Ted: I'm telling you, I did not solicit sex! I was just stopping to go the bathroom, next thing I know I tripped over something - well someone - and, POOF, there's cops and lights and...
Detective Stabler: Okay, calm down, Ted, we believe you. The problem is we found your friend in the car
[Detective Stabler refers to the dead body found in Ted's car, which unbeknown to Ted was left by the hitchhiker. Ted has no idea about the body. He thinks the police is going to charge him with picking hitchhiker, as the hitchhiker told him it was a felony]
Ted: [smiles] Oh. The hitchhiker. That's what this is all about. Isn't that just my luck - I get caught for everything.
Detective Krevoy: So you admit it?
Ted: Guilty as charged. I'm not gonna play games with you. I could give you a song and dance but what's the point? I did it and we all know it. The hitcher himself told me it's illegal The irony.
Detective Krevoy: Well, uh, can you tell us his name?
Ted: Jeez, I didn't catch it
Detective Stabler: So he was a stranger? It was totally random?
Ted: He was the first hitcher I saw, what can I tell you? Now cut to the chase, how much trouble am I in?
Detective Stabler: First tell us why you did it.
Ted: Why I did it? I don't know. Boredom? I thought I was doing the guy a favor.
Detective Krevoy: [trying to control himself] This wasn't your first time, was it, Ted? How many we talking?
Ted: Hitchhikers? I don't know - fifty... a hundred maybe - who keeps track? Hey, I know this is the Bible Belt, but where I come from this is not that big a deal.
Detective Krevoy: [exploding in rage, he slams Ted's head against the desk] You son of a bitch! You're gonna fry!
