Synopsis:

CKMorpheus

Sounds intense. That Miguel doesn't know what he's getting into.

wmansir

A good episode, but they need to get shit rolling. Like I said last week or the week before they need more cat and mouse. Whether that's putting Dexter in a jam or revealing the skin patch slayer and letting us see him do his dance. It still annoys me that Dexter isn't more concerned about who the slayer is. Whatever they do they need to jack up the tension beyond whether Dexter has made a new friend.

CKMorpheus

I believe that this is all set up to a nice big pay off. Dexter has never let me down, and I'm sure the final 5 episodes of the season will ratchet up the tension.

Agree, like the show but it does need to start moving. The foreshadowing is there though from Dexters's dad, he mentioned that bad things happen to people that get close to him. Miguel is as good as dead.

It would be a nice surprise to be wrong though...

kms_md

i agree and suspect it will be, as it has been before, at dexter's hand.

Drop

One of my favorite episodes of Dexter. The humor was great and Dexter's inner turmoil has never been better. Don't like the Deb CI relationship though.

I can't wait to next week's episode.

Yeah next weeks ep. looks great. Too bad Prado's fate is most likely known by a news story that spoiled a cast incident.

bluetoast

That news story doesn't reveal his fate, it just reveals certain actions he took part in.

wmansir

It doesn't even really do that. I was hoping Prado would pick up the knife in Dexter's dream sequence last night so I could dismiss that spoiler. It could still happen in a dream for all we know.

bluetoast

Ah yeah that too. I was also expecting the same "spoiler" moment, just to get it out of the way, but yeah....not quite yet.

kantonburg

I also hope it doesn't end just yet. I personally like the suspense Prado brings to Dexter's character. He's so unpredictable, yet he wants so much to be apart of Dexter's world.

DeputyDave

I haven't heard about any spoilers but if I had to guess I'd say Prado gets the taste and kills some one who doesn't fit in Dexter's "rules" and Dexter takes him out.

Phod

It looks like this might get addressed in next week's episode but one of my issues with this season is the fact that Prado never makes the connection that Dexter was the real Bay Harbor Butcher? I mean he has the exact same MO. Wouldn't it have come up at some point?

brainee

I think Miguel has made the connection (or at least strongly suspects). But it's understandably a delicate topic (especially considering that he's thinking about confronting a serial killer with his crimes), and he's waiting for the right time to bring it up. Which ...

paradicelost

That's been my opinion as well. My wife caught the end of it and I mentioned I really want to see Jimmy Smitts as a regular cast member but for some reason i see him wrapped in plastic before the end of the season..
Also i was hoping Margo Martindale might be on more often since the Riches got pulled.
Also those who have read the books, am i wrong in remembering some characters that are still around in the show that were killed in the first book.

Patman

Vince is always good for some laughs. I keep thinking Gianna will figure into all of this soon enough with the amount of time they spend on this budding romance between her and Angel.

wmansir

You are right.

Coral

I hope th Yuki/Quinn storyline storyline is going somewhere because it's really annoying. We get no info about what's going on until it's useless.

Deb/CI relationship is unneccessary.

Gianna got interested in Angel too quickly, especially knowing he likes the hookers. Maybe she's as pathetic as he is?

I like that once Freebo was killed, Dexter is not involved in that case. It's refreshing to have Dexter take a break from outsmarting his co-workers for a whole season again (other than the first few episodes with Freebo).

I'm getting tired of Deb's "if I make this bust I'll get promoted" motivation every season. And it seems that Deb is the only detective that can figure things out. What does everyone else at the station do?

Anyone else think the dead blonde chick who Albert Chung killed was played by Trish Stratus? It sure looks like her.

Camilla's logic is messed up, no? She won't take her life because she'll go to hell, but it's ok to ask someone to kill her instead? Isn't it the same thing basically?

Still loving the show.

Deftones

Great episode. I'm loving this season as much as season one. Setting Dex up with Miguel as an apprentice is a very cool storyline.
