A serial killer?

The killer's methods are escalating.

He's-he's experimenting. He's becoming more violent.

[Bean] Someone took a fire poker,

beat the guy like a piñata,

and kept going after the candy came out.

Any suspects?

Brian has been remarkably resilient

considering what they've been through.

So, I'm-I'm afraid we can't handle his level of trauma.

What about Dexter?

We've grown to really love him.

Holy shit.

[gasping]

Fucker is stalking my son.

- You promised me... - [sniffles]

you wouldn't separate me and Dexter.

[crying] I'm sorry.

- [chain saw buzzing] - No!

I'm gonna separate you.

Help me!

[screaming]

I know this is gonna sound crazy,

but I think Captain Spencer killed Jimmy Powell

and kidnapped Nicky.

That is crazy.

Please let me out of here.

What did I do?

This will all be over soon.

Nicky Spencer was spotted at a known cartel stash house.

Tell me where my fucking son is, motherfucker.

Aaron, stop!

- [overlapping shouting] - [rapid gunfire]

Officer down!

- How's Bobby? - Shot in the neck.

Massive blood loss. He's in surgery.

Jesus Christ.

We can't let Bobby's sacrifice be in vain.

- [grunts] - Ah!

Dexter, what is this?

You were always one of the good guys to me.

I am one of the good guys!

Good guys don't kill kids.

- She betrayed me. - Becca?

[Spencer] Betrayed my family and turned Nicky against me.

Oh, you did all this to...

- to hurt your ex-wife? - [Spencer] Let me go.

I'll tell you where Nicky is.

When I get back,

you better be more forthcoming about Nicky.

That I lacked empathy,

disregarded social norms.

That I would exploit or violate others.

Some doctors even said I was a psychopath.

I was seven years old, then eight, nine, ten.

I had everything taken from me.

My mother, my little brother, my freedom.

For years the only constant in my life was Raul.

I thought he was the only person who actually cared about me.

- Meds for Moser. - Yeah.

- Thank you, darling. - You're welcome.

I was supposed to be on three new medications

you used them as bait

Petrie's right.

You shouldn't contact Dexter

and I'm gonna make sure you never do.

Too late.

Anyone sitting here?

Yeah. I'm saving their seats.

Sorry.

No problem.

What did you do to him?

What are you talking about?

To Dexter. To make him forget his own brother.

He was so young, so traumatized, he blocked it all out.

How convenient.

Is that why you threw me away?

So you wouldn't have to tell your son the truth?

That you fucked his mom,

forced her to snitch

and sent her off to the cartel

to get chainsawed to pieces in front of him.

And what about the fact

that you buried his only surviving sibling

so deep in the system...

because then you'd have him all to yourself.

I never meant to hurt you.

But you couldn't be saved. Dexter could.

Dexter needs me.

You're right.

He needs you...

to let him go.

You come back into his life,

you're just gonna bring all of that pain with you.

All of that suffering.

Is that what you want for your little brother?

I saved Dexter from all of that.

Gave him a good life, a chance to thrive.

He never would have had that with you.

You can hate me for good reasons
