With Rita and the children out of town, Dexter gets the much-needed time to himself. Next week on "Dexter", America's favorite serial killer will stalk his new victim, a cop that murdered her own family. But Dexter unexpectedly begins to empathize with her.

The more Dexter learns about this woman, the more he begins to question his own judgment. The question is whether Dexter can handle the pressures of family or he is headed down a similar dark path. Christina Cox ("Defying Gravity") guest stars as the female cop whose name is Zoey Kruger.

Meanwhile, LaGuerta and Batista argue over department protocol, which threatens their professional relationship. And Debra aids Lundy in his quest to find the Trinity Killer, neither of them realizing just how close Trinity is to achieving his goals.

Julie Benz recently said in an interview with Cinema Blend that the fourth season will have a shocking ending. "I mean, it's so shocking that - it's just shocking is all I can say. It shocked the whole cast," the actress who portrays Rita said. The show will conclude around mid December.
