and you tried to take him away from me.

[muffled scream]

[Dexter] My first trophies.

I didn't know it then, but it would end up

being a terrible mistake.

[Deb] How much can I get for these?

Earrings are fake.

I can't give you anything for them.

Hey, if you don't want those earrings,

- can I have them? - Knock yourself out.

- Deb. - [Andy] Dude!

Get the fuck out of here!

[people gasping]

- [panting] - [Sofia] I used to make fun

of you, but that in there, that was, wow.

[Spencer] We've been unable to flip any of the Colombians,

so we need a new way in.

Someone who can move up, get an audience with Estrada.

[Spencer] Find someone you can trust.

Uh, that is my son Brian.

This little angel's Dexter.

Hello, Dexter.

[Dexter] So many killers still on the street,

free to do it again.

[Dexter] So, you knew him?

[Batista] He borrowed money from the wrong guy.

Scumbag named "Handsome" Tony Ferrer.

So, Ferrer goes to Rene's house,

put a gun next to his head, fired,

told him that if he didn't have his money by Friday,

the next bullet was gonna be in his skull.

After Ferrer left,

Rene saw that the bullet went through the wall

and hit his mom in the head.

She died instantly.

Hey, Sarge, have you heard about Judge Powell's kid?

Reported missing.

Hello? Can I go home?

[Spencer] This heinous act,

the abduction

and mutilation of a defenseless child

is not only an assault on this family,

it is an attack on the entire city of Miami.

Jimmy was last seen walking

to Saint Theresa Catholic School alone,

Thursday at 7 a.m.

[Dexter] A finger in a box.

It should've excited me.

The close-up work of a fellow monster.

But a child's finger...

Hey. You okay, son?

I'm fine.

Harry was worried it would bring up my past,

unearth buried trauma.

All I knew was...

I wanted blood.

Investigators are currently canvassing

the surrounding neighborhoods, seeking witnesses.

If anyone has information,

please contact the tip hotline.

[TV reporter] Have there been any demands

from whoever did this?

No messages at all.

[Dexter] That's because the finger was the message.

It would take about seven pounds of pressure

to cut through a bone of this diameter.

A child's bone.

Clean cut. No hesitation.

Probably used something spring-loaded.

Pruning shears.

And whoever did this is accustomed to violence.

♪

Judge Powell has a long history of coming down hard

on the cartels.

Could this be retaliation?

We're looking at everything.

While this act is incomprehensible to all of us,

no one feels Jimmy's loss more deeply than his family.

We want to assure the Miami community

we are doing everything we can to resolve this case.

And we will bring this perpetrator to justice.

To the individual responsible, I will not stop

until Jimmy has been safely returned to his family.

If you do not release him,

you will pay the ultimate price.
