Heavyset Man

Heavyset Man is a character in Season Five of the Showtime series DEXTER.

During a seminar, he professes that a Jordan Chase’s CD changed his life.

Summary

 * “Take It!”

Dexter Morgan attends one of Jordan Chase's motivational seminar to get close to Cole Harmon, head of security, with the intention to kill him. Sitting with the audience, he watches brutal footage on large screens of wild animals fighting and hunting in their natural habitats. In the background, Jordan gives an inspirational speech that centers on his philosophy regarding primal instinct.

During another seminar later that day, an overweight man addresses the audience from the stage.

"Heavyset Man: “I'd pretty much given up hope. I figured I was destined to go through life alone, and then I started listening to one of your CDs.” Jordan: “The Primal Self?” Heavyset Man: “I started listening in the car on the way to work. Three weeks later, [enthusiastically] I met my soul mate, and now we have a baby on the way!”"

He points to an attractive pregnant woman sitting in the front row. Cheers and applause arise from the audience.

"Jordan: [to pregnant woman] “Come on up here.” Heavyset Man: “Come on! Come on, honey!”"Cole takes the smiling woman’s hand and walks her to the stage.

Dexter, realizing that Cole will be at his security post for another hour, leaves the seminar to meet Lumen Pierce and set up a kill room
