The most shocking meeting, however, was between Dexter and Batista, former close friends and colleagues who now shared a clumsy hug and a Cuban sandwich in a brief respite from the tension that would follow. Batista reveals that he had received a call from Dexter’s girlfriend, Iron Police Manager Lake Angela Bishop (Julia Jones), who told her that she suspected her boyfriend, known as Jim Lindsay New bloodwas the butcher of the bay port. Although she later canceled what she said, it was too late for Batista. His ex-wife in DexterMaria Laguerta (Luna Lauren Velez), had also suspected the same thing before she was murdered. For Batista, who does not know with certainty that her old friend was behind Maria’s death but suspects him, it is a coincidence too far.
“Batista and Dexter, there is back when, were friends. Batista was as close to a normal friend as Dexter, and someone he has always loved because of his integrity, his honesty, and he is a rock.

Dynamic, but it was as soft as guys who have a simple connection. I will say, ”said Hall about what awaits us between Dexter and Batista.
