"Hello, Dexter Morgan" is the 11th and penultimate episode of the fourth season of Showtime TV series, Dexter, which aired on December 6, 2009. The police team attempt to get Christine Hill to talk while Dexter frames another man in order to get Arthur Mitchell, the Trinity Killer, all to himself.
The episode begins with Christine Hill under interrogation by Angel Batista. Angel asks her about her parents and tries to get her to give him a name, which spurs Dexter to think about framing someone as a decoy to the police, giving him time to kill Mitchell. Mitchell sees the news of the return of the boy he abducted and realizes that Dexter had not told the police about him. He phones Dexter and asks what he wants; Dexter, improvising, tells him that he wants $50,000, or he will tell the police that Mitchell is pedophile. Dexter tells him that he has 24 hours to get him the money. Mitchell takes out a phonebook and researches the various Kyle Butlers of Miami and tells Dexter that he will be in touch.
Back at the station, Debra tries to get Quinn to start thinking properly and see that Christine isn't who she told him she was. When Dexter leaves the station, Quinn reacts suspiciously, asking him where he's really going, after Dexter tells him he's going to see Rita for lunch. Captain Matthews informs LaGuerta and Batista to meet him in his office. He shows them a video of the two kissing, which proves they were lying in their affidavits; he tells them that they have committed perjury, and are going to need to find new jobs. Dexter goes through possible victim files to decide which one he should frame for Trinity's murders. Meanwhile, Mitchell gets caught trying to break into a house by a man named Kyle Butler who tells him that he will call the police. Mitchell kills him. Dexter arrives for an appointment with Rita for marriage counseling, but gets called to a crime scene as soon as he arrives. Rita then confesses that she and Elliot kissed.
