Dexter: Subtitles?

I didn't want to put this in an existing Dexter thread. I didn't want any spoilers.

I was watching the 2nd episode of S1 of Dexter on my portable player last night and there were a couple of scenes in Spanish. There were no subtitles although my machine usually picks up the forced subtitles. I pulled out the DVD and I didn't get any subtitles on it either. Is that correct? Were there no subtitles?

I just went back and checked the recordings from CBS, and the scene I saw that was in Spanish (two criminals making a deal in a park) did NOT have subtitles there either.
I guess they assume all of us know Spanish by now. :)
:eek: BAD assumption. I could tell she was asking the guy how he was but then they lost me!

Yep, no subtitles on the Dexter DVDs.

The disks do have closed-captioning for the hearing-impaired, but neither my HD-DVD player nor my PS3 will pass closed-captioning information to my Samsung DLP TV. So it's either turn up the sound way loud, or watch Dexter with CC on the old-school DVD player and 24-inch Sony TV or on the iMac.
