You Will NEVER. Believe. This!

S06E09

So, this is the big episode with the big shocking twist which everyone (including our regular recapper) saw coming a mile (or at least the larger part of a season) away.

At the church, Dexter frees Travis from his shackles and tries to predict the location of the tableau so they can stop Gellar. Travis plays the shell-shocked victim and is utterly useless, but Dex sees "2LoT" written on a painting and a matching parking pass, and with some Internet searching, it looks like a Professor Casey (an atheist) is the victim. Dexter also takes Travis and puts him in a safe hotel room, so that Gellar can't get to him. But that doesn't stop Gellar from blogging about false prophets (Dexter) and returning to the fold or whatever.

Dexter goes back to college and listens to Professor Casey's lecture and figures out a plan to save the dude. So he grabs Travis, they go back to the school late at night, split up (really?) and Dexter ends up trapped in an elevator because he's too damned lazy to run up the stairs. Naturally, Travis saves him, but its too late for Prof. Casey, who has had his hand chopped off and has turned up dead. His hand is in Travis's hotel bathroom, with a bloody message on the wall. Hope Dexter doesn't have to pay that security deposit, because blood on yellow walls has got to be a bitch to get out.

Dexter is still bound and determined to save Travis from his dark passenger (to somehow prove that he's a good father), so they return to the church where they split up (again!) and Travis ends up unconscious on the floor, and Dexter stumbles down to the basement to find Gellar's body in a freezer, where it has been for quite some time. Turns out that Gellar was Travis' dark passenger, but not of the actual alive kind and that Travis is the Doomsday killer all by his very lonesome. Since we've seen The Sixth Sense, this really comes as little surprise. Still, its nice to know that someone gives the killer figment of their imagination a kindly Mr. Rogers sweater.

Deb is still having feelings. And talking about them. A lot. She's also oblivious about the DDK killer and is shocked that Dexter took the time to read up on the subject matter. She's also shocked that Louis knows how to use the Internet. And after finding the latest DDK victim, they all end up covered in pools of blood Carrie style, which was the highlight of the episode... hell, the last few episodes. At least she finally gets the balls to tell LaGuerta off about the whole dead call girl case, and the other non-shocking reveal that it was Matthews who was with the call girl at the time of her death. Who else would LaGuerta have been covering for, really? Guy is the king of making bad decisions -- he's the one who promoted Debra, who clearly has no business trying to solve crimes when she's so emotionally unstable.

And in stupid subplot, Quinn's passed out on the floor and Angel has to go wake his ass up. Turns out Quinn doesn't know where his gun is, so they track down the stripper he hooked up with... but in truth he banged her unfortunate-looking mom from the waffle house. Then their car breaks down and they beat the shit out of each other. It's like they are on a USA show of their very own.

Also, Louis and Jamie make up, go to his expensive and bizarrely decorated apartment and have lots of sex. He also has a creepy prosthetic hand in his apartment. As in the Ice Truck Killer. Do with that information what you will. -- Angel Cohn

With no significant time having elapsed from the end of last week's episode, DVO babbles about his Dark Passenger before Dexter takes an axe and cuts Colin Hanks's shackles. Colin Hanks claims not to know where EJO would have gone, so Dexter points to "EJO's" depiction of the tableau and asks where EJO might stage it, or who the victim might be. Colin Hanks is still useless, though, probably making Dexter wonder why he bothered getting rid of the shackles, so then Dexter takes a closer look at the painting and sees "2LoT" written near the bottom. Colin Hanks - and this may shock you - doesn't know what that might refer to, but a quick search of "EJO's" books yields a parking pass with that same 2LoT written on it. Colin Hanks then claims to feel dizzy, presumably from the burn wound that "EJO" inflicted on him, so Dexter takes him off to a place he says he's found where EJO won't be able to get to him. Now that we know for sure that EJO doesn't exist anymore, it only seems right to start referring to him as Tyler Durden.

