Got blood?
Like, 5 gallons of it?
Welcome to The Dexter Chainsaw Massacre.
And the crime scene of all crime scenes: a hotel room soaked and spattered in blood that psyches Dex out and ... well, makes him faint and go a little loopy.
“He’s been gone so long, he had to be planning a splashy return. But a crime scene just for me?
Who woulda thought the blood spatter expert would get spattered himself.
Got to hand it to the Icetruck Killer (read: Rudy). He knows how to get to Dex - a point of contention this week as he seemed more concerned about how Dex was dealing with his red nightmare vs. jumping Deb’s bones.
Can we talk?
Uh, no.
But bring over the beer and porterhouses anyway.
Poor Deb ... playing second fiddle again as she watches her brother chat up life (sorta) and throw back beers with
So do we notice that things are building to a serious crescendo?
Detective Batista is potentially onto Rudy’s trail given his impromptu meeting of a girl in a club with a prosthetic hand that matches the exact fingernail polish configuration of the first set of severed fingers found in the icetruck back at the beginning of the season. Hmmm, is it any surprise Batista is attacked at the end of the ep? Or that Rudy now has a fat lip?
Next week’s finale is lining up to have Rudy found out as the doer (thanks, CC), and wow, is Deb in for it. But having seen the finale, I’m not sure all our readers will be ready for the insane twist coming with Rudy’s identity.
What, you ask, is up with the kid sitting in the shipping container full of blood? We know it’s Dex. We know it’s his mom. We know something went really wrong. And yet we don’t quite know the whole picture.
Kinda like Rudy.
And as if Dex didn’t have enough on his mind this week dealing with his own bloody nightmare, he had to get rid of Paul.
Yeah!
Sorry, I digress.
Did that not almost seem like … I don’t know … therapeutic considering all Dex was having to deal with this week? I was just beyond irritated watching Paul press charges against Rita for assault when she was having to defend himself against his rage (okay, so Rita might’ve blurred the line a little when she invited Paul in last week, but still … he’s a deadbeat, she’s not. I love Rita. End of story. Go away, Paul).
The special two-hour season finale of Dexter will air at a special time next week – 9 p.m. (Yes, Dex is bumping Lil’ back to her ol’ time slot so that we can all hold our breath and see how this amazing first season ends - and you will not want to miss this!)

Rudy's connection to Dexter has been driving me crazy ever since we found out he is the ice-truck killer! I can't wait until Sunday! I absolutely loved the way Dex got rid of Paul. I thought he was going to kill him. This was so much better.
This was a great episode! I felt really bad for Deb the entire hour. She's always playing second fiddle to her brother. Of course, in this case, I'm thinking it might just be better to be second fiddle! ;-)
I loved how Dexter got rid of Paul. It showed how devoted he is to his dad's code, and it was another display of his human-ness. He claims to be empty inside, but he spared a man's life (I strongly feel that this was for the kids' sake) and managed to solve Rita's problem. LOVED it!
Bring on the finale!!
