Summary

 * "Helter Skelter"

Angel Batista tells Dexter Morgan to grab his kit because there is a second arson victim near the University. (The first victim was found in a burned-out car.) When he arrives at the scene, Dexter spots Benjamin Caffrey, one of the assassins who are after Isaak Sirko. He pretends not to notice him and continues to where the victim is located.

A badly burned corpse is slouched in the corner of a parking garage elevator. According to Joey Quinn, the victim is Leo Santolongo, a grad student. The fire inspector, Phil Bosso, is there, and he says the same accelerant was used as in the car burning. However, this time it doesn't look like a suicide. Dexter asks to have the elevator doors closed. After they are shut, he and Bosso see a reverse shadow, as if someone was standing there. Dexter says they have a “phantom.” Also, the word "Bobby" is written in the ashes on the door. Bosso is shocked by the sight and says he’s never seen anything like it. He tells Dexter that the killer must have been wearing a fire-proof suit, with Dexter adding that the killer blocked the victim from escaping and watched him burn alive.

Back outside, Dexter takes Debra Morgan aside and tells her that he thinks that Hannah McKay is being held hostage at the home of Juan Pablo, one of the Columbian victims of the shooting at Mateo's Bar. She agrees to check it out.

Dexter then phones Isaak and tells him that Caffrey is watching him. Isaak orders Dexter to lead Caffrey to a cargo ship, the Fearless at Pier 18.
