Lumen: I look different don't I? Without my hands tied behind my back. But you recognize me, I can tell. [Dexter removes Tilden's gag]
Tilden: I never wanted to do any of it.
Lumen: Really?
Tilden: It-it wasn't me. It-it was Jordan. It's all Jordan. You know, he has this way...
Dexter: Of getting inside your head, getting you in touch your primal nature.
Tilden: He made me do things I never would have done.
Lumen: [Angry] No, [putting a finger on his head] you made me do things I never would have done. Ever. EVER!
Tilden: What do you people want? I can give you Jordan Chase.
Dexter: We've got Jordan Chase.
Tilden: Well, what do you want? Everybody wants something. I mean, that-that-that's what brought us to this fucking unfortunate situation. Am I right? I'm a banker. I can get money, lots of it. We can work this out, just tell me what's this gonna cost? Just give me a number!
Lumen: [Leans in close to whisper] Thirteen. [She smiles at him]
Tilden: No, I- (Dexter regags him)
Dexter: [Walks over to a table and picks a knife, voiceover] There's a first time for everything. A first step, a first word, a first kiss, a first kill. Somehow you know when the time is right. [He gives Lumen the knife, and then says aloud] Aim for the heart.
[Lumen stares at the pictures of the other victims for a while, before she closes her eyes in grief. She walks up to the table that Tilden is restrained on, and climbs on top of it. She then stabs him in the heart. She pants in horror for a few seconds, and then manages to control herself]

Lumen: Share something with her. What you did with her when you were her age.
Dexter: I killed the neighbor's dog
Lumen: Well don't tell her that.

Lumen: So how do we find them?.
Dexter: I´m not sure about "We." It´s not working right here. What I do, I do alone, I don´t need a partner.

Lumen: What else did Jordan say?
Dexter: [Examining his knives] That you were toxic. And dangerous, that I was on a self-destructive path.
Lumen: That sounds like a threat.
Dexter: [As Lumen comes into the room] He was trying to make me doubt [turns to look at her] you.
Lumen: [She is dressed in all black "serial-killer garb"] What do you think?
Dexter: [He stares at her, clearly finding her beautiful] You look...
Lumen: I look stupid don't I?
Dexter: No, no, no.
Lumen: You can tell me the truth.
Dexter: You look...perfect.
[Lumen enters the kill room, where Dexter is waiting and Alex Tilden is restrained]

Lumen: Why do you have that in your purse?
Dexter: It's not a purse.

Masuka: [on Rita´s body] I've imagined her naked plenty times, but never like this.

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

Masuka: Damn. Don't people just shoot each other any more?

Masuka: DNA report's from the coroner's office point to multiple perps.
Quinn: Do we have any names?
Masuka: No. What we do have are partial sequences from seriously degraded DNA. But the evidence confirms what we knew about Boyd Fowler; and also points with a high probability to Cole Harmon, Jordan Chase's head of security.
LaGuerta: As you know Cole Harmon was our original suspect in the case...
Dexter: [voiceover] Until I pointed them toward Boyd Fowler.
LaGuerta: He is now our main target again.
Dexter: [voiceover] A target you'll never hit. He's already been buried at sea.
[After the discovery of the DVD's showing the men raping and torturing the women, and looking at pictures of it.]

Masuka: He's got daddy's eyes.
Batista: ... and your penis size.

Masuka: The dragon lady represents the dualities of my inner warrior.
Debra: Or your inner idiot
Masuka: Hey, if you can't muster up some respect, I'm dropping the curtain.

Masuka: This man is a knight in shining armor. You should be polishing his lance. [awkward pause] I meant that metaphorically - not how it sounded.

Masuka: Tramp stamp. I think I'm in love.
Debra: If she's into needles, why don't you show her your dick?

Masuka: We all have our own ways of expressing ourselves. I have my ink, and you have your man boots.

Michael Angelo: Any friend of Sugar's is a friend of mine.
Deb: Sugar?
Masuka: [laughs]
