Summary

 * “In the Beginning”

Dexter notices a man shuffling through Joey Quinn’s desk.

Dexter: “Can I help you?” Liddy: “Yeah. You got a pen?” Dexter: “Sure.” Liddy: Just, uh, leaving a note for Joey. I'm an old friend.” [Dexter hands him a pen.] “Thank you. You're, um -- you're Harry's kid, right? Blood guy.” Dexter: “That's right.” Liddy: “And your sister, Detective Morgan... usually it's the boy child ends up doing the police work, not the girl. But here you are in the geek squad.” Dexter: “Yeah. Blood spatter suited me more.” Liddy: “You like the blood, huh?” Dexter: (slightly smiling) “I like catching bad guys.” Liddy: “That's cute.”

Dexter takes a call from Lumen Pierce and has to leave. Once he’s gone, Liddy locates what he’s looking for -- Quinn’s signature. He forges it onto a form and takes it, as he whistles a tune, to the Requisitions Officer.

Liddy: “Hey, beautiful, I got to pick up a few things for a stake-out. It's for Detective Quinn. You see his name there.” Officer: “Let's see. Surveillance cameras, wireless mics, and a portable wireless recorder monitor.” Liddy: “Yep.” Officer: “Be right back.” Liddy: “Thank you.” Officer: Mm-hmm.”


 * "Hop a Freighter”

While in his apartment, Dexter notices surveillance footage of himself and Lumen on a baby monitor and realizes they are being watched. He locates a recording device in a lamp that’s marked as property of the Miami Metro Police Department and is alarmed that he’s being investigated. He decides to do his own investigating the next day.

To find out who checked out the equipment, he waits until the Requisitions Officer takes her break. She grabs a cigarette and sets out a desk sign saying “Back in 5 minutes.” Dexter thought, “Closer to ten minutes. She likes a cup of coffee with her smoke. But that's more than enough time to see that... Detective Joseph Quinn checked out the cameras -- three cameras, to be exact, two microphones, a recorder -- only three days ago. Maybe no one's seen the footage yet. Case number. It's from 1982, when Quinn was in grade school eating paste. It's a fake. No court orders authorized for my address. This is off the books.”

As he walks out of the station to meet Lumen, he thought, “Quinn's doing this on his own.”
