Right up there with Alex's "Thank you. You've presented a provocative theory. What it lacks in substance, it makes up for in pretty colors."

To be somewhat more serious, I dig Cap'n Foo Foo's interchange with Alex at the end of "Secrets", after the Marni the teacher's rapist-murderer isn't indicted:

Cragen: The law isn't always about justice.
Alex: Who let you in on our little secret?
Cragen: All the Marnis who came before.

Others?

Munch: Up until 1952, the treatment was hysterical paroxysm.
Court Reporter:"Could the witness spell that please?
Munch: O-R-G-A-S-M.
Court Reporter: Oh!

[captain sam]

Most recently, from "Rage":

Munch: "I looked like a retarded gazelle with a spastic disorder."

Fin: "Don't worry baby. I'll always love you."

[TobyRagg]

Two words: Nosy. Parker.

The best/most quotable lines really speak for themselves, since they're the ones we forum-users keep quoting and revising and re-contextualizing until they become FUEs. And as a relative newbie on the forums, I must say listening for them in context is making watching the reruns so much more fun. The other night the pregnant-woman-with-Down's Syndrome ep was on, and when Alex delivered her now-infamous line about setting her stove on fire I nearly peed myself. But maybe that's just because I'm a lesbian.

[Learned Hand]

[whisper, tearful voice] "How...long?"

[Sing1118]

Munch: ...now I'm a pain in my own ass.

Cassidy: Trying to rain on my parade? (paraphrase)
Munch: I don't just wanna rain on it, I wanna blow up all the floats.

Morrow: Honey, I'd like a mineral water, no ice.
Olivia: And I'd like your balls in a blender, but ain't life a bitch?

[The defense attorney is trying to accuse Munch and Fin of beating up the perp]
Alex: The only injuries I see are Mr. Gardner's torn knuckles from punching Detective Benson in the face, so unless you want to add the assault of a police officer to the list of charges, I suggest you move on.

Because I love me some feisty Alex and Olivia.

"I can smell you."

“Trust me; when you’re being brutalized by me, you’ll know it.”

"Did your son cry?"

"I'm a level thirteener!"

What was the one from Desperate about being a single father because he killed the child's mother? Great quote; I just can't remember it.

"Naw, Baby!"

"You don't carry a purse."
"That's 'cause you carry it for me."

"Too manly."

"You're a tease, Detective Stabler."

Oh, yes. We know.

"I'm a virgin, Dad!" *soccer ball rolls past Stabler*

[screeched] "Unbelievable!"

Alex: I'm sorry.
Elliot: No you're not.
Alex: I'm sorry you were ever involved in this. But you're right ... I'm not sorry about the rest.

"Dad's mad."

"He must have been compensating for something to need a boat that big."

And my personal favorite...
"Is that. your. signature."

Alex: "He wouldn't be a single parent if he hadn't killed his wife."

Love snarky!Alex.

[Tarheel]

I was fond of this recent one:
Huang, Master of the Obvious: I can tell you that your average video gamer is male, aged 16 to 60.
Stabler: (dripping with sarcasm) Thanks, Doc.

(We need a lines you'll never hear on SVU thread, too!)

[Greenly]

Alex: "Shut up."

"I am not out of line, and I DON'T WORK FOR YOU!" (comes in handy so often!)

And I'm still lovin' "Do you have a question?"

[Learned Hand]

Very recent and very excellent:

Casey: I think you're ready.
Alex: Are you?

Followed by a classic Alex insincere apology.

[jfdb]

"Do you have a Sep-tem-bRRR birTH-day, Ashley?"

"What is that: 'LMAO'? I'm sorry, I can't hear you." the Casenator tries to snark. Baby lurches, sweetie.

"What are you, an A cup?" ha! are you blind?

"I was helping her up."
"Right, with your penis."

eta- or is that one "What, with your penis." works either way.

[Tarheel]

Don't forget Donnelly to Casey: Did you lose yet?

[Learned Hand]

eta- or is that one "What, with your penis." works either way.

I think it's actually just "With your penis?"

[anomalys]

Also memorable from Ghost:

Upon their first glimpse of pantene!Alex...

Olivia: "Alex." <I love you!>
Elliot: "You didn't have to come back." <I missed you!>
Alex: "I know, but who else is gonna get you out of trouble?"

Which just gives me the warm tinglies... until Casey opens her mouth to ruin the reunion.

"I can't find my head"

(Back to lurk mode)

[mandolin611]

"Make her go away."

[Sing1118]

Make who go away?


Olivia upon first meeting Casey: Who the hell are you?

(I just love her annoyed voice. "Who are you and how dare you try to replace my girlfriend?")

[jfdb]

"Do people have sex in bed anymore?!" bitter, Olivia?

[UltraViolet730]

Aww, don't go back to lurking, peeps. Keep those fun quotes coming.

"Make her go away" should win a prize. It was appropriate in the scene because Casey was so lurchingly scary, and it was achingly meta-rific, because we have all been pleading for that since that first, decidely un-Serendipitous lurch.

[Learned Hand]

Make who go away?

Sing! For shame! That brilliant quote came from the son in "Home" and was aimed at none other than Casey herself.

It's part of Casey raps, too.

[Dani-Ellie]

Casey: I've had this nightmare before, only I was naked.
Judge Petrovsky: ...Charming.

[embarrased whisper]I think that's my favorite scene in all of SVU.[/whisper]

[Sing1118]

Make who go away?

Sing! For shame!

Ah, well, that explains it. I haven't seen Home.
I have a lot of lost episodes, I'm just happy that I finally got to see Guilt and Denial.

[Learned Hand]

More Judicial Wisdom...

Judge MyHero/Tom Skerrit [to Casey]: Next time you're in my courtroom, dress appropriately.

And a bit of Vintage Petrovsnarksky...

Judge Petrovsky: Do you plan to argue your case right here, Miss Cabot?
Alex: No, I'm merely using rhetoric to make my point.
Judge Petrovsky: ...One of your more endearing qualities.

Judge Petrovsky: I don't ever want to have this many lawyers in my chambers again. So next time, leave the dog and pony show at home.

And in the "it's random, but dirty!" category...

Alex: What do you propose, a tumescence exam?

"Wanton sexual activies."

Ohhh, I do love when Liz says that the jury thinks "she makes little boys cry" during Juvenile. Or is it little kids? Whatever, still so funny.

Fin: Here pussy pussy pussy...
Munch: You're kidding, right?
Fin: This is not my area of expertise.

I'll think of more later.

[Sing1118]

Elliot: The Sebastian Valentine?
Valentine: You've heard of me?
Elliot: No.

And

[Stabler hits Valentine]
Elliot: What you didn't see that coming?
Valentine: No, but I see an anger management class in the future.

That was great.

[lostingeekdom]

Cragen: And the wife's too dim to exist!!

Gawd .. love me some Foo Foo.
