Dexter Season 5

[MKJ]

probably because boyd killed the other bitches. the other sickos assumed he had done the job already i suppose?

[obsidian]

so what happened to the dark passenger? also, anyone else note the absence of harry from the last eps?

Dexter is still trying to come to terms with the death of Rita, killing doesn't appease him in the same way that it used to. Her death actually affected him in ways he doesn't understand and is having a hard time getting back on track. This last kill was the first since Rita's death which satisfied his dark passenger. I think Harry and his usual careful precision is absent due to his crumbling personal life.

also, haven't the other conspirators found out about the roadkill collector's death yet?

They know he has mysteriously disappeared. That's why they (unsuccessfully) moved the bodies in the barrels. They know something is up but don't know if "roadkill" is dead or gone into hiding.

lol, good points

ffs the writing on this season is so uneven i'm having trouble differentiating between holes in the plot and holes in my attention

Outstanding post by noblidiot. Would bookmark and read again.

No homo, bro.

I think the latest episode is starting to put things back on the right track for Dexter. And the previews for next week make it look like everything's intertwined. Is Deb gonna figure out Dexter? If she does, will she keep the secret or bust him? How many seasons are left in the show? Hmm...

[Transient]

Normally I avoid them for exactly that reason. I just couldn't get to the remote quick enough this time, and I couldn't stop myself once I was halfway through watching them.

[MKJ]

good ep. it seems astor got some free acting classes in Orlando

jordan chase is creepy. I like it.
It's odd what kind of mistakes Dexter makes tho - Chase already displayed his superiour recon skills by mentioning both Rita and Harrison's name, yet Dexter won't be extra careful with the matter especially when his kids are in his house.

[Transient]

I don't get what Quinn sees in that twat waffle, Deb.

what was chase's motivation for cosying up to dexter though?

I've wondered about the same thing. Dexter should have known that Chase would be one dangerous guy from the very beginning, Chase probably intuitively suspected something a little "off" about Dexter. This should be an interesting cat and mouse game.

OH MY GOD LUMEN IS SUCH A GIANT BLUBBERING VAGINA. What happened to GRR I'LL KILL THEM ALL? Now she's hyperventilating louder than a jet engine and is completely unable to function when seeing, talking, or thinking about the bad guys.

[Transient]

I may be going out on a limb here, but maybe her inconsistency stems from the fact that she was kidnapped, tortured, and gang-raped over a long period of time? Just sayin'.

She only ever exhibited confidence when Dexter was in control of the situation.

[MKJ]

^quite
she thinks shes in a safehouse and now gets called by the guy who kidnapped her, on the landline no less
i'd be ffuu---- too

[seremtan]

peter weller is really laying on the sleaze for this liddy character

also, the whole debs "oh my fucking god you betrayed me" routine with her boyfriends is starting to get old

[xer0s]

This is getting good. Can't believe there's only two episodes left...

[bam!]

Isn't it obvious the finale will be Deb (perhaps also Quinn) figuring out Dexter's secret?

[Tsakali]

so how would that allow for anything other than the conclusion of the series?

[EtUL]

deb doesn't tell per some comments she made previous

[obsidian]

In the books, Deb finds out in the first "season".

[[xeno]Julios]

i'm guessing that by the end of the season, deb (and possibly quinn) know dex's secret, and quinn kills robocop which ties up that loose end.

you heard it here first.

[Transient]

If anyone's going to kill Robocop (and it's pretty obvious he has to die for the show to continue), it'll be Jordan or Lumen. My money's on Jordan, as I think he's trying to act out some sort of plan of his own right now, and I thought the guy would die in this episode rather than in the next one.

[feedback]

Either everyone finds out and is okay with Dexter or Lumen somehow gets pinned as the vigilante, she takes the fall to allow Dexter to keep doing what he does.

[xer0s]

^ this is it

[Transient]

Yeah, that makes the most sense. Methinks the writers may be backing themselves into a corner on this one.

[feedback]

That's all they know how to do. That and TENSIONNNN. TICK TICK TICK. THAT'S THE SOUND OF THE WRITERS OF 24 RUINING YOUR SHOW.
