Dexter Season 5 quotes

Dexter

[voiceover] Harry's right. I have to convince Lumen to do what I never could: to move on.

Any friend of Sugar's is a friend of mine.

Sugar?

Masuka

[laughs]

Dexter

[on Boyd] From the outside, a normal home is indistinguishable from the home of a monster who puts women in barrels.

Masuka

All together once again. One big happy family. Eh, Dexterino?

Dexter

[voiceover] Rainbows are an illusion, refracted light to make us think there's something there and there's really not. Is there darkness in Harrison or is it just my own fear being reflected back?

Lumen

Minneapolis.

Dexter

Yeah, I used some miles.

Lumen

Wow. You really want to get rid of me, don't you?

Dexter

I want you to get on with your life. Lumen... [Voiceover: She took the ticket. Maybe this is one problem I can check off the list. And maybe it'll snow this week.]

Dexter

Are you and Quinn...?

Debra

We're fuck buddies. That's it.

Dexter

You need Quinn for that?

Debra

I know it's insane. I know it's...wrong for a fuck-ton of reas... Will you please stop looking at me like that?

Dexter

It's your life, Deb. Just don't bring him around when Harrison's here.

Debra

What's that supposed to mean?

Dexter

Well, he's at an impressionable age. We don't know what might rub off on him.

I may have a job for you.

Really? And what would that be?

Looking into someone.

Who?

Guy I work with. Interested?

I don't know if I should be, considering who's sitting in front of me, making the offer.

What are you talking about? Have I ever fucked you over?

No, but LaGuerta just taught me there's always a first time. Look, Quinn, you fuck with the bull, you get the horn. You understand?

Yeah. Do you?

You got a name?

Dexter Morgan.

Dexter

[voiceover] Another part of my life packed away.

[to Harrison] Can you say "Bye-Bye daddy?"

Die-Die.

Did you hear that?

Dexter

He said "Die-Die".

Don´t be silly. he said "Bye-Bye". Harrison´s first words. He´s a good boy.

Dexter

[voiceover] I hope so.

Dexter

[voiceover] Lumen didn't witness her mother's murder, but she was born in blood like me. Some experiences are so big they change your DNA.

Dexter

I remember your first words: shoes. You were very girly once upon a time.

Debra

That's funny. I always remember my first words as being, 'Hurry the fuck up.'

Debra

What in the mother of fuck went on in here?

Masuka

I know exactly what happened. Two words: autoerotic mummification. See, Mr. Plastic Man shot Captain Bloody Underpants while Underpants was in the choke.

Lumen

Why do you have that in your purse?

Dexter

It's not a purse.

Lumen

I know you. What you are, deep down. Aside from your police job and your "extracurricular activities". You're a father. I saw the pictures out there. Three children?

Dexter

The two oldest are with their grandparents. Their dad's mom and dad.

Lumen

You have a son?

Dexter

Harrison. He just started talking, today. He's tremendous.

Lumen

It's just the two of you?

Dexter

And an Irish superhero nanny. I never thought my life would turn out like this.

Lumen

I had imagined a totally different life for myself too. I always did everything by the book, you know? Go, go, go. I never stopped to think. There was high school, and college, and graduate school. Owen. We were gonna get married at the house that I grew up in. On my wedding day I, I tried on the dress, and I looked at the window in the backyard where the aisle was, and I saw everything that that aisle was leading to. Babies, and matching dinnerware. Sunday barbecues. And I couldn't breathe. I had to get out of there, and find something ... more. Then, everything happened, and [pause] I actually thought "This is what I get. For trying to live my own life." Do you have any idea what I'm talking about?

Dexter

[quietly] A little.

Lumen

But tonight, I felt this like, this... peace. And it's because he's dead. [Pause, and then painfully] And I know that it's not gonna last. And when it wears of, I'm gonna have to find the rest of them. [tearfully] Because that's the only way that I'll find that peace again. I don't even have a name for what I'm feeling.

Dexter

[voiceover] I do. The Dark Passenger. I can't get revenge for Rita's death, but I can help Lumen avenge what was done to her. [Pause, and then aloud] How many more were there?
