Summary[]
- "Dexter" (pilot)
After living the crime scene at the Seven Seas Motel, Dexter arrives at the station bearing a box of assorted donuts. He wanders around the station, handing out the donuts to his co-workers: Debra, Camilla (the record lady), whom he charms to get information), and Angel. By the end of the scene, the donut box is empty, and Dexter muses that it's empty inside like he is.
As Dexter is spinning around in his chair, surrounded by blood spatter photos, Sergeant James Doakes announces himself to get Dexter's attention by rudely asking, "Where the hell you been?” Doakes tosses photos of the Cokehead Murders upon Dexter's desk that show a bloodied couple carved up by a blade.
Trivia[]
- Every main antagonist in the series has been inside the police department at least once, except for Travis Marshall. However, his associate, Beth Dorsey, died there while setting off a gas bomb.
- In the Dexter Novels, the Miami-Dade Police HQ has a jurisdiction rivalry with the Broward Police Department.
- In the TV series, the Miami Metro Homicide Department works alongside the Miami Sheriff's Department, which operates in a different facility, employing both Ramon Prado and Sergeant Lopez.
Notes[]
- The department is a fictional version of the non-fictional Miami-Dade Police Department of Miami, Florida.
- The official website for the real Miami Metro Police Department is located at Miami Police
- The exterior of the Miami Metro Police Department in Dexter is actually an amalgam of at least five different locations that changed throughout the seasons. The places include a false front built against the blank side of a large sound stage at Sunset-Gower studios; an actual building next to the water in Marina Del Rey; a bank parking lot in Long Beach; a parking lot at a Long Beach hotel near the Queen Mary; and an actual Miami building. (The interior of the police station was a studio set, built inside Sound Stage 16.)
