I've lived in darkness a long time. Over the years, my eyes adjusted until the dark became my world and I could see. But then Rudy turned on the light. He flooded my memory and now I'm blind.

Dexter: See you've been benched.
Deb: LaGuerta's just jealous the Ice Truck Killer fucked me instead of her.
Dexter: Wow, you're chipper.

Mack: (hands Dexter two tranquilizer guns) So which will it be?
Dexter: Both.
Mack: Excellent.

Mack: So gators giving you trouble, Dex?
Dexter: They, uh, ate my puppy.

Lundy: First report from the field had these parts as coming from one body.

Lundy: Actually it's two.

Dexter: So you're single?
Brunette: (hesitates) Yeah...
Dexter: Makes it tougher to afford those big-ticket items, like cars and... houses. You rent an apartment?

Dexter: Tell me about it. No pets though, right?
Brunette: Is this a come-on? Because it's a little weird.
Dexter: Must be why I'm still single. (leaves abruptly)

Masuka: Say it.
Dexter: (sighs) You're my daddy?
Masuka: Sounds weird when you say it.

Angel: You know, Pasquale is just caught in a cycle of reaction. She's not co-creating her own reality.
Dexter: You know those words don't actually mean anything, right?

I think this is a friendly message like, "Hey! wanna play?" and yes I wanna play. I really really do.
