Showtime has unveiled the official sneak peek for Episode 9 of Dexter: Resurrection Season 1.
It’s hard to believe, but the penultimate episode of Dexter: Resurrection Season 1 is already upon us. Showtime has officially released a brand-new sneak peek for Episode 9, titled “Touched by an Angel,” giving fans a tense look at what’s to come as the season races toward its explosive finale.
With Dexter’s dangerous infiltration of Leon Prater’s secretive “murder club” bleeding into his personal life — and with Angel Batista refusing to let go of his suspicions — the stakes have never been higher. The biggest question now: how will Dexter handle the fact that Prater knows he has a teenage son?
Episode 9 Sneak Peek Breakdown: Prater’s Shadow Looms Large
The newly released 115-second preview from Episode 9 skips the very first moments following last week’s shocking cliffhanger and instead drops us straight into the aftermath.
We see Dexter immediately spring into action, doing whatever it takes to get Harrison out of harm’s way. It’s a move that shows how far Dexter has come as a father — he’s learned from his past mistakes, and this time, he’s prioritizing his son’s safety above all else.
Harrison, understandably confused, is rushed out the back of the restaurant by Dexter. But he knows exactly who Leon Prater is — a figure of almost mythic status in the Dexter world. Once outside, Dexter finally takes the time to explain the dangerous reality of the situation.
In what has become a running theme of Resurrection, Dexter once again chooses honesty with Harrison instead of hiding the truth. He lays out exactly who Prater is and how he became entangled with the group. While the sneak peek doesn’t show us Harrison’s full reaction, the father-son dynamic continues to be one of the most compelling aspects of this new chapter in the franchise.
Building Toward the Finale
If Dexter: New Blood and Original Sin taught fans anything, it’s that the penultimate episodes in this universe are always jam-packed with tension, twists, and devastating revelations. Episode 9 of Dexter: Resurrection looks to be no different. From Dexter’s clash with Leon Prater to Batista’s relentless pursuit of the truth, everything is pointing toward a finale that could redefine the series once again.
This sneak peek is just a taste of what’s coming — and if the franchise’s history is any indication, fans are in for one unforgettable ride.
Watch the full Episode 9 sneak peek below, and get ready for the most intense chapter of Dexter: Resurrection yet.
