It’s official!
The Big Bad for Season 8 is Quinn’s dick. Little Joey has gotten Big Quinn into so much trouble over the past 4 seasons that it’s a given they’re on the lookout for their next
tragic conquest. If getting screwed over by a stripper looking to fix her car didn’t teach them, the googly eyes Jamie Bautista makes at ol’ Detective Bedhead spells nothing
but trouble in the future. Thanks for playing Quinn! See you and little Joey in Season 8!
Ok, what I just described is a very minor bit that happens at Bautista’s New Years Eve/Retirement party, and it’s the ONLY SPOILER you’ll get out of me this week. As I’ve
mentioned this same time last year...
This is more of a SPOILER-FREE review/impressions of the episode. I won’t be doing the usual questions/answers this week. If there’s one episode that we should all go
in fresh and keep the lid on, it’s the big season ender. PLEASE no PM requests, and please don’t ask “does Hanna die/is Dexter arrested/did Deb poison herself”. We’re so
close to the end, so why spoil the fun for yourself and everyone else. Speaking of...
Espguitars16 – Not even close!
Season 7 is officially in the books. Did it go out with a Jordan Chase whimper or a Trinity Killer bang? If you consider yourself heavily invested in the personal trials and
tribulations of the Dexter/Deb/Hanna dynamic, and froth at the mouth as Laguerta inches closer to the truth...
Episode 12 just might be the BEST episode of the season!
I’m sure the logic police and nit pickers will continue to pick nit, and to be fair, when you’re dealing with a storyline that is purely based in character and murky personal
motives and ethics, everyone has an opinion on how things should play out and why. This isn’t a race against time to stop Travis Marshall from sacrificing Harrison as a
solar eclipse appears. This is far more personal, emotional, and satisfying.
Episode 12 starts out with a bang. It might be a MINOR SPOILER to say that the first scene involves Dexter visiting Hanna in prison. I dare not spoil the details of the
conversation, but the point is that the writers aren’t wasting time getting to the juicy stuff. Some nice performances here.
Just as the first scene is sinking in, a fairly innocent moment is interrupted with another narrative bombshell. The writers are seriously not screwing around here and giving
the fans top-shelf material. The ensuing moments are edge-of-your-seat, pin-drop goodness. But it doesn’t stop there...
The beauty of Episode 12 is all in the storytelling. Even though you might expect certain things to occur, they’re revealed in such a manner that takes you by surprise. Just as
you’re soaking up the awesomeness of a previous scene, another unexpected bit of brilliance hits you in the face. Given the high stakes at hand, the episode does a
wonderful job of keeping the viewer in suspense. Someone who might have an upper hand one minute, is suddenly on the verge of tragic personal and professional
consequences the next. With the exception of a few small doses of humor, the episode is played dead serious.
The performances are rock solid across the board. Michael C Hall and Jennifer Carpenter kick ass as always, but for me, their confessionals in Episodes 1 and 2 (as well
as Deb’s confession of love) remain the acting highlights of the season (that doesn’t involve the awesome Ray Stevenson). Yvonne Strahovski does some great work,
showing off different shades of Hanna that we haven’t seen before, and a mental/verbal duel between Hanna and Deb is definitely a highlight for the character. But a rare
special mention must be given to Lauren Velez. Love or hate Laguerta, Velez gives a fired-up performance that’s easily her meatiest material this season. Oh, and a certain
bald-headed friend from the past? You have been missed, sir!
But this all sounds like fanboy gushing, right? There HAS to be some criticisms, yeah? Well...
As I hinted at above, to say that Quinn’s storyline is forgotten about is an understatement (who were the Koshka’s again?). Planting evidence is always a narrative-logic
slippery slope, but not a deal breaker here. As always, viewers may question certain details, but there’s nothing of the “surprise pen-knife in the sock” easy-out that plagued
the last few seasons. Given how much turmoil Dexter has endured over 7 seasons, a certain suspension of disbelief must be understood.
But the goodness FAR outweighs any problems you might have.
The end of the episode is really what Season 7 comes down to. I like how it concluded, but I’m sure others might think differently. Instead of a “can’t wait to see what
happens in the next 10 seconds” ending, it’s more of a “can’t wait to see what happens now” conclusion.
As the end credits roll, it’s obvious that the creators of Season 7 have done us fans a kindness. While it might not hit the brutal freshness of Seasons 1 and 2, or the dizzying
suspense and heartbreaking emotion of Season 4, Season 7 is a rarity. It’s probably the only season that will probably get better on another viewing once the bigger picture
is revealed and the character arcs have been established.
The seeds have been planted for Season 8, and as Dexter himself says...
“Is this the beginning of the end?”
Probably. But for who?
Enjoy the episode Dexheads!
