Officer Fori is a character in Season Two of the Showtime series DEXTER.
He searches Rita Bennett's house after she arrives home and discovers her door is open.
Summary[]
After Dexter kills Santos Jimenez, he looks through his wallet and finds the address of Starlight Lanes written on a piece of paper. He realizes that Lila told Jimenez the location of the bowling alley, which led to him being attacked. Just then, Dexter’s phone rings.
Dexter: “Hello?”
Rita: “Dexter, hi. Um, look, I'm sorry to bother you, and I'm sure this is nothing, but I was just wondering if by chance you were at my house.”
Dexter: “Uh, well, no.”
Rita: “Well, it's just that the door was open and you're the only other one with a key.”
Dexter notices that Rita’s house key is missing from his key ring, and realizes that Lila must have it.
Dexter: (sternly) “Rita, get out of the house. Call the police. I'll be there as soon as I can.”
Dexter: (to Santos’ corpse) “I can't leave you here. I can't take you with me. Don't go anywhere!”
Dexter speeds back to Miami and finds Rita waiting outside her house.
Rita: “Oh, hey, I'm sorry to drag you into this.”
Dexter: “No, no, I'm glad you called. The kids?”
Rita: “Next door.”
They enter the house together and Officer Fori approaches them.
Officer: “The place is empty. No sign of forcible entry. I'm guessing you just forgot to lock the door. If you need anything else --”
Dexter: (to officer) “No, no, you're not leaving.”
Officer: “Sir?”
Dexter: “Someone was in this house. You need to have a unit patrolling the neighborhood, and I need you to stay here in the house until I tell you it's safe.”
Officer: “Really? I need to do those things?”
Dexter: (firmly) “I'm with Miami Metro Homicide. I know you don't take orders from me, but if you’d like, I could get Lieutenant LaGuerta on the phone. Or if you prefer to speak to Captain Matthews, I could arrange that, as well.”
The officer is now taking Dexter seriously.
Rita: “Dexter, what's going on?”
Dexter: (to Rita, as he leaves) “Please, just stay here, okay?”
On his way to Lila's loft to retrieve Rita's key, Dexter thought, It's one thing to fuck with me, another to fuck with my ex-girlfriend who hates me. The Lila Experiment is officially over.
