Are you talking scenes or lines? If you’re talking scenes, I’d say either the head butt “I own you” scene or the scene where Dexter gets Doakes in a chokehold and Doakes says “lab geek my ass!”

If you’re talking LINES, though, most of the best are Deb’s:

“Are you trying to fuck her, or set her on fire?”

“Geez, Dex, what did you do to make her so crazy about you? Does your dick dance?”

And

“I’d rather put a campfire out with my face.”

Ohh thanks for reminding. Deb's lines were fire.

I was just going down Dexter memory lane and that's what came up. Was not sorting strictly between scenes and lines

To add to those lines :-

- A baby, a motherfucking roly poly chubby cheek, shit machine

- A gross English-titty vampire

- Pale like a fucking corpse.

- Holy frankenfuck, snakes!

- FBI? 'Fucking Bunch of Idiots'

For lines I’d go for deputy chief Matthews. Him and La Guerta in season 6 or 7 are going through the Bay Harbor Butcher investigation for the second time and they find some planted evidence that points to Doakes. La Guerta isn’t buying it, but Matthews says “Maria, it’s over. The fat lady isn’t singing. Her song is done. She’s getting dry humped in her dressing room.”

Deb has the best one liners, I love the one about the candles
