Despite its bleak and gloomy atmosphere, Dexter Season 9 Episode 6 is a great addition to the series, as it gives viewers a little bit of hope. While the show’s main protagonist is battling with his past, he also has to deal with the loss of a loved one, which leads to a series of harrowing incidents. Luckily, he manages to save the day and get to work with his friend. The episode was also an excellent example of the character’s strength as a detective, as he tracked down the killer despite all the complications.
Drama
During the sixth episode of Dexter: New Blood, Dexter’s secret gets out. He’s been living as Jim Lindsay in Iron Lake, New York for almost a decade. Now he has to figure out how to start a new life while still being a decent human.
The plot of this episode is based on nature versus nurture. Dexter’s relationship with his son Harrison has been strained. Harrison is trying to open up to Dexter about his past. Harrison explains to Dexter that he has feelings of abandonment. He says that he has thought about hurting people. He also notes that he has been in therapy.
Dexter and Harrison have been in therapy together, and Dexter is struggling with his relationship with his son. Dexter has also been looking for someone to blame for the outing of his true identity. Dexter says that his marriage has fallen apart. He has also been seeing Molly, who was his sister. He feels that he has a chance to start over, but he doesn’t want to kill people. He’s afraid that he will lose Harrison to Kurt.
The episode also features a trip to the caves. While there, Angela makes a shocking discovery. The cave is where Dexter planned to hide Matt Caldwell’s body. She also discovers Kurt’s bunker. She makes a call to Logan to help her find Matt’s body.
Dexter also has a meeting with Kurt Caldwell, who is the town’s unofficial mayor. Kurt is a serial killer who has taken an interest in Harrison. He has a makeshift morgue. He also has a doo-wop dungeon. He’s also trying to get closer to Harrison.
In addition to the obvious episode-ending surprise, the show also pays attention to the podcast Molly Park has been producing. The podcast has a lot of information about the Bay Harbor Butcher. It’s also a clever way to justify more Dexter.
The show also introduces several new characters. The show has an overall quieter tone, compared to the thriller days of Miami. The show feels more like a catch up than a series of thriller episodes. There’s also just enough Dexter DNA to keep fans happy.
Psychological thriller
Psychological thrillers usually deal with the psychological narratives of characters, films, or settings. Often, the story revolves around a violent person or person’s inner monologue.
‘Dexter’ is a psychological thriller series starring Michael C. Hall as Dexter Morgan, a forensic technician working for the Miami Metro Police Department. He has a secret life as a sociopathic serial killer. His job is to kill criminals who evade justice. He wears gloves when killing and disposes of their bodies in the Atlantic Ocean Gulf Stream. He has also helped escaped murderers.
‘Dexter’ was originally produced for television by Showtime. It was directed by Marcos Siega and was adapted from the Darkly Dreaming Dexter novels. The series was a critical and commercial success. It was also nominated for an Emmy award. It has been revived by Fox for a limited run. The revival will be made up of ten episodes, 47 to 58 minutes each.
“Dexter” is based on the novels by Mark Olshaker and John E. Douglas. The show is set in the late 1970s and early 1980s. It follows the establishment of the FBI’s Behavioral Science Unit and consulting psychologist Wendy Carr.
‘Dexter’ is set to return in season 9. The series will be set ten years after the season eight finale. In that time, Dexter has kept his darker side out of the spotlight. He has helped murderers escape justice and now launches a new type of hunt. He also has to deal with a witness who wants to expose him. He must also deal with a double.
‘Dexter’ will have a season nine premiere in 2021. It is unclear if Harrison will return. He could appear in a revival series. It is also uncertain if the show will be connected to the season eight finale. Nevertheless, fans can still expect more from ‘Dexter’ in season nine.
‘Dexter’ season 9 will feature Kurt Caldwell. The show will also feature Michael Cyril Creighton as a friendly local business owner. Jamie Chung and Oscar Wahlberg will also star.
Subplot
Several years have passed since Dexter Morgan (Alano Miller) was last seen. Now he’s back. He’s staking out new prey, like Jorge Castillo (Daniel Rodriguez) who is a smuggler killing smuggled immigrants. He also has a new love interest. It seems as though the show is getting past its expiration date.
The “ice truck” killer, as he’s called, used to be the security guard at a major hockey arena. He’s more flamboyant now with each appearance of dead body parts. This was also a great example of how Dexter has changed. In the original series, Dexter was said to use M99 as his drug of choice. His manner gives him some respectability.
It was only a matter of time before the “ice truck” killer became the next big thing in the serial killer genre. It’s not hard to see why. The serial killer wants notoriety attributed to someone who is educated in chemistry.
The “ice truck” killer is a blatant example of a fictional character, but there are plenty of real life examples of this kind of skulduggery. Some examples include LaGuerta, who loves the spotlight.
Another example is Dexter’s relationship with Angela. The show has spent plenty of time exploring their bond and the bond between Dexter and Rita’s children. It seems that both characters have secrets to hide. However, the show could have used more episodes to explore this storyline.
The best part about this storyline is the way it showed the possible future of Dexter. The series has been slow to explore emotion, but this storyline showed that he’s never going to be fully humanized. The show also did a good job of showing that his selection process wasn’t flawless.
The therapy scene was another good example. The scene had a nice underlying tension. The scene also featured Jack Alcott, Jennifer Carpenter, and Alton Fitzgerald White.
The “ice truck” killer aptly demonstrates the “Molly” – the spidey – sight. However, the “Gimme the most” subplot was a misfire. The show should have taken time to explore the relationship between Dexter and Angela.
Review
During this episode of Dexter, we saw a number of conflicts. There were scenes that felt uncomfortable and rushed, but the ones that were well-executed had underlying tension. The episode ended with a great cliffhanger.
The episode began with a therapy scene. The scene was well-executed and featured Jennifer Carpenter, Alton Fitzgerald White, and Jack Alcott. The therapist listened to Harrison and talked about his trauma, and he shared his full story. The scene was well-written and featured a great sense of underlying tension.
During the therapy session, Dexter was hesitant to reveal his secret to Harrison. He said that he wanted to focus on being a good father. He assured Debra that his latest killing was a “one and done.” However, when Dexter found out about Kurt’s serial killing, he got suspicious. He thought Kurt might be using Harrison as a way to get back at him. He also thought that Kurt’s son Matt may be a serial killer, which is why he had a special interest in Kurt.
The episode also had a sleuth subplot with Molly Park. She is a true-crime podcaster. Her podcast is dedicated to the Bay Harbor Butcher, and she has a lot of information on the case. She is also working with Angela on the missing runaways in Iron Lake. The episode was also good.
Dexter has changed in the past few episodes, and this episode shows the change. He is no longer meticulous and is no longer as careful as he once was. He is now very loose-handed and randomly kills people. He is not following Harry’s code anymore. He also hasn’t shown any example of how he can remove the Dark Passenger without dying.
The episode also had some great moments. One of them was Angela finding the body of a girl she had been searching for. This could have shown grief over Rita’s death, but it didn’t. The episode also had a great detail of Angela pulling Dexter over on a highway. This is a great scene and it is very similar to the scene in the episode where we first see Angela pull Dexter over.
