[after Kevin has confessed to what he has done]

Stabler:
It's not coercion.

Dr. Huang:
You pushed Kevin into a psychotic break so I would drug him so you could coerce his confession.

Stabler:
I did what I had to do to save that boy.

Dr. Huang:
Great. What are you gonna do next? Bash in people's skulls to make 'em talk?

Stabler:
You know, your way, Adam wouldn't have been found until he was starved to death.

Captain Cragen:
All right, that's enough, both of you. Did the medication hurt Kevin?

Dr. Huang:
No.

Captain Cragen:
Then what's the harm?

Dr. Huang:
Unless a court forces him to, it's Kevin's choice whether to take it. We don't have the right to make that decision for him.

Stabler:
Do me a favor. Stop treatin' this perp like he's your patient.

Dr. Huang:
He became my patient the second I gave him that injection!

Stabler:
Then do me a favor. Start thinkin' about the victims here. The kid he kidnapped. The 2 people he stabbed. They're your victims, Doc! Not Kevin!

Dr. Huang:
You made Kevin a victim, and I'm gonna testify on his behalf if this goes to trial, which Kevin will win since you handed the defense its case!

Stabler:
How'd I do that?

Dr. Huang:
They're gonna make you say that he wasn't rational until he was medicated, which means he's not responsible for his actions before then. You get it now?!
