Just watched ep. 2
- I don't like the Angel/Maria storyline at all. Probably because I like Angel and hate Maria. - I like John Lithgow a lot so far. He's a much better guest star than Jimmy Smits. - The dynamic between Quinn and Dexter seems to be heading towards Quinn becoming another doaks(sp?) - The last scene with Dexter trying to sleep, and the baby crying... FUCK
It's harder to watch this show now that I have to wait a week between episodes. 10/8/2009 12:48:47 AM |

I would say Lundy is going to die, but I think that'd be too predictable. More like he'll probly escape which will lead to being able to catch the killer... 10/11/2009 11:26:31 PM |

Naw Lundy is definitely toast. I'd be very surprised if he isn't the next kill. On another note -
***SPOILERS***
I was reading about shooting scenes for this season well before I found out what Lithgows role would be. And they were talking about Dexter and Lithgow going out in the woods together hunting or something. I'd be very interested to see how it gets to that point.

i've obviously missed a lot of stuff in the first 3 episodes. my husband had to explain to me why Debra's partner was buttering up Dexter with football tickets and such. i guess i missed that part! so i'm going to watch all 3 episodes again before next weekend cuz apparently i'm missing alot. and i don't get why Lundy would bite the big one, unless Trinity knows he has been following him all these years? 10/12/2009 9:12:06 AM |
dzags18 All American 5694 Posts user info edit post |
Because Lundy said the next kill was going to be an older man. And the preview shows the two meeting. 10/12/2009 9:43:03 AM |

Raleigh is where Michael C. Hall is from so i'm not surprised about that

I have read most of the books. Typically I like the books better than the show or movie (Harry Potter, DaVinci Code ect) but in this case the show is better. I love Michael C. Hall! He is perfect for the role.
I cannot wait for the next episode. I think it is going to be cool to see Dexter pick up where Lundy left off. 10/20/2009 2:01:56 PM |

*****SPOILER IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN EPISODE 4*****
I don't think it was Trinity. The shooter was dressed in all black and took Lundys wallet which is out of character for him. I don't think Trinity would break his code and shoot Deb and Lundy. I could be wrong though because in the preview for the next episode Dexter mentions he usually doesn't kill for revenge and then proceeds to research Trinitys killings. I think im reading into this a little much... 10/20/2009 3:12:37 PM |

I was talking w/ a friend and we both agreed that Lundy had a look of recognition on his face before it happened. 10/20/2009 8:44:43 PM |

I think it was just Trinity emulating the vacation killer out of convenience. Clearly Lundy was on to him and he had to do something - why not hop on some other killer's MO to get rid of him 10/21/2009 11:02:58 AM |
sylvershadow All American 7049 Posts user info edit post |
I think they could have made it more interesting if it hadn't been the trinity killer, but actually deb's bf who shot em, yet have dexter still think it's trinity. 10/26/2009 10:45:52 AM |

^^^ that could still happen. well, maybe not the boyfriend. but maybe it was quinn or some other random person we don't know about yet. it could be a good twist.
also, i noticed that trinity was yelling at the coffee guy while he was killing him. im assuming trinity killed his dad? 10/26/2009 8:49:52 PM |
thumper All American 21574 Posts user info edit post |
from what i can figure, Trinity began his 3some killings by killing his own family 30 years ago. his sister (in the bathtub), his mother (falling to her death), and then his father (beat to death). so that's why he always kills in 3's. so he was yelling at the guy while he was killing him as if he were yelling at his own father, "you did this to me", "it's your fault", or whatever else he was yelling.] 10/26/2009 9:04:02 PM |

Last nights episode was pretty good. I am sick of the Angel and Maria relationship shit. I was getting annoyed with Rita but when she handed Dex the key at the end my faith was renewed. I absolutely LOVE Trinity and the relationship development between Dexter and Trinity. The way Trinity calls Dexter Kyle is odd but I am sure that it has nothing to do with anything. I am interested to see where this Quinn thing is heading. I feel like something huge will happen with him. Maybe Dexter will kill him?

