Summary

 * “Hello, Bandit”

Dexter, deciding to move out of his house following the murder of his wife, arrives at Miami Move and Haul to rent a van. The rental agent greets Dexter, who is carrying Harrison in a car seat.

"Agent: “So, Dexter Morgan, let's get you a moving van.” Agent: (to Harrison) “Aren't you a cute kid, huh? Huh?” Dexter: (smiling) “He's not actually talking yet.” Agent: “Here's your 18-footer. What's his name?” Dexter: “Harrison.” Agent: (at next van) “14-footer. It's a family name? “"

Dexter notices a stain in the back of the van. Blood.

"Dexter: “Uh, sort of.” Agent: “So what kind of stuff you moving?” Dexter: “Just, uh, furniture, clothes. Uh, dresser, maybe. He thought, Plenty of reasons for blood to be there. Someone cut himself moving. Agent: “Well, if that's all we're talking about, save yourself some money, go with the 10-footer.” I can't let myself think about this, Dexter thought. I've just got to move the kids. Dexter: (walking back) “Actually, I think I'll go with the 14-footer.” Agent: “Okay, let's, uh, write you up.”"

As the agent prepares the contract, Dexter sets Harrison down in the back of the van and stares at the blood.
