Medicaid, our public schools and our hospitals, taking our jobs! These people bleed the system dry, and I stop that from happening!
Sonny:
Not one more word from you! What you did to these women... How many of them have had to live with your violation in secret, in fear? You took advantage of them when they were at their most helpless, their most vulnerable, and you used the power of your government position to force them to demean themselves. They came here hoping for the American Dream, and you made their lives a nightmare!