Heh, Dexter has brought Colin Hanks to a hotel called the Colony, but at the beginning of the establishing shot appears to be the "Colon." Free bottle of Metamucil at check-in! Dexter gets Colin Hanks into his room, barely stopping to talk to Harry, which makes sense since in this conversation Harry's even more useless than usual. Inside, Dexter gives Colin Hanks what I'm guessing is an untraceable cell phone (and if that's the case, I could see that coming back to bite him later) before ministering to Colin Hanks's wound. Colin Hanks wonders what he's supposed to do with himself, but Dexter points out that he can't do anything but sit tight, since he's wanted for multiple murders, and he won't be able to help Dexter if he's in jail. Can I just point out, again, how misplaced Dexter's trust is? He's transferred his silly Dark Passenger construct onto Colin Hanks with the most tenuous of evidence, and ignored multiple warning signs that everything here might not be as it seems. Was there any sign at that church that Tyler Durden was living there, as Colin Hanks claimed? Any car or other means of transportation that Tyler Durden seemed to be using? I know complaining about the show's sloppiness probably isn't worth the energy and isn't going to change anything, but Dexter has gotten worse and worse during the show's run about taking things at face value, and given that he's someone whom the show wants us to believe is amazingly meticulous and follows a rigid code, it's unbelievably irksome. Why does he trust someone who participated in the murder of multiple innocents, even unwillingly, particularly when he could be contacting his Svengali as soon as Dexter's out the door? Speaking of which, Dexter tells Colin Hanks to sit tight and try to think of anything that could help him, and bails. Yeesh.

At Topeka Metro, Dexter, probably through not-Google, learns that 2LoT refers to the Second Law of Thermodynamics - the tendency for order to become chaos. He then notices that the parking pass came from the "Miami South" campus, and wonders if his victim could be from there. Some more not-Google-fu turns up a professor who wrote a book called "2 LoT's Tales," which supposedly authoritatively disproves the existence of God, or something, so Dexter's sure he's found his victim. Fairly convenient that Tyler Durden used this agenda to target his victim given that all the others were pretty random except for Lisa, and she wasn't even the original Whore target, but sure, Dexter's got it figured out. Thank...not God, I guess.

Wow, Deb will NOT SHUT UP about Dexter, but the therapist, whom I'm going to start unironically referring to as "Saint Therapist" for her ability to stay calm in the face of Deb's unflagging ridiculousness, uses a metaphor about a chair and a table to get her to see that if Dexter's always been guarded, it's kind of silly to expect something different from him now. Deb says it makes her feel alone when Dexter won't confide in her, and when asked why that might be, offers that her mother died when she was a teenager, and while you'd think they might have covered this already, I don't want to cast aspersions on anything Saint Therapist is doing, especially since Deb goes on to admit that her father didn't pay her any attention growing up, which is probably why she latched onto Keith Carradine, who by the way was shot in front of her, did she mention that? Saint Therapist sympathetically winces at that one, but Deb's not done - Keith Carradine probably seemed like a smart safe choice to her following her engagement to a serial killer. Saint Therapist takes that in and then wonders if Deb would like to see her more than once a week, and from Deb's relieved chuckle, Saint Therapist, I think you could probably tell all your other patients you're going on hiatus.

Later, Dexter tries to apologize for the night before, but Deb, armed with her new understanding, tells him it's cool that he's a chair before heading in to start a briefing. He's of course puzzled by the metaphor without context, kind of hilariously regarding a chair in the room as if looking for answers and even asking Batista for help that's unforthcoming. Masuka then enters with news of the absent Quinn's behavior the night before, as if anyone cares, and then Deb begins by asking about Colin Hanks. Anderson offers that he hasn't reported to work in "days," even though it couldn't have been more than two days ago that Dexter visited him at his place of employ, and then Batista steps up and explains that there are three remaining tableaus, the of which is the "Bowls Of Wrath," a series of punishments visited on the people, as Dexter pipes up, to Deb's surprise. Greene then offers that Tyler Durden just updated his blog, which says that in six days, the world will end with a solar eclipse, and all those following false prophets will be doomed. DVO unnecessarily offers that the passage could be referring to him, like that matters, and then Anderson notes that there are tons of comments on the post, and I'm SO SURE the RSS feed is still working on whatever bullshit hosting program EJO was using three years ago. (I don't even know how Colin Hanks is updating EJO's site, for that matter. Did he think to ask for his login info before killing him?) Greene then offers to try to backtrack the post's IP address, and of course Dexter looks all shifty and DVO has to tell us AGAIN that he wants a shot at EJO first, like, maybe if you were a better serial killer and the show had better writers you would have wrapped this shit up already and wouldn't be whining to us now.

