"Make Your Own Kind of Music" is the ninth episode of the eighth season of the American crime drama television series Dexter.
Set in Miami, the series centers on Dexter Morgan, a forensic technician specializing in bloodstain pattern analysis for the fictional Miami Metro Police Department, who leads a secret parallel life as a vigilante serial killer, hunting down murderers who have not been adequately punished by the justice system due to corruption or legal technicalities.
According to Nielsen Media Research, the episode was seen by an estimated 2.28 million household viewers and gained a 1.1 ratings share among adults aged 18–49.
Dexter (Michael C. Hall) and Vogel (Charlotte Rampling) investigate Zach's studio to find any evidence that could help them solve his murder.
Marshal Max Clayton (Kenny Johnson) after Elway reported Hannah's sudden appearance in Miami.
Dexter uses facial recognition to age a picture of a young Daniel, and is astonished to learn that it strongly resembles Saxon (Darri Ingólfsson), Cassie's boyfriend.
Debra helps Quinn with Cassie's murder, and they question Saxon, who provides a contradiction to what Jamie (Aimee Garcia) told her.

And most of all, I'd hate to think that this particular world is being held at a boring status quo so that Showtime - should they decide to - can have their Dexter spinoff series.
"[5] Richard Rys of Vulture gave the episode a 3 star rating out of 5 and wrote, "Of course, everyone's learning this now for the purposes of storytelling, not realism.
"[6] Kevin Fitzpatrick of ScreenCrush wrote, "Don't gets us wrong, we're glad to see the final season develop its ultimate trajectory at last, though three episodes to turn around our investment in the ending seems like a tall order for a series so uncertain of what it wants for its own main character.
But I'm starting to get the feeling the core cast isn't going anywhere (aside from, potentially, Dex and Harrison), with the whole spin-off idea brewing.
I've never experienced a final season that's so weirdly paced, simultaneously content to wait out the clock and to throw a slew of half-baked but interesting ideas at the audience.

"[13] Alex Moaba of HuffPost wrote, "All in all, "Make Your Own Kind Music" was a suspenseful episode that did a great job of setting up the series' final three hours.
