http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/10/08/DEXTER----Waiting-To-Exhale.aspx Last week we saw Dexter (Michael C. Hall) impotent, blocked, and unable to kill. Yet when his watery graveyard of victims was discovered, he felt exhilarated. How much is Dexter a monster? Is there a human ghost in this killing machine? To be complete, to act and function true to his nature, this week he must engage in an emotional release- a ritual of letting go. Gang enforcer Little Chino got off twice last week. First when a witness against him turned out to have a drug history (the DA wouldn’t build the case on such a shaky witness) and second, when Dexter couldn’t contain him or dispatch him. This week Little Chino sends a message to his territory by offing the would-be witness with a machete. Elsewhere, Debra (Jennifer Carpenter) is still reliving the trauma of her involvement with Rudy/Brian/The Ice Truck Killer. The FBI is sending in super agent Frank Lundy (Keith Carradine) to assemble a task force to identify and capture the “Bay Harbor Butcher” (aka Dexter). Rita (Julie Benz) is determined to have proper burial for abusive ex-husband Paul and Dexter nearly falls into Little Chino’s hands by breaking one Harry’s rules. “I need to clear the decks and my head.” Dexter says of this. Maybe he even said or meant, “Dex.” Debra has a mental break where she pulls a gun on an unarmed child who in turn gives up the location of the 29th Street Kings’ gun and drug stash. This is Little Chino’s gang. When Little Chino seeks revenge on the squealing child, Dexter is laying in wait and gets his chance correct his earlier errors. en-US Critics Rant info@criticsrant.com Subtext Version 1.9.4.0 http://www.criticsrant.com/images/default_gravatar_bullhorn.png http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/10/08/DEXTER----Waiting-To-Exhale.aspx 77 60 http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/10/08/DEXTER----Waiting-To-Exhale.aspx#1690 heard this was a pretty good show. havent had a chance to catch an episode yet. brokun1 http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/10/08/DEXTER----Waiting-To-Exhale.aspx#1690 Tue, 09 Oct 2007 05:32:37 GMT http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/10/08/DEXTER----Waiting-To-Exhale.aspx#1746 would like to watch it but no showime.lol tinkluvspan http://www.criticsrant.com/archive/2007/10/08/DEXTER----Waiting-To-Exhale.aspx#1746 Fri, 12 Oct 2007 12:14:04 GMT
