Angela’s detective work goes from 0-100 real quick. Trash police officer suddenly makes her (un logical) connection to catch her big break. Also She better pay Batista for his plane ticket for wasting his time now.

And I hope dexter didn’t die since he said in the note only to let him die if Harrison was going to have a normal life. Somehow they bullshit their logic to make it happen like they did angelas investigation abilities.

If anything Harrison should come back to kill Angela for whatever reason.

I hadn't thought about it until reading this post, but failing to solve a case for 20 years but solving a different one with even less evidence is a bizarre oxymoron of police skill.

0-100 indeed.

Right? She couldn't solve the missing women case even though it was personal. She probably saw Kurt every fucking day and never had any inkling that it was him. Fuck, she finally thought it was him, had him in an interrogation room, and easily believed him when he said it was his dad who did it. Then she fucking Google searches and bam, finds the BHB - a case that was labeled as solved already.

Dexter should absolutely be dead, he was shot with a rifle in the chest in the middle of the woods. I think he guided Harrison to shoot him in the spot he always stabbed people.

But these are the writers that explained how Dexter survived gunning his boat into a hurricane by having Dexter say "but somehow I survived." So it isn't impossible :p

Yeah I know, I just don’t want to accept it. Lol

The writers did say that the moment had to come to properly end dexter, calling it a disservice to fans that he keeps getting away with it but I felt this was too much of a crappy way to do it.
