Summary

 * “First Blood”

Dexter is with a group of mothers and their toddlers in a park, and Harrison is playing with the other kids. Dexter is still worried about his son growing up to be like him, after witnessing his mother's murder.

When Teddy, a young boy, starts crying, his mother asks, “Sweetheart, what’s wrong?” as she picks him up. A second mom notices a small scratch on Teddy’s cheek. It reminds Dexter of the cuts he makes during his kill rituals. The playgroup director closes out the session and takes Teddy’s mother and her son off to the side to apply a band-aid. The scratched child points an accusing finger at Harrison and Teddy’s mother frowns at Harrison.

Dexter scoops up Harrison and beats a hasty retreat, thinking, “But I use a scalpel. All you have are your fingers...wiped clean. Not even a year old, you're already destroying evidence. And having to flee the scene of the crime.”
