""Bob, you seem like a nice man, but this isn't your goddamn business" - Rita, to Bob" |
Bob Hicks is a character in the Showtime series DEXTER.
He became Paul Bennett's Narcotics Anonymous sponsor after Paul was released from prison.
History[]
While at Rita Bennett's house, Dexter Morgan knocks Paul Bennett over the head with a frying pan, secretly transports him to Paul's motel room, where he injects him with heroin. Subsequently, Paul is arrested for drug use and sent back to prison. (Rita is unaware of Dexter's involvement.)
Summary[]
Bob initially assumes that Paul screwed up, until he looks into Paul's allegations that Dexter set him up. Trying to help Paul, Bob goes to Rita's house to have a talk with her.
When he arrives, Rita is taking down Christmas decorations in her front yard. He introduces himself and explains why Paul is telling the truth about his innocence. He says that Paul's prison X-rays showed a skull fracture, but he didn't have one on previously taken hospital X-rays (after Rita hit him with a baseball bat).
Rita doesn't take Bob seriously and retorts that Paul might have smashed his own head against a wall. She tells Bob that he seems like a nice man, but it's none of his business. She then turns her back on him and walks away, carrying her box of decorations.
