Where/how Dexter stalks victim:Dexter tries to trick Lila into thinking that he is still in love with her. He tells her to pack so they can skip town together. This plan backfires, and Lila kidnaps Astor and Cody to lure Dexter to her apartment. Once he is there, she proceeds to set the apartment on fire while locking the door to prevent Dexter and the kids from exiting. Lila flees to Paris. After surviving Lila's attempt on his life, it is unclear how exactly Dexter finds her whereabouts. He sneaks up on her while she is reading her mail.

Why victim deserves it:Killing James Doakes; attempting to kill Dexter, Astor, and Cody.(note: Dexter does not consider Lila's confessed kill of her former boyfriend because Dexter asks Lila if her former boyfriend deserved it and according to what Lila said he did. According to Dexter then Lila did no wrong, initially.)

Dexter's kill methods and rituals:Dexter does not use his traditional rituals, as he isdoes innot awant this rushkilling linked to catchanything awith the "Bay Harbor Butcher", and also he's in Paris which obviously means plane.he doesn't have the disposal resources he does back home. He does, however, show his victim a picture of the person whose life was taken, in this case Doakes' image was taped to a postcard, as a reminder why Dexter intends to take the victim's life.

Best lines:

  • It's strange to have a creation out there, a deeply mutated version of yourself, running loose and screwing everything up. I wonder if this is how parents feel.

  • "Oh my god! What did you do to make her so pathetically crazy for you? Does your d*** dance?"--Deb to Dexter, referencing Lila's obsession with him
  • Lila: "I can't feel my legs and my body"
  • Dexter: "Good. I went with a spinal epidural instead of the tranquilizer. I've got a plane to catch, and you don't need to feel this." --Dexter and Lila just as he is about to kill her
