Plot

María LaGuerta (Lauren Vélez) is promoted to Captain due to blackmailing Deputy Chief Matthews (Geoff Pierson), whose name was on a prostitute's ledger. Vince Masuka (C.S. Lee) is teaching a group of forensic science students, eventually having a female student, Ryan Chambers (Brea Grant), become his intern. LaGuerta and Angel Batista (David Zayas) are divorced, but try to remain friends; this is further complicated by Matthews' decision to promote Debra Morgan (Jennifer Carpenter) to Lieutenant, instead of Batista, who sees it as a direct impact of the events between Matthews and LaGuerta. In retaliation, LaGuerta continuously thwarts Debra's attempts for a good first impression by giving her the wrong advice; however, Debra makes an independent decision to hire Mike Anderson (Billy Brown) as the new detective, in spite of LaGuerta persistently recommending someone else. Batista's sister Jamie (Aimee Garcia) has become Harrison's babysitter, and Dexter and Debra visit a Catholic pre-school in hopes of signing Harrison up. Quinn (Desmond Harrington) proposes to Debra, but she refuses, causing them to split. Debra's promotion causes Quinn to believe that the two are connected, and he starts dating again.

This season features two main antagonists, Professor Gellar and Travis Marshall (Edward James Olmos and Colin Hanks), who base their killings on biblical texts, specifically the Book of Revelation, and leave signs of the Apocalypse including the Alpha and Omega or the Four Horsemen, as a cryptographic tableau at crime scenes. Another character introduced is Brother Sam (Mos Def), a former drug addict who killed the owner of a house he was robbing, but following the death of the judge responsible for his trial, Sam repented and became a minister. He operates a body shop where he employs other ex-convicts, whom he also "shepherds" to lead crime-free lives. Initially believing Sam to be behind the fruit vendor's murder, Dexter is quickly proven wrong and finds himself becoming friends with Sam.
