In the final episode, everything blows up. Harrison watches Dexter kill the local villain, Kurt Caldwell, and then Dexter wants to run away together. But Harrison has a different plan. He pulls a gun on his own father. Gasp. He even shoots Dexter in the leg! The kid is not messing around. He finally admits that he loves his dad, but he can’t live this life. It’s destroying him.

Then, in a move that would make any therapist weep with pride, Harrison shoots Dexter in the chest. Boom. He kills his father. But wait—it’s not out of revenge. It’s out of mercy. Harrison knows Dexter will never stop. He knows the only way to break the cycle is to end the Dark Passenger for good. So he does. And then he drives away, leaving Dexter to die in a cabin. The ultimate “get help” moment.
What Happens to Harrison Afterward?
Oh, you thought that was the end? Ha! Dexter: New Blood leaves us with a gorgeous, tragic final shot: Harrison driving through the snow, heading to Los Angeles. He’s leaving his past behind, but he’s also carrying his father’s sins and his own dark side. So, is he going to start a new life? Become a therapist? Open a vegan bakery?
The show’s ending is intentionally ambiguous. But here’s the hopeful spin: Harrison chose not to become his father. He refused the Code. He refused the darkness. He literally shot the symbol of his trauma. That’s a huge step for a kid who started the season by nearly killing a classmate. He’s not cured—he’s still got a lot of work—but he’s aware. And awareness is the first step, even if your first step involves a corpse.
