Summary

 * “Truth Be Told”

The Ice Truck Killer has left body parts wrapped up as presents under a Christmas tree at a holiday-themed area. The homicide unit is already on scene when Captain Matthews arrives, moving past the reporters and cameramen.

"Reporter: (to Matthews) “After all this time, why do you think the Ice Truck Killer has struck again?” Matthews: “Any answer at this time would be pure speculation on my part.” Reporter: “Do you think it has any connection with your department's handling of the Neil Perry fiasco?”"

Matthews, annoyed by her questions, doesn’t answer the reporter. When he reaches Sgt. James Doakes, Lt. Maria LaGuerta, Officer Debra Morgan, Dexter Morgan, and Vince Masuka, they are about to watch a video left by the Ice Truck Killer. It shows Monique, a prostitute, being murdered as she hangs upside down, crying. The body parts under the Christmas are hers, minus a missing hand.

While there, Matthews takes the case away from LaGuerta and gives it to Doakes, claiming that she's making no progress.