I mean, even with the other stuff on this show being so dumb, this Quinn "arc" is insulting. Suffice it to say that he's passed out on his floor when Batista, and I'm not sure why he's even involving himself rather than just let Quinn get fired, shows up. It doesn't take long for Quinn to realize that in the process of hooking up with some stripper in the back of his car, he lost both his gun and his phone, so he tracks the latter's GPS to a location that's apparently halfway across town. Awesome, see you episode! (Sigh.)

Deb's morning is looking up, as the father of the dead call girl from last week accosts her in the station, who knows all about her cracked sternum and the paramedics' claim that they didn't perform CPR. Deb asks how he came by the information, getting this reply, "Does it matter?" Deft way to evade the question, writers! Deb tries to give the bureaucratic "My hands are tied" response, prompting the guy to go to the "I don't know if you have kids" well. Cliché trump card! Seriously, why doesn't he just go to the press? Maybe he doesn't want everyone knowing his daughter was a hooker, but it seems like that's going to get out one way or the other. His plea, however, gets Deb to offer to "run it upstairs," and after last week I can't believe she thinks this will go anywhere, but I suppose she has to say something to get the guy out of her office.

Masuka comes in to talk to Greene, who validates my original faith in him by correctly explaining that Batista doesn't think he's good enough for Jamie, although I probably would have pointed out that he'd surely feel that way about anyone. Then Masuka, despite getting his gross hormones all over it, gives him some sound advice about Jamie, saying he needs to tell her how special she is, and then she'll be the one to take care of Batista. Great, Masuka made me not want to kill him for almost three seconds. Moving on!

Dexter is on the phone with that professor's school and has adopted a pretty good stoner voice as he acts like a failing student who needs to talk to the guy. He secures the dude's schedule (and given his stoner voice, I'll give credit for the part where the professor teaches at the "Burner Hall Of Science")...

...and then turns up to the Colon, at which Colin Hanks asks if he found Tyler Durden, like YOU GAVE HIM NO LEADS AT ALL, guy. Dexter does offer that Tyler Durden updated his blog, and Colin Hanks busts out his laptop (he has that how and why, now?) and theorizes that the "false prophets" idea is pointed at him. Dexter asks if he's heard of that atheist professor ("Trent Casey" is his name), and Colin Hanks has, adding that Tyler Durden hates him. He wonders how they find him, and Dexter replies, "I'll let you know." Yes, please do!

Dexter is helping out at a picnic at Harrison's churchy school for some reason? I guess it's to illustrate that he loves Harrison, in case we weren't clear on that point.

Okay, so in his shitfaced state, Quinn hooked up with a waffle-house waitress who's at least old enough to be his mother, possibly a young grandma. I mean, she's not quite truck-stop level, but she's hardly attractive; Batista at least looks like this spectacle was worth the price of admission. Speak for yourself, guy. Quinn, looking nauseated (with the hangover he must have, I'm surprised they didn't just have him yak into the bushes), retrieves his missing piece and phone, and then bleats, "Oh my God, we took pictures." I'm surprised the phone didn't throw itself off a cliff after being subject to that.

Oh, now Batista's stupid Trans Am starts smoking, and they can't call the station for a tow because they have to keep this errand secret, and Quinn's a total unapologetic dick about the whole thing, even making fun of Batista for his failed marriages and the fact that his daughter won't talk to him until Batista tackles him. Unfortunately, Batista only gets in a couple swings before some Nosy Parker from across the street yells for him to stop or she'll call the police. Batista limply rolls off Quinn, and the fact that he didn't take the opportunity to reply "I am the police" or some such equivalent is another way in which this show is severely lacking.

