“There were a lot of tears the whole last week. When I found out, I called Jennifer [Carpenter] right as I was leaving the offices, and she thought I was playing a joke. She couldn’t believe it. She was shocked. And then the producers told the rest of the cast because after telling Jennifer I just said I can’t do it. It’s too hard. I get really emotional thinking about it. It was my family and my favorite place to go every day.

I relate it to Cinderella and she’s at the ball and she’s having the time of her life. But it’s midnight and she has to leave even though the ball is still going on. It doesn’t change her experience because she enjoyed every minute of it but it is time to go home and that is sad.”

—Julie Benz (about leaving Dexter)

“I wonder if Rita is looking at this same moon in this same moment. I’d like that. Connected by light. The dark passenger has been fighting against it, trying to keep me all to himself. But it’s my term now. To get what I want. To embrace my family. And maybe one day, not so long from now, I’ll be rid of the dark passenger. It all begins with a get-away. Time away from the old me. It’s okay. Life doesn’t have to be perfect. It just has to be lived.”

Doakes: I’m watching you, motherfucker.

“It was difficult. The crew had just found out, so not only was I dealing with my own emotions over shooting the scene, but also trying to hold it together as they all kept hugging me and saying, “we’re going to miss you.” I didn’t want a big goodbye though, I just wanted to sneak away. But when they announced “that’s a series wrap for Julie” it was just a river of tears.”

DEXTER: If I’d never been in your life…
RITA: Fuck you!
DEXTER: Fuck me?
RITA: If you hadn’t been in my life, I wouldn’t be who I am. You’ve given me confidence, and the support… you’ve been the one constant… the one constantly good thing in my life. […] I love you.
DEXTER: I’m so thankful.

“Sometimes I wonder what it would be like for everything inside me that’s denied and unknown to be revealed. But I’ll never know. I live my life in hiding. My survival depends on it.”
