This is it, Dexter fans. The Dexter: Resurrection Season 1 finale is just around the corner—Episode 10 titled "And Justice for All..." premieres on September 5th, officially wrapping up the first chapter of this thrilling new installment in the Dexter saga.
Since its July 11 premiere, the series has wasted no time in surprising audiences. From the very first minute, fans were stunned to see the return of John Lithgow as the infamous Trinity Killer in a chilling dream sequence during Dexter’s coma. Not long after, we got another fan-favorite cameo with Jimmy Smits reprising his role as Miguel Prado, also through a dream. And then came a short but unforgettable appearance by Erik King as James Doakes, who once again delivered his iconic line—“Surprise, motherf**ker!”
These cameos were a nostalgic treat, but once Dexter woke up from his ten-week coma, the story shifted gears. The return of more old characters seemed unlikely as the narrative focused on Dexter’s fresh start in New York City, with Harry Morgan once again serving as his guiding voice.
The Return That Was Promised: Brian Moser
But one return has been teased ever since Episode 4—and it hasn’t happened yet. Back in June, Christian Camargo—the actor who first played Brian Moser (a.k.a. the Ice Truck Killer) in Dexter Season 1—hinted at his comeback in a TikTok post.
In the video from behind the scenes of Dexter: Resurrection, Camargo appeared showing the same red shirt and white tank outfit that Brian wore during his final scenes in Season 1—right before his death. It wasn’t just a playful nod to the past; fans immediately recognized it as a major clue that Brian would return in Dexter: Resurrection.
Nine episodes in, however, Brian has yet to appear. With only the finale left, all signs point to his long-awaited return.
Why the Timing for Brian’s Return Is Perfect
The setup couldn’t be more fitting. Earlier this season, the show re-introduced Brian Moser’s iconic blood-draining table as part of Leon Prater’s disturbing collection of serial killer memorabilia—a direct callback to Dexter’s biological brother.
Now, with Dexter trapped in Prater’s vault alongside Batista’s lifeless body, the stage is perfectly set for Brian to re-emerge, whether as a hallucination, a dream sequence, or perhaps something even darker.
Given Christian Camargo’s confirmation, Brian’s return feels inevitable. The real question is: will it be a cameo like Trinity, Miguel, and Doakes—or something more impactful?
Final Thoughts
Dexter fans have been eagerly waiting for Brian Moser’s return since Camargo dropped that TikTok teaser months ago. The finale is the perfect opportunity to bring him back in a way that ties the season together.
But will Brian’s reappearance carry real emotional weight for Dexter, or will it simply be fan-service to cap off a cameo-filled season?
What do you think—will Brian Moser’s return in Dexter: Resurrection Episode 10 be meaningful, or just a nostalgic nod to longtime fans?
