Cops, another community I'm not part of.
S4 E3Blinded By The Light
This Dexter guy. First of all who the fuck is named Dexter? Did his parents know he was going to be a fucking egghead?
[Voiceover] Great - security lights. Just what every serial killer needs.
[To Andy] You're gonna stop breaking things, stop rolling cars down the street. Stop everything you've been doing. If you so much as touch another window, I will come back here, and I will leave with your head in a bag. I already have the bag.
S4 E4Dex Takes a Holiday
[Dexter is about to kill Zoey Kruger, a police officer who murdered her family]
ZKZoey Kruger
You can't hide what you are.
Oh, I can. I'm better at it than you.
ZKZoey Kruger
You will choose your life over theirs.
I won't. I'd rather risk with them knowing the truth ... [Dexter stops talking, thinking] than losing them. [emotionally] I don't want to lose them. I don't.
ZKZoey Kruger
You gonna rape and kill me?
What is it with you and rape? No one's raping anyone. Killing on the other hand...
[Last words to Frank Lundy] Stay with me.
[Voiceover] Everyone needs a vacation. In my case, it's time off for bad behavior. But I intend to make the most of this family trip...that they're taking without me.
[Voiceover] Three days. 72 precious hours to recharge my batteries. 'Course Rita doesn't know I'll be recharging with another woman.
[Voiceover] As a cop, Zoey's been to plenty of crime scenes. She knows what should be there, and what shouldn't. No prints on the blood of the door, which means she wore gloves. She was still wearing gloves when she shot herself. But they were gone when the EMT's arrived.
Where'd you leave those gloves, Zoey?
Easier to think here, isn't it? Only 52 hours of freedom left. You sure chose an interesting person to spend it on.
Don't read anything into it. Zoey was a challenge, that's all.
A woman who wiped out her own family in order to be free.
She should've shot herself instead of her husband and child.
Yeah. Except that doesn't get her free, just dead.
Well, she had other options.
Alimony, visitation, trading off holidays. There go your weekends.
Fine, she could've moved away.
And forfeit her job? Her home? Her only option was to make her vacation from her family as permanent as possible.
There are always alternatives.
Why do you think Trinity's been so successful?
He travels a lot. Stays on the move.
He doesn't have a family.
Well, I do.
Miss them yet?
S4 E5Dirty Harry
It doesn't matter what I do, what I choose. I'm what's wrong!
[After Rita demands to know what's inside Dexter's "tools" suitcase, which is revealed to be a gun]
It was Harry's. I wasn't comfortable having it now with the kids, so I kept it here.
See? I have nothing to hide ...
[voiceover] ... except for the syringes, scalpels and bonesaws hidden in that secret drawer underneath.
[going after Trinity] It's almost poetic. One serial killer ending the 30-year reign of another.
DDebra
Yesterday I had Lundy and Anton and now they are gone because of me.
You didn't do anything wrong.
DDebra
It doesn't matter what I do, doesn't matter what I choose. I am what's wrong. And there is nothing I can do about it. If I'm not hurting myself, I'm hurting everyone around me. And there is nothing I can do about it. I am... I am broken!
You are not. I am
[Dexter and Debra are standing where she and Lundy were shot]
You can't even see our blood. It's like it never happened.
Deb?
What the fuck's your problem?
I got here as fast as I could.
You have everything, and you're doing your goddamn best to throw it all away.
[sighs] Rita told you about the apartment?
What the fuck were you thinking? You have to make this right.
I'm not sure I know how.
You figure it out. I'm the fuck-up in the family. Not you.
Don't say that.
You have a choice. To be a good husband. To be a good father.
I know. It's just... sometimes I feel trapped.
By what? Three kids? A wife who adores you? Yesterday, I had Lundy and Anton. And now they're gone because of me.
You didn't do anything wrong.
It doesn't matter what I do. Or what I choose. I'm what's wrong! There's nothing I can do about it. If I'm not hurting myself, I'm hurting everyone around me. There's nothing I can do about it. [voice cracking] I'm... I'm broken!!
No, you're not... I am. [reaching for her] Why don't we go back to the house-
Don't! Don't! [sobbing] I need to be here! Where Lundy died. I can't do a fucking thing about it! [breaks down in Dexter's arms]
[voiceover] My sister doesn't deserve to be in this kind of pain. But I know who does.
S4 E6If I Had a Hammer

You're a fucking cop for Christ's sake. You piss people off for a living.
