But tension is great isn't it?! Like on the preview I saw where Lumen is at home on the phone with Dex and she's freaking out because SOMEONES COMING IN THE DOOR *end preview*

Then the episode actually happens and the apparent chain of events is:

Astor and friend get drunk.
Astor and friend take a cab to the house from the bus station.
Astor, breaking into her own house with a friend there, has her friend help. She has both a front door and back door key, and drunkenly tells her friend "Alright, you go around back and I'll go around front and we'll both jiggle the handles for a while and then push on the door. After that, then we'll unlock each door together to come into the empty house, because


the writers suck with stupid shit like that. Dex was a great show that's now something worth keeping on in the background while I cook or work on something.

Dexter can't kill Robocop any more than he could kill Doakes, it's against his rules. Lumen is gonna die, Deb even said something along the lines of, "you can't come back from [torture] like that"

Aye but he already broke the rules this season and besides a bit of Harry in the astor episode not too much otherwise. I still haven't seen this weeks, been trailing a bit.

Isn't the first rule "Don't get caught"?

I just hope it isn't horribly disappointing. The show has been sloppy this year with some real facepalm moments IMO, but it's picked up a bit near the end and with the right finish could make for a decent season. I'll have to go thru them again, but so far I'd put this as the worst season behind 3.

lol @ debs "there's a partial footprint here". so that's how policemajiggy is done :tard:

i think al-qaida will fly a plane into the final episode, everyone will die except dexter and lumen who were in another episode all along but bin laden didn't know because of the misleading camera angles. something like that

Yeah it's getting pretty loose with the code. There's basically none.

Liddy's death was quite an anticlimax.

Will Quinn now be framed for Liddy's death? Blood on the shoe, fingerprints on the car...

Dexter is just a faggot if he lets Quinn take it for Liddy's death.

yeah , this season is doing some fundamental character traits slaughtering. It's like they missed out on the protagonist 101 class. They took everything the character stands for and through it out the window....in a sense they went full retard.

as someone said before: tick tick tick, that's the sound of the 24 producer wrecking your show.

Regardless, looks like shit is about to finally start getting interesting. Can't wait to see Dex/Doakes part deux, likely with Deb right in the middle this time.

Liddy's death looked like self-defense to me. He didn't just come at Dexter with the knife, but tried to stab him in the face while putting all his weight behind it. The whole "scuffle" made no sense. Liddy's an ex-cop who probably still has his gun, so why didn't he sit just out of attack range and simply control Dexter with it?

Dunno...like I said, the show is still good but the writing is getting lazy.

Final season will most likely be Deb discovering who Dexter is.

the preview was edited to make it look like that, so much that I doubt it. I predict the gloved hands dropping the knife are in fact Lumen's.
