Speaker 2: I am the one two three tailored field.

this means nothing to the audio listeners. But anyways, ladies
and gentlemen, we're back for another week of Dexter Original Sin.
But before that, just a couple of plugs blee. I've

here we are tator Field. Through that rocky intro, we're back.
Dextra Original Sin. You know you were kind of taking
a hiatus last week. You're out of the country and venturing,
and so was Dexter because there was no episode released
last week. So here we are. Did you remember what
happened in episode six because it's been so long the year.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's it was not easy to forget.
It was a pretty big cliffhanger.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So were you surprised with, I mean spoiler free
of course, how they picked up from last week going
into this week? And did you enjoy this episode overall?
Speaker 3: I really enjoyed this episode, and I was not surprised
by how they picked up. I felt like, Okay, that's
exactly what I anticipated was going to happen. I mean, oh,
Dexter gets caught, they catching my kill jail episode?
Speaker 1: Yeah, big Harbor Butcher he's he's done.
Speaker 2: For That's right.
Speaker 3: So I think that all in all, ya, this episode
was expected but also unexpected because there are some stuff
in here.
Speaker 2: That completely blew my mind.
Speaker 3: I was not anticipating. So I really am. I'm all
aboard for this.
Speaker 1: Holy all aboard. Yeah. So this is episode seven of ten,
right I believe? Yeah? So yeah, I must say I
feel like this episode for me started off really like
I rolly, in the sense of like this is just
so corny that they even like try to build up
suspense for this cliffhanger, and then what followed that I
just couldn't believe what was happening. Of course, I'll detail
that in the spoiler section, but it just seems so
satirical and like goofy that it's just like, oh my god,
this is like a Scooby Doo cartoon. Now. It was
just like the lucky situations that are happening for our
boy Dexter here. But I think all of that was
really just contained in the beginning of the episode, like
literally the first five or ten minutes. I think beyond that,
I was engaged for the whole thing. I'm liking what's
going on with Dexter the serial killer, like behind the scenes,
but also the plot with the like the cops son
Nikki I believe this is his name, and that whole
like plot line, Like I was still engaged with that
throughout this whole episode. We have some deb stuff in here,
So I think this was a really good, just solid
episode throughout, especially when I compare it to like other
episodes that have come out this season. But my god, yeah,
the ending definitely had me gasped. I It's something I
never would have seen coming. I'm excited to talk about it.
I feel like it's so fresh. I don't even know
fully how I feel about it, And yeah, it makes
me like question a lot of things that I've already
seen this season. So I think with what was revealed
here at the end, it really has me interested on
like looking out for things if I were to rewatch
this season and to like try to to some things
and hopefully that's not too spoilery, but yeah, no, it's
pretty juicy and I like kind of what was revealed
going into episode eight nine ten. Now for the for
the final three, I'm just pretty intrigued what's going to
be shown here. But yeah, no, I thought it was
a really good episode, and honestly, I felt like it
flew by. Maybe it's just because we skipped last week.
I'm not really used to the run time. I don't
think it was a shorter episode overall compared to all
of them, but this one just like ended. I'm like,
oh my god, are you serious? That's it? So I
think they did their job well there, But anything else
you want to throw in or should we skip out
all over?
Speaker 3: There was a couple things which I'll bring up in
the spoilers because it's like it felt like, Okay, this
is ending on a little bit of a high note.
Speaker 2: Where I know, more like a cliffhanger.
Speaker 3: I guess we're going to be picking up our fault
touching base on this again in the future, but maybe not.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I feel like the main narrative that is just kind
of unraveled in this episode is going to kind of
take precedence, so it's going to be hard to kind
of detoy.
Speaker 2: We're off to other other.
Speaker 3: Narratives that exist in this this world so far, but
I'm beating around the bush and I can't.
Speaker 2: I don't want to.
Speaker 3: No, I'll just wait till spoilers to to mention it,
because it's we're almost there. The camera just paned to
something specific and Okay, that's very weird. I feel like
that's gonna be touched upon at a later date or
it's gonna have a callback, but we'll see.
Speaker 2: I digress.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we digress here on the Geek First podcast, And
as we digress, we're gonna throw to it to a
quick ad break, and then when we get back, we
are going to be unraveling everything that was done here
in this episode, Episode seven, Extra Original Sin. We'll be
right by all right, we are back. I kind of
want to start with just the juicy stuff at the end,
unless you want to build up to that just because
it's so exciting. So yes, final warning, big spoilers here.
