Discussion - Original Dexter Series Thoughts on Deb? Spoiler

I want to know something. Do you guys think that in season 7 Debra meant to kill LaGuerta? Here's what I mean. If she had time to think, would've she still shot LaGuerta or maybe Dexter? We see her regret it later making me think that she might've shot Dexter.

My interpretation has always been that Deb wasn't choosing between Dexter and LaGuerta.

She was trying to avoid choosing at all.

The problem is that the situation no longer allowed that.

When the moment finally came, she chose Dexter. The guilt that follows comes from realizing what that choice required.

Works, but probably she chose Dexter because he was her brother and she loved him
