If you watch Dexter, and you have not seen this seasons finale, don't read this post. I purposely waited a little while though, so that I wouldn't spoil the ending for anyone who does watch.
Last week we watched the season six finale of Dexter with the Schlange's. Okay, so we didn't watch it with them, but we did watch it at our house at the same time that they were watching it at their house and we spent the whole episode texting back and forth. That's how we do dates these days. What? Commuting is expensive.
The episode moved at the pace that most others usually do, and things were pretty intense the whole time. It's always a nail biter. The texts that we were sending back and forth were mostly a string of predictions and an occasional "oh FUCK!" when something really good would happen.
The whole thing went by way too fast though, and when we realized that there was only a minute and thirty seconds left of the episode, I found myself a little baffled about how they planned on wrapping it up. He still hadn't killed the bad guy, and I was getting a little worried that it might not happen. As he usually does, he was taking time to explain to his victim the reasons that they were lying on his kill table before plunging a knife into their chest. This is always my favorite part. Then, as he was rambling on about how insane Travis was for thinking that the murders he had committed were all part of God's plan, Deb walked into the church where Dexter had set up his kill room.
At this point, I almost had a heart attack. Then, right as Dexter lifted his knife Deb walked in the room and watched him stab the doom's day killer through the chest.
I could not believe it.
With the show having two more seasons left, I am totally baffled. I thought that they would have waited until the last season to reveal who Dexter really is to the people around him. What are they going to do now??? I am seriously dying to see what happens in the next season, and now I have to wait in suspense until next September.
This is going to be a long damn year.
OMG! LURVE Dexter :) Yes, I was also SUPER shocked by Deb walking in on Dex but I am now uber excited for next season!!! I see this going one of two ways: Deb will have a breakdown and b/t this is her "realization" that she is in love with Dex (ugh), she will be sent off to a looney bin somewhere OR she will have some sort of breakthrough and join Dex in his vigilantism. I just hope they don't minimize it by having her "forget" what she saw.
ReplyDeleteMy theory is the same as your second one! I think that she is going to join forces with him and allow him to use more of the resources from the police station and keep it a secret because she is in love with him.
ReplyDeleteThat whole thing is weird to me!!
We'll have to keep in touch and chat after the new season starts!
