Hi Madhulk,

Almost right; "I don't take to..." usually means "I'm not attracted to.." or "I don't approve of...", and "the morally murky" means "things of dubious morality".

So, Dinah's unlikely, or reluctant, to "cross the morality line", but Lex's final comment implies that she might do so for money.
