Dexter now knows that Jordan Chase is on to them. So, to get him out of harm’s way, he asks Sonya to take baby Harrisons to his grandparents in Orlando and spend time with his brother and sister. And to protect Lumen, he takes her out of the house to his condo. Unfortunately, that shitty Liddy is still tailing them, despite Quinn’s violent demand to stay away. At Miami Metro Deb’s discovery of partial DNA’s has forced LaGuerta to reopen the barrel girls case. Jordan Chase isn’t among the suspects, but he is wanted for questioning – and so is Cole, who is of course already buried at sea. Naturally, Chase pretends he is insulted by the insinuations hurled at his direction and refuses further co-operation without his lawyer present. Meanwhile, Dex and Lumen pay a visit to Emily Birch, whose blood Chase keeps in a vial around his neck, but she shuts the door on them. When they get a search warrant for Cole’s house not only do they find blood (remains of his skirmish with Dex and Lumen), they also find thirteen numbered discs worth of torture-rape footage. The last one must be Lumen. Now Dexter has to stage a clumsy accident to switch her disc when Masuka isn’t paying attention. Lumen’s taken aback how much Dex is willing to risk his life and career for her.
Later Deb tells Dex that watching those (other) discs made her think maybe it was for the best these women died, because she believes no one could ever have a life again after going through that torture. She has been through some horrible experiences herself, from which she’s come back. Deb, wicked smart as she is, has already been able to connect the case with the plastic-wrap murder, figuring (correctly) that someone has been taking out the perpetrators – and she reckons there’s some kind of vigilante out there who knows what these morbid perverts have been up to, someone she feels is like her. She just doesn’t know how right she is. Then Lumen visits Emily again and confronts her with the footage of her own abuse and asks if it has also happened to her. She admits that twenty years ago at summer camp the same group raped and tortured her, but Jordan Chase was still called Eugene Greer. Emily also remembers the name of the fifth member of the group, Alex Tildon. Lumen tells Dex she wants to be the one killing Tildon. When Deb and Quinn go down the list of Cole’s acquaintances found on his computer, they also talk to Tildon, who confirms that he knows him, but denies knowing any of the other names associated with the case. Liddy forges Quinn’s signature to get recording devices – and with it he sits outside of Dex’ condo listening in on their conversations and watching their every move from inside his van. The most disturbing scenes this episode is when Chase talks to Emily, who explains she told Lumen everything – and he sits there like a king on his throne, telling her no one can replace her, that they have a bond, that she is special to him, and that she made him who he is now.
As Dex is preparing his killing tools, Lumen lights up, “look at those,” as if she’s looking at a case of jewelry at Tiffany’s. That’s when Liddy finally catches on from inside his van. Tildon calls Chase asking if he should leave town for a while, but Chase tells him to stick to his usual routines to the letter so as not to cause any suspicion – knowing full well that Dex and Lumen will be waiting for him at his house. Then he calls Deb, pretending that Tildon had called his secretary asking about Cole in a panic. So, right when Dex and Lumen are in the kill room, Deb and Quinn are driving up to Tildon’s house. The tension is unbearable! Will they be able to get away at close call? Deb and Quinn search Tildon’s house and find nothing. The kill room is at the empty house next door! Lumen strikes the blade at Tildon’s heart and gasps for air. It’s therapeutic. Outside, Deb notices a partial footprint, it’s small, Quinn figures it’s female, and Deb concludes (again correctly) that the vigilante must be the group’s last victim meting out her own brand of justice. But by that time Dex and Lumen have returned to his condo, where they commence to make love. Did Liddy follow them to Tildon’s house? We won’t know until next time. What an unbelievable show!