We're gonna We're gonna spoil some stuff here. Taylor Field. So,
Mick Dreamy is a bit of a I don't know
if he's just a cartel psychopath or they have them
so much by the balls. I feel like we had
a certain smirk at the end of the episode that
made me think he's like pretty much enjoying the whole situation.
I never would have seen this coming by any regards,
whether it was the way the actor was portraying like
everything that was going on, like especially when he's so
scared for his son and all that. So that's what
I was kind of hinting at earlier in the spoiler
free section at the like I want to rewatch the
season now and like see if I notice certain things
from his behaviors that would be a tell, because they
revealed here that it's I would say ninety nine percent
chance that he is the one that chopped off his
own son's finger, And yeah, he was doing all these
crazy things. What do you think about it?
Speaker 3: Completely coping off guard? But it fits and I love
the story. I think it's great, and I love that
Dexter discovered it and just that whole scene that score
kicks in and it's just unraveling and he's like, oh
my god, he's figured it out. It's like, God damn,
this is great, and no one else is going to
know because he's going to get the killed. Is gonna
put the captain on his table and he's gonna nerve
him and the resked his history.
Speaker 1: But they still have to find the sun, right, Like
there's still that other aspect of that dynamic, Like Dexter
can't just cleanly kill this guy and just wipe his
hands clean, and this is like that's the end of
the problem, right.
Speaker 2: That's right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, But I think there's a way that if Dexter
puts this guy on his table and then he's gonna
wake up be like what the fuck dex and Dexters is.
Speaker 2: Like, where is your son?
Speaker 3: And then he'll be like, oh, he's here, just let
me go, and Dexters is gonna be like nope and.
Speaker 2: Just shives up.
Speaker 3: So I think that that's I feel pretty confident that's
what's gonna happen. I don't think the son's gonna die.
I think he's gonna be fine, but it's just weird
to think in retrospect that, Yeah, you have the captain
who he went into his ex wife's home and just
kicked the shit out of her, and he's probably just
like loving all of this.
Speaker 1: He's been waiting for this, this moment.
Speaker 3: Yeah, which is why I think this is this is
his own motives to put the cartel in hot water,
and he's just doing this and on his own volition.
Speaker 1: Right because like why would he have gone for the
judge's son beforehand, right like before his own It puts
the motivation there if he's kind of doing it on
his own, Like, I feel like there's got to be
many pieces to the puzzle.
Speaker 3: The judge was a part of the I can't even
remember the case, but the judge was more of like
a heavy hitter involved. And then you know, up the
ante he made his threats and then abducted his own
son to kind of carry on this.
Speaker 1: It's a fucking wild move, it is.
Speaker 3: I mean, technically he's not even a serial killer yet
because he hasn't killed this third person. He's only killed
the one person, right, Dexter that we know of Yeah,
Miami rules were third kills the serial killer?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, No, I'm very intrigued as to what's gonna
happen in this next episode. I don't I don't think
there's gonna be like a big showdown really in this episode.
I think maybe or sorry, in this next episode, I
think it's going to be. I don't like, does Dexter
go to his dad like with this information, like Harry,
or is he just gonna play it close to the chest,
because because they've already been kind of button heads, you know,
at various times in this.
Speaker 2: He's told every He told his dad all of his
victims so far, So that's right, and he would be interesting.
Speaker 1: He told him right away right about the like the
crime scene in Gator Town, like so he wasn't really
hiding it there. So yeah, I don't see why he
wouldn't keep it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but I mean I don't know if his dad, Like,
what's his dad going to say, like, oh, I just
kill him.
Speaker 2: I mean, this is one of his dad's friends, right, I.
Speaker 1: Think his dad's going to be like, I don't believe
you right, like like that like you're you're mistaken that
there's no way that is possible. But yeah, no, I
I was gonna say, I feel like next episode is
going to be dexter, like maybe trying to unravel more,
maybe like confront him, not necessarily strap strapped to the table,
but just maybe try to get information out of him
and like get him to slip up. But I don't
even know. I don't even know anymore because I definitely
was not expecting this twist at the end here. It
was definitely a holy shit moment, and then of course
that's when the episode ended, and then it's like, what, really,
that's it? Wait till next week. So at least the
season's ten episodes, not eight. That's you know, I'm happy
with the amount of time that we have left to
really handle this threat. Like I'm glad this wasn't just
revealed in episode nine going into episode ten, right, So yeah,
I'm hoping for some nice, juicy substance to come out
of this. I hope it's not just like a really quick,
cheesy like it.
