Dexter quotes

Brian

[To Dexter] Wouldn't it have been more fun to kill her than fuck her?

Jonah

After Rita Morgan died, Kyle Butler's face was all over the news as her grieving husband. That's when we realized Kyle Butler was actually Dexter Morgan.

Dexter

No one connected the dots for the FBI.

Jonah

We talked about it, but decided as a family you tried to help us. So we tried to help you.

Jonah

Get the fuck out of my house.

Dexter

Show me where it happened, Jonah. Your father killed your mother here, on this staircase?

Jonah

Police can be here in three minutes.

Dexter

Here is where her body was, and here is where you cleaned up your mother's blood.

Jonah

You're a sick fuck, you know that?

Dexter

Where'd you fight your father off? It was here, right? When you took the weapon from him and hit him - chasing him off?

Jonah

Yeah

Dexter

Swinging at him the whole time.

Jonah

Yeah, I was. Yeah.

Dexter

If that were true, there'd be blood on the wall, and on the ceiling here. But there's no spatter here.

Jonah

Hey, that's because I cleaned it up. Now go!

Dexter

With bleach?

Jonah

Yes.

Dexter

Not on this wall - because there was no blood on this wall, because your father was never here. I know for a fact that Trinity did not kill anyone in this house.

Jonah

Is that because you killed him?

Dexter

Yes - just like you killed your mother and your sister.

Brian

Why do you wake up your victims when they're on your table?

Dexter

I want them to know what they've done.

Brian

Bullshit! You like to watch the light go out of their eyes.

Dexter

[To Brian] How do you dispose of a body when you're miles from the ocean?

Debra

Well, look what the fucking cat dragged in.

Dexter

The cat also brought coffee and doughnuts.

Debra

[To Dexter] Everyone thinks I gave you a week off in the middle of this DDK shit-storm, which is only slightly better than them knowing that I didn't give you a week off!

Debra

Why do you have a pen from the Shady Lane Motel at Kearney, Nebraska?

Dexter

Must have picked it up somewhere.

Debra

Yeah, at the Shady Lane Motel in Kearney, Nebraska.

Debra

[To Dexter] I'll fuck Masuka if this isn't our guy.

Travis

I remember, I came to your office. I brought you the John the Revelator sword.

Yeah, you'd stolen it. University blamed me, and they fired me.

Travis

I told you we needed it because we are the two witnesses from Revelation 11.

And I told you, you were delusional and needed help.

Travis

I convinced you, I made you see that we are the chosen ones. I proved it to you that you couldn't be hurt.

You stabbed me with the sword three years ago.

Travis

And it couldn't pierce your flesh.

[To Travis] You killed me, Travis, and then you stuck me in the freezer.

Dexter

I should have never listened to Brother Sam.

Harry

He was right about one thing - if you put your faith in the wrong thing...

Dexter

It can really fuck you up. It was a mistake to put my faith in Travis. From now on, I'm only putting my faith in myself.

So, the game is about homicide. And I know there's, like, a million video games out there about that. But the secret to this game is, and I haven't even told Jamie this yet, but in my game, you can be the serial killer.

Dexter

What?

See, you have these character choices. You can be Dahmer, Jack the Ripper, the Bay Harbour Butcher.

Dexter

[Voiceover: I am the Bay Harbour Butcher.]

From what I do know about you, you feel things very deeply. Like your bond with Dexter. Where do you think that sterns from?

Debra

Maybe because he's the only guy in my life that I haven't dumped, or cheated on or...isn't dead.

Is it possible that your feelings for Dexter are the reason that you've chosen men in the past who have been either inappropriate or unavailable?

Debra

Because they're what? Not Dexter? That's insane.

Is it?

Debra

He's my brother.

Yet you're not biologically related.

Debra

So?

It would be understandable; given the past traumas the two of you have shared, for you to develop complex feelings for him.

Debra

Why the fuck are we even talking about this?

You mentioned Dexter. He comes up in these sessions a lot. Aren't you curious as to why that is?

Debra

He's a huge part of my life. That's it. End of story.

You getting upset?

Debra

Fuck, yes, I'm getting upset, because you're making it sound like I want to...be with him or something.

Well, do you?

Debra

Look, I love my brother, but I am sure as shit not in love with my brother, if that's what you're getting at. We're done here.

You were right. I told him. I fucking told my brother that I love him and he said I love you back. Not me too, or something like that. He actually said I love you.

Wow. It's big, isn't it?

Yeah, I don't think he understood that I'm actually in love with him, but he still said the actual words for the first time.

So what do you think it means?

I don't know what the fuck it means. That's why I'm here. Is this is just horribly wrong?

Does it feel wrong?

It makes my whole life -- every man I've ever loved makes sense. It's like I've always been looking for someone like Dexter, or someone who's the opposite of Dexter, as a way to avoid the fact that I'm in love with him. It's just clear to me. I want it to be clear to him. I want him to understand.
