It's an old show now, so, spoilers, no, yes? So the Trinity killer (played by John Lithgow ....Trinity rock from the sun?) picks up his car from the detail shop in the afternoon, stops by Dexter's house and murders Rita. His car breaks down that night, and Dexter, having removed a part from the engine catches up with him. So when did Dexter have the time to do that, and if he was following all along, how come he didn't catch him before he went into the house to do Rita in? We don't see a stop at a service station or anything like that and the DVD contains no deleted scenes.

Have not seen the show. Have you check links to recaps, writers interviews. Often they will provide clues.

I've added it to the title just in case. I used to watch it but haven't seen the last season and hope to some day so spoilers could still be useful for some of us.

"That's either a saint or the most boring action figure I've ever seen."

"Harry doesn't need Saint Bridget, he has Father Morgan"...

this Is a cracker of a show - but I just can't hang around here Eb until I've seen it all.

I loved Dexter! I don't have an answer to the question, though. I'll ask the other Dexter fans in my house...see if they have any answers. :)
It is a rare sighting of the elusive Debbie bird :love::m_adore:

Sorry - just kidding - do1you9love? said something about bird watching in another thread and it's in my mind now :m_loveu:

(Oh wow - should have checked the date - this is from October 2016!) :facepalm:

Really miss you Debbie913 and I hope all is well
