TV show quotes
Hey, you know anything about wedding bands?
Yeah, wedding rings and nuclear fission are my secret specialties.
Thanks. [leaves]
Your brother's kind of a dweeb, huh?
You say anything more about my brother and I will kick your fucking nuts down your throat.
[laughs] That doesn't even make any sense.
You ever drop a quart of milk? Watch it spread over the whole kitchen floor? The mess it makes?
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.
Dex, after 14 years of filing briefs, trying cases, and dealing with bullshit, this is all going to look nice and neat in comparison.
[voiceover] I tell Miguel to be inconspicuous, and what does he do? He shows up looking like the Unabomber. I've got my work cut out for me.
I asked him for menu suggestions - do you know what he says?
I don't know.
Steak. He says steak. Yeah, that's great, Dexter. That's really great. We'll start with a steak appetizer, followed by steak salad, followed, of course, by a steak. And then, of course, it'll all be topped off by a steak fucking cake.
You were wrong. It went well.
Maybe. Who knows?
You can't admit it. He did good.
That was never the issue, Dex - I was only thinking about you.
Of course.
You've set something in motion here. Everything Miguel does from now on is connected to you. It's a lot of responsibility, teaching him what you just did. A heavy burden... It was too much for me to bear. I hope you're a stronger man.
[voiceover] Today I wake up, kiss the wife-to-be, feed the step-kids-to-be, dress myself in the usual pants, shirt ... and pretense.
[sobbing] When you've been married as long as we have, you know when your husband's lying.
[voiceover] Something to look forward to.
Skinner's had him for 24 hours. How long do you think he can hold out?
Well, the M.E.'s report on the other victims suggests that the Skinner starts slow, probably to build fear. Anton's a big guy, lot of skin. [Debra looking horrified] ... That's meant to be comforting.
You know, someone, a good friend, actually, told me I had a big wall around me. I thought it made me a better cop. I don't think it did.
[sees Astor fast asleep at Debra's] What'd you use on her, chloroform?
A hooker is a terrible thing to waste.
[In Miguel's office, playing PC shooting game]
[voiceover] It's all about strategy. Out-maneuvering the opposition, bending him to your will.
What are you doing in my office, Dex?
Winning.
[in her wedding dress] I feel like Cinderella ... except for the whole Disney-virgin thing.
Don't worry. No one will know Prince Charming knocked you up before the ball.
I know what it is to want to re-balance an unbalanced world. But it's just unbalanced, Angel, that's it. Some doors should stay shut. You open it, it's too easy to walk through it a second time.
I'll do what I want to whom I want, to whoever I want! Count on it!
