“Love American Style” · Season 1, Episode 5

In this episode: Dexter Morgan (3), James Doakes (1), Angel Batista (1), Harry Morgan (1)

[Dexter is staring off into space at a crime scene]

[voiceover] I like to pretend I'm alone. Completely alone. Maybe post-apocalypse or plague ... whatever. No one left to act normal for. No need to hide who I really am. It would be ... freeing.

Stop grinning like a fucking psycho and get back to work!

GOfficer Gerard

Freedom's just another word for one more way to get fucked.

MMindy

So, are you going to go to the spring formal?

TDTeenage Dexter

Why would I want to do that?

[Hurt, Mindy leaves]

She wanted you to ask her to the dance, Dexter.

TDTeenage Dexter

That's not what she said.

Well, you have to learn their signals.

TDTeenage Dexter

Yeah, well, I don't really care about girls.

TDTeenage Dexter

I just like being alone.

But most normal people don't, and it's important that you seem normal.

TDTeenage Dexter

Even though I'm not.

Because you're not.

Don't go down that emotion road, just go down on her. She'll be distracted.

[Packing supplies for a kill] "Be prepared" – that's my motto. The Boy Scouts and I have that in common. Of course, there's no merit badge for tonight's outing.
