Jeremy Downs: Yeah, right. You're a killer?
Dexter Morgan: I'm empty... but I found a way to make it feel less bottomless.
Jeremy Downs: How?

Debra Morgan: How do you know?
Dexter Morgan: [pause] Because it is pathetic.

Sergeant James Doakes: You've been asking who's been calling. My mom lives here.
Debra Morgan: Did you forget your laundry?

Debra Morgan: I'm, what, your exit strategy?

Sergeant James Doakes: Shit! My sisters are here, too.
Debra Morgan: Fucking family reunion!
