Agent Batista (smirking as he cuffs Dexter):
"Guess you finally ran outta plastic wrap, huh, Dexter? Should’ve stuck to slicing ham at the precinct potlucks instead of people."

(pauses, then leans in)
"Bay Harbor Butcher... more like Bay Harbor Busted.,,,BITCH!

If Dexter HAD to kill Masuka for no reason other than to save his own ass or Harrisons , how would you feel?

>>212927326
sad but if dexter is on a full manhunt then i'd understand it
if he does it to save harrison it'd be horrible

>>212927510
>sad but if dexter is on a full manhunt then i'd understand it
>if he does it to save harrison it'd be horrible
now that i think about it, i think Masuka would actually help him! You know the guy has a boring life dunno if he got married and once he heard Dexter code an that he was taking out dangerous repeat offenders i could see Masuka being Dexters Batwoman,oracle

BASTISSSTTTTAAAAAA NOOOO DONT INTRUDE ON THE SERIAL KILLER MEETUP AFTER RETIRING AND SAYING GOODBYE TO YOUR FRIENDS BATISSSTTTTAAAAAAAAA

>>212927326
I wonder if this character will appear in OS season 2

>>212928209
if they're smart they're going to completely ignore anything after season 5

>>212928070
WTF is this real?

>>212927277 (OP)
Damn, Dex. Easy on the Cubanos..

>>212927277 (OP)
>>212928070
is this from that british tv show?

>>212928187
>BASTISSSTTTTAAAAAA NOOOO DONT INTRUDE ON THE SERIAL KILLER MEETUP AFTER RETIRING AND SAYING GOODBYE TO YOUR FRIENDS BATISSSTTTTAAAAAAAAA
kek and if Batista does get caught in the super hero serial killer super friends club web, im sure his 'la'passion'ah wins them over and reasons with them and they come to a gentlemen's agreement..no . more . killing. "Amigos im a people person i run bars and Restaurants i got along with everybody, i got this bros"

>>212928209
>I wonder if this character will appear in OS season 2
>>212928251
dont remember how old dex was when seeing fogel? But im pretty sure shes been retconned from dexter os and the current run, my guess she is no longer canon. I want a season 2 Dexter in jail(Not prison) Imagine the stealh and how tense it would be for dexter to put in work having to dismember and dispose of a body in jail? Would be kino! )Yea yea i know would be impossible they would never let dex leave his cell)

>>212929023
Dexter in jail would be way way too ridiculous, even more ridiculous than them reviving him for this season

>>212928850
>is this from that british tv show?
>>212928260
>WTF is this real?
i hope not :(

>>212929126
>Dexter in jail would be way way too ridiculous, even more ridiculous than them reviving him for this season
i know, but if he had cops on the inside helping him (killing pedos, murders etc) esp other prisoners he could get some kills in (dunno about chopping up body) and by the end of the season he could easily escape some how.Hell like 20 atlanta 80 iq inamates all escaped at once by just un screwing a sink a couple months ago lmao but its dexter so i think it would be kino

Masuka being ignored by everyone was the saddest arc in all of Dexter

Why can’t they stick to the original music instead of throwing in a fucking edgy song every other scene.
NOT EVERYTHING NEEDS A FUCKING SONG

https://youtu.be/cOf4Gso4Vx4?si=7lrJrVIFzLxxIvXP&t=575
there is no way masuka kept his job being like this

>>212927326
I like Dexter best when he's not pretending to be anything but a crazy serial killer.

A somewhat glaring issue I haven't seen discussed: when Harrison starts beating up pic related and inflicting that damage, punching him in the face over and over, that would leave severe bruises on his hand.
When the detectives interview Harrison within just a couple days later, his hand would still be bruised up.
So either he has Wolverine-like healing powers, or the detectives never looked at or noticed the condition of his hands despite the forensic evidence of the altercation, which would be retarded

>>212929632
>Masuka being ignored by everyone was the saddest arc in all of Dexter
Amen, and i find him more complex than dexter

>>212930227
>I like Dexter best when he's not pretending to be anything but a crazy serial killer.
no doubt but to know knowledge the only person killed in cold blood that was innocent was the black cop form iron lake? He rationalized that by rule number one of the code NEVER GET CAUGHT well he was caught and needed to reach Harrison so i don't even think it was possible for Dexter to NOT do what he did.Fight or flight, getting exposed, mr crabs about to kill his son, even a speeding ticket church going caring father who was innocent would do the same as dexter in that situation.But if he does kill Masuka(dont see it) hes gone full Dark Dexter at that point

>>212930425
I'm more surprised he even died from 4 punches and a toilet lid

>>212931055
The toilet lid is believable enough to me. If it was heavy duty and thick enough to not break on the first swing/impact, then yeah it could easily kill someone that way

Ghost deb is so fucking weird in new blood

>>212932485
yeah I didn't like it at all desu

>>212932485
on top of it having debs personality it also has dexters resentment to himself for killing her, i really liked her though

>>212932612
Just kind of a weird direction. I like the character but seeing her appear as her old self doesn't feel like it fits the show and then they make her do a bunch of weird spooky things. I don't think they mesh well, either have her be herself and judgmental or have her be a simple reminder that haunts him every day.

