This episode was good in the fact that some things were finally brought into light. Throughout the whole series there has always been that taboo relationship/sexual tension with Dex and Debra that was never really brought up, except maybe by Masuka. The sexual tension could have been natural chemistry between the two actors considering they were married off screen, and I find it ironic that after their divorce that Debra finally admits she "LOVES" Dexter. As a viewer, when watching a show thats run as long as Dexter, You know the writers and producers are going to throw this giant ball from left field that we all knew was inevitable in the first place.
The other big inevitability was Dexter killing Travis in front of Debra. After Debra tells Dex to do a final sweep of the old church, Dexter gets the wonderful idea of using it as his killing floor, never thinking for one second that Deb would come to check on him. Low and behold, as soon as Dexter plunges the knife into Travis, Debra stumbles upon the happening, both characters with shocked expressions as the scene ends. Im glad that the writers FINALLY allowed Debra to see Dexters BIG secret, which we all knew was going to happen one day as well as Debras secret love for her brother, I was just surprised that they pulled a double whammy in this single episode, either way, Dex has some explaining to do. Good job Producers, Cant wait till next season.
