The intern, what's his deal? He knows what/who Dexter is and he's a fan? Since last season he was a total fanboy for some random reason and Dexter kept blowing him off and he also bought the icetruck killer maneqin hand last season. I don't buy the whole "making a videogame based on u brah" thing, that was to impress Dexter. And now he randomly cancels his credit cards? He didn't cancel them because he was pissed, since he obviously got the information from Dexters laptop.

So this season we have creepy intern, laguerta, deb, ukrainian mob and possibly Quinn since he was on him earlier.

Creepy intern has been kind of pissed at Dexter since he called his video game idea bad and offensive. I'm sure he knows about Dexter some how, why else would he have bought the hand and then mailed it to him? I think the credit card thing was more or less a message like "I have power over you!" Or maybe even like the ice truck killer and the barbie doll a message like "Wanna play?"

Anyone without Showtime have any alternatives to watching Dexter? I thought I could buy them on iTunes after the episode aired, but I don't see them up...

Why the Hell am I still watching this show? Season five was bad, season six was bad, and now this season comes back with the same, stale writing and horrible characters and cliched plot twists. Maybe I just want it to be good, like how it was when I first started watching it :\

As a criminal justice major and someone that plans to be a detective in the future, this show is almost insulting. Is Dexter the only fucking person in that entire department that is good at his job? A cop just got killed -- something that would usually get the whole force worked up into a state-wide manhunt -- and we got the two stooges and Masuka over here handling it. While the former are off drinking, the latter is sifting through useless paperwork and all the while Dexter finds and kills the guy before the day is done. I understand Dexter broke into the guy's apartment, checked his laptop, and other things that violated the fourth amendment, but he's a vigilante; I get that, so he'll be able to do things regular cops can't. But nobody checks the turn signal?! Dexter is really the only person capable of figuring that gem out? These detectives have decades of experience combined and they all decide to look for fingerprints everywhere but the turn signal?

I also loved the AFIS app for his iPhone XD

It's a real shame they killed off the new cop. He was the only other reasonably competent detective in the show and he gets killed after having just enough lines to start to see some potential. But as someone earlier in this thread said, every black person on this show dies :\

All my qualms aside, I am interested in Louis. The Ice Truck Killer's hand was lying on the table at the end and so I wonder how Dexter will handle that. So there's that... Meh.

I think this is the season where his sister finally dies so we can have some better more intense story-lines. She's holding the plot back. Once she's dead we'll see Dexter run loose.
Do an arranged marriage if she's not completely minging, and don't worry about dancing, get a go-kart, cheers.

boy that church scene was pretty terribly unrealistic. i don't know how it could be realistically written though, and maybe if they didn't force that incest storyline it wouldn't be so bad, but man it felt so forced and awful

I assumed dexter was the first person to dust the car for prints, so if he found it on the turn signal he could easily wipe it off so no one else sees it?

Masuka mentioned many parts(by name) of the car being wiped clean and only the girls prints being found anywhere before dexter checks the turn signal.

That part is actually written a little weird, Dexter says 'theres somewhere they always forget to clean, the turn signal' making it seem like the most obvious place for cops to check...

I think the intern is just pissed and knows nothing. How would he know? The hand thing might have been just to fuck with him? Because the ice truck killer almost got his sister?

This series can only end in two ways to not disappoint me:

a) he gets caught
b) incest ending

Anything else and I will be sad

This is probably exactly what would have happened if Debra hadn't walked in on Dexter mid-kill.


For some reason I read this as (in regards to debra) "Please don't suck Dexter off"

with micronesia responding "this is probably exactly what Debra would do if she walked in on Dexter mid-kill

The real responses were far less entertaining

Maybe it'll be a Hannibal-like ending where they have to disappear together.

You should be more than aware that such incompetence is completely common. There is nothing unreasonable in supposing they will over look one particular area in a crime scene, as there are thousands of such events every year. Not to mention, this is a show, its a fucking artistic medium to express a story. In that regard while its perfectly reasonable to assume dexter then wiped the prints off so the cops COULDNT find this guy, it wasnt portrayed as it hurt pacing and bit into time constraints. The rest of your points are dismissed similarly: Of course there are other detectives following separate leads to find Mikes killer, they werent shown. We are shown the main characters, who exist to further emotional development and plot points in dexter and Debra. Thats there entire role. As far as there detective work goes it homogenizes and becomes generalized in the backdrop of 'the station' engaging in x activity. There has basically been exactly one point in which there was *any* fixation on what Batista etc were actually doing day to day on the job, and it was the ice truck killer. And even then it was just a means of needling out clues to Dexter and to give an excuse for his inner monologue.

If there detective work isnt relevant to Dexter, it will be glossed over because its fucking background story. Period.

And every black guy dies...you mean Doakes and Mike? Theres only been two. Thats not exactly some trend to point out.

I don't know if you ever took statistics in high school but that's a 100% death rate. Don't you think that's a pretty hard figure to argue against.

They aren't blood related, kinda just awkward "we grew up together since we were 4" sex.
