Dexter Quote

Dexter: I'm going to take this gag out of your mouth; but if you make one sound I don't like I'm gonna cut your eyes out. Blink so I know you understand. [Cole blinks, so Dexter removes the gag]. We know about Boyd, and Dan the Dentist, and now you. Who were the others?
Lumen: The guy who held a watch up to my ear? "Tick, tick, tick, that's the sound of your life running out."
Cole: [smirks, but doesn't say anything]
Dexter: [holds a knife to Cole's throat] What are their names?
Cole: [whispers something]
Lumen: What did he say?
Cole: [defiantly] Huey, Dewey, and Louie.
Dexter: [Regags him, and then turns his head to the pictures of his victims] Look at the women, whose lives you destroyed. [Forces Cole's eyes open] Look. Death was the only kindness you showed them. [Dexter slices Cole's cheek and takes a sample of his blood, as Lumen watches with a mixture of fascination and horror. Picks up his knife] It's a shame that you can only die once. [He then looks at Lumen, who nods in approval. Dexter then stabs Cole in the heart. After a long pause] You said I've done this before, that's true. This is who I am. When I was a child my mother was murdered in front of me. It shattered me. I've done this ever since. Because, for the longest time it was the only way that I could feel ... unbroken. And then, Rita was killed, and none of this made sense any more. [Long pause] Until now. [He picks up the blood slide and holds it out to her]
Dexter: [voiceover] Miguel couldn't, my father couldn't, can anyone live with the truth of what I am? [Lumen takes the blood slide] Is Lumen what will make me whole?
