New Blood Why True Crime Podcaster Molly Is Dexters Most Dangerous Enemy

Warning: This article contains SPOILERS for Dexter: New Blood episode 4.

True crime podcaster Molly Park has wedged her way into Iron Lake’s investigations, signaling the biggest trouble yet for Dexter in New Blood. After exiling himself to Iron Lake and starting a new, quiet life, Dexter Morgan lived for nearly a decade without killing or getting caught for his past crimes. Paired with his son Harrison having a Dark Passenger, Kurt Caldwell terrorizing the area as a serial killer, and Dexter getting back into his murderous habits himself, Molly Park’s investigative prowess is extremely bad news for Dexter’s hopes of keeping his past a secret.

Molly Park (Jamie Chung) was introduced in New Blood episode 3 as she attempted to assist Angela on the search for Matt Caldwell in Iron Lake’s woods. Angela’s daughter Audrey then revealed that Molly is an extremely most popular true crime podcaster, hosting the hit show Marry F*cking Kill which takes a deep dive into the most notorious serial killers and murders – including The Trinity Killer and his murder of Dexter’s wife Rita Morgan. As of New Blood episode 4’s ending, Molly has struck up a working friendship with Angela, proving she’s an asset on the Matt Caldwell case and mysteries of the local missing women with her investigative knowledge and vast social media following.

While Molly may have seemed harmless in New Blood’s earlier episodes, “H is for Hero” proves that she may be instrumental in finally revealing Dexter’s identity to the public. Molly is Dexter’s most dangerous new enemy. Before attacking Ethan, Harrison is shown listening to Molly’s podcasting episode on The Trinity Killer, which features a segment dedicated to the murder of Rita Morgan and the fact that infant Harrison was found in a pool of her blood. With such extensive research on The Trinity Killer and a focus on Rita’s death from Dexter season 4, Molly clearly knows who Dexter Morgan is as the husband of Rita and father of her son. Considering Molly and Dexter have already met, New Blood hints that Molly doesn’t know what Dexter Morgan actually looks like, but knows enough about his past and likely the reports of his “death” at sea that she could piece together the connection.

Since Molly knows that Rita’s baby Harrison was found in her blood, she likely did more research on what became of him. It’s suggested that Harrison was thought to have died with Dexter on Slice of Life in the season 8 finale or was deemed missing before returning from Argentina, so by getting to understand more of “Jim” and Harrison’s story in New Blood, she’s apt to realize that Rita Morgan’s husband and son are both alive and living under aliases in Iron Lake. Since Harrison is still going by his real first name, this makes the chances of Molly Park making the connection all the more probable. He may not have given away too many clues to his true identity in New Blood’s first few episodes, but Harrison has now given away one of the most significant hints to who he is in episode 4. He cut Ethan in his femoral artery with a straight razor – the exact tactic and blade The Trinity Killer used to murder Rita.

As an expert on The Trinity Killer and the background of his notable victim Rita Morgan, Molly Park is the first major rival in Dexter: New Blood to pose a significant threat in exposing Dexter. While trying to convince Angela that she can use her, she revealed that her podcasting following has helped solve cold cases in a matter of hours, including most of the missing women on Angela’s board in Iron Lake’s police station. Molly will most likely be used to hunt down Kurt Caldwell as Iron Lake’s serial killer, but her strategies for questioning may lead her on a path of discovering Dexter’s identity. If Molly is successful in New Blood, she’ll be the investigator who finally reveals that Dexter Morgan is The Trinity Killer’s mysterious colleague Kyle Butler, and even more significantly expose that Dexter actually killed John Lithgow’s Arthur Mitchell nearly 15 years ago.
