Dexter Discussion Thread *Spoilers*

[DinoLast]

I have to say so far this season has been on top form and a bit of an improvement on season 3 which was still amazing.
I'm finding the Trinity killer fascinating, and I think he's such a great character that he could have a show of his own. I guess that's all down to Lithgow who is brilliant in playing Trinity. Thank goodness his Wife talked him in to taking the role.
I just found this out for Sunday's episode.

Tempted to learn how the Trinity Killer has evaded capture, Dexter begins to make mistakes as he deviates from his protective "code," leading to a plot twist in Sunday's episode, "Slack Tide."

Can't wait.

It could very well be that Dexter learns that you can be a murderer and still have a normal son, very good point.

I think's it's pretty safe to say that TK's mom's death was a suicide & the dad's was a murder. The sister's death also would appear to be possibly sexual in nature (based on the recreated crime from the start of this season and the scene with him & his wife in the tub).

I can't help but feel like that would be too cut & dry for a conclusion to Dexter, though. It's gotta be more epic, hopefully.

I'm just hoping that the shooting of Lundy & Debra plays more of a role than just a distraction. Last season's Skinner himself didn't play much of a role, but the situation Dexter was in did. He actually experienced fear. He was afraid he wouldn't ever see his son and get to raise him. So, it was very important to the character development.

Well, the shooting of Lundy/Deb I think is more of a distraction already. It led Dexter to want revenge on Trinity, but he seemed to have forgotten it because he wants to learn from him

 

[die]

Looks like Quinn is gonna be more of a distraction as well. The show definitely used to be much more tense with Doakes on Dexter's trail, looks like that's the plan for Quinn.

 

[mosaicsquare]

I thought that Quinn seemed like the replacement Doakes as soon as I saw him. His beef with Dexter is less tense though and Desmond Harrington doesn't really seem menacing enough to be a threat in Dexter's life.

 

[DinoDB1975]

Yeah, Doakes is way higher on the bada$$ scale than Quinn is. The second season of Dexter is still my favorite season of all because of the James Doakes/Dexter interaction.

 

[Chimera 1]

Dexter was really good last night!! I think Trinity is looking to put "Kyle" in the casket for getting to close. It is getting interesting.

 

[DinoDB1975]

Some one mind giving a quick recap of last night's episode? I DVRed it and ended up watching it around 1:00/2:00 in the morning and was half-asleep at the end. Dexter killed the photographer, but Miami-Dade ended up bringing in his assistants for the murders, right? I remember seeing this, but the details are fuzzy.

Yeah Dexter jumped the gun on that one. He killed an innocent man, although the guy seemed really disturbed anyway.

Spoiler

Deb got the ok to investigate trinity. Trinity and Dexter aka Kyle went and cut down a tree that trinity then made into a coffin. Quinn is keeping a close eye on Dexter and Deb also gave up the hunt for the woman her Dad was sleeping with.

 

[DinoDB1975]

Thanks, I remember a majority of what happened before the last 15/20 minutes but

Spoiler

what evidence did Miami Dade PD have on the assistant? I'll have to rewatched this episode later tonight.

 

[Seditionary]

I really hate quinn. Him showing up at that club was...unnerving. This whole episode made me uneasy, what with Dexter messing up like he did. The look on him and his father's faces was chilling.

I did like how they set up the deer as sort of a foreshadowing of dexter murdering an innocent. He killed them both in the same fashion. The deer got in the way of dexter and arthur's path as did the photographer

This season is definitely going very strong.

 

[-jay-]

Yeah i can't stand Quinn either hope he does something so Dex can kill him.

Great episode again can't wait for the next one.

 

[DinoLast]

I wonder if turns out the Photographer did the murders with the other guy?
I'm not sure what to make of the casket? Must be part of his ritual before he kills again?
Also if Trinity can not bring himself to kill the deer, maybe he can't kill outside of his code?
That is making me think Lundy's killer might be somebody else, and Dexter will find this out, as from next weeks preview he seems to be getting so close to Trinity

Spoiler

he gets a confession out of him

 

[die]

So, does Dexter have to kill himself now?

That would've been a great final episode for the series.


as for the coffin, anybody think it's possible that Trinity is planning on it being for himself?

 

[DinoLast]

So, does Dexter have to kill himself now?

I think that he realises that he must listen to his inner voice/ Harry, and not deviate from the code. I bet it does not last long though knowing how the show keeps you on the edge of your seat.
As for Quinn my guess is his future is not looking too rosy if he's going up against Dex. Doakes came out second best and he was twice the man Quinn is

 

[die]

Doakes was going after Dexter because his instincts told him that Dexter was not what he appeared to be. Quinn seems to be after Dexter just to get some dirt on him to make things even between the 2 of them (since Dexter knows Quinn is taking money).

Doakes is definitely more awesome than Quinn!

It does seem like Quinn and Debra are getting closer over the past few episodes, so things with Dexter & Quinn may get even more hectic.

 

[barryo]

i hate the Quinn....HATE !!!...
die.........i think trinity is making the coffin for himself......i think he realizes with lundy being so close that he realizes he isnt as untouchable as he thought he was and maybe envisioned his own death. who knows with these whacky serial killer types......

So very true i hope it's bye bye to Quinn soon? even his face pisses me off.

 

[Seditionary]

I think things are going to end badly for Quinn one way or another. Hopefully that reporter chick gets the boot sometime soon, too.

 

[El Skutto]

I noticed something...disconcerting this past week. That reporter chick? She looks exactly like Lance Bass in a wig.
