Arthur Mitchell and his family attend this church.

Summary

 * “Dirty Harry”

Dexter Morgan discovers that although Arthur Mitchell is a serial killer, he is not the typical loner. Apparently, he is a loving family man.


 * “If I Had a Hammer”

Dexter wonders how Arthur is able to manage his dual life, and avoid capture for so many years. To learn how he pulls it off, Dexter begins to stalk him. He finds that Arthur’s routine rarely deviates -- up at 6:00 a.m., breakfast at 7:00 a.m., work at 8:30 a.m., noon lunch with faculty, out at 3:00 p.m., and dinner at 6:00 p.m.

From a pew in Arthur’s church, Dexter watches him as he stands near the altar, singing a hymn before the congregation. Dexter notes his success in living as a father, husband, teacher, deacon, all in the name of blending in.

Another time at the church, Dexter observes Arthur and his seemingly close-knit family while they listen to a sermon. To Dexter, their affection for one another appears to be genuine. After the service, Dexter meets Arthur face-to-face for the first time in the church's vestibule. Dexter introduces himself as Kyle Butler and they shake hands. Arthur is warmly welcoming, and suggests that he join them on a church project called "Four Walls One Heart" that builds homes for the homeless. Dexter acts interested, and says he’s been looking for a way to get more involved. When Arthur asks him what brought him to the church, Dexter says that his wife kicked him out, took their kids, and he didn’t know where else to go. Arthur tells Dexter, “You’ve come to the right place, son.”


 * “Lost Boys”

The exterior of the church is briefly glimpsed as Arthur drives by it on his way to an arcade, with Dexter following him.
