This character allows the average person to live vicariously through someone taking justice into their own hands against child molesters and killers, and it feels good to watch from a safe distance. Yet the things he says and thinks are absolutely on par with the average introvert at the best of times.
Dexter is a relatable introvert, although he’s really a sociopath. As Dexter becomes more involved in the case, clues start appearing just for him in his house, and he finds himself dreaming of the killer’s victims and murder room. A serial killer is on the loose, murdering prostitutes on the Miami streets and leaving their frozen body parts for the cops to find.

Despite the fact that he can't stand the sight of blood and works as a blood-spatter analyst for the Miami police.īut Dexter also has a secret: he is an accomplished serial killer. At heart, he's the perfect gentleman: he has a shy girlfriend and seems to lead a quiet, normal life bordering on mundane.
