Yea, I laughed about the reporter being the shooter - but that certainly seems to be where they're going.

I like how they keep spinning Trinity in different directions - his true psychosis is in direct contrast to Dexter's controlled sociopathology. The preview from next week looks intriguing and we see that Trinity isn't the perfect dad that Dexter thinks he is.

Yeah, I don't like that spin either...and it'll be too convenient if she ends up being Trinity's next victim as alluded to in the previews. That said, I'm glad they stuck to their guns and didn't make Trinity the shooter. It would have been better off if the Vacation Killers were the shooters with a wrong place, wrong time/random act of violence spin.

I'm going to put my cards on the table.
Trinity's son is the shooter.
Right height
Controlled by his father
He is the Son of a serial killer.
Dexter is worried that his son will follow in his foot steps, seeing how Trinity's son has turned out could heighten Dexter's fears

Thats a sound Theroy DL, if the son thinks dad can get away with it then why can't I and there is that nagging fear Dexter has about his son
 
Hmm, the son does make sense - he KNOWS his father is the serial killer and goes after Lundy after the article comes out.

However that doesn't sit with the preview for next week - "you should have let him die!"

And what's with all the Rita hate? Perhaps the fact that I LOVE Julie Benz has undue influence, but I don't get where the hate is coming from.

Same here i think she's fine. :confused:

He also said he was the best dad in the world. I think Trinity's perfect life is showing massive cracks for Dexter now. We might even find out that Trinity is mentoring his son, it's would seem to be like the Harry/Dexter relationship, but with the intentions of it having a darker outcome.
If I'm wrong and it turns out to be the reporter, then going by the preview, she could be Trinity's daughter from a previous relationship
and is protecting him by getting a job as a reporter. I know that one is pretty out there, but you never know with this show. That's why i'm a massive fan.
And don't get me wrong Julie Benz is gorgeous, but the character of Rita needs to get off her high horse.
 
So does everybody feel that it's gotta be either the reporter chick or Trinity's son?
 
Yeah, those are the only two choices. The shooter is said to be about Matsuka's height (for some reason I think they said the shooter was about 5'4'...did they state that or am I imagining things?).

It would be total BS to introduce a new character this late into the season, and would reek of deus ex machina if they did.
 
Julie Benz is hot!

I think in Seasons 1 & 2 she was so very important to Dexter becoming more human. In Seasons 3 & 4 she's just not as important as the other things happening to Dexter on his road to becoming more human.

The Problem: They've taken the soft-spoken self-conscious damaged Rita that we used to like and turned her into a nagging high-maintainance desperate housewife.

I see absolutely no reason whatsoever to suspect that the Trinity killings and Lundy's murder are connected. That's the mistake the police are making, when they really should be looking at them as separate incidents.

If the reporter's guilty, then she's doing it purely for self-promotion.

I just think it's interesting that Trinity knows where the reporter lives.
 
Wait, maybe I missed something. How do we know this?

Preview for next week's episode shows her opening the door to her place and Trinity's at the door. She has a look of trepidation/fear that's intriguing. She shouldn't know who Trinity is, so why does she have that expression on her face?

He did have a really creepy look on his face when she opened the door. If he looked at me like that, I think I would be aprehensive myself...

Ah. We don't get the previews for upcoming episodes up here; the show is broadcast by the Movie Network as we don't have Showtime.

It's entirely possible that Trinity will be going after her specifically because she killed Lundy. Some psychological theories postulate that sociopaths unconsciously want to get captured or punished, which is why they leave clues behind, sometimes even without realizing it.

From his encounter with Lundy, it looked like Trinity actually recognized that this could be the man to finally punish him for his crimes, so the fact that he was murdered ruined his chance at getting the punishment he feels he deserves. So, he goes after Lundy's killer for interfering with his plan.

Meh, it's a theory.
 
Trinity looked very angry when Christine opened the door. There are probably a dozen different possibilities of where that one is really going. There's a possibility he could be angry at her for interfering with a masterplan he has or they could have some personal history that will come out of it or it may be something completely different. The show can be so misleading with the previews, you just never know.

Speaking of misleading, Rita probably won't actually kiss the neighbor. Looks like they cut the clip short right before she pulls away...but then again, maybe not.:monkey4
