Phoebe Baker
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Yeah, it's like playing Whac-A-Mole these days. The Internet moved traditional street trade indoors, so now we just target the more obvious fronts.
- Odafin Tutuola: The Thai rub/tug joints?
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Something you wanna confess, Sergeant?
- Dominick Carisi: You two go way back, huh?
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Yep, to Fin's Narco days, back when he used to have to work for a living.
- Odafin Tutuola: Baker's been busting my balls for over twenty years.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: So, what did your john call this place?
- Odafin Tutuola: The Dollhouse.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: These operations are getting wise. The "pop-up" brothels are the new frontier.
- Dominick Carisi: Yeah, they open for a few days, maybe a week, right? Constantly changing locations.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Exactly. And when the feds, in their infinite wisdom, decided to shut down Backpage, they became even tougher to track.
- Dominick Carisi: So they should have kept the site open? I mean, it facilitates prostitution, money laundering, sex trafficking.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Well, it's called the oldest profession for a reason, they went online. Now you just gotta know where to look, and lucky for you two, I do.
- Odafin Tutuola: [finding the Dollhouse website] Whoa, whoa, blow that up.
- [recognizing the victim]
- Odafin Tutuola: That's Torie.
- Dominick Carisi: They could have changed the ad.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: All right, I say we do a sting. We can use my team.
- Odafin Tutuola: We need to get a warrant ASAP.
- Dominick Carisi: I think I know just the guy.
- Judge Edward Kofax: Oh, Detectives, thank you for coming. So you sure these are the guys that had Torie?
- Dominick Carisi: Yes, we're pretty sure, Your Honor. Sergeant Tutuola made contact via text posing as a john. It's the exact same M.O.
- Odafin Tutuola: Judge Barth, Judge Kofax, I know you know Sergeant Baker from Vice, right?
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: It's nice to see you two; sorry to interrupt your evening.
- Judge Elana Barth: Ah, just two colleagues grabbing an after-work cocktail, Sergeant.
- Judge Edward Kofax: [signing the warrant] Do me a favor. Nail these bastards.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: It's what we do best.
- [to Fin, as they leave]
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: It reminds me of us with our "after-work drinks."
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: [briefing her tac team] We got a no-knock warrant on a brothel that is open for business. So, shock and awe, boys, no bullets if possible.
- Odafin Tutuola: The apartment we're hitting is 4E. There's most likely muscle inside.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: And they're definitely strapped, so keep your heads on a swivel.
- Amanda Rollins: Hey. Super unlocked the back door.
- Dominick Carisi: We're good to proceed?
- Odafin Tutuola: Let's go ruin their night.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: What the hell?
- Amanda Rollins: Nobody's home.
- Point ESU: We're clear, Detectives.
- Dominick Carisi: What's this look like to you?
- Odafin Tutuola: They knew we were coming.
- Dominick Carisi: That was Ballistics. The gun we found next to Torie's body belonged to a heroin dealer who was killed in a drug bust.
- Odafin Tutuola: Salt, meet wound.
- Dominick Carisi: No, you don't get it. That gun was bagged and tagged evidence. It's supposed to be sitting at a property clerk's office right now.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: So the only one who had access to it would have been...
- Olivia Benson: Would be a cop.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: A brick in the evidence bag?
- Odafin Tutuola: Someone either broke into the property clerk's office...
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Or checked in a brick in the precinct lockup? You got the letter of transmittal?
- Odafin Tutuola: The bust was made by your squad November 12.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: So you're saying it's a cop from my unit made the switch?
- Odafin Tutuola: It's your move, Baker.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Hey, Gujjar. Uh, D.A.'s office says evidence from a case I was working on got mislabeled. So, um, take a look and tell me what other idiots went into lockup that day, November 12.
- Shaan Gujjar: [checking the log] November 12. Bromland, Fisher, and Ramirez.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: The MENSA society of midtown Manhattan. Thank you.
- [returning to Fin]
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: All right, three detectives signed in to lockup, but Fin, they're all good cops.
- Odafin Tutuola: One of 'em isn't.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: All right, just give me a second here, okay?
- Odafin Tutuola: I gotta report to my lieutenant.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: I get it, we all have bosses. Just... just hold off on calling IAB.
- Dominick Carisi: You know, maybe these cops were set up. Right? There's a lot easier ways to-to get a gun than steal it from an evidence room, you know?
- Odafin Tutuola: [there's a knock on the window] What the...?
- [Baker gets into the back seat]
- Odafin Tutuola: Hey, maybe not so boring.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: I trailed Fisher. He went from his place to the precinct, and he's on night shift, there is no way he's doing dirty on the clock.
