Overview

• The first two episodes feature Harrison Morgan’s brutal killing and dismemberment of a hotel guest in one of the franchise’s most visceral scenes.
• Detective Claudette Wallace is introduced as a razor-sharp investigator whose early deductions threaten to expose Dexter’s meticulously concealed crimes.
• Jack Alcott described the dismemberment sequence as a highly technical shoot with precise choreography and extensive practical effects.
• Showrunner Clyde Phillips designed Wallace’s character to be so formidable that Dexter would genuinely feel challenged by her cunning.
• Michael C. Hall returns as Dexter Morgan in New York City, navigating his son’s violent impulses and his own Dark Passenger after the events of New Blood.
