Christine Hill has been taken into custody as a witness on the “Trinity Killer” investigation – as her DNA is related to his. She pretends not to know who her father is. As she refuses to co-operate, Deb and Batista search Christine’s house and find postcards her father sent her, all signed “Love, Daddy.” (Still no name.) Some match known locations of the “Trinity Killer” case. Confronted with the evidence, Christine demands a lawyer. Quinn is forced to accept the truth, enraged how she used him all this time. Deb consoles him by reminding him she had been engaged to the “Ice Truck Killer.” After a night in a cell, Christine is let go, hoping she will lead them to the “Trinity Killer.” She calls her father again, who tells her never to talk to him again and that he wishes she had never been born.
Dexter, meanwhile, worries that his colleagues will catch Arthur before he can. So, he decides to set them off on a false lead. Arthur calls “Kyle,” after hearing the news about Scott’s safe return. Dex made sure no one can link Arthur to the boy’s disappearance. So what does he want, Arthur wonders? To deflect him, “Kyle” demands $50,000 to remain silent. Arthur grabs a phone books to look up “Kyle Butler.” Then, Dexter is called in for an emergence at a crime scene. A Kyle Butler has been murdered. Now he knows Arthur is hunting for him. He breaks into Arthur’s house to collect a razor, comb and toothbrush so as to frame his decoy. The victim in question is a truck driver, accused of murder. Miami Metro is soon enough alerted to the man’s disappearance and finds the evidence Dexter planed in his truck and at his house.
Deb is told Christine wants to talk to her in private. Quinn drives her to Christine’s apartment. Dejected by her father’s rejection, she confesses she shot Deb and killed Lundy to protect her father, and asks for Deb’s forgiveness. She tells her “fuck no.” Christine grabs a gun and before Deb can stop her kills herself. Distressed by yet another traumatic experience, Deb calls her brother, who is looking for Arthur at the amusement arcade. Dex rushes to the police station, unaware that Arthur is following him. Arthur gains entrance by stealing a visitor’s pass, sneaks into the briefing room filled with evidence of the “Trinity Killer” investigation. He is surprised to see their lead suspect is a truck driver named “Stanley Beaudry.” Then he spots Dex in his lab, who comes out to confront him. “Hello, Dexter Morgan,” Arthur says, reading his badge.
During the episode, Dexter contemplates his different personas. “We all have our public life,” he muses, “our private life ... and your secret life, the one that defines you.” He is having a difficult time juggling his various roles as husband and father, blood splatter analyst, serial killer and now as “Kyle Butler.” But this is why the audience can relate. This is why we can sympathize with someone who is really just a monstrous serial killer. We all have skeletons we prefer to keep in the closet. Still, it troubles me I am rooting for him, hoping he will catch Arthur, rationalizing his urge to kill. It is testimony to how well this show is written and performed that they are able to pull that off. On to the season finale we go!
