S5 E7Circle Us

[voiceover] That's either a saint or the most boring action figure I've ever seen.

So how do we find them?.

I´m not sure about "We." It´s not working right here. What I do, I do alone, I don´t need a partner.

[voiceover as he watches Lumen play with Harrison] Sometimes partners find us, and as much as we try to push them away, they work their way into our lives, regardless - until we finally realize how much we need them.

Nice watch.

My dad gave it to me when I was a teenager. It's water-resistant to 100 meters. I have no idea why I would ever need that, but it sure looks nice.

[Voiceover: If that's the watch that Lumen heard, I'll make sure it accompanies you to the bottom of the Atlantic.]

Saint Brigid circle us with your light, so that no darkness shall overcome our world.

S5 E8Take It

[during a seminar] We've lost touch with our instincts, with what we are. We have fallen from nature's grace. But WE SHALL BE DELIVERED! [The crowd cheers] It's time to tap into your primal selves and seize the power of instinct. We're gonna cut off those shackles that bind us to jobs we hate, people we don't love, lives that aren't worth living. We are going to [in unison with crowd] TAKE IT!

[voiceover] I've never been around so many people that make me feel normal.

CMCrowd member

[to Jordan Chase] Yeah! [turns to Dexter] YEAH!

[voiceover] Really normal.

You alright?

Three people are dead. Carlos Fuentes and two girls. No one's crying about Carlos.

Because he's a scumbag.

Yeah, he's a scumbag that I shot and killed.

And? What's the problem? Don't tell me that you feel bad about killing him.

I don't. That's the problem.

[voiceover] Jordan promises change. But he also accepts credit cards. [Answering his phone] Lumen?

Can you talk? Or are you about to have a major life revelation?

No, that came around 9:00am, when I realized that I really wanted a doughnut.

[Lumen and Dexter have just set up the kill room. Dexter is now putting up pictures of the other victims]

Cole's other victims. Why did you put their pictures up?

Cole needs to see what he's done.

What do you get out of all this?

I like knowing that the men who did this to you won't do it to anyone else.

This isn't about me.

You're standing here.

Look at all this. If you didn't know me you'd still be in this room. Boyd wasn't your first. You've been doing this a long time.

[Dexter and Lumen have Cole restrained in the kill room]

I'm going to take this gag out of your mouth; but if you make one sound I don't like I'm gonna cut your eyes out. Blink so I know you understand. [Cole blinks, so Dexter removes the gag]. We know about Boyd, and Dan the Dentist, and now you. Who were the others?

The guy who held a watch up to my ear? "Tick, tick, tick, that's the sound of your life running out."

CCole

[smirks, but doesn't say anything]

[holds a knife to Cole's throat] What are their names?

CCole

[whispers something]

What did he say?

CCole

[defiantly] Huey, Dewey, and Louie.

[Regags him, and then turns his head to the pictures of his victims] Look at the women, whose lives you destroyed. [Forces Cole's eyes open] Look. Death was the only kindness you showed them. [Dexter slices Cole's cheek and takes a sample of his blood, as Lumen watches with a mixture of fascination and horror. Picks up his knife] It's a shame that you can only die once. [He then looks at Lumen, who nods in approval. Dexter then stabs Cole in the heart. After a long pause] You said I've done this before, that's true. This is who I am. When I was a child my mother was murdered in front of me. It shattered me. I've done this ever since. Because, for the longest time it was the only way that I could feel ... unbroken. And then, Rita was killed, and none of this made sense any more. [Long pause] Until now. [He picks up the blood slide and holds it out to her]

[voiceover] Miguel couldn't, my father couldn't, can anyone live with the truth of what I am? [Lumen takes the blood slide] Is Lumen what will make me whole?

[LaGuerta is blaming Debra, instead of herself, for the shootout at the club]

Deb. I'm gonna do whatever it takes, to set the record straight.

I thought you were backing LaGuerta's story.

I didn't know what I was gonna do. I was stuck between a rock and my wife. But I decided, I'm backing you.

Might not go over to well at home.

You're flesh and blood to me. Like my kid sister, but better, because I actually like you.

[Touched] Damn.

It's okay.

Yeah, it's okay.

Is everything OK?

It's nothing important - just a little security glitch.

[Voiceover: Like your chief of security's head is in my luggage?]

S5 E9Teenage Wasteland

[voiceover] An hour on the treadmill and I came up empty, not a clue. The only upside is that I got in my cardio for the day. Jordan is one tough nut to crack.

You're one tough nut to crack, you know that Dexter?

[voiceover] I wish he'd stop doing that.