Speaker 2: Was me the whole time.
Speaker 1: I'm just evil and wanted to shot my son's fingers off.
You know, I'm expecting a little bit more than that
for the reveal.
Speaker 2: I'm too and I love how low key it was.
Speaker 3: I mean, the Captain is in Dexter's office, he's in
the lab, he's going over the results because clearly he's
concerned that the whole detect his DNA. But well, he
wouldn't be worried about that, I guess anyways, because he's
just he's just looking to see what they what they
pull from it. But I loved how subtle it was
because I saw his sleeve and I thought, what is that?
And I thought of my head, Oh, that'd be kind
of weird if he was the killer, that would be
kind of like a wild But I thought nothing of
it because I thought it was just his sleeve because
he's wearing like a dress shirt. And then when Dexter
honed in on it and media is like, holy fuck.
Speaker 2: Okay, But I love those moments.
Speaker 3: It's just like when we're in the first episode and
Dexter catches on to the nurse being the one to
be like killing these people, and you get that wave
of realization and it's great. I love some One of
my favorite things about Dexter's just that that that hit
feeling because it's a it's not something you always get
in a lot of other shows, but Dexter does a
great job of delivering on it.
Speaker 1: It was literally the exact same scene from Spider Man
one at the Thanksgiving dinner table when he's like, oh
you that like messenger cop just bleed through his sleeve.
I really had no idea what it was, like, like
I said, like, it was the last thing I would
have expected. So he like is honing in on it,
and I'm like, is it like a burn or something? Like,
what the fuck is the significance here? Diving with the
gators such a such a weird thing to say in
that moment, but oh yeah, complete. And he's like fucking
just buying these like meals that like that's like the
number one sus thing. He's like buying it on his
own credit card. It's just like, okay, this is kind
of I feel like, I feel like he's not that
smart for just some of those actions. But they really
had to just make it clear that's like, no, this
is the guy. He's buying the meals. Look at him,
he's getting the lunchibles.
Speaker 2: That's right.
Speaker 3: I Mean, I didn't need that scene, but it definitely
cemented and like he's a sadistic.
Speaker 1: Fuck that's where he showed the smile, right, like he's
like smirking on them. Oh yeahs, like the New York Assassin,
right smiling on the CCTV. That. Yeah. Okay, Well, I
sorry to just start at the end, but I was
just really excited to talk about that. But beyond that,
we can go to the beginning now and talk about
a really really quick, cheesy reveal. I mean, this is
pretty much exactly what we expected it to be, right.
I think you actually called that he would just flash
his badge and it's like, I'm here, first guy on
the scene, just so like lucky and like so random
that like La Guerto is already there, and like fucking
his whole team is there, as if he would have
been called Yeah, like as if you would have been
called there already and you just showed up like the
exact same time. It's like, oh my god, this is
so cheesy and corny. But there was a little bit
of tension, I guess, just knowing that there was a
body in the back of his vehicle. They didn't really
do too much with that, though I was maybe expecting
a little bit more. I just the one that really
killed me was when he just the fucking alligator comes in,
Killer Croc comes in, just eats all the evidence. I
was like, are you fucking kidding me right now? Like
this is so cheesy and lazy. I hated that so much.
I like why, I don't know why even like bring
it in. Angel mentions that he like recognized it, but
Dexter really subcily like just deflex the whole thing, like
why are you focusing on this? Go go focus on
the missing kid, like just ignore all this. He's like, thanks, Dexter,
thanks for telling me not to investigate this. Like all
of that was so just stupid to me. And that's
where I was just like rubbing my eyes, like, man,
I can't believe this is actually happening.
Speaker 3: But that's a common thing, though, I feel with Batista
and Dexter, because even in the actual show, I feel
like there's many scenes where Dexter just like Batista's like headstrong,
like he's figuring it out, and Dexter's like, oh, hey,
who's that over there?
Speaker 2: And Batista's like, oh, thanks for talking me out of it, dex.
Speaker 1: And shiny yeah. I made so Hopefully in the new show,
when we have old Batista, he'll get his his redemption
and Dexter is gonna play I finally got you, Dexter.
