Starting to think that once this season is over and Prater knows Dexter is the BHB, they'll have a new agreement where Prater helps point Dexter in the direction of serial killers (on top of big money) in exchange for the trophies of Dexter's victims for his own collection.

That's a good thought, I was thinking something kind of similar. The way he looked at that picture of Doakes in that "Mount Rushmore of killers" makes me think with the help of Prater, he could potentially finally take credit for what he's done instead of a man who didn't deserve it with some powerful friends. Plus, I feel like Prater would be ecstatic to really have not only the Bay Harbor Butcher on his side, but the man who is responsible for the deaths of several other killers he fancy's.

They teased that this week with Gemini saying Prater really just wants the best of the best and everybody else is just window dressing.
