What is the plot of Dexter: Resurrection?

Dexter: Resurrection takes place a few weeks after New Blood. Having recovered from the gunshot wound that Harrison caused, Dexter comes out of a coma. Learning about what Harrison did in New York and how he vanished thereafter, Dexter breaks out of the hospital with the hope of tracking down his son and stopping him from going down the same dark way that he had once taken.

With a fresh serial killer on the loose, Dexter is set to solve the case while evading Miami Metro Captain Angel Batista and still looking for Harrison. As with its predecessors, the show combines the criminal underworld, eerie suspense, moral evaluation, and dark wit.

"That it was pure joy for an OG fan is a big part of why I was so excited when I saw it. I was like, ‘Oh, it’s gonna resonate, and it shows just how rich the mythology of the show has grown to be.’ It was amazing seeing those guys and doing scenes with them, so many years since we started. It was incredible," Hall said.