Speaker 2: I know you did it all along.
Speaker 1: He's like, Oh, what why are you folks do on me?
Focused on this guy's like, oh, thanks.
Speaker 2: Thanks for telling me on the ledge, Oh fuck.
Speaker 1: If that happens. Angels By far like one of the
dumbest characters this show. But so yeah, that that really
bothered me. I mean it didn't last that long, like
I said, Like, it's pretty much just the beginning of
the episode where it really bothered me. But like, why
even have that threat? I well, I guess it's to
reinforce that he has to find like a new kill spot,
So I guess that's the reason.
Speaker 3: But I think they're really emphasizing to his lack thereof
skill and perfection at this right, I mean, for crying
out loud broad daylight, he drags the body out of
this fucking truck that throws in the dumpster. I don't
I don't think I've ever I've never seen that. That's
the thumbnail picture of him in the fucking dumpster. Like,
I don't think Dexter from the original show has ever
done that. But maybe Travis, you can pull the truth
on that. I don't know if there's a scene.
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's like, no, he he didn't do it
for the first time until season two. That's what he's
gonna say.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Travis got his DNA all over that fucking corpse though,
like it fell onto him.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, and then it was like all over.
Speaker 1: He's wearing his corpse clothes, like talking about like drinking
some juice in the house amateur.
Speaker 3: But that scene, this is what I was alluding to
in the non spoilers, when he sits in his truck
and he's waiting for the garbage truck or the dump
truck to come and take it away. That bin specifically,
the camera pans off after Dexter drives away to a
banana peel on the ground, and I thought.
Speaker 2: That's kind of weird.
Speaker 1: I didn't notice that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was very quick, and I thought that's kind
of weird. And that's what's making me think, well, are
they going to call back to this. There's no way
that they'd be able to properly trace where that body
was dumped into the dump truck from which bin, Well
maybe they could, maybe they know, Okay, this truck is
going to hit these ten spots before it goes to
the dump and then they're like, oh, we found a
banana peel here, let's do a test and see. But again,
that's me painting a picture that's non existent because Dexter
doesn't get caught at this time.
Speaker 1: You know what's gonna happen. Batista is going to find
that banana peel. Like, guys, this is very suspect. There's
a lot of human DNA on this and it really
makes me think about these other murders we investigating dextion
and be like, hey, buddy, you know, let's.
Speaker 2: Talk about that legend.
Speaker 1: Why are you focusing on the potassium of the pinetappeal? Like,
let's let's go over here. Thanks for talking about that.
Speaker 2: I love it. I hope they wise him up in
the next Goddamn.
Speaker 1: He's been like a pretty minor character throughout this whole show.
I feel that's been kind of surprising to me in hindsight,
not so much like we have a lot of Batista
and like the other characters in the original show, but
I don't know, he just seems a lot more of
a side character than I would have expected, at least
at like this point of the show now that we're
in like the back third.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, where do I going next?
Speaker 1: Where are you going next? Poor Deborah, she's just basically
saying fuck it to school. She suspend it from school.
Last her soon to be scholarship off the off the team,
lost her best friend, a lot of stuff going on
with her. She didn't really seem to really give a
shit because she's just gonna go hang out with her
her boy toy. I can't remember his name now, but yeah, no,
she's kind of just throwing it all out the window there.
And do you think it's justified?
Speaker 3: No, I don't think it's justified. It's an unfortunate mistake.
But I applaud her her stance because them the girl
like shoved her and she put her right foot back
and went in like a like a fucking Mma stance.
Speaker 1: She's a green belt at least.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and just.
Speaker 3: That punch, Oh my god, I felt that when I
was sitting in my broke nose.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Jesus, And like what a fucking bitch move
by her friend, Like what the hell? Like she just
rated on her. And then that's what causes whole debacle
because she was defending her brother, like completely in the wrong.
I yeah, I felt bad for dev shouldn't even be
in that situation. I think she could have handled a
little bit better. You know, violence is never the answer
is wise, people say, But solid punch, you know, it
was like a Hermione Granger in the Azkaband movie like that,
that was a that was a solid punch. Yeah. But
uh yeah, Like I don't remember from the original show,
does she actually get that scholarship or she This is
just no question.
Speaker 2: That's a question. I don't think so, because she ends
up becoming uh yeah, she comes.
