Summary

 * “Lost Boys”

Dexter is desperately searching for ten-year-old Scott Smith who has been kidnapped by Arthur Mitchell, a.k.a. the Trinity Killer. Arthur’s son, Jonah, gives Dexter a list of homes for sale that he found in his father’s computer search history.

He visits the homes on the list one by one, but has no luck. He is nearly finished when he’s summoned by Rita to return home because Harrison has a fever. On the way back, Dexter stops at one last house. He walks through the empty rooms and then looks down into the basement. Standing at the foot of the stairs, he sees the silhouette of a young boy.

Dexter whispers hopefully, “Scott? Scott Smith?” A bedraggled and forlorn woman holding a baby appears. With desperation in her voice, she says, “Me and my kids got nowhere else to be. My babies just need a place to feel safe at night. We don't make a mess or nothin'. You ain't gonna tell?” Dexter slightly smiles and says reassuringly, “No. No, I won't.”
