Season 4: At the start of the season, Quinn was pretty ticked off at Dexter for messing up the blood work for a case he was working on. It was not long before Quinn regretted getting upset with Dexter over the blood work. While investing a crime scene, Quinn found some of the victim’s money locked up in a vault and slipped it into his pocket. Just as he was getting ready to leave, he noticed that Dexter’s caught him in the act. He made several attempts to get on Dexter’s good side, but none of them worked out. Frustrated, he asked Dexter what his problem was and Dexter responded that he didn’t care that Quinn was a dirty cop. The comment hit a nerve with Quinn and in a very heated tone, he told Dexter he’s not a dirty cop and that he gave his job everything he had. The confrontation put Dexter on Quinn’s radar and Quinn started to notice that Dexter disappeared pretty often. The hostility Dexter showed towards him combined with the disappearances started to make Quinn suspicious. He became even more suspicious after he followed Dexter one night and finds Dexter, who was married with a family, at a night club by himself.
When he was not keeping tabs on Dexter, he was spending time with his new sweetheart, Christine Hill. When Christine and Quinn first met, Quinn was working on a homicide case that might have had bigger implications. Christine was a reporter and she started to ask Quinn questions and spend more time with him. He didn’t exercise the best use of judgment and told her that the recent homicides he had been working on might be connected to a serial killer known as the Trinity Killer. Within the next couple of days, all of the information he let slip ended up in a news article written by Christine.
His supervisor, Maria LaGuerta, told him that the relationship was a bad idea and Quinn agreed. He attempted to break it off at first by telling Christine that even though he had feelings for her, their relationship was becoming too complicated. On more than one occasion, Christine told Quinn that she might get fired if she didn’t come up with some new information soon. Quinn told her he couldn’t help her and after she showed up at the station asking for more information, he officially broke things off. The break up was short lived. Christine showed up at his apartment one night, upset and more than a little bit affectionate. Quinn started to make advances on her and when she said, “I thought this was too complicated?” he responded, “I guess I like complicated,” and the two got back together.
All was well for a while longer, but after a few weeks Quinn confided in Deb that Christine was starting to become very intense and she seemed to be everywhere. He soon found out why she was so intense and why she kept on pawing at him to get information about the Trinity Case: she was the daughter of Trinity. After she was arrested, released for lack of evidence, and Trinity rejects her, she killed herself. Quinn was pretty torn up about it for a while but felt better after some comfort and reassurance from Deb.
Following some clues they obtained from Christine before she killed herself and other information they came across, the Homicide department discovered who Trinity was. They were unable to catch him because unbeknownst to them, Dexter had already killed him, but they were excited all the same. The Trinity killer had been at large for over 30 years and has had countless victims. Now they finally had a face to the name and they at least thought they could track him down. Unfortunately their excitement was cut short when they found out that Rita, Dexter’s wife, was killed as the Trinity killer’s last victim.
