Crew members carefully wrap Dastmalchian in Hollywood-friendly “fake duct tape” (looks real, but isn’t sticky) for the kill scene.
12. The Classic Dastmalchian Gaze
As crew members prepare the scene, Dastmalchian shoots the camera his signature intense stare — a nod to his goth-inspired personal style.
13. Gareth on the Floor
Many fans were surprised by Gareth’s seemingly quick demise, given his status as a notorious serial killer and FBI Most Wanted. But the reveal of his twin brother — the other half of the Gemini Killers — quickly reignited excitement for what’s next.
Final Thoughts
The twin brother twist in “Cats & Mouse” sets up major stakes for the rest of Dexter: Resurrection Season 1. If Dexter goes after the second Gareth, it won’t be an easy kill. With the Gemini Killer threat still looming, the next few episodes are shaping up to be some of the most intense in Dexter history.