>>212932485
She makes enough sense to me, being a bit less like the real Deb and more like a manifestation of everything that Dex regrets and blames himself for and ran away from.
The ghosts of Trinity and Miguel and Doakes are pretty detached from the real people too, in different ways

jesus I don't remember this

>>212927326
"lmao you do you bro!"

Did I download the wrong Dexter reboot

>>212929023
>>212928209
Here's Clyde's explanation for no Vogel in OS:

“It actually never came up. When we sit in the writing room, particularly when you’re doing a thriller, you need to know what the ending is. You put that on the wall and put your nose against it and you walk backward. Let’s say you’re in a hotel hallway and you walk backward and each room you’re passing is an episode until you get over here. Then we also have something which we call NPO, no particular order, scenes we want to see. We write them up on a board and about 35 or 40 percent of them get in like that ice truck going by, but we don’t know what episode it’s going in. We work in the ones that fit into the story, but story is king and character is king. So, Dr. Vogel isn’t even in my consciousness, honestly.”

It's kind of like how they casually erased Hannah in New Blood and barely mentioned her.
If a character was introduced in the later seasons when Clyde wasn't involved with the show, then he feels no obligation to make use of them, even if it creates continuity issues

>>212933264

I wonder if that's standard for tv shows, I like that approach.

kino or corny?

>>212933451
Corny. Harry should have tried and failed to forcibly apprehend and cuff Brian, instead of briefly considering shooting him in the head. The outcome of the scene would be the same that way.
Maybe set it up with another earlier scene where Brian almost gets arrested by some other cop, but he avoids getting cuffed and escapes, demonstrating that ability

>spic deb

>>212933795
yes that's the point, I liked that they didn't straight out say HEY DEXTER HAS THIS GIRL AS HIS GIRLFRIEND BECAUSE SHE LOOKS LIKE HIS DEAD SISTER

>>212927277 (OP)
>Sorry I can't help with your case, but (entirely unprompted) Did you ever hear the Tragedy of Debra Morgan the Vegetable?
>I thought not. It's not a story the police in rural upstate New York would know about.
>This random woman you've never heard of had a brother, and her brother had a son named Harrison, and it's somehow important that I recall and tell you Harrison's name in this moment.
>And she was a good friend.

it's over

>>212933795
>>212934280
Dexter should have taken her daughter as his second girlfriend and cucked harrison before killing him.

>>212935604
how close do you think batista is going to get to catching him? i hope he does't get himself killed

>>212937097
sorry anon..dexter is going to kill everyone in a way or another

>>212937097
He comes very close but a number of things stop him.
>Quinn and Harrison both trying to convince him that the BHB has saved a lot of lives and done more good than harm
>Dexter somehow saves Angel from being killed by cult members

Angel won't die in this season, that would be too creatively limiting for now when they still have a big multi-season plan for Resurrection, and it would go against the themes of the new show if yet another OG main character dies and it's Dex's fault. It's supposed to be about redemption and saving people now

Why would a trophy-collecting serial killer cybersecurity expert (that even a boomer like Dex can find with safari) have no cameras or security measures in his house other than a Temu keypad

>>212938105
because he's just an average autist? From where did you get that he's a cybersec expert really smart guy. Dude kills people for a stupid reason too

>>212938105
He had bounced between different tech jobs and moved a lot, which is also why his apartment is relatively plain and undecorated. Setting up better security was a hassle that he had stopped bothering with, if he ever did, since it had never caught anything before. He was on the somewhat dumb and overconfident side

>no teen Deb in tight volleyball shorts flashbacks

I mean why even watch the show

>>212927277 (OP)
How I wish dexter would murder Batista. Always hated that fucker. But they don't have the balls. They didn't let him kill Doakes. Didn't let him kill LaGuerta. He can only kill a random black guy, who was barely in the show, so the sensitive audience won't get upset.

>>212939049
If he killed on a whim just because it's convenient, and not because people fit the code and deserve it, then it wouldn't be Dexter anymore. It would be something like You and I wouldn't want to keep watching

>>212933264
Fine because I’d wager there isn’t a human alive that’s biting at the bits to see young Vogel show up in Original Sin. Her very existence is a dumb retcon that actively ruins Harry & Dexters relationship so just retconning her out of existence is not only perfectly acceptable it’s actually preferred.

>>212939049
>can only kill a random black guy
In the New Blood finale he was about to attack Angela with kitchen knives, and would have done so if she had tried to arrest him by herself, with no backup.
It's not a kill of course, but it's a potential good and non-black victim
