Episode 2: Waiting to Exhale
Season 2 October 23rd, 2007
This is the episode that coined the phrase ‘The Bay Harbor Butcher’.
Dexter starts therapy for his ‘addiction’ which Rita believes to be drugs, but of course isn’t. Seems like he would get some help from the sessions, but it isn’t exactly the same.
The Ice Truck Killer returns for this episode, but just in Dexter’s mind. It was good to see him let go at the end of this episode. For someone who claims to have no feelings, Dexter seems care about his brother, his step-sister and Rita. Why would he put up with Rita for so long if he didn’t care about her?
