Dexter Discussion Thread *Spoilers*

[SwedishHeat]

Quinn is definitely going to get pinned for the murder of Liddy with that drop of blood on his shoe

Quinn will get fingered for Liddy's death. Quinn will know it was Dexter. Quinn will have to choose to expose that he was investigating Dex, which gives Dex motive to kill Liddy, which would therefore trash Quinn's relationship with Deb, or keep his mouth shut, and hope he's exonerated.

Dex will HAVE to do what he can do put Liddy's death on Quinn. How will Dex deal with the guilt of an innocent man doing time for a murder that Dex committed??

Or Lumen will kill Jordan and say she killed Liddy because he was getting too close, and she'll keep the secret. And Deb will just have to deal with the fact that they couldn't find the vigilante's partner.

Man, the end of the preview for next week's finale was insane! The next seven days are gonna be loooooong as hell.

If Dex pins the murder on Quinn, then i'll hate his character forever. He's not the best person...but he does try. And he's not a terrible person deep down....I think he had a feeling that Quinn wasnt behind this after all....I hope so. Quinn's a good guy. Unless he pulls a 180 and turns into a total prick.

Who knows. Maybe Quinn can know the secret too. Maybe he can be Dex's inside acomplace. Could score some points with Deb if Quinn and Dexter are somewhat friends....

He was happy to pin it on Doakes in season 2 and he was Quinn to the power of 1,000,000! One of the best cast members in the show ever!

I reckon it will be interesting to see how that goes down... 7 days away! Feels like such an epic wait!

 

[CelticPredator]

But...Doakes was a creepy stalker. He went way over the line. Quinn grazed the line, and backed out. He's not the crazy sociopath Doakes was.

He's a serial killer bro.

The only reason he kills "criminals" and not random "innocent" people is because his adopted father/mentor Harry (a cop BTW) made it a rule. Since Harry knew cops wouldn't go that extra mile to find/investigate missing scum bags. But make no mistake, Dexter is no different than any other serial killer/murderer. No different than John Wayne Gacy, Jeffrey Dahmer, Ted Bundy, etc.

Quinn grazed the line, and backed out. He's not the crazy sociopath Doakes was.

Quinn's still a dirty cop.

 

[CelticPredator]

Dude...it's a TV show. I consider Dexter a hero. No different then how people consider The Punisher a hero. He kills people who do deserve to die.

And Quinn is a dirty cop....but how the ____ does that make me hate him? He steals money? Whoopy do. He has to rape babies or kill children to get me to hate him. He's totally awesome now.

 

[Dark Passenger]

I really can't see Quinn taking the fall for Liddy. I'm not really sure if anything will come from that drop of blood on Quinn's shoe. I am really growing to like Quinn, hopefully he just ignores the fact that Dexter killed Liddy.

I'm crossing my fingers for Lumen's safety.

 

[die]

Man, I kinda hated to see Robocop go out like that. I was kinda hoping he'd be around next season, yeah, I knew that wouldn't happen but I still had hopes!

So, Jordan Chase killed that chick last night and left his fingerprints on the weapon and his own blood at the scene. Wonder if Dexter can somehow pin Robocop's murder on Chase, too? Also, gotta believe that the blood on Quinn's shoe will play a role, possibly Robocop's murder being pinned on him. Wonder if Deb will be the one to find the bloody shoe?

Great show last night though...not as epic as last week's episode, but still was awesome.

 

[Devil_666]

Dude...it's a TV show.

That's a weak argument and a cop out. ALL the discussion in here suspends disbelief, so why pull the "It's a TV show" now!? If that's the case there's no need to discuss any aspect of Dexter because its just a TV show. Will Dexter get caught? Who cares, it's a TV show. Why did Dexer do this or that? Who cares, it's a TV show.

 

[Dark Passenger]

My comments on the teaser from next week. May contain spoilers.

Spoiler

I think the hand dropping the knife is Jordan's. It looks like a button shirt and he is wearing a tie, if you pause it. You can also see a Hand in the air on the right, looks like a woman's. If it's Dexter, why would the woman's (Lumen's likely) hand be up?

 

[Bustajesse]

I hope Dexter doesn't pin Liddy's murder on Quinn. I will lose all respect for him if he does. It still makes me angry to this day that he let Doakes be known as the BHB.

 

[die]

Wonder if Dexter will pin it on Jordan Chase? and then Quinn will just keep quiet about it?

Dexter heard the phone call between Liddy & Quinn, he knows Quinn's heart isn't in it and he knows Debra really likes Quinn.

Seems like the perfect set-up.

I just hope Lumen doesn't die this season. Still wondering where they'll go with that.

Exactly!


But we still care because we enjoy watching it. But it's still a TV show. I would hope if there was someone out there like Dexter, we would cheer him on! Dexter is the hero of our times.

I'm ALREADY dreading the wait between seasons. Ugh, every season I forget how to shut off my "Sunday is new Dexter!" mode.

These theories make a lot of sense.

 

[RICEaRONI]

pinning Liddy's murder on Chase makes absolutely no sense.

pinning it on Quinn is a perfect way to get that jackass off the show.

and I hope Lumen doesn't die, even though that seems like the direction its going in.

 

[cokebabies]

I'm wondering if Quinn will turn into more of the flipside of Doakes... someone who knows (at least some of) what Dexter gets up to, but doesn't pursue it / have something against it.

Quinn seems like someone who wouldn't actually be against the concept of a vigilante. He went after Dexter because he thought Dexter killed his wife. But if it becomes clear that Dexter is a vigilante, I think he'll back off for that reason in addition to all the Deb-related reasons. We already saw that while she might not fully support it (though we haven't been shown she doesn't), at the very least Deb understands the revenge killings, to the point of perversely romanticizing them. Should that concept come up between Deb and Quinn, it could only further serve to soften any opinion Quinn might have towards vigilanteism (especially since he seems willing to drop almost any pretenses in order to get Deb back).

Of course, Dexter killing Liddy is the elephant in that plot's room. So it'll be interesting to see where that goes.

Maybe they will think Liddy was looking into Chase?

I'm liking Quinn for some reason. I don't think he's going to rat Dexter out.