Speaker 1: Like bottom barrel.
Speaker 2: Yeah right, So I don't think she goes and pursues
that scholarship.
Speaker 1: Not educated.
Speaker 3: No, So it is unfortunate what her friend did. That
definitely does suck a lot because I mean, Dexter, the
friend can't see this, and the friend is definitely on
many different wavelengths.
Speaker 2: But of course they're in high school.
Speaker 3: But when the friend like smack, not smashes, but drops
her vehicle right behind Dexter, bursting in the driveway and
jumps in the vehicle, it's like.
Speaker 2: Why the fuck haven't you been talking to me?
Speaker 3: Yeah, YadA, yeada, And then he's like ilmost call you
by a alligator.
Speaker 2: She's like, oh my poor baby, I'm so sorry. Like
this does not seem healthy relationship.
Speaker 1: Yeah, no, it's a it's definitely not a healthy relationship.
I I laughed so hard. When there's just like the
condom rapper in the truck, I'm like, Okay, how are
they going to explain this? And like it's just implied
that he actually just stepped on a condom wrapper because
like from what his crime scene that he was at
in the Gator Country, because like in his inner voice,
I swear that's what he said. He's like, oh, he's like, yeah,
that's kind of lucky that the way that that happened.
I'm like, are you kidding me? That's how that relationship ended.
Like I I just couldn't believe it. It seems so simple,
like control a delete, like let's just get out of
this whole relationship. To have this random condom rapper. It
wasn't even like it was revealed that it was debs
or something like like nothing, it was just no, I
stepped on it and it was just randomly in my shoe.
I could believe that.
Speaker 2: But uh, well, I thought they shared the truck.
Speaker 3: I didn't like at this point when they're like, oh
it was in Dexter Struck, it was like, oh, I
didn't know it was Dexter's truck because I thought.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Harrison or sorry, Harry used it to they all
use it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it's probably Harry's condom.
Speaker 2: That's right, that's right.
Speaker 1: But yeah, a lot of that was just really too convenient,
how like those situations were playing out and very just
jumped to conclusions I think with like her friend's side
and Deb and just all that stuff. So unfortunate for Deb.
I mean, we know her fate, but yeah, I just
didn't think it was the cleanest execution of that sequence
of events there.
Speaker 2: No, And I thought they were going to turn it
around when Deb approached her and was like, oh, you know,
dex is an idiot. Get Yeah.
Speaker 1: I thought she was gonna like actually come around and
be like, well maybe it was my condom, you know,
like you never know that. It's like, oh, you're right, no,
I'm but right away it's like taking your brother's side
over me, like fuck you, you're dead to me, and then
just rats out on all of her past crimes like yeah, ridiculous, Okay,
let's go to another at break and then we'll continue
on Taylor Fields. Yeah, you just talked about deb We
talked about I guess we didn't talk about Harry's past.
You know, the seventies badass Miami Vice. Look that they
have this guy rocking. I guess this is in the
debs in the world. Now he's kind of pushing away
from Laura, getting back to his his wife, you know,
not being so unfaithful to her anymore. But we're just
getting closer and closer to the crisis event for poor
Laura here she actually met mister Estrada in the flashback.
They have this lady doing a lot of nude shots
throughout the show, which is interesting, but I don't think
it's always necessary. But hey, I hope she's getting paid
for it at least. And yeah, what did you think
about these these flashback sequences?
Speaker 3: The Estrata stuff always makes me auntsy because I'm thinking, Okay,
is this this is where we're going down?
Speaker 2: Is it happening? But nope, not yet.
Speaker 3: So it seems like she's expanding our territory a little
bit and probably going to crack down, And this is
probably where it's she's gonna get caught because she's she's.
Speaker 2: Really in hot water now with Harry.
Speaker 3: It was interesting because yeah, he has a very sincere
moment with his wife, apologizes, and then him and Laura.
Laura's just like I've done this for over a year,
like when's it gonna end? And He's just like this
is a little longer, a little longer.
Speaker 2: Like he's just.