Trinity is calling Dexter "Kyle" because that's how he introduced himself to Trinity the first time they met after church.
Also, the episodes are getting better and better. I love the fact that Dexter and Trinity are becoming "friends", and the scene where Dexter picked up Trinity's sister's remains and was just standing there with them - sooooo awkward!! OMG! I was cringing with excitement on the couch.
Phenomenal episode, and I think it's only gonna get better! 11/2/2009 11:09:12 AM |
panthersfan3 Starting Lineup 67 Posts user info edit post |
^ I know. Kyle Butler was how he introduced himself. I'm just saying the way Trinity says Kyle seems odd. Almost as if it is foreshadowing that Trinity may figure out Dexter isn't "Kyle." 11/2/2009 11:51:14 AM |
agentlion All American 13936 Posts user info edit post |
pretty good episode. I loved the scenes with Dexter at the therapist and sitting at the table - Michael C. Hall did a great job, especially with him sitting at the table holding hands, and he though "people do this?...."
I hate to do it, but I have to nit-pick some of the story lines. 1) It took Dexter way too long to figure out Arthur's past and motivation. Supposedly he had been trailing this guy and digging up dirt on him (he already checked all the criminal and DNA databases before Masuka did), but he never ran across the small fact that his sister, dad and mom were all killed? Never popped up on his radar, until he decided to do a search for "survived by Arthur Miller"? (forgot his last name) 2) It feels like bullshit how much the rest of the detectives are dismissing Lundy's and Deb's suspicions about Trinity, to the point where they apparently don't even think the guy exists, much less that he is in Miami. Especially after the bludgeoning case, nobody is willing to look back at the pattern and admit Lundy may have been on to something? Furthermore, if 2 cops are shot outside a hotel at 5AM, they would never chalk that up to "random chance" like they are with the Vacation Killer. They're doing a poor job of investigating that.
Anyway... I feel like Dexter might be getting too close to Trinity. He's not giving Trinity enough credit to see through the Kyle facade. Wouldn't surprise me if Trinity starts researching Dexter, and the shit will hit the fan when he figure out Dexter is a cop 11/3/2009 12:42:41 AM |

I love the mental commentary Dexter has. When he's with Rita, when he's with his sister....it's hilarious! 11/3/2009 9:10:05 AM |

I would be very disappointed with Trinity if he hadn't already figured out Dexter's game, especially if he knew how close Deb was to Lundy. Also very suspicious that he gives Dexter the hammer. 11/3/2009 1:04:32 PM |

is everybody still watching?
I'm intrigued by this season, but it's different than the past season Dexter's as there's less episode-by-episode drama and suspense and more of a gradual build-up until the eventual Dexter-Trinity show down.
I'm not complaining, I think this season is great although I wish it had more Masuka. 11/12/2009 10:14:38 PM |
agentlion All American 13936 Posts user info edit post |
yeah, still watching. Wondering how far Quinn is prepared to follow Dexter.
also, overall... is it just me, or are they pulling a lot of dramatic, soap-opera type stuff this season - and not just in the love-story plotlines nobody cares about like Angel the Lt. But it seems like there is a ton of soft-focus, soft-lighting scenes (and not just because Dexter's dad keeps showing up), overly dramatically acted dialogue scenes, Dexter's monologues that are too heavy-handed, etc. I don't recall if previous seasons were like this or not. 11/12/2009 11:54:20 PM |
thumper All American 21574 Posts user info edit post |
what a great episode! just when you think it can't get better - it does! i love the story of Rita and the next-door neighbor. i love the fact that Trinity confessed (sorta) to Dexter and that they've become best buddies in Trinity's eyes. and i love that Deb figured out Trinity didn't shoot her. i have a theory on that - perhaps it's the reporter girlfriend, shooting an FBI agent to get some press? ]

Yeah, my vote was for Anton (sp?) as well, but my wife thinks it's the reporter. She does seem pretty desperate for a story, and the height would work. Looks like thumper had the same idea too.11/18/2009 1:21:22 PM |

If the killer was Masuka's height, it was probably a woman.
My first thought was HOLY SHIT WHAT IF RITA IS A KILLER TOO? but that's just ridiculous. I do think something's up with her - she's gonna get it aaaawn with that neighbor or something. 11/18/2009 4:47:50 PM |

does anyone else wonder WHY deb moved into dex's apartment? seems too convenient. i think he's going to end up back there somehow. a wild theory of mine is that deb ends up finding out about dexter when he kills whoever shot her (i like the reporter theory and hate that bitch) and has issues with it but eventually accepts him and helps him with his cover at work and with rita. anyone with me on that? 11/18/2009 7:08:36 PM |
Money_Jones Ohhh Farts 12521 Posts user info edit post |
because she needed a new place to live and Dexter had to get rid of the place, i don't see whats suspicious about that 11/18/2009 7:10:07 PM |
agentlion All American 13936 Posts user info edit post |
yeah, of all the things that are "convenient" on this show, Deb moving into Dexter's old apartment, which Rita and Deb just found out about soon after Deb was shot and moved out of Anton's place, isn't too high on the improbability list.
If something is "too convenient" in the last episode, how about the eye-roller of an ending where two dozen eager Christian-builders show up magically on the roof to help pull Arthur back up, where seconds earlier, the ever-so-careful Dexter was planning on killing him. 11/19/2009 1:57:59 AM |

^ yeah i just watched it last night, and I thought the exact same thing. Also, it seemed WAY later in the morning based on the amount of sunlight when they arrived versus when dexter first sneaks up on trinity.
As for the apartment thing, I remember deb begging dexter to let her have it when he first got engaged. Of all of the small hole in the series plot, this is pretty airtight. 11/19/2009 11:59:09 AM |
