S2 E8Morning Comes

[voiceover] Lila almost had me believing it was possible. To change, to become something else – as if that ever really happens. I've always known what I am. [pulls on gloves] If the glove fits ...

[voiceover] A secret cabin in the middle of the Everglades? What more could a re-dedicated serial killer ask for?

It's one thing to fuck with me another to fuck with [pauses] my ex-girlfriend who hates me. The Lila experiment is officially over.

S2 E9Resistance Is Futile

[on Lila] She had me fighting with myself the whole time. All that self-reflection is unhealthy.

[after a disturbing dream] Nice. My subconscious isn't even bothering with symbolism.

[to Rita] I'm sorry. I feel ... such regret, which is rare for me. Not that I don't mess up, I do, just never so stupendously. I had you, and them; I had us. So much to have, and to just demolish it. I honestly thought I was smarter than that. Rude awakening.

I have to get to Jiminez, but a dead man tells no tales. A drunk, unstable woman very well may.

Is it over with Lila?

Yes, absolutely, completely over. If I never see her again it will be too soon.

Jesus Christ, Morgan. Jesus fucking Christ. You're the Bay Harbor Butcher.

I really hate that name.

Shut the fuck up. Let's get this over with. [tosses handcuffs] Put 'em on.

[Dexter hesitates]

Morgan, you're done. Give it up.

Would you, in my position?

I wouldn't be in your position, you sick fuck.

You sure about that? You might want to check with Lundy.

S2 E10There's Something About Harry

Why couldn't you just leave me to do my work in peace? Why'd you have to go and ruin everything?

You're a killer. I catch killers.

So do I. I caught you.

I'm not a killer.

[chuckles] You are. That's why you've always known what I am. That's why you have more officer-related shootings than anybody else. Only I don't fuck with you when you shoot somebody. Why couldn't you pay me the same professional courtesy?

There's nothing professional about what you do. I kill when I have to, on the job.

Oh, so it's okay to take a life as long as you get a paycheck for it?

My code requires a higher standard of proof than your city's laws, at zero cost to the taxpayer. If you ask me, I'm a bargain.
