Showtime’s hit crime drama “Dexter” is well underway in its eighth, and final, season and fans just can’t get enough of it. This Sunday will bring the season’s third episode, “What’s Eating Dexter Morgan?,” which will shed some more light into Dexter (Michael C. Hall) and Deb’s (Jennifer Carpenter) fractured relationship. The episode is sure to delve into Dex’s new relationship with Dr. Vogel (Charlotte Rampling), who turned out to be behind the code he lives by, as well.
Many were surprised by Deb shooting—and killing—yet another character on the show during the last episode. However, TV Guide’s Natalie Abrams assures fans that this is Deb’s “rock bottom” and that Vogel will be helping her out of it. Executive producer Sara Colleton told TV Guide, “It’s when her PTSD is at the worst and it’s what makes her realize that she is in desperate need of help.”
“Vogel steps in to say, ‘Dexter can’t deal with this; let me help’,” Colleton added. Despite the help, it will take some time for Deb to get back to her normal self, Abrams said.
Fans have also been eager to find out when Dexter’s ex Hannah (Yvonne Strahovski) will be making her much anticipated return. It was announced in late June that Strahovski would be reprising her role of Hannah McKay, Dexter’s ex-girlfriend who eventually lands in jail.
According to TVLine, Strahovski will make her return as the attractive killer around midseason.
Colleton called her return “a very interesting way” and added, “These two people were like magnets, and sometimes that can be attractive, sometimes that can be repulsive. But it will definitely be part of Dexter’s emotional journey to experiencing what being a human being is all about.”
“Dexter” S8E3, “What’s Eating Dexter Morgan?,” airs on Sunday, July 14 at 9 p.m. on SHOWTIME.
