I believe his/their best bet at getting away with it now is to cut up Lageurta and dump her in the ocean. Then it looks like she killed Estrada and then ran away, which would make sense as people would think she tried to frame dexter again and screwed up--Laguerta's bullet is still in him. Cleaning up the blood and dumping the body would be a trivial issue.

In for next season's Quinn and Batista (and Matthews?) to be final bosses and defeat Dexter. He'll go out Light-style from Death Note.



This is what i figure will happen in season 8 if they have to explain it. Leave the dead guy and make it look like LeGuerta ran from the scene after shooting him. Ezpz


Except that the angle and position of the bullet would totally contradict that.

Holy shit ... :D got excited but 1 thing REALLY irritated me...

Why would LaGuerta go to the Port ALONE?! The first time she had Backup-officers ... now she got a CALL from a Missing (presumed Dead) guy that calls for help, yet she goes there alone? wtf?

Thats bad writing I guess °_° that flaw was maybe inevitable to let the story continue that way.

because everyone thinks she framed dexter and she's on the verge of getting fired.
Of course she woulndt call for backup.

Also i'm not sure whether dexters self sacrificial acting is genuine or the typical sociopathic manipulation, playing on Debra's feelings for him.


Its bad writing. She knew it was a trap and yet she doesnt call for backup?

The writers basically wanted to set up a scenario where Deb had to choose between her brother or doing whats right. Pretty exciting scenario except for the fact that Laguerta was unarmed and Dexter was about to kill her before Deb showed up. Deb didnt have to kill Laguerta but instead of walking away and let Dexter do his thing she killed her anyway. Why? Dont ask questions thats why.


What are you basing "she knew it was a trap" on? There is no evidence of that at all.


Common sense, I guess. You let a guy out of jail assuming he's going to be murdered, he calls you from inside a shipping container asking for help, it's not because he's trying to move a heavy coffee table. She at least knew Dexter was somewhere nearby.


She knew Dexter was after him and it was her chance to catch Dexter in the act.

That doesn't mean Dexter already had him captured and was just luring her into a trap. Common sense doesn't lead to that conclusion at all.

As a spectator, it's easy to forget the fog of war and confuse common sense for the player with common sense for the spectator.

I don't think they will give this show a satisfying ending next season.


I would say Jennifer Carpenter, fucking amazing acting. She pretty much nailed it this season. Her crying, sobbing and overall mimics, the tone of her voice etc. before shooting Laguerta was AMAZING. Not to mention her great performance at confessing her love to Dexter in the balcony scene. She deserves an Emmy with this season.

You're probably right, but I loathe her character so much that I don't care.

"Dexter Morgan, you are under arrest for the murder of..."

Should have been one of the coolest lines in tv history and yet they managed to screw even that up. =/

Even though she was framed of framing dexter (what?) she is still a CAPTAIN of the Police force, why wouldnt she be able to call back-up for a Call for Help ? wtf? Just because she framed dexter the POLICE wont help a Captain of the POLICE force? Is that how the police works in the US?

I'm so glad LaGuerta died, but it seems like there's so many ties to Dexter from her death. A bit sad there hasn't been much to do with Joey that past couple episodes though.

She didn't say anything, it was just wheezes/crying. Looking at it again I see how it sort of sounds like it, but it isn't.


I'd have to disagree... It definitely sounds like she murmurs out "I hate you". /r/Dexter says the same thing.



Rewatching it I can hear "I hate you". Gonna be interesting next season for sure.

After rewatching I can hear how her wheezing/crying sounds like that, but I'm pretty sure it's just wheezing/crying. In fact I'd bet on it.

Definitely an 'I hate you', she was just wheezing/crying as she said it

Top 3 season for me, two of my favourite characters got introduced (one killed) and far more Dexter development than usual. The writing was also several notches above the last few seasons. Loved the dark turn he's taken and how Deb's been believably sucked into it.

umm... no? They cut up her body and toss it into the ocean... She could have stood anywhere for all they know. But the angle and position of the bullet will show where she was standing. They never have to know she was shot.

Debra will snap in the next season, she's shit at dealing with things and this, this will freaking own her for life. She's gonna go alcohol/drugs/kill herself/ act out in some way next season and question is if she brings Dexter down with her. My bet is retired Angel won´t believe Laguerta just killed a guy and ran for it so he will look into shit and break Debra down.

I actually agree. It should of been the same amount of epicness as the "Are you a serial killer?" "Yes" scene. Or the first time it looked like Dexter was being arrested after Doakes took his slides. Yet they just seemed to breeze over it like it was nothing. They could really have done more with it.

The reason that she didn't call for backup is because she didn't want to risk her reputation by letting people know she was still trying to pin Dexter. She could have called for backup if she'd liked and the other officers would have showed up, but didn't want to.
