Summary

 * “A Beautiful Day”

Dexter learns that Debra is staying with a criminal, Andrew Briggs, in a Fort Lauderdale motel. Taking little Harrison with him, Dexter drives to the motel and tells Debra that she’s in danger because a hitman is targeting Briggs. However, Debra’s still furious at him and won’t heed his warning. When Dexter tries to force Debra to go with him, Briggs interferes. Dexter angrily pushes Briggs back into the motel room and a struggle ensues. Briggs tries to grab a knife, but Dexter seizes it first and stabs him with it.

Debra, distraught, orders Dexter to leave while leveling a few accusations at him. She refuses to let Dexter dispose of the body and instead calls the police to report a suspected homicide. Soon the motel room is a crime scene, with Debra being questioned.

"Officer: “So you work for Elway Investigations? Did a skip trace on Briggs, you went out for a sandwich, and you found him dead when you got back.” Debra: “That's it.” Officer: “Any idea who might want to kill him?” Debra: “No.” Officer: “We'll call you if we have any more questions.”"

When Debra leaves the scene, she calls Jacob Elway, saying that she might have a lead on the jewelry. From a nearby car, the hitman has been watching and he realizes that Briggs is dead and his only way of retrieving the jewels is through Debra.