Dexter wanders into the lecture hall (they show him approaching for five seconds, another sign that they can barely fill an episode) to hear the British professor Casey giving a lecture that's incredibly condescending with respect to any kind of spiritual belief, but while DVO immediately, and correctly, labels him a "self-important asshole," DVO resolves to try to protect him anyway during his office hours that night. Unfortunately for that plan, when Dexter goes up to the podium after the lecture ends and tries to tell Casey that he's in danger, Casey pish-poshes him, saying he gets all manner of death threats every week. Given my impression of him so far, I have to say I'm disappointed in Miami's lunatic fringe for their lack of follow-through. Regardless, Dexter checks out the building's floor plan and discovers that there's one exit and one elevator leading to Casey's office, and DVO intones, "Finally, some use for [Colin Hanks]." I mean, even given that he thinks Colin Hanks is playing straight with him, I don't know how he thinks he's going to be a match for Tyler Durden. He can't be more than a buck fifty soaking wet!

As Dexter sets up a kill room at the church, Harry babbles at him for a while. Relevant info is that (a) Dexter intends to give Colin Hanks the identity of one of his kills so he can start a new life, (b) Dexter resents Harry for not even trying to get rid of his Dark Passenger, (c) it's important to Dexter that Colin Hanks be given a second chance. I mean, "whatever" barely covers it, right?

Staking out Casey's office building, Dexter asks Colin Hanks what EJO is like, and Colin Hanks answers a bit of a different question as he says that EJO took him under his wing and convinced him that God had chosen them to be the two Witnesses. Dexter asks why he'd want to bring about the end of the world, which is actually a terrific question, but Colin Hanks merely replies, "Have you ever wanted to wipe everything clean and start your whole life all over again?" and Dexter seems moved by that instead of pointing out that there are ways to do that that are slightly less drastic than CUTTING PEOPLE UP AND ENDING THE WORLD. Dexter offers that once Tyler Durden is gone, Colin Hanks will be able to start again, and then Colin Hanks "sees" Tyler Durden nearby, and Dexter... takes his word for it without looking? Wow. Not even trying anymore. I mean, if the show feels the need to have EJO walk by in front of us, it seems clear that Colin Hanks is truly seeing him and that he thinks he actually exists. But think about it, given what's to come: Is that at all logistically possible? Essentially, this means that every time he's separated from Dexter - updating the blog and now doing all the stuff he needs to do to pull off killing Casey, and the ridiculous amount of work required to set up the tableau - is being done in some sort of fugue state, with no planning of it before and no memory of it after. It's just not possible. If, on the other hand, Colin Hanks is actually aware of what he's doing, that's more supportable as far as the logistics go (although I still maintain many of the tableaus have required far more work than one person could do, even the MacGyver of religious nutjobs, as Colin Hanks appears to be), but it means that the show has been cynically dangling images of EJO in front of us when Colin Hanks hasn't really been seeing them, or at least is aware that they're not real. But the most likely scenario is that the writers know that none of this makes sense when you think about it for more than two seconds and are relying on the bulk of their audience not to notice, which is hateful. I imagine they will give some sorry attempt at explaining Colin Hanks's mental affliction (because with THREE episodes left, how else are they going to fill the time), but I expect it to make as little sense as everything up to this point has.

As if to back me up, when they enter the building, Dexter decides to take the elevator to try to catch Tyler Durden, as if that's any way to sneak up on him, and not five seconds later, the lift stalls. So we're to believe that Colin Hanks's fugue state kicked in immediately upon the elevator doors closing, and he took not five seconds after that to disable the elevator (which I don't know how he would even do; don't you have to find the control box?) Preposterous, even in context. Dexter manages to climb out of the car but can't get the door to the landing open, but then he hears a noise, and momentarily, Colin Hanks is using the fire axe to pry the doors open. Oh, and speaking of momentary events, the amount of time between the elevator stopping and Dexter hearing Colin Hanks above? One minute fourteen seconds. One minute fourteen seconds for Colin Hanks to get up at least to the fourth floor (we saw the elevator pass the third floor before it stalled), to find a weapon, presumably the axe, to injure Casey without getting any blood on himself, to restrain or incapacitate him, to, presumably, hide him someplace not only where Dexter wouldn't find him but also from which he wouldn't be able to escape, because it's going to be a while before he can get back and finish the job, and then go back, clean the axe, and get to work on the door. Impossible, fugue state or no fugue state. They needed more time even in The Sting.

