Summary

 * “Crocodile”

Dexter Morgan attends court to give blood report testimony against a criminal. While leaving, he notices a crying family and sees what he describes as an "opportunity." He returns to listen to a court case where Matt Chambers is on trial for manslaughter, for drunkenly running over eighteen-year-old Alexander Pryce with his car. Alexander’s father sits nearby, weeping.

Prosecuting attorney speaking to the jury:

"“Alexander Pryce finished his homework, kissed him mom, went out for a jog. He told her he’d be back in time to take out the trash cans. Just another night, until... until the defendant not only struck him with his car, but fled the scene, leaving Alexander Pryce alone and dying for hours before his body was found the next morning -- from heinous to unspeakable. The people will prove that not only did Mr. Chambers strike and kill Alexander Pryce but did so while once again under the influence of alcohol.”"Unfortunately, the jury believes Matt and finds him not guilty, after which he promptly returns to drinking and driving.
