Started 2 months ago by MrX

But he's keenly aware that times like these aren't meant to last. When Miami Metro discovers a string of murders connected to a prominent photographer, Dexter sees an opportunity for a clean ...

From the preview last week, Spoiler: They showed Dexter and Trinity out in the woods together, with Dexter contemplating killing Trinity with an axe.

Woah. First innocent murdered. My wife and I both called it once Dex murdered the photographer. I wonder how this will affect him. He constantly tries to get away from Harry's code, but it keeps coming back to bite him in the ass.

Can't say I'm thrilled with the Quinn storyline. Doakes II?

Not digging the Quinn storyline either. But wow, I can't believe Dexter finally killed an innocent man (although he was lucky with Jimmy Smits' ...

The Doakes II thing got me too; however I think the personalities and motivations of the two detectives are different and its a reasonable avenue to take. Plus there was the hint of a Deb-Quinn hookup, which makes sense for their characters being so alike and how it would muddy the situation for Dexter. Didnt like how the preview (possibly) spoiled the intent of Trinity's woodshop project.

It strikes me as kind of careless for Dexter to antagonize Quinn or hold things like him seeing Quinn take the money over him. He's already been through this kind of thing once before, and should realize this will only attract attention to himself.

I loved those Lithgow scenes--especially the one near the end of the episode where he is working on his "project." Angel/Laguerta is becoming the most annoying subplot this season. Both actors are being given very poor material/lines especially David Zayas. I'm kinda surprised how quick they seemed to get rid of the Deb/past CI of Harry investigation. I see Quinn as Doakes II as well--...

I found the fact that Arthur's son is in ROTC to be an interesting little bit of info, which could play into some theories from past episode threads.

Well, it was about time, with all the domesticated Dexter stuff getting in the way of Dexter's nocturnal activities, Dexter finally got a little too smug about his CSI skills and snuffed out the wrong guy. Quinn just never has gelled with me as a character, and he's bit of detailing Dexter's every move is going to end up badly for him. Trinity also confuses me, the season-long arc of ...

I'm thinking the same thing -- that there's more to his cycle than just the three kills. Maybe he's even considering Dexter as his next victim!

I don't know if it's intentional or not, but the Dexter/Trinity scenes are awkward with Trinity's sudden mood changes and Dexter just randomly asking questions.
