‘Dexter: Resurrection’s Michael C. Hall Teases a Dark New Twist to Dexter’s Formula

In the second episode of *Dexter: Resurrection* season two, Dexter begins to question whether keeping his killings secret is worth it, as he grows older and longs for recognition. Actor Michael C. Hall says this shift creates a dangerous tension for a character who has spent years avoiding attention, especially as he encounters Don Framt, a suspected serial killer who enjoys his notoriety.

Dexter is also weighing an offer from Charley, played by Uma Thurman, to help track down killers in exchange for practical support and a luxury apartment; Hall says he is drawn to her recognition of who he is. The episode’s target is Ray Ballard, known as the Sleepy-Eyed Killer, while Joey Quinn returns seeking answers about Angel Batista’s death. Brian Cox describes Don as impulsive and unaware of how precarious his position can be.