Speaker 3: I can't imagine that. It's just a shitty situation. But
that's where they ended. Right At first, I thought they
were talking about him being with his wife and not
moving in with Laura or whatever. But I realized, okay,
it's about the case and Estrata. I laughed, and I
know this is gonna piss Travis off. He's probably fuming
right now because when Laura's like goodbye and Dexter runs in,
it's like daddy and she's like that's not your daddy,
and then like picks him up and walks away, and
so Harry's like, okay, I just got to go. But
then you get like this ominous dark theme and it
just you look down the hall and there's Brian, Dexter's brother,
like half creeping out the doorway, just staring. I know,
Travis is just fucking fuming, like what it was going
on here?
Speaker 2: But I liked it.
Speaker 3: I thought it was it was it was a good
foreshadow and you only know that if you've watched the
show up until this point. But people that don't know,
I mean, they're gonna just like, what the fuck's wrong
with this kid? And has that mystery behind it?
Speaker 1: So yeah, Travis, are you fucking kidding me?
Speaker 2: That's been him for the whole show.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, one hundred percent. I feel bad for Emily
just having to be around that as he's watching this show. Yeah,
I feel like I enjoyed the more Laura side of
these flashbacks, mostly just because anytime that she's like going
to her house or something and just these cartel people
come and pick her up, and it's just like, man,
you have no idea if this is gonna be the
last time that you ever like see your own house, right, Like,
just I think they do a good job at building
upon that at tension, because it's happened many times now
where she thinks like this is the end. I think
it's the end, right, Like I've been talking about that
for weeks. Every time we see these scenes, whether she's
at the shipping yard or not. I'm just like, oh
my god, oh my god, it's common. Oh my god,
it's the it's the hot time machine thing right with
the guy the the missing arm. I'm just waiting for
it to happen. So I think this one was good,
just actually having a face to face. I think I
think because she is so close to the end, she's
starting to maybe counting her chickens before they hatch sort
of speak like I feel like she's she's not as
like clean with her with her act. I guess I'm
trying to say, like, like, I think there are certain.
Speaker 2: Moments where in here are you going to be there?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, exactly, And I feel like that's something where
Astrata like maybe is like, oh, that's a little suspect,
like just just not the most natural way to come
to those those certain things. I mean, he told his
boy to keep keep an eye on her at the
end there, So I think it's I mean, fuck, I
know it's common, but it's just interesting to watch the
play out. So I am enjoying just the build up
of attension of those episodes. And yeah, it's gonna be
always am brutal when it happens it's gonna be very brutal.
Speaker 3: I always felt a little off on the fact that
Harry is there all the time, his partner's there all
the time, Like they just show up at Laura's house.
Speaker 2: It's like, well, how do you know that it's not
being surveyed or what.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's probably what's gonna happen now, right, because he
just said like keep an eye on her, and then
they're going to be hanging out like all the time.
Like yeah, it's super super bad.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, I had a point and I can't recollect it.
Speaker 1: How unfortunate. Sorry about that. That's okay, it happens, It
does happen. Where to go. Oh. Something I thought was
pretty interesting here was we get Dexter's first blood slide. Yeah,
and I think that's actually going to be like a
cool moment if this is his first blood slide, especially
if like he well, I don't think he would keep
that specific blood slide if this is the first time
that he's keeping them, just because he probably can't take
that out of evidence. Maybe he'll just draw it for
the first time. But it was cool to see.
Speaker 2: It there the victim, right, was it from the victim?
Speaker 1: I thought that was the sample for our for like
the box, that was the box.
Speaker 3: For him, because you're saying, how will he get his
his blood like trophy, his first.
Speaker 1: Blood trophy, because I assume that's what that was going
to be, right, especially if the McDreamy guy for his
name in the show, the Captain, but especially if he
actually is the killer and then Dexter gets him straight
out to the table and stabs him, you know, as
like that victim. Maybe it's not maybe I'm just reading
into that, but when I saw the blood slide, I
got excited. I'm like, oh, this is gonna be cool
if he's actually starting this type of because you know,
that's his original trophies from the original show. So I
just thought it was a cool moment. Maybe I'm reading
into it too much, I thought it was. I thought
it was pretty cool.
Speaker 2: Mm hmm, I agree, it was.
Speaker 3: It's good one of those little easter egg kind of
foreshadow things that we've seen before where he's talking about
how he needs a boat and how he's you know,
he's not drugging the victim so he can knock them
unconscious and do what he does. It's him just finding
his steps and finding out things that he likes, So
I think I think that's it's got merit to it.
