...Need to be rewritten...
Dexter investigates Trinity and learns that he is the professor and family man Arthur Mitchell, married with two children. Trinity hides behind a well-kept mask, and getting behind that facade will require some extra prodding on Dexter's part. Dexter is intrigued with the real affection of Trinity for his family and decides to get closer to the serial-killer. He goes to the Sacred Fellowship that helps people and he introduces himself as Kyle Butler. Meanwhile, Rita forces Dexter to go with her to a marriage therapist expecting to resolve her issues with Dexter. Debra believes that Nikki Wald had killed Lundy and she is intended to commit perjury against the junkie. She becomes frustrated when she finds herself shut out from her own case. She considers bending the rules in the name of justice, risking her career in the process. Maria and Angel regret the disclosure to Deputy Chief Tom Matthews about their relationship and they deliver affidavit that they are not dating each other. They realize that by playing by the rules they may have painted themselves into a corner. And when the friction between Rita and Dexter comes to a head, Dexter gleans relationship advice from a most unlikely source.
