"but you'll be missing with all your money, and everyone will assume... that you skipped the country." "luck is finally working with me." " that's the car right there that swiped me over on riverside." " seriously?" "fuck!" " hey, that's him!" "that's the prick." " who, me?" " you fucking hit my car!" "learn how to drive, you idiot."

"i remember the porch." "why, what is it?" " i've been here before." "aah!" "oh, god!" "he brought me here." " who did?" " the ice truck killer." "brian moser." " that was her name!" "laura moser." "she had two little boys." " dad, who the hell were you?" "i don't have time for this shit." " why are you even in here?" " because of arthur fucking mitchell." " wrong." " all right, i'm here because i didn't follow the code." "everything you taught me was to keep me out of here." " what else?" " what do you want me to say?" "i'm here because i lost it?" "yes. i fucking lost it." " on a fucking cop!" "like a fucking amateur." " fuck you!" "it's your number one rule, don't get caught." "they were gonna find him." "they were gonna find me with an unconscious man." " that's not why you lost it." "that's not why you're in here." " i couldn't just let them find him, goddamn it." "i have to be the one to kill him." "i have to know he's gone." "for my family." " exactly." "you can't think clearly because of them." "they've done this to you." " no, my dark passenger has done this to me." "it's ruining my life." " it is your life." " i don't want it to be." "i don't want it." " you said you had something?" " nothing good." "been back-checking stan beaudry's trucking routes, dug up a couple of past employers." "they put him 3,000 miles away from pittsburgh in '89 and sacramento in '92." " and beaudry's only been connected to a prostitute kill." "nothing ritualized about it." " i told matthews it was too soon to release beaudry to the press." "if he's not our guy, we're gonna look like fools." " i knew it wasn't beaudry." "what?" "i'm smarter than the rest of you." " then how do you explain trinity's dna showing up in beaudry's rig and shack?" " yeah, smart man." " well, i can't... yet." " sergeant, you find something?" " i spoke with bloomington homicide." "i asked about the dates on this postmark." "summer of '92, there was a bathtub murder, a jumper, and a bludgeoning." " i see a big "but" on your face." "what?" " guy said it was the worst month of his life." "in addition to those murders, there was a ten-year-old boy missing five days prior to the bathtub kill." " last week, that ten-year-old boy went missing here." " scott smith." " exactly." "so i called a few cities." " ten-year-old boys missing?" " every time." "five days before each cycle began." " and lundy was only looking at homicides, not missing persons." " get scott smith down here." "let's check every trinity city for missing ten-year-olds." "we may be looking at a whole new pattern." " "brian and... dexter moser"?" " dexter morgan?" " yeah." " it's your lucky day." " yeah. it feels like it." " we're outta bunks for the night." " there's a shot arthur's still unconscious." "bummer." " yeah, well, budget cuts are gettin' worse and worse." "but since you're miami metro, we figured we could at least do you the favor of calling your wife, have her come pick you up." " my wife?" "how is it i can kill people and feel no regret... but disappointing rita makes me feel like the scum of the earth?" "i'm sorry." " i know." " i just had a... bad day and... let it get to me, i guess." " first it was smashing that light, which was weird." "and then you punched elliot, which i actually liked." "but now you..." "pick a fight with a sheriff?" "i don't understand." "i want to, but..." " i wish i could explain." " try." "please." " sometimes i'm..." "just goin' along, and everything seems okay, and then this... darkness creeps in, and it takes over." " makes you sound crazy." " maybe i am." " no." "no, i don't believe that." " i'll be right behind you." "Â¶ Â¶ shit." " well, you actually think dad'll let you go to the winter prom?" " he doesn't have to know." " we can figure something out." " arthur!" "we didn't know when to expect you  bring me your jewelry- gold, silver, anything with a stone in it." "and all the cash in your purse." " why?" "what's wrong?" " and your wedding ring." " no. this is mine." "arthur!" " hey!" " don't, jonah, no!" "okay." " daddy, what's happening?" " i need the money you keep behind your headboard." "don't pretend." "i know it's there!" " no, daddy-daddy, why- - the silver pendant i gave you." "now!" " what the hell is goin' on?" "what did you