- Det. Debra Morgan: The vigilante: she has someone in her life, a guy who's helping her, someone that would do anything and everything for her.
- Dexter Morgan: How do you know that?
- Det. Debra Morgan: Honestly, I don't know, but what they're doing takes devotion. To kill someone together, that's pretty serious shit!
- Dexter Morgan: [thinking] Is that what Lumen and I have, serious shit?
- Det. Debra Morgan: He's risking his life. He's putting everything on the line to make what happened to her... right. As crazy as that sounds, what word you use to describe that but "love"?
- [Dexter frowns and Debra sadly laughs]
- Det. Debra Morgan: It's pretty fucked up, isn't it?
- Dexter Morgan: Yeah... Pretty fucked up...
- Det. Debra Morgan: Kind of beautiful too...
- Dexter Morgan: [narrating] Is this the only kind of love I'll ever find? The kind that ends in blood?

- Jordan Chase: [greeting] Detectives...
- Det. Debra Morgan: We appreciate you fitting us in. We wanted to thank you for your phone call regarding Alex Tilden. It was really helpful.
- Jordan Chase: That's good to hear.
- Det. Debra Morgan: We followed up immediately. We went to his house, but it looked like we had just missed him.
- Jordan Chase: Oh, that's unfortunate.
- Det. Debra Morgan: Yeah, it is, because he seems to have disappeared off the face of the earth.
- Det. Joseph 'Joey' Quinn: There aren't many women like you. I know that. You're more like... a guy.
- Det. Debra Morgan: A guy?
- Det. Joseph 'Joey' Quinn: You don't play games, where I have to figure out what you're really thinking. You just say it. Usually with a lot of really filthy words that I've never heard before.

- Dexter Morgan: [thinking while following blood trail] Emily was killed with two blows. Lumen was here, multiple foot prints in the blood. A scuffle. More blood. Not from Emily, leading out. She was running. She's putting up a fight.
- Dexter Morgan: [under his breath] Lumen!
