Overall that was a fun season, but I think the ending was a little weak. I do however think the whole season was worth the watch and I still had fun.
For instance Dexter getting Harrison to open the door. It has to be a code, Dexter gives the code as the battery is dying, but then retracts it and gives a different code. Dexter isn't sure if Harrison got the code, but the door opens.
That's a tense moment, but the failure is technology. That should have been a moment to highlight Harrison. Harrison should have found a way to communicate by knocking on the door, or somehow Dexter had files that Harrison had previously studied or hell even Harrison getting the whole code except the last number and just guessing correctly, showing how lucky he is.
Dexter was putting his life in Harrison"s hands and he should have showed, in the same way that he infiltrated the party, how useful he is.
The New York Ripper was just some dude, which was weird. Hopefully that gets picked up next season and we see more with the NYC Detectives. Maybe Dexter helps from the outside.
But also...next season is clearly (at least in part) Dexter: Wisconsin as he goes after Eric Stonestreet who is going to be on alert after Prater dies and is outed.
Charley being angry at Prater for having a file on her was weird. First of all he has a file on everyone else, why not her? Also if he has a file on her, who put it together? It seemed like Charley was his only investigator.
In many ways this all felt like a series finale and I'm curious what they're going to do next.