do?" " arthur, please, no!" " you're lucky i don't pull the fillings out of your teeth!" "don't ever question me!" "i gave you everything you have." "i will take it all away!" "collect your things." "i've got some business to attend to." " other than stealing from your family?" " someone stole something from me." "and i'm gonna find him." " we-we should just go." "leave and never come back." " he'll find us." " this-this is our chance." "he's-he's in trouble." "he's insane." "mom!" " what?" " please." " we'll live in fear." " we already do." " debra." "oh, sorry." "detective morgan." "have a seat." " thanks for your time, deputy chief." "i know you're busy." "i need to talk to you about a case." "it was one of my father's old cases from a long time ago." "and you're the only one still around from those days." " suddenly i feel ancient." " look, it was a quadruple homicide... out at the ports." " in a shipping container." " you were there?" " no. wasn't my case." "but i remember harry's face when he came back from it." "said he'd never seen so much blood." " my dad said dexter's parents died in a car accident." "that's not true, is it?" " no." " my father's c.i., laura moser, was murdered in that shipping container." "she had two boys." "one of those boys was dexter?" "please tell me the truth." " harry adopted him." "the other boy was too damaged by the incident." "no shit." "he grew up to be the ice truck killer." "you knew." " debra, your father wanted to protect you." "he didn't want either one of you to ever know." "and you both turned out pretty damn well." "so i think he made the right call." " yeah?" "well, i know now." "what the hell am i supposed to do with this?" " you keep it to yourself." " oh, fuck!" "jesus!" "quinn, what?" "i'll be right there." " we should go to the keys tomorrow." "for our honeymoon." " no, i'm not sure that's  you can fly down in the morning." "i'll follow you after work." "have a spa day. indulge." "please?" " dexter, uh..." " look, i know you're upset." "you have every right to be." "you had to pick up another husband from jail." " y-you think i'm upset because you're like paul?" " i'm worse." "i know." " dexter." "whenever... they picked up paul, it was a relief." "and life got easier." "without you... you're the most important person in our lives." "what's upsetting me is the idea of losing you." "you have your demons." "i accept that." "because i know that you don't have to be a slave to them." " i wish that were true." " it is." "i know you." "better than you know yourself." "you can conquer whatever darkness there is in you." "i know you can." " i want to be that man." " you already are." " please." "please fly to the keys tomorrow morning." "i wanna meet you." "truly, there's nowhere i'd rather be." " trinity sure went through a lot of effort to make us think that beaudry was our guy." " planting dna." "planting lundy's murder books." " have we heard back from any more homicide departments?" " almost every town." "ten-year-old boys missing in all of them." "quinn is talking to scott smith now." " no, i'm not." "i called in someone who knows about being kidnapped." " someone took me once too... without my permission." " were you scared?" " most scared i've ever been in my life." "and..." "as much as i want to forget, there are all these little things i remember." "the way his breath smelled like medicine." " the bad man." "used medicine on me." "when i was getting in the van." " do you remember any little things about the van?" " it was empty." "except for some papers." "there was a picture on it." " do you remember what it looked like?" " uh..." " we're looking for this logo." "we've got something." "we walked cadaver dogs over the whole area." "they led us to this spot, and the guys started digging." " they found something buried under the patio." " all right, hold up." "male victim." "approximate age..." "ten years old." "badly decomposed." "looks to be wearing pajamas." " they found scott smith wearing pajamas." " i'll call judge morales at home, have her get a warrant started." " i'll get the names of everyone who volunteered on this build." " make it everyone who volunteered for four walls nationwide." "cross-check 'em with trinity's cities." "we'll find trinity's real name, then we'll take this motherfucker down." " you're a little piggy, dexter morgan." ""debra morgan."" "debra morgan!" "fucking debra!" " astor and cody, disneyworld awaits." "they'll be safe there with mickey, minnie, and their goofy grandparents." "now for the rest of my family." "found it!" "oh..." " wish i could go with you right