Also, Dexter asks if Colin Hanks saw Tyler Durden, and you'd think it'd give Dexter pause when he says no. He was very clear that the only points of egress were the disabled elevator and the stairs that Colin Hanks used, right? I guess after last week at the church he's under the impression that Tyler Durden can fly, because I don't know how else he could explain that escape. Anyway, they go to the office and find papers strewn about and a small amount of blood on the floor, and Dexter conducts no search at all...

...instead heading back to the hotel room and coming up with the bright idea for Colin Hanks to send Tyler Durden a message saying he's reconsidered and needs to see him. Colin Hanks says he'll do it immediately, and Dexter tells him to keep at it and to call him as soon as he responds. And no internet porn while you're at it!

In the morning, with Harrison on his lap, Dexter checks the blog and sees that Colin Hanks posted as the "Prodigal Son" (obvious, but I'll give him that one), and asked to come home, getting no response. Deb then calls with the news that DDK struck again at Miami South...

...and then Dexter turns up to find Casey, very dead, laid out in his lecture hall, the alpha and omega carved into his stomach, with his right hand missing and all his blood drained. I don't need to keep doing the math on this, right? Draining someone's blood is no quick or easy task; neither is chopping off a hand. Does Colin Hanks have a bone saw hidden someplace? A nearby slaughterhouse at which he strung the guy up (he does have a neck wound) to bleed out? Not to mention what's to come, to wit: Everyone then wonders where the Bowls of Wrath are, and Anderson pipes up that they searched the room for trip wires or anything else suspicious and it came up clean. Dexter notes that the guy's stomach cavity appears to be hollow, and Masuka opens it up and confirms that his guts are missing. You can add that errand to your timing spreadsheet, as this: Dexter looks up into the room's lighting structure and sees something, and warns Masuka not to touch the body further - too late, as he sets off a device that sends the bowls hidden up top spilling forward, which rains blood down on the people below. Despite the presence of so much blood, Dexter is legit pissed now...

...while in the hotel, Colin Hanks wakes up as if from a nightmare, goes into the bathroom, and is horrified to discover that the words "Bring The False Prophet To The Church" are written therein in blood. I mean, I'm starting to be impressed that the show keeps finding new ways not to make sense, but obviously we're being told in no uncertain terms that Colin Hanks has no idea that he's Tyler Durden. But does he not question the idea that EJO could have located him, entered his presumably-locked hotel room, and carried out this errand without waking him up? And how does he account for losing so much time? Does he just not notice? Anyway, Casey's severed hand is in the sink, and I'm not sure what the Biblical significance is there, but the charge for cleaning this place is just getting steeper.

Not surprisingly after the incidents of the morning, Deb's back with Saint Therapist, who gets a little more familial information, particularly that Dexter was adopted and was biological brothers with the Ice Truck Killer, and also that Harry and Dexter did everything together while Deb was left behind. Saint Therapist then leans forward and tells Deb that in order to heal, she's going to have to take responsibility for the fact that she has a history of choosing inappropriate or unavailable men. Deb, unsurprisingly, isn't so enamored of that characterization (and I will say it seems a bit unfair to blame her for the Ice Truck Killer, who said all the right things while specifically targeting her), but Saint Therapist's broader point, that she needs to break her patterns if she wants her life to change, is well-taken, and Deb looks like this might be striking a chord. THANK GOD.

Deb runs into LaGuerta in the elevator, and LaGuerta, after a cursory inquiry as to whether Deb's okay after the bloodbath, starts to tell her that she can't reopen the call girl case, but Deb, so over this conversation her nose is bleeding, replies that she knows this dance, and she's not participating in it anymore - she's breaking the pattern. "If you have a problem with me investigating a potential homicide, which is my job, then fire me. Otherwise, I am reopening the case." Nice, Deb. LaGuerta's speechless in the face of Deb's newfound power, allowing Deb to make a clean getaway...

...and then outside, we get the real and completely obvious reason LaGuