Dexter: Original Sin
monition ! This article contains SPOILERS for Dexter : Original Sin time of year 1 , episode 8.Many of the characters from the originalDexterhave already appeared inDexter : Original Sinseason 1 , but there are still nine people who are miss from the prequel serial . Thecast ofOriginal Sinis filled with returning characters fromDexter . Everyone from Dexter himself ( Patrick Gibson ) to tertiary fictitious character like Camilla Figg ( Sarah Kinsey ) has been recast with younger actor to fit withOriginal Sin ’s 1991 timeline . There are even some bigtimeline inconsistencies inOriginal Sinsimply because the prequel show require to let in as many original characters as potential .
ThoughOriginal Sinwent to great lengths to include as manyDextercharacters as potential , it had to leave some of them out . sealed characters , like Rita Bennett ( Julie Benz ) , could n’t meet Dexter until well after he became an adult , so it would n’t make sense to recast them forOriginal Sin . Others , however , in all likelihood should have been active in 1991 , either at Miami Metro or just in world-wide , yet the prequel serial has n’t included them yet . These nineDextercharacters are oddly missing fromOriginal Sinseason 1 so far .
9Thomas Matthews
Played By: Geoff Pierson
Perhaps the most perceptibly absent member of Miami Metro is Captain Thomas Matthews . InOriginal Sin , Captain Aaron Spencer ( Patrick Dempsey ) run Miami Metro ’s homicide division , and he ’s largely postulate over Matthews ' character from the original show . Matthews was shown several time to be a foresighted - prison term ally of Harry Morgan ( Christian Slater ) , and it was mean that he acted as captain for years while Harry was around . Spencer fits both of those descriptions , as he was Harry ’s captain in narcotic back in the 1970s . It would be one thing to interchange a graphic symbol , but Matthews proved to be too of import to do so .
Dexter : Original Sin time of year 1 , instalment 7 reveals the self-aggrandizing villain ’s identity , setting up the presentation of a absent character from the chief serial .
Luckily , it looks likeOriginal Sinalready has a programme to infix Captain Matthews to the show . SinceAaron Spencer isOriginal Sin ’s abductor , Dexter is almost sure going to put him on his kill table in the nigh time to come . Once Spencer is deadened , Miami Metro is going to require a new captain , and Matthews may establish to be his refilling . There would , however , still be the subject of encounter a style to create a farsighted and historied friendship between Matthews and Harry , butOriginal Sinwould at least have a chance to solve that problem after it introduces him .
8James Doakes
Played By: Erik King
Original Sinhas changed the timeline of Dexter ’s early life story substantially , which has made it difficult to settle who could or could n’t be at Miami Metro already in 1991.WhileDexterdid frequently cite the fact that James Doakes was serving on a special personnel squad before he became a homicide detective , there ’s no reasonOriginal Sincouldn’t have shifted his history around . Original Sincould have even included a scene indicate Doakes ' first solar day at Miami Metro , just as it did with Maria LaGuerta ( Christina Milian ) .
One of the most illustrious absences from Dexter : Original Sin is the iconic original character James Doakes , but there ’s a well reason why he ’s missing .
Unlike other character on this list , there ’s still a fortune that James Doakes actually could unite the cast ofDexter : Original Sin . Since Bobby Watt ( Reno Wilson ) was recently shoot inOriginal Sinepisode 8 , there will soon be an opening for a novel investigator at Miami Metro . Based on how many episodes remain inOriginal Sinseason 1 , the prequel show may allow Doakes replace Bobby as a special introduction for the series finale . There ’s currently no Holy Writ onOriginal Sinseason 2 , but if it does happen , Doakes ' introduction would be the sodding setup .

7Juan Ryness
Played By: Unknown
One of Dexter ’s most important victim was a man named Juan Ryness . Juan was either a pimp or a drug trader , and he was actually one of thesix killsOriginal Sinshould have included , as he was directly register to be one of Dexter ’s victims while Harry was still alive . In fact , Juan Ryness was the last victim Dexter took before Harry Morgan killed himself , and it was mostly the reason for his self-destruction . Ryness had killed Harry ’s collaborator , Davey Sanchez , and Harry walked in on Dexter in the unconscious process of butchering Ryness ' trunk .
Ryness had killed Harry ’s partner , Davey Sanchez , and Harry walk in on Dexter in the process of slaughter Ryness ' eubstance .
Dexter deduced that Harry could n’t handle the realness that he turned his son into a freak , and overdosed on his heart medication as a result . Ryness is arguably the most important kill Dexter made as a unseasoned grownup , butOriginal Sinseems to have already replaced him . AfterOriginal Sinrevealed Aaron Spencer is the kidnapper , it seems that he ’ll be the kill that leads Harry to self-destruction , not Ryness . Spencer inadvertently have Harry ’s partner , Bobby Watt ( Reno Wilson ) shot inOriginal Sin , which was the same reasonableness Dexter kill Juan Ryness in the original show .
Dexter: Original Sin explores the origins of Dexter Morgan as he transitions from student to serial killer in 1991 Miami. Guided by his father, Dexter channels his dark urges through a moral code while starting a forensics internship at the Miami Metro Police Department.
6Davey Sanchez
Played By: Unseen
Juan Ryness is n’t the only part ofHarry ’s death inOriginal Sinthat the prequel show has vary . As antecedently mention , Dexter targeted Ryness because he had killed Harry ’s partner at Miami Metro , a man named Davey Sanchez . Davey has yet to come along inOriginal Sin , and it seems he ’s been entirely substitute by Harry ’s current better half , Bobby Watt . Bobby was shoot in the neck inOriginal Sinepisode 8 , and it wait like the prequel show is set him up to die , and for his Orcinus orca to be the drive of Harry ’s suicide .
After 4 episodes , the Dexter prequel series Dexter : Original sinning may have already foreshadowed the eventual death of one of its brand new characters .
Since he ’s been so thoroughly replaced by Bobby Watt , Davey Sanchez ’s absence does n’t really take away fromOriginal Sin . Even if the show had used Davey instead of Bobby , really the only matter that would have alter is his name . Bobby is still Harry ’s beloved partner and booster , he ’s still going to go , and his death will have the same force Davey ’s did . Aside from the name , Davey essentiallyisinDexter : Original Sin . That does , however , call into query why the prequel show would bother to change only Davey ’s name , but it ’s too soon to say if there ’s some bigger reason for the change .
5Dr. Evelyn Vogel
Played By: Charlotte Rampling
One of the only charactersOriginal Sinhas outright cut without leaving much room to present them in the hereafter is Dr. Evelyn Vogel . Dr. Vogel was introduced inDexterseason 8 as a psychiatrist who work with Harry Morgan to developthe Code of Harryand harness Dexter ’s " dour passenger " as a force for justice . Because she worked with Harry to mould Dexter throughout his youth , Vogel should have already made an visual aspect inOriginal Sin . There ’s an entire videotape inDexterseason 8 of Harry trust in Vogel just after Dexter ’s third killing , which plainly did n’t happen inOriginal Sin .
Dexter : Original hell has mostly kept in dividing line with Dexter ’s establish history , but it ’s completely ignore a major twist from season 8 .
It ’s not entirely unclouded whyOriginal Sinhas cut Dr. Vogel , but there is quite a chip of elbow room for speculation . Dexterseason 8 and Vogel were both pick apart by fans for weaken Harry ’s moral gray and remove out some of the incrimination he drill for turn Dexter into a serial killer . Original Sinmay have only want to make Harry ’s account and moral dilemma more compelling , and it had to go forth Vogel out to do so . Additionally , Clyde Phillips is the showrunner ofOriginal sinfulness , and since he was n’t involved inDexterseason 8 , he may just not be concerned in shoehorning in someone else ’s instauration .
4Francis
Played By: Tasia Sherel
One of the more overlooked members of the Miami Metro class , Francis , could have made an appearance inOriginal Sin . Francis was Miami Metro ’s record keeper who , oddly , worked in the cellar of the construction rather of the records elbow room Camilla Figg work in . It ’s not entirely exonerated when Francis began working for Miami Metro , but since she was work at the same time as Camilla inDexterseason 2 , it ’s fair to assume her position would be open in 1991 . Depending on her age , Francis may have even started work around the same clip as Dexter did .
In Dexter , Francis ' primary function as a fictitious character was as a workaround for Camilla , who was personal friends with Harry and aid him keep his secret out of Miami Metro ’s records .
Despite the fact Francis could have conceivably made an appearance inOriginal Sin , it ’s not a very big heap that she ’s been leave out . InDexter , Francis ' main function as a grapheme was as a workaround for Camilla , who was personal friends with Harry and helped him keep his secrets out of Miami Metro ’s record . Original Sinhas no demand for someone who can get at files Camilla would have guarded , as Deb and Dexter did n’t even begin investigate their father ’s pestiferous arcanum until over a decennium later on . With Camilla in the cast , Francis would have been middling redundant .
3Hannah McKay
Played By: Yvonne Strahovski
Hannah McKay , Dexter ’s eventual girlfriend and foster female parent of Harrison , could have made a cameo visual aspect inOriginal Sin . Hannah and Dexter patently could n’t have met in the prequel show , as they had their first brush inDexterseason 7 , but the former still could have been included . Hannah famously went on a joyride murder spree with her lover when she was 15 years older , and she spend a clean amount of time in a juvenile facility for her involvement . The timeline is a bit iffy , but sinceOriginal Sinhas already made important chronological change , Hannah ’s murder could have taken office in 1991 .
At most , Hannah could have been referenced in live coverage of a standoff or high - speed Salmon P. Chase at the remnant of her execution spree .
Of naturally , to keep their first meeting intact , Original Sinwouldn’t have been able to do much with Hannah McKay . At most , Hannah could have been referenced in live coverage of a repulsion or mellow - speed Salmon P. Chase at the goal of her execution fling . Anything more than that , like having Dexter involved in the blood splutter analytic thinking of one of Hannah ’s slaying , would risk create a massive plot hole in the originalDexter . All in all , a brief point of reference like that believably would n’t have been deserving it inOriginal sinfulness .
2Unnamed Drug Dealer
Another one of Dexter ’s dupe who has been wholly rewrite is the nameless drug dealer he took as his third victim . InDexterseason 8 , during a meeting with Dr. Vogel , Harry Morgan mention that Dexter had recently killed his third victim . He described the victim as a drug dealer who had also plume and killed two college educatee , but he did n’t give a name . Original Sinhas already depicted Dexter ’s third killing in extreme detail , but his dupe was Levi Reed ( Jeff Daniel Philips ) , not an unnamed drug dealer .
Dexter : Original Sin saw Dexter formally become a serial killer , but it also bring in a major retcon to the instant and a wind in Dexter time of year 8 .
Once again , the fact thatOriginal Sindoesn’t admit the unknown drug dealer is n’t a major deficit . He was only authoritative enough to be mentioned in put across inDexterseason 8 , so there likely is n’t anyone who was drop dead to learn more about him . That being said , it is odd thatOriginal Sinwould so blatantly disregardDexterseason 8 and not even attempt to make Levi Reed fit Harry ’s description . It would n’t have been unmanageable to write Levi Reed as a homicidal drug bargainer , yet the show chose to make a fair significant retcon anyway .
1Joey Quinn
Played By: Desmond Harrington
The lastDextercharacter who could have appeared inOriginal Sinis Joey Quinn . Quinn join the original show ’s vomit inDexterseason 3 , after Doakes ' death , and the show gave a bit of backstory to explicate his sudden comer . AsDexterexplained , before he shift to homicide , Quinn was a narcotic officer at Miami Metro . The timeline is , again , a mo fuzzy and may need some changes , but sinceOriginal Sinhas been focalize so heavily on the cartels and the drug trade , Quinn easily could have appear . Quinn could have given some information about the Los Tigres trust or even help raid their safehouse .

If he had been include inOriginal Sin , Joey Quinn probably would have been a minor fiber , rather than a extremity of the show ’s master roster like Batista or LaGuerta . Luckily for fans of Quinn , he has a much better hazard of appearing in theupcoming sequel showDexter : Resurrection . Quinn was still live at the end of the originalDexter , which means he could easy join Batista and Angela in hunting down Dexter years after he dislocate through his finger’s breadth . If that ends up happening , some of theDextercharacters miss fromDexter : Original Sinwon’t be as missed .
