I think it wasn't an unhappy ending.

I think it wasn't an unhappy ending.
Lumen Gone, Quinn Onto Dexter. Kids are back and Deb knowing more then she should.
That isnt a happy ending. I hoped lumen would stay but i knew if the writers have one shred of realitysense inside of them they knew it was over when it was over.
Good episode Leaves a few nice Prospects open for the next season.
Btw Lumen WILL come back for one or 2 ep`s. but leave later (this whole storyline reminds me of my experience )
Re: 5x12
In this case our definitions of happy ending differ greatly.
Re: 5x12
This wasn't a happy ending but it wasn't also very unhappy. Dexter didn't get what he dreamed of and he feels kinda hopeless but he's not in the same spot as at the beginning of the series, he's grown which gives hope for the future, right?
BTW, I don't really understand Quinn's behaviour. I would be so afraid if I were him.
Till the very end of the episode I was waiting for some surprising turn of events and a cliffhanger but to my surprise there was none
Re: 5x12
Good episode and good ending to a great season.
Does Quinn actually KNOW dexter is the killer of robocop?
He knows Dexter helped him by pretending the blood on Quinn's shoe wasn't the robocop guys i think, but other than that, wouldn't he just be guessing?

Well, he saw the photos from the boat, he knew that the shady cop was onto Dexter and it got him killed, he would be stupid not to connect the dots...
Re: 5x12
I was a little bummed. I thought it would end with Deb finding out who Dexter really is. That's going to be an interesting turn of events. Speaking of interesting, I read the last Dexter book and it's astonishing how bad they are. Really. Complete crap. The dark passenger is apparently some sort of mystical alien observer now. Blerg. And that original black cop that knew who he was is some sort of cyborg with metal hands and feet. Well, not a cyborg, but nearly that ridiculous. The TV show is so much better.
Book: Quite specific. It is, however, somewhat fuzzier on the subject of kneecaps.
Re: 5x12
I thought this was easily the worst season yet. It took like 8 episodes took get any real story going and the payoff in the end was disappointing. I've watched every season and every year it got better and better except this year. The only good part was the build up in the 11th ep but the end result was kind of boring.

Best season yet.
Without a doubt! I have always found Dexter to be a good show, but not one of my favourites... that has changed during this season...
Re: 5x12
NOOOOOOOOOO!
Lumen come back please:(

Re: 5x12
Everything in the final episode was fine. By the book (just an expression on my part, I didn't mean Dexter books ). Nothing out of the ordinary... not counting Masuka's hot girlfriend, of course. I don't know else how to call it and I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing... maybe having another shocking death or unexpected twist would've been worse? Anyway, I'm certainly NOT happy about Lumen leaving. I know that Julia Stiles was only a guest star and it's good that her character didn't die, but this show really needs new faces right now when the next season starts.
Re: 5x12
Deb gave the impression of knowing it was Dexter when they spoke at the party or did I just interpet it wrong?
Anyways can someone clarify exactly for me what Quinn said to Dexter when thanking him at the party?
Anyways I like this ending if we get a cancellation which I dont hope we have nice ending. Else they can go for a completly new storyline with some sidestories regarding quinn, deb and dex.
All and all a quality season and I will stay a fan of Dexter
Re: 5x12
Anyways can someone clarify exactly for me what Quinn said to Dexter when thanking him at the party?
Q: Thankyou.
D: For what?
Q: For the bloodwork.
D: Just doin' my job.
Q: Yeah, well, that was the one thing hanging me up. I owe you one. I'm gonna go get a drink.
I was pretty happy with this episode, shame the next one isn't for ages
Re: 5x12
Well, at least Lumen didn't die.
What about that last part with Deb and Dexter? You think she knows?
That blood thing should get Quinn off Dexter's back for a while.
Awesome season, can't wait for the next.
I was so happy when Dexter mentioned that he was a breakfast connoisseur, I LOVE making breakfast meals. Then I was sad again when Lumen had to go. . .

Thanks for the translation he was mumbling. Maybe my speakers dont have good enough spectrum on the laptop.

Yeah I can't believe how you would say that, this season was easily só much better than the 2 previous ones.
Re: 5x12

I believe that Deb has no idea that it was Dexter... not an inkling.
I also believe that Quinn doesn't know that Dexter killed the creepy cop. Remember, Quinn didn't even know that the cop had put up surveillance on Dexter.
He could make the guess, I guess... but he could definitely not be sure.

I agree.
Thing is : Dexter doesn't know that Quinn wasn't behind it, meaning that Dexter is much more worried about Quinn than we needs to be.
Whilst I don't consider it quite as good as Seasons 1 or 2, it's definitely awesome, and a big step up after the disappointments of 3 and 4.
The ending does seem to be something of a reset button though. Lumen gone, Quinn no longer after Dexter, Batista and Laguerta together again, Cody and Aster around again.
Re: 5x12
I find season 4 the best one yet, John Lithgow played soooo great. But this season was, after a bit of a slow start, very good one too.
I don't think that deb has a clue about Dexter. I find the situation with quin a little odd. Shady guy come's with some weird foto's, quin don't want to ruin his chances with deb so he blows him off, then he turns up dead and dexter helps quin getting off easy... If I were quin it would've thrown the suspicion right back on dexter because of the blood work. Not the other way around.
Re: 5x12

I agree, maybe that's why I found this season so boring. For me, the show peaked in the 4th season and everything after that is going to be a let down.
