A few thoughts of this new series thus far:
The season has def. started to make many of the connections which has been floating around the last 4 episodes. Considering there are 10 episodes, and we've concluded with the 5th, we're pretty much on track with how things are going. Judging from the previews for next week, Angela does confront Dexter about his "past", and isn't too torn up about it. My guess is Dexter probably said he wanted to run away from it, and start anew.
In any case, the season started off incredibly slow, and has now finally picked up. Curious to see how Dexter Handles his situation with Harrison, as well as any other cameo's we may see from characters from the OG run. Would love to see Matsuka and Hannah reappear in some capacity.
- I understand it's been some time since Dexter was routinely killing folks, but he seems to be VERY sloppy, even for his standards. Seems as if he's forgotten a few steps to "Harry's Code". Wonder if it has anything to do with Deb now being his Dark Passenger. When Harry was "around", he didn't really bring much doubt, more so reinforce his teachings. Deb seems to bring far more doubt, than assurances to Dexter.
- Podcast chick could EASILY blow up Dexter's spot. We already know she's very familiar with the Trinity Killer, thus it would be acceptable to assume she's familiar with Dexter as well. She should know what he looks like. If memory serves me right, didn't she show up to Dexter's property at one point in time? Or didn't she seem him in the police station?
- I don't see a connection with Sgt. Logan and Doakes at all. Logan seems to be more on the friendlier side, and hasn't had any suspicions of Dexter...yet.
- Kurt Caldwell (Matts Dad), is def. the main antagonist for this season. And he def. has an MO and "type" of victim. Not sure how Harrison plays into any of this, unless his last botched kill sort of gave him an opening for a "new" type of victim, and he doesn't prejudices' against gender anymore.
- Also, we still haven't been given a reason as to why Kurt lied about Matt calling him, and effectively cancelling the search party, unless he's looking for the killer himself.
- Speaking of which, why the sudden interest in Harrison? It seems as if he's luring Harrison the same way he's lured all his past victims. Only differences this time would be--Harrison is a male, Harrison would be missed, Harrison should be smart enough to catch on to what Kurt is trying to do. Unless Kurt is looking to "groom" Harrison someday.
- Also, we see Kurt "preserving" his victims bodies as some sort of "ceremonial trophy". How come the writers decided not to show us how he disposed of Green Haired Chick's body? He pretty much had a reaction towards everything Chloe did or didn't do. I think it would've been consistent to see how he reacted to unceremoniously killing Chloe.
