Scenes with Miguel Prado 7

Miguel Prado

So a man dies, Mr. Morgan. And what's left, a soul? And what is that, exactly?

I really couldn't tell you.

Miguel Prado

Some people say that the soul lives on forever.

I hope not.

Miguel Prado

Which makes you a cynic.

Makes me a ... scientist.

That massage was amazing.

We spend enough money to be members here. At least now I have somebody to go to the spa with.

Miguel

All of that stuff, that's not for men, right, Dex?

Lying naked on a table, helpless, no thanks.

Why risk it all? Your career, reputation, freedom? You can just walk away.

Miguel

You didn't walk away from Ethan Turner, because you understand, Dexter, that we're living in, living in crucial times, crucial times that demand extraordinary measures.

[voiceover] Miguel's convinced himself he wants this kill tonight for lofty and noble reasons. I'm not quite as high-minded.

You ever drop a quart of milk? Watch it spread over the whole kitchen floor? The mess it makes?

Miguel

Yeah.

There's six quarts of blood in the human body. This isn't going to be pretty. There's no shame in backing out.

Miguel

Dex, after 14 years of filing briefs, trying cases, and dealing with bullshit, this is all going to look nice and neat in comparison.

[In Miguel's office, playing PC shooting game]

[voiceover] It's all about strategy. Out-maneuvering the opposition, bending him to your will.

Miguel

What are you doing in my office, Dex?

Winning.

Miguel

[wrapped to a table] It doesn't have to come to this.

But it always does. I had high hopes for you, but I guess I just have to accept that I will always be alone.

Miguel

That's not true.

You talking truth. That's good. You actually had me believing that I could have a friend and you fed me all your bullshit.

Miguel

It wasn't bullshit!

[Clamps a hand over Miguel's mouth] Shh...

Miguel

I tried. I tried to crack through that armor of yours. I know it's a possibility. I can still see the possibilities.

So this is my fault for being shut down?

Miguel

I just wanted you to let me in!

Why the fuck would I do that now?

Miguel

I know you. I know you, Dex, better than anyone else.

Oh, there've been quite a few who've seen the real me as they laid on that table. You're all just unchecked versions of myself. What I would've become without my father's code.

Miguel

I'm not like them! I'm like you.

[Slaps him] No, no, no, no. No. I know I'm a monster.

Miguel

I accept you. I accept you, Dex, like a brother.

I killed my brother.

Miguel

...

I killed yours, too.

Miguel

[Shocked] Oscar?...You?

I didn't plan to, but it was... kill or be killed, ya know.

Miguel

[Wracked with emotion] YOU!!! You killed Oscar!

What did you say in your bachelor party speech? Friends are always honest.

Miguel

Friends forgive. Friends forgive.

But I don't forgive you – and I don't get to have friends.

Miguel

[As Dexter wraps a garrote around his neck] You little freak! You think I'm done with you?! You think this ends here?! IT DOESN'T!!!

It does for you.[Strangles Miguel until he's dead]

[Voiceover] Adios, amigo.
