Dug this episode. Loved that computer geek went out like a punk. I can't wait for Ray and Dexter to go head to head. Glad that Deb may be settling down on the babysitting.

Great episode last night. Did I miss the relationship between the dead guy and the PUnisher though? My first thought was he's gay, but is it his brother?
Also, Quinn is looking more and more skeleton like and it's creepy.

First, I loved all the stuff with Issak. I'm surprised it took so long for Dexter to get mixed up with mafai/cartel type stuff. It's probably far more common in Miami than serial killers (Miami seems to have an abnormal amount of them...). It was interesting to see Dexter react to being prey. I really dug how clever it was to drop Issac off in a rival gang's bar. A good idea.
That said...
I think Dexter's finally crossed over into the Hate-Watch category for me. Lookit: everyone knows that jail conversations are monitored. Dexter just admitted to a capital fucking crime, as did Mr. Russian Mob boss. Those conversations are monitored specifically for crap like that since it's admissible in court. It was a stupid, stupid mistake from a police procedural show. And it really irritated me.
Normally I'm cool when TV shows don't get all the legal details right. For instance, I have very serious doubts whether a judge would toss that one guy's confession due to a ambiguous Miranda violation. Especially in a Red State (and you don't need a verbal "yes" to demonstrate that the suspect understands the Miranda rights). But that's technical criminal procedure stuff, and it's arguable that it's possible.
But the jailhouse conversations? A stupid, low-rent mistake from a show that should know better.
Ugh.

The scene with Dexter and The Punisher at lunch was fantastic. Ray sold the shit outta it. Dexter needs to stop sticking his dick in crazy, and goddammit Deb....YOU WERE THE ONLY GOOD ONE.
