Ashley Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 Plus.... The....strip club owner guy (forget his name) is going to find Dexter sooner or later and they showed Lewis' blood splatter onto Dexter's boat for a reason. Next season being the last seems to have ramped up the drama.
bob Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 (edited) Yep yep yep! I always forget that Dexter is only 12 episodes long. I normally get to episode seven or eight and think 'blimey this season is picking up quickly, they won't have anything left for the second half'. And then it hits me. Episode 3 was good, although not an awful lot happened in it. I'm surprised Lewis died, i always thought that there was something a lot more sinister about him still to come, but nope - just a whiney winger out to get revenge in a pranky way. EDIT: In other words he does this - Not what i was expecting. Edited October 15, 2012 by 130131301364
Ashley Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 As I said in my spoiler tags. I think he'll cause troubles for Dex in other ways.
Magnus Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 EDIT: In other words he does this - That was hilarious. And we were made to believe that he was an expert at ruining people's lives last week, too! Well, maybe Ashley is right and he'll get his revenge in death. Maybe that was his plan all along. I also can't believe Dexter was going to kill Lewis just for getting on his nerves last week. This is the same person who couldn't kill Doakes in season 2 because he wasn't a bad guy even though he figured out he was a serial killer!
Ashley Posted October 17, 2012 Posted October 17, 2012 Louis was made out to be great at ruining people's lives when it comes to computers. Pure grunt work? Obviously not so much. Dexter did loosen up the Code of Harry a few years ago. I know he still harks on about it and told Debs he only kills killers but it's not true. He's killed to protect himself before (e.g. the farmer when he went on his crazy adventures with Rudy in S5/S6 (forget which)) and even killed the guy in the bathroom out of grief. It's part of the series really, and something Debs pointed out: Dexter tells himself these things but he's human at the end of the day (as much as he'd argue otherwise) and is prone to contradiction. Anyone else think Louis looks like Dan Dare?
bob Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Just watched Episode 4: Pretty good, although i noticed a couple of discrepancies. Firstly, Spletzmann (sp?) hides the earring in a hankerchief in the glove compartment of his van, which Dexter finds in about 20 seconds, and yet the police, who we're told impounded the van, failed to find this earring?! Whoopsie daisy! Secondly, how did the big bad mobsters get the gun that killed Mike? I'm assuming Victor didn't take it to the airport, so where did he drop it off after shooting Mike? Otherwise, it was good!
Ashley Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Well bull guy (his new name...) was arrested and confessed, so I guess they didn't have to look through his van for evidence as they (thought) they had everything on him. They probably impounded it because it was there when they arrested him and needed to move it somewhere. I'd imagine if it was at his house they would have left it. As for the gun? Was it the actual one, or was it the the same make/model? If I recall he took off with it and I'm guessing dropped it somewhere (apartment?) and maybe they knew it was the same make/model and used that so that the forensics wouldn't figure it out. Or the guy (father or lover?) got it when he went to the flat, can't remember which scene came first.
Magnus Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 I'm pretty sure they said it was the gun that killed that guy from Dollhouse, so I guess they got their hands on it somehow? The scene with the longing look at the photograph came later, anyway. This episode really reminded me of what a terrible cop Quinn is. If only he were black, he'd be dead by now. Dexter keeps reminding me of Six Feet Under lately. Last week, the stripper mafia guy talked about how Dexter wasn't interested in looking at naked women, and I thought to myself, "well, of course he's not! He's ga- oh wait wrong show." And then they dressed him up as a funeral director this week.
Ashley Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 They said its "the same gun", doesn't mean it's the same serial number.
bob Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 Possibly about the gun, but that's still pretty shoddy police work not searching the van anyway! EDIT: Also, just being the same model of gun wouldn't stand up in court i don't think. Nowadays they can match the exact gun to bullets fired, so it would have to be the exact same gun to convict him of the murder...
Magnus Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 To be fair (in a way), the police force on Dexter sucks most of the time, so that's pretty consistent! My theory is that they all know that Dexter is a serial killer and that's why they never catch him. And sometimes they purposely fail to catch criminals because "Dexter will handle him." Maybe in the series finale, Debra will finally turn Dexter in. "Dexter's a serial killer!" she'll say through tears in her eyes, and the other cops will be all, "wait, you only just figured that out?" They said its "the same gun", doesn't mean it's the same serial number. Surely it means it's the same gun, though? :p Actually, I just checked and the exact quote was, "that's for you. It's the gun that killed the police officer."
ReZourceman Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 I wonder if they've been setting up Ray Stevenson to be the main bad guy in the final season~? Would make sense as his arc *appears* to be wrapping up for now. Unless something awesome and spectacular happens.
Ashley Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 Well he still has his cronies at his disposal, but it would be nice if a 'big bad' lasted two years.
bob Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 Can't remember if it was someone on here who predicted that: The blonde lady would turn out to be a murderer after all. Clearly there's something going on with her and Dexter beyond her just being another victim for her. Perhaps she'll become a big bad in the next season? Or become some sort of accomplice lover for him? That would be pretty cool.
Magnus Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 Or become some sort of accomplice lover for him? That would be pretty cool. Didn't they already do that plotline in season 5? :p I just want Dexter to kill her because I think Ashley's reaction would be hilarious.
bob Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 The amount of gifs posted would be devastating to my internets.
Ashley Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 Let's face it, other than Quinn anyone that has been introduced on the show has been killed off in the same year so I'm kind of expecting it.
Cube Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 I presume that you're all talking about Yvonne Strahovski, right?
Magnus Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 Horseface from the Mass Effect series, yes. And Ashley, that actress from 10 Things I Hate About You didn't die, so there may still be hope!
Cube Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 Because of Mass Effect, I can now say "I had sex with Yvonne Strahovski". I miss Chuck.
Ashley Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 Horseface from the Mass Effect series, yes. And Ashley, that actress from 10 Things I Hate About You didn't die, so there may still be hope! I completely forgot she existed to be honest.
Magnus Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 I think we should all just forget the last two seasons, and pretend that this is season 5. Because of Mass Effect, I can now say "I had sex with Yvonne Strahovski". More like, "I had sex with a digital woman that sort of looked like Yvonne Strahovski after being hit in the face with a frying pan." But I guess that's a bit long.
Ashley Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 [Yvonne Strahovski is] an incredible human being and a brilliant actress Speaking of Carpenter, she's been great this season. So Isaak and Victor; father/son or lovers? Not sure what angle they're going for.
Magnus Posted November 1, 2012 Posted November 1, 2012 Maybe they were just really good friends! I'd totally avenge your death, Ashley.
ReZourceman Posted November 1, 2012 Posted November 1, 2012 Definitely seems to be lovers.....that is how I took it. Age gap seems too small for father/son, and it all seemed too romanticised.