- Odafin Tutuola: Well, Bromland's home, so the only one left is Ramirez.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: He's not doing anything, I'm telling you. I know Ramirez; he's a good cop.
- Dominick Carisi: [spotting Ramirez] Yeah, well, maybe his lady friend doesn't want him to smoke inside.
- Odafin Tutuola: [a van passes by] Hold up. Something's going down.
- Dominick Carisi: [Ramirez helps the girls from the brothel out of the van] Okay, we found our dirty cop.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Son of a bitch.
- Odafin Tutuola: Are you telling me the truth, Baker?
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: First of all, yes. Second of all, you used to call me Phoebe.
- Odafin Tutuola: You think this is funny?
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Hilarious, yeah. I... what I think is that you're out of your mind for thinking that I had anything to do with this.
- Odafin Tutuola: Ramirez was tipped off.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Not by me.
- Odafin Tutuola: Why didn't you answer your cell phone?
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: I was with Kofax in the back of Maxwell's, where I don't have cell service. You know what? Screw you. You know me.
- Odafin Tutuola: I used to.
- [she stands to leave]
- Odafin Tutuola: One of the girls was left behind, blonde in her 20s, on the nod.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: I don't know anything about any girls.
- Odafin Tutuola: That's good, 'cause when she comes to, we're gonna show her your picture.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: You do that, you do that. And then go screw yourself, again.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: So, now you want my help, huh?
- Dominick Carisi: Look, we need your help.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Really? And why should I trust either of you? Huh, Fin? Really, thinking that I'm dirty?
- Odafin Tutuola: Phoebe, it looked bad. Because of our history, I held you to a higher standard. I should have known that's not who you are. I apologize; I'm sorry. But now we gotta go nail these bastards.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Hey, Ramirez, is this crap coffee maker giving anything worth having?
- Carlos Ramirez: What do you think?
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: No. I got some French roast from home back at my desk. You want some?
- Carlos Ramirez: I think I'm gonna make a Joe's run. You want anything?
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: No, I'm good.
- Odafin Tutuola: I'm sorry about how I treated you, Phoebe.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: You apologized.
- Odafin Tutuola: I mean how I treated you twenty years ago.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Oh, that.
- Odafin Tutuola: Yeah. I was getting over my marriage, it wasn't fair it became your problem.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Water under the bridge.
- Odafin Tutuola: I'm not that same guy anymore.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Good. I'm not that same girl, either.
- Odafin Tutuola: I know. So I was thinking, if you're into it, maybe we could try again.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Fin, I'm flattered, um... but I'm seeing someone now.
- Odafin Tutuola: Oh, wow, I'm sorry.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: No, it's-it's, um... I don't know if he's the one or anything, but he's... we're good together, so... I actually am supposed to go meet him now. You-you-you wanna come?
- Odafin Tutuola: Oh, no, come on.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Yeah, that's stupid. Okay, um... it was good to see you.
- Odafin Tutuola: You, too.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Take care, Fin.
- Dominick Carisi: I think we got a mole, Lieutenant.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Yeah, I'd watch who you blame, Detective. Your squad knew about this raid, too.
- Dominick Carisi: Excuse me?
- Olivia Benson: How about... how about we don't jump to conclusions?
- Odafin Tutuola: The operation was run through your squad, Phoebe.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: You came to me. I mean, maybe they made you for a cop off your text. How are those UC skills working for you these days?
- Amanda Rollins: Everybody calm down.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: No, no, you know what? You calm down. Cops don't railroad other cops.
- Odafin Tutuola: Up goes the blue wall of silence?
- Olivia Benson: Hey, guys, stop, both of you. Listen to me. There are two possibilities. Either they knew that we were coming or they got a bad feeling and they changed things up just to be safe. But either way, we turned their door into splinters, so... so they're onto us now.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: What the hell happened?
- Odafin Tutuola: You tell us.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: What? Where's Ramirez?
- Dominick Carisi: Somebody tipped them off, again.
- Odafin Tutuola: Where you been?
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: What? I've been getting a warrant.
- Odafin Tutuola: Why didn't you answer your cell?
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: What? Wait a minute, you don't think I had something to do with this?
- Odafin Tutuola: You and I need to talk, that's what I think.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: [a little insulted] Really? Fin.
- Odafin Tutuola: Right now.
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: Well, to teamwork.
- Odafin Tutuola: [clinking glasses] To teamwork. Gonna be okay?
- Sgt. Phoebe Baker: I mean, seeing Ramirez go down was like a... a gut punch, and I have a lot of explaining to do to my captain, but yeah.
