Joey Quinn quotes from Dexter

Dexter, you got a minute?

Dexter

Yeah, I need to get to my lab.

Has Deb mentioned anything to you, you know, about us?

Dexter

She may have said you proposed.

And?

Dexter

The pancakes weren't bad.

Is that really what's bothering you?

Debra

What? What... What the fuck else?

Maybe you're jealous.

Debra

Are you kidding? I could give a fuck who you fuck. Just don't fuck with my investigation, you fuck.

What's the painting of?

Debra

It's the beast being thrown into the lake of fire. It's the last tableau.

Angel

Why do you think he smashed in the face?

Dexter

I can't imagine.

Batista

Hey, what do we have?

Dexter

Robert Bailey, killed by a single gunshot wound to the chest, right above the heart.

Masuka

Judging from the stippling on the wound, it looks like the muzzle of the gun was in contact with the victim's chest when fired.

Batista

Suicide?

Dexter

No, the victim was killed elsewhere and dumped here. [Dexter lifts the victim's head. A part of the head falls. He raises the part to reveal a piece of the brain] Parietal and occipital bone sliced through. Back of the cranium removed.

Batista

Okay, that's weird.

Dexter

And looks like a piece of it has been scooped out, like with a melon baller.

Just got weirder.

We have a gun.

Batista

So someone shoots this guy, cuts his head open, and messes with his brain. He takes the body and the weapon and brings them all the way out here. Why?

Dexter

People are crazy.

I mean, you think Miller's clean? Come on... You dig deep enough on anyone in this department, and you know what you find?

Dexter

What?

The shit. It's there. I mean, we all got it. I know you know what I'm talking about.

Dexter

Yeah, I can't argue with that. We've all got the shit.

Yeah. Big difference is, some people get away with theirs, and some people don't.

Dexter

Well, you're a good detective. It'll work out.

Batista

I'm calling your brother.

Debra

No, he's leaving with Harrison. If you tell him what happened, he'll stay.

Batista

Deb-

Debra

I swear to fucking God, I'm not getting on that ambulance if you call him.

Batista

Okay.

[to paramedic] Can I ride with you to the hospital?

Yeah, no problem sir.

[to Debra] For once don't argue with me. I'm in the ambulance. That's it.

Debra

You're such a fucking asshole.

Debra

[in pain] Ooh You know, I really hate getting shot.

[chuckles] You need to stop that.

Debra

I thought that was it, I thought I was going to die.

No, you'll live forever.

Debra

I thought I was getting what I deserved.

What you deserved? Why would you deserve that?

Debra

I've done shit I'm not proud of. Stuff I can't take back.

I've done shit I'm not proud of.

Debra

Not the same.

I know. You went through a bad time. But I've fucked up too, Deb, a lot. I think we get to make up for it, you know?

Debra

How?

Do enough good in the world, it kind of cancels out the bad.

Debra

I think we'd need to save a busload of nuns or something.

You're a good person, a lot better than most. Now that you're back on the force, you'll have a million chances to do good. Maybe even save that busload of nuns. [smiles] But if they're like the ones I had in school, let 'em go. Come here. [kisses her on the forehead]
