Debra Morgan: No weapon on the premises. Vince Masuka: The coroner can suck my uncircumcised dick if he doesn't rule this a homicide! Debra Morgan: That's way TMI, Masuka.

	Season 3 / Episode 12: - Do You Take Dexter Morgan? George King: [starring at Dexter, whistling] Dexter Morgan: [voiceover] I know that look. I've had that look. He likes control. Needs it. So I'll take it away from him. Dexter Morgan: [calmly] I killed Freebo. Sorry 'bout that. Dexter Morgan: I tied him up, not unlike this. Stabbed him in the left carotid artery. Used his 16-Inch carbon steel bone saw to separate his limbs. George King: [approaches Dexter immediately] I don't believe you! Dexter Morgan: Divided them equally Amongst six biodegradable trash bags, which are long gone now Carried north on the gulf stream. George King: You're lying. Dexter Morgan: Usually, not now- no point. George King: Why would you have done such a thing? Dexter Morgan: Oh I have my excuses and justifications, but really I just... need to. Like you. You have your excuses, finding Freebo, getting your money. But you know he's dead. You know there's no money, so really you're just... a killer. A monster. The stuff of nightmares. George King: I could kill you now. Dexter Morgan: If you can convince yourself I'm lying, that you need to skin me to get information out of me. George King: You are lying. You do know where he is. Dexter Morgan: Miguel Prado tell you that? George King: [realizing he's been played] Dexter Morgan: He wanted me dead. So he used you. He played on your obsession.

	Season 3 / Episode 11: - I Had a Dream Dexter Morgan: Adios, amigo.
	Season 3 / Episode 10: - Go Your Own Way Dexter Morgan: [Thinking to himself] Just what I ordered: feigned civility with a heaping side of betrayal. It's becoming more and more clear that I'm going to have to deal with Miguel... Option one: I kill him. But he's too high profile. A popular A.D.A. disappears. The manhunt would be endless. Everyone he knows would be scrutinized. And that includes me. He's also my best man. I'd be expected to grieve... Option two: get him the hell out of my life. But its not that simple. He taught me how to golf. I taught him how to kill. I'm responsible if he takes another innocent life... So much for option two. He won't let our partnership dissolve. He's trying to get me under his thumb. And he's using Rita to do it. It's working... Which leaves option three: get him under MY thumb and keep him there.
	Season 3 / Episode 8: - The Damage A Man Can Do Dexter Morgan: Did you ever drop a quart of milk and watch it spill out all over the floor? Miguel Prado: Yeah. Dexter Morgan: There's six quarts of blood in the human body. This isn't going to be pretty.
	Season 3 / Episode 7: - Easy As Pie Angel Batista: How much coffee have you had? Debra Morgan: A metric fuck-ton.
	Season 3 / Episode 5: - Turning Biminese Angel Batista: There's this cold case I'm looking at. A dead John. Now when you were working vice did you bust the same places over and over again? Debra Morgan: Uh, not really. Most guys are regulars so word gets out quick if a place is hot. So we move the decoys around [Masuka approaches] But if you really want to know about paying for sex you should talk to Masuka. Angel Batista: Hey Vince, hold up. Did you get a chance to look at the Sheriff's Department forensics regarding their vic? Vince Masuka: I fucking would if they'd fucking send it. I've called four fucking times! Debra Morgan: Man, somebody needs a hug! I'd offer but I don't know what I'd catch! Vince Masuka: Can I go now? Debra Morgan: You know, I can take inappropriate Masuka, I can take porn loving Masuka, I can even take flatulent Masuka, but this dress shoe wearing, please and thank you zombie Masuka is fucking creeping me out! Vince Masuka: Maybe I'm realizing no one around here is my friend. The only reason you people even acknowledge me is when you want something. Angel Batista: That's not true. We put you on our bowling team! Vince Masuka: Only because you wanted to keep everyone's handicap higher to sandbag the other teams. Angel Batista: Okay, that's true but... Vince Masuka: [interrupts] Not one person read my paper. Not one fucking person showed up at the conference I spoke at. Debra Morgan: This is about yor stupid paper? Vince Masuka: You guys just don't get it. You hurt my feelings.
	Season 3 / Episode 5: - Turning Biminese Ramon Prado: I was also hoping I could speak with a couple of your previous witnesses. Debra Morgan: Speak with? As in we didn't do it right the first time? Ramon Prado: Cases evolve. Witnesses change their stories, junior personnel, they make mistakes. Ramon Prado: No disrespect. Joey Quinn: Oh, whoa! Actually that's a lot of disrespect. You've come into our house twice, you not only insult our police work, now you're insulting one of the most dedicated officers I've ever partnered with Joey Quinn: Yes, you. It's bullshit, my man! Ramon Prado: Let's not lose sight of the fact that we want the same thing here. To find whoever is responsible for these murders. Vince Masuka: Uh, there is one slight problem. Your case has nothing to do with our case. Angel Batista: The vic wasn't skinned? Vince Masuka: Not like our previous victims. There were minute traces of papillary and reticular... Angel Batista: [quietly to Masuka] English. Vince Masuka: Someone dug out a tattoo from the back of her neck. Post mortem. Which is another reason why I don't think we're looking at the same killer. It's all right here in the County Medical Examiner's Report. Ramon Prado: That's your opinion. My lab thinks differently. Angel Batista: Let me see that! Ramon Prado: You're not taking this seriously are you? Debra Morgan: In a fucking heartbeat! Do you know how many times Vince Masuka's been published? Angel Batista: He's our lead forensic investigator. And there's no one better. Ramon Prado: Our victim was strangled, the same as yours. Vince Masuka: Petechial hemorrhaging in the eyes and bruising would lead one to conclude strangulation. Unless you're me. You were so busy playing hide the sausage with the M.E.'s report you were hoping I'd miss the cotton fibers in the nose and airways. Your victim was smothered. That's not opinion, that's science. And science is one cold hearted bitch with a 14 inch strap on! Debra Morgan: And he's back!
	Season 3 / Episode 3: - The Lion Sleeps Tonight Dexter Morgan: Rita's pregnant. Debra Morgan: Say it again. Dexter Morgan: Rita's pregnant. Debra Morgan: You're lying.

Dexter Morgan: I've never heard it described in quite those words before, but yeah.
	Season 3 / Episode 3: - The Lion Sleeps Tonight Dexter Morgan: What else did the doctor say? Rita Bennett: He asked me a million questions about my medical history.

	Season 3 / Episode 3: - The Lion Sleeps Tonight Vince Masuka: [finds his article in Quinn's trash] What is that? Joey Quinn: Oh, uh... Vince Masuka: You stuck a piece of chewing gum on it? Joey Quinn: Uh, I'm sorry. Vince Masuka: This is a deliberate insult against me and my people. Joey Quinn: C'mon, c'mon... Vince Masuka: [storms off] Asswipe. Joey Quinn: [to Batista] Who the fuck are his people? Angel Batista: I don't know. Little scientists, I guess.