Speaker 1: Absolutely. We have LaGuerta and Harry kind of working together
a little bit investigating what's the potential serial killer situation. Yeah,
just a little bit of them working together, not not
much more than that. I feel like that side plot, well,
I'm not too too gripped on so far, at least
what was shown yet. But I don't know. I think
they have decent chemistry, the two of them there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I mean with all this talk Travis has
of Harry just sleeping around with everyone thinking like, man,
is he gonna sleep with LaGuerta because it's it's like.
Speaker 1: Oh, so that condom came from.
Speaker 2: That's where condic came from.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like four hour drive, like, oh, we'll go
in Manyana.
Speaker 2: They're they're getting there. Who knows, though, I'm cure.
Speaker 3: I used to see where it's gonna go with that
serial killer who's just trying to kind of like learn
his path. I feel like we've got a lot of
killers kind of on the go here and we don't
even know what's going on with deb and her boyfriend.
Speaker 2: I feel like something's going on there, So yeah, I
don't know.
Speaker 1: I guess that could be what ties it together, right
like the serial killer case with LaGuerta and then maybe
dev make maybe that character is kind of tied to
that situation a little bit more. I feel like that
could be a clean way to tie those two things together, because,
as you mentioned, there is a lot already going on,
and if those aren't connected, I just feel like it's
a lot to kind of handle right now, because I
honestly kind of forgot about that, uh, that scene where
Dexter was recreating like the choking at the beach and
all that stuff, because I don't know, it's been a
couple of weeks now and wasn't a highlight of this
episode per se. But yeah, I don't know, see what happens.
Speaker 3: I like too that Logorida was just basically rehashing exactly
what Dexter told her in her meeting with the captain
and with just pitching that and I think, Okay, this,
this here is where she's gonna obviously get a foot
up because Dexter's right and it's going to prove to her.
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm definitely relying on him. He's definitely got.
Speaker 3: Some honed in senses, which we see she goes to
bat for him and defend him in every situation in
the Dexter original show until she finds out that he
is the Bay Harbor butcher, when after Doakes dies and whatnot.
But it's just cool to see how how she's building
that relationship with him.
Speaker 1: M HM. Absolutely got a lot of respect for Nicky
in this episode. He was like making a prison shift,
getting ready to attack his attacker. He's changed the ground
so he can't really go far, but fuck he was.
He was swinging for his life there.
Speaker 3: I figured that he would probably if he got that
that ship into the guy, then he would probably find
keys on the guy's body if he took him out,
and then he could undo his anklet and get out
of there.
Speaker 2: But yeah, fortunately not.
Speaker 1: No, he took the number on him though, you know,
just like that's the bike messenger clipped him.
Speaker 2: How did you say it happened?
Speaker 1: We had a sequence of Dexter going through again like
he's trying to find his uh well, actually that's the
tell of the episode the Big Bad Body Problem, where
he's trying to find a spot to drop dead bodies.
He talks to a couple famous serial killers in the past.
We have ed Geen John Wayne Gacy. Uh. It was
kind of strange to me, just just like him like, hey, pal,
how's it going, Like, I don't know, it was just
it was just bizarre, but something I wasn't expecting. But yeah,
it was something that happened here. Like I did like
the scene that happened in the kind of staff room
when they're all just kind of like talking to him.
It's like, Wow, where would you hide a dead body?
I feel like that could be seen really cheesy, and
maybe it is some people, but for me, I kind
of thought it was funny. And then of course Harry
comes in, He's like, maybe we shouldn't be talking about this.
It was just the look he gave Dexter I thought
was kind of funny.
Speaker 3: I liked when I liked when Dexter brought that up
and Harry was.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like what her looks at him like exactly right,
It's like, what are you guys talking about?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Cool? I think I don't really have much else. I'm
looking through my quick little notes here. No, not not really.
I think we kind of I mean we started with
the heavy stuff right at the gate because I was
just excited to get in there. But is there anything
else that you remember? What you want to know?
Speaker 2: I didn't remember. I think I think that's it. Cool.
Speaker 1: Well I'm okay with that. Yeah, we'll be here next week.
I'm here rumors that a third may be joining us.
We'll see what happens. I'm sure they got a lot
of pent up aggression to release their thoughts, but we'll
see if they actually make it out. But we'll be
here nonetheless, Episode eight next week. Thanks for being here
with me, Taylor. There's lots of fun and until next time,
ladies and gentlemen, We'll we'll be here, Bye bye,
