"On the last victim," "I'd like to check and see If any refrigerated trucks" "Have been stolen In the last... week or so." "Refrigerated trucks Like ice-cream trucks?" "Um..." "No, not ice-cream trucks." "A refrigerated vehicle" "That could cause That kind of tissue damage," "A refrigerated truck That's mobile" "So he'll be harder to catch," "A refrigerated truck That might give us a lead." "That's very interesting, Very creative." "Let's keep looking For the witness, okay?" "We know that he or she Is out there." "The forensic evidence," "The interrupted cut proves That there was an eyewitness." "Now, somebody out there Saw something," "So let's concentrate On finding that person, okay?" "But..." "Just keep talking To all your hookers." "That's all for today." "What the fuck Was i supposed to say?" "The only reason I'm in here" "Is because the captain said They had to let me in." "But he didn't say They had to listen to you." "Well, right again." "So say adiós to my career." "I'm gonna die a meter maid." "Stop it." "Deb, there's another way." "Find the truck." "Excuse me, dexter..." "My office, please." "What the hell?" "What the fuck?" "Are you boning her?" "No." "Oh, my god!" "Deb, wait." "Shut up." "It had nothing to do With drugs." "L.t., this is a waste Of our damn time." "I think sergeant doakes Is right." "I read the other reports, all The other forensic analysis." "Everyone agrees The cokehead murders" "Had nothing to do With cocaine." "It was a crime of passion." "The murderer came to kill The woman, not the dealer." "He did him quick And got him out of the way." "But he sure as hell took his Sweet time slicing up that lady," "And you don't do that Unless you have a close," "Personal relationship With someone." "Probably an ex-boyfriend." "That's who i'd look for." "Okay." "It's a bit of a push," "But, sergeant, You should check it out." "I'm watching you, Motherfucker." "Jaworski's been Coming here for weeks..." "Likes to steal All the copper plumbing." "There's good money in that." "No security guards..." "That's good." "Fuck!" "Talk." "What do you mean?"

"Can you come by later," "You know, just for, Like, a little while?" "I mean, i'm really..." "All right." "What are you doing now?" "I'm just finishing up A little project," "But i'll come by later." "Okay, bye." "All in all, It was a good night." "One less amateur filmmaker Polluting the internet." "No way." "Give us a minute." "Hanging in there?" "This will teach me To tailgate." "Let's go over this again." "I'm all yours." "So all the ice trucks In miami..." "Bit of a coincidence, Don't you think?" "Sure, during business hours." "But this time of night, A truck like that sticks out." "And you followed it." "That's right." "You never saw the driver?" "Just high beams And a flying head." "So then he must have already had The head with him" "In the front seat." "That's weird." "Why would he keep it there?" "I don't know, so he could use A carpool lane?" "It just seems odd." "Your sister has This ice-truck theory," "And then here you are To back it up." "She's good, lieutenant." "You should give her a chance." "You know, You should call me maria." "But i'll tell you who's good..." "You are." "Doakes picked up the killer In the cokehead murders." "You were right." "It was her boyfriend." "Of course, Doakes still hates you." "Of course." "Tell me, dexter," "How did you get To be so smart, huh?" "Mm..." "Lots of sleep." "Is it okay if i fill out That report tomorrow?" "Sure thing." "You're tired." "Good night, lieutenant." "I'll catch you later." "Dex." "It's been a while." "I'm sorry." "I was worried." "I didn't know what to do." "I called in sick." "I mean..." "Are you okay?" "Yeah, i'm fine." "I was just..." "I'm sorry." "There was another... you know." "Oh." "Well, the kids slept over Next door." "Okay." "Would you like to come in?" "Okay." "Okay." "I don't want to lose you, Dex." "Okay, sure." "And..." "Well... i want you." "I mean..." "Oh." "Okay." "Thanks." "You're welcome." "Do you mind?" "Um, no." "It could be the kids." "Better get it, then." "Hello?" "Cody." "Cody, stop crying, Sweetie." "All right." "I'll come get you." "Cody just threw up All over colleen's couch." "I got to go get him." "Tell me we're okay." "Better than." "Okay." "Go be a good mom." "Okay, that was close." "I'll admit, making out With rita was..." "Interesting." "But if i don't keep a lid On this," "It could be the end of us." "I suppose i should be upset," "Even feel violated," "But i'm not." "No." "In fact, i think this is A friendly message," "Kind of like, "hey, want to play?"" "And, yes, i want to play." "I really, really do."
