The Family Business - S1-E9

Character mistake: Dexter tells Harrison he was around his age when he started exhibiting violent tendencies. However, in the original series, Dexter was considerably younger, as flashbacks detailed that a pre-pubescent Dexter would kill animals. One episode even showed that a dog that a very young Deb brought home had to be taken back, as Harry feared that Dexter would kill it.

Continuity mistake: It is stated multiple times that forensics reports showed that the Bay Harbor Butcher used ketamine to incapacitate his victims. However, it wasn't ketamine that Dexter used in the original series, but rather M99.

Question: Would it actually be possible for someone as young as Harrison was to remember seeing his mother being murdered? I think he was around a year old at the time.

Answer: Around 1 year old is very unlikely. However, there are numerous reports and articles online of kids as young as 4 telling people "daddy hurt mummy" or vice versa when witnessing a murder.