now." " me too." " i just got a few loose ends to tie up at work, and i'll see you tonight." " can't wait." " me either." "can't wait to be with my family." "can't wait to be done with arthur mitchell." "i just need a clue where he's headed." "receipts." "drug store." "auto shop estimate." "dry cleaner, groceries, gas." "no bus, train, or plane tickets." "only one other place i can check." " mr. butler, what  jonah, have you seen your father?" " yeah, he blew through here last night looking for anything he could sell." " jonah!" "who is-kyle." " he's asking about dad." " can you tell me what's going on?" " i'm not sure." " i hope he stays gone this time." " he took... everything." " it's gonna be okay." "i promise." "i'll make sure you get arthur's money." "did he say where he was headed?" " he never does." " did he take his tools... pack a bag?" "does he have a passport?" " i don't know." "when we got up this morning, he was gone." " shit." " aah!" " get down!" "down on the ground!" " we create our own destiny every day we live." " freeze!" "hands up." " forensics." " all right." " dexter." "where's your flak jacket?" " i left it in the car." "do you see this?" " cabron!" "and over here... look." "it's a framing hammer." " i'll get masuka in here, get some dna." "what?" " how'd you get here so fast?" " word's everywhere." "you found trinity." " yeah, the four walls national database led us to arthur mitchell." "can you believe that fucking monster had a family?" "and he abandoned them?" " he's gone?" " yeah, he emptied out his bank accounts and disappeared." "he's probably halfway around the world by now." " probably." " deb, what's  why don't you get your fucking flak jacket so everyone knows you're one of us?" " hey... it's the fucking karate kid." " yeah, about that, uh..." " you pull that shit again, next time i won't be the one who's on my ass." " this is their future, dexter." "we both know it's inevitable." " no. arthur abandoned his family." "i would never do that." " arthur left his family too late." "the damage was already done." "you can still save your family." " by leaving them?" " you'll always need someone on your table." "if you stay, sooner or later, you'll be caught, and they'll pay a terrible price for what you've done." "because long after you're executed... they'll still have to go through life with your name branded across their foreheads." " dex." "i have something to tell you." "and maybe i shouldn't." "i don't know." " okay." " i found another c.i. dad was sleeping with." "a woman named laura moser." " harry was right." "this is it." " does that name mean anything to you?" " should it?" " it doesn't?" "look, she died, but she left behind two little boys." "and one of those little boys was you." "laura moser is your biological mother." " don't say the rest." "don't know it." " the other little boy, your brother, was named brian." "brian moser." "the ice truck killer." " she knows who i really am." "it's over." " i wasn't gonna tell you, but then i saw trinity's family, and i thought that it's better for you to know the truth." " the truth?" "the truth... that's a lot to take in." " i know." " and that's all she knows?" "you think brian knew about me?" " i don't know." " he must have glommed onto you as a way to... get to me." "don't you see, it wasn't your fault." "he wasn't your fault." "if i'd never been in your life  fuck you." " fuck me?" " if you hadn't been in my life, i wouldn't be who i am." "you've given me confidence and support." "and... you've been the one constant- the one constantly good thing in my life." " i've been good for her." "and rita says i'm good for her and the kids." "no one would ever say that about arthur." "maybe harry's wrong." "maybe things could turn out differently for me." " morgan." "debra morgan." "need you inside." " i'll be right there." " i love you." " i'm so thankful." "the mustang." "arthur brought it in two days ago." "should have known he wouldn't leave it behind." " here." "take the rest of this." " mr. mitchell, this gonna be nice." " ah, it's beautiful work, julio."

" building on the work of one of your own." " special agent lundy." " fuck yes, special agent lundy." "he told you guys- - it's been a long day." " no disrespect, but she's right." " i agree." "in retrospect, the bureau should have proceeded differently." " well, your retrospect cost a man his life." " we'll be taking over from here." " so after we do all the heavy lifting  you get all the credit." " i'm sure they're grateful for all your hard work." " we are." "motherfuck." " i know." "but it is what it is."
