Dexter realizes that he needs a nanny. Deb jumps in and offers to help with the interviews. She interrogates all the prospective nannies as if they were murder suspects. They decide on a British woman named Sonya. Dexter thinks she is perfect for the job.

For Harrison's benefit, Dexter decides to go to counseling. The doctor says that Harrison is too young to remember Rita's murder. The doctor tells him to do something for himself, so he decides to befriend Boyd Fowler, the dead animal protector. Dexter tells Boyd his name is Darrel Tucker. He decides on a killing place for Boyd – an old tourist center. Harry criticizes Dexter's decision to kill in the daytime.

Dexter calls in a dead animal near the center. Once Boyd arrives, Dexter injects him with something to knock him out. But then Boyd shoots Harry with a tranquilizer gun.
