Dexter: Early Cuts (2009) s03e02 Episode Script
All in the Family - Chapter 2
The holiday season always brings up my Dark Passenger siren call.
I'm not sure what it is.
Maybe it's the desire to wrap things up.
Tie them into a bow.
Or maybe it's my desire to find out who's been naughty and who's been nice.
But let's face it.
I only care about the naughty ones.
Taking out the trash is what lets me survive my day job.
But time passes.
My mask begins to slip.
My true nature starts to show, which means time to hunt again.
Lucky for me, I keep track of the naughty ones.
