DexterRazbor - This is my interpretation. Since Dexter was adopted, he didn’t know what genetic diseases he was prone to, or could pass on to his son. To reassure Rita of his health, he underwent a physical examination, including a body scan to diagnose existing conditions. During the scan, Dexter dozed off and dreamed the scenario you asked me about. Due to his medical education, he likely knew that brain studies of unremorseful homicide offenders show significant differences from those who don’t kill. Thus Dexter’s dream expressed his concern that his brain was abnormal and his need to kill may have a hereditary component.
