i wasn’t expecting to see lila back glad to see her back i haven’t found much interviews or anything of jaime that’s recent she seemed to have been out of the spotlight for years so it’s great to see that she came back doing some dexter content in 2026!
what else was the point of this scene if we weren’t gonna see mermaid debra again and her crossover episode with spongebob?
doakes couldn’t do it, liddy couldn’t do it, laguerta couldn’t do it, batista couldn’t do it, nobody else still alive in miami will be able to do it
it’s in the hands of walter the inside dog now…
(he’s still alive, he told me that)
julie benz (rita’s actress) starred in saw V which was released in theaters the same year/time this episode aired
i noticed this when i was rewatching s3 but then i started to rewatch the SAW films and it made me think of this again
i love SAW & dexter so this was really cool to me not sure if it was intentional or not lol but i love it. also love rita’s face when deb mentioned it lol
lumen ann pierce
rewatching s5 and lumen is a very underrated character. i really loved her character here as a survivor who haunts down her abusers with the help of dexter. she was very well written. i hate she’s rarely acknowledged or people in the dexter fandom rarely talk about her.
also really loved julia stiles as lumen she was the star of the season showed how much of a good actress she is. 10 things i hate about you is one of my favorite rom-coms ever and what i recognized her from when i saw her first show up on season 5. her character in that movie is so different than lumen which shows her range as an actress.
anyone else love lumen? she holds a special place in my heart.
one of the best dexter seasons/shows ever
the actor behind one of the best and most beloved villains/characters from the show
why didn’t biney & doakes take a picture with them?
is that what biney is called “rudy” because he’s rude?
is he the bay harbor bottom?
what connection did doakes think dexter had with brian since he said to dexter that he knows he’s connected to the ice truck killer
did he think dexter was brian’s accomplice or assisting him like there’s no way he would’ve found out they were brothers
i know he listened to the shipping yard massacre tapes but i still don’t know what he thought honestly. doakes is a very smart man, and i think he can put two and two together that laura is brian’s mother and that she’s talking to dexters dad so it brings a connection to both brian and dexter
can anyone help me out? i rewatched S1 & 2 about 2-3 weeks ago and i still have this question on my mind what do you think? i might delete the post after i get some answers i just want to talk to some real people about this and not google which has been nothing but AI slop lately
they both loved their family, their lady and protective of their sibling and both have occupations that help save lives and bring joy to the world (biney a doctor and arthur a deacon)
dexter how could you be so evil? 💔
does she work for I.C.E?
times i do remember he cried:
when brian died
after rita died
when debra died ??? my memory is kinda bad here but i am positive he did
any other times?
rewatching s3 rn
is s3 the season where he kills outside the code the most in one season? he killed 3 people who aren’t killers
oscar prado (miguel’s brother)
nathan (guy stalking astor)
camilla figgs
though nathan isn’t a killer he still deserved it for being a you know what
or did he kill more in other seasons? but i feel after season 3 he only killed like one person who didn’t fit the code each season but this season i noticed he killed 3 which is a lot
she wanted it too
my two problems
lila kidnaps astor and cody and tries to burn them alive but they never show rita’s feelings about it going in S3. rita is the type of mother to be worried for those kids, but they seem to just ignore that. also they make astor and cody forget all about it. honestly this was such a pointless plot it felt so forced
dexter then goes to paris where lila goes to escape miami and dexter kills her? idk how he would know her exact location or how he would dispose her body. honestly lila should have survived and revisited in another season where dexter can kill her properly instead of a rushed exit. i understand they had to kill lila off because it’s satisfying because we’re supposed to hate her and root for dexter to get rid of her but i wish her exit didn’t feel so rushed.
but mainly like WHY RITA JUST FORGET HER KIDS WAS ALMOST KILLED??? her character seems to always be worried about her kids but she didn’t seem that worried here… weird and going in s3 it just like doesn’t get brought up. too out of character for rita so i just think they should’ve never included the astor and cody kidnap thing.
anyways… season 2 is a really good season though i prefer season 1 & 4 it’s still good this is just my only problems i had with it. anyone else like it was just a rush to get rid of lila?
