I'm always impressed when she uses them in combinations I haven't heard before.😆

Idk I attribute that to Dexter just getting sloppier not the writers I feel like they’ve been showing us him getting more and more messy as the seasons go on. This is my first watch of Dexter so that’s just how I’m interpreting it.

That’s about the only thing I dislike about season 7. There are way more unrealistic scenarios, Season 5 & 6 did this as well. Dexter is a very intelligent guy, but he’s not a superhero, and some of his mistakes in these later seasons would likely get noticed.

What I love about Isaak is that there seems to be a... mutual respect? Respect is a strong word, but a mutual understanding between Dexter and Isaak that goes just beyond "serial killer bad". It's a much more interesting dynamic than most seasons because, as a viewer, you also respect Isaak more than most of the other antagonists of the show. He's more refined, in a way, more like an actual character instead of just an antagonist. And Hannah... I love the way they set her up. She starts as Wayne's unnamed girlfriend, a side character on his story. Then we actually see her and she starts getting some screen-time, and we wonder why. Like Trin said, everything points to her being a one-episode character. And then, in this episode, we finally understand there's something more to her character. Brilliant writing, super subtle way to build someone up.

Didn't like that Dexter went to see Isaak at the jail. Visitor logs would clearly show that and people would wonder why he did it. The writers begin to get sloppier this season.

I love Deb the way she talks is so funny to me, the amount of ways she uses the word fuck in under a minute is amazing.

I can only imagine them filming Deb's freakout in the elevator...the director must've said, "We're firing you from the show, and....action!"

This reasoning kills me every time I watch this. Dexter publicly used a bloodslide at the site of the first bathtub murder in season 4. NOT just the Bay Harbor Butcher, argh.
