To make matters worse, Dexter&#8217;s detective sister Debra has just been transferred to the homicide department, making her another thorn in Dexter&#8217;s side.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"related-single\"><strong>Related:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Dexter New Blood Cast: Character Guide and Descriptions<br \/>\n<!-- No repeatable ad for zone: every entry repeatable. --><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"s4-e11---hello-dexter-morgan\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_S4E11_%E2%80%93_Hello_Dexter_Morgan\"><\/span> <span class=\"item-num\">5 <\/span> S4\/E11 &#8211; Hello, Dexter Morgan<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"body-img landscape\">\n<div class=\"responsive-img expandable img-article-item\" style=\"padding-bottom:52.5%\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static1.moviewebimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/323_4_135077_01_1280x640-(1).jpg\" data-modal-id=\"single-image-modal\" data-modal-container-id=\"single-image-modal-container\" data-img-caption=\"&quot;CBS Television Distribution&lt;br \\\/&gt;\\nShowtime&quot;\">\n<figure> <picture> <!--[if IE 9]> <video style=\"display: none;\"><![endif]--><source media=\"(min-width: 1024px)\" sizes=\"750px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static1.moviewebimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/323_4_135077_01_1280x640-(1).jpg?q=50&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=750&amp;dpr=1.5\"\/><source media=\"(min-width: 768px)\" sizes=\"943px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static1.moviewebimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/323_4_135077_01_1280x640-(1).jpg?q=50&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=943&amp;dpr=1.5\"\/><source media=\"(min-width: 481px)\" sizes=\"767px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static1.moviewebimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/323_4_135077_01_1280x640-(1).jpg?q=50&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=767&amp;dpr=1.5\"\/><source media=\"(min-width: 0px)\" sizes=\"480px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static1.moviewebimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/323_4_135077_01_1280x640-(1).jpg?q=50&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=480&amp;dpr=1.5\"\/><!--[if IE 9]><\/video><![endif]--><img width=\"1200\" height=\"630\" class=\"lazyload\" alt=\"Dexter\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static1.moviewebimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/323_4_135077_01_1280x640-(1).jpg\"\/> <\/picture><figcaption class=\"body-img-caption\">CBS Television Distribution<br \/>Showtime<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><!-- No winning ad found for zone: word count #3! --><br \/>\n Directed by SJ Clarkson, this episode&#8217;s final scene between Dexter and Arthur goes down in history as the greatest scene from the entire show.

When Lila West accuses Angel Batista of sexually assaulting her, and tries to blackmail Dexter into taking her back, the Bay Harbor Butcher considers turning himself in to the police to ease all the trouble caused. Meanwhile, Debra grows increasingly exasperated with Lila&#8217;s antics, resolving to take risky maneuvers to deal with her.<br \/>\n<!-- No winning ad found for zone: word count #4! --><br \/>\n<!-- No repeatable ad for zone: every entry repeatable. --><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"s7-e1---are-you\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_S7E1_%E2%80%93_Are_You%E2%80%A6\"><\/span> <span class=\"item-num\">3 <\/span> S7\/E1 &#8211; Are You&#8230; ?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"body-img landscape\">\n<div class=\"responsive-img expandable img-article-item\" style=\"padding-bottom:52.5%\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static1.moviewebimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dexter_s7e1_d_story-1200x900.jpg\" data-modal-id=\"single-image-modal\" data-modal-container-id=\"single-image-modal-container\" data-img-caption=\"&quot;CBS Television Distribution&lt;br \\\/&gt;\\nShowtime&quot;\">\n<figure> <picture> <!--[if IE 9]> <video style=\"display: none;\"><![endif]--><source media=\"(min-width: 1024px)\" sizes=\"750px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static1.moviewebimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dexter_s7e1_d_story-1200x900.jpg?q=50&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=750&amp;dpr=1.5\"\/><source media=\"(min-width: 768px)\" sizes=\"943px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static1.moviewebimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dexter_s7e1_d_story-1200x900.jpg?q=50&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=943&amp;dpr=1.5\"\/><source media=\"(min-width: 481px)\" sizes=\"767px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static1.moviewebimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dexter_s7e1_d_story-1200x900.jpg?q=50&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=767&amp;dpr=1.5\"\/><source media=\"(min-width: 0px)\" sizes=\"480px\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static1.moviewebimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dexter_s7e1_d_story-1200x900.jpg?q=50&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=480&amp;dpr=1.5\"\/><!--[if IE 9]><\/video><![endif]--><img width=\"1200\" height=\"630\" class=\"lazyload\" alt=\"Dexter\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static1.moviewebimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/dexter_s7e1_d_story-1200x900.jpg\"\/> <\/picture><figcaption class=\"body-img-caption\">CBS Television Distribution<br \/>Showtime<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> Directed by John Dahl, this season seven premiere is one of the most-watched <em>Dexter<\/em> episodes of all time, bringing in a grand total of 2.4 million watchers during its original airing period.

Directed by Steve Shill, this episode shocked fans and non fans alike, featuring the darkest the show had ever been up to that point. With Rita being murdered in the bathtub, and little Harrison covered in her blood, the visual was as painful for the audience as it was for Dexter. A shocking secret comes to light thanks to Debra, as Rita is troubled by the problems in her marriage to Dexter. Elsewhere, Dexter and Arthur continue their ceaseless confrontation in consistent attempts to one-up the other person.\n<\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
