good call. i think he became expendable when they brought mike on. good side story to check out for the remaining three episodes is how lagureta ****s with matthews and deb. and if debra doesn't get the slightest bit of hint on who dexter really is before this season ends, then this whole season is a waste of time. i think the psychiatrist will help deb get there. also the phone dexter gave travis will come back to bite him in the ass.
It is the intern. He has been learning the "killing" side for his game. And he must know something about Dexter - thus his infatuation. Also, Dexter commented about how Geller was learning from the ITK with the draining of the blood of the professor - it is the intern who is learning from ITK, not Gellar/Travis - they would want nothing similar to an evil killer since they are righteous. And the intern has to be the one who stole Dexter's car outside the church - that is the only "Geller" action that has tangible evidence. Overall, I agree, writing is off and show has produced too many WTF moments with regards to logic and such. Dexter is really stupid this season - the college dumbness, turning his back repeatedly on Travis, the church dumbness, the "oh a 60-something year old man moved this heavy oak table, climbed down the trap door, and then asked God to move it back for him over the door to try to avoid me." Dumb dumb dumb dumb. How awesome was it when Dexter axed the chain for the manacles, Travis bends down, and suddenly the bolted manacles are off?
Yup. He's basically trying to be what Dexter is, without Dexter's "code". My guess is he's a "serial killer" fanboy. That explains the ITK tie-in. His motive for killing the professor is simple... a perfect trial run. With access to knowledge of Doomsday's next tableau, all he had to do was create that scene and everyone would assume that it was Gellar who killed him since Gellar had motive. The cuts point to his obsession with serial killers past. The perfect crime.
Dexter getting out of the cellar of the church was a matter of pushing on some doors really hard..... could they not come up with better writing than that. There isn't even any scenes of Marshall realizing Gellar isn't real. No scenes of a psycho realizing he is a psycho. That could make for great tv. weak. I am only half way through the episode but am so disappointed I had to share.
Ya lately its been really easy for Dexter with all of these clues. Like finding the boat, that girls address, escaping the church, kicking the garbage and finding the two substances which were combined. Oh well still not bad, its heating up.
that intern guy is such a pu$$y. unless he knows that dexter is a serial killer, i dont see why he would cry about dexters opinion on his game. for christs sake, dexter's wife was killed by serial killer.
Writing is so sloppy. The whole show had issues, but the capper was the end when he "anonymously" calls 911 to report a DDK sighting. Uh, you know they record those right? You know the police will want to hear it, right? You know the police really know your voice, right?
I'm guessing and hoping its from a disposable cell. Matching the voice to him seems a little iffy. But yeah...overall the writing is definitely sloppier then it used to be.
This show is so poorly written it requires an inner monologue and an imaginary friend to explain the plot, which is getting dumber by the episode.
Agreed. The show is getting ridiculous. I can look past the questionable logistics of capturing victims, finding impossible to find hidden clues, etc but **** has just gone full r****d lately. Makes the whole Kyle Butler idea seem fool-proof.
The show doesn't bother to give much explanation on how Marshall became schizo (one or two lines about his parent's death), he just is. Marshall realizing he was hallucinating for half the season seems to invoke no reaction in the character. How do these basic mistakes get by the show's head writer. I haven't checked, but I am gonna assume there was a staff change since the first season.
How many people has dex killed this season? Two of them were self defense... (the guy in Nebraska and the guy hanks recruited)
I thought todays episode was pretty damn good. Debra has to find Travis's phone with Dexter's video message before the end of the season finale.
I posted about this a few weeks back when I saw Dexter giving Travis the phone, it was a really unusual detail, and now with that video message it's definitely going to end up in Debra's hands. The season will end with her watching that, IMO. This season has been absolutely terrible, predictable and sloppy.
I've been watching the eps in spurts. Haven't had problem with the show (it's 6 seasons of the same thing people), but I'm not expecting writing better than sex either.
Man so many whinny people (including myself). But for the most part its been a good season with good surprises. Don't think too much into every little detail and just enjoy. The finales going to be really good. That story with deb is now really awkward lol.
i dont like the dex and deb hooking up story...i hope it dies soon. im very intrigued by the intern. he knows dexter's secret
I think that Deb is going to find the video and lose all romantic feelings for Dex. I really hope that storyline will end as soon as possible. Lots of predictable moments in this season but I'm still enjoying the ride.
