Movie quotes

  • (..) Every time the shit hits the fan, I go to him. - Dexter? - Yeah. He's your safe place. - Wormwood. - What the fuck's a wormwood? This... is Wormwood. I think I found a new lead. My wife Beth and I have been chosen to be soldiers in the final battle. I'll call Quinn, go check it out. You're too late. Wormwood can't be stopped. Dexter, you have to call the police. Hurry, they have poison gas. Miami Metro Homicide. That's where God wants us to stage Wormwood. (..)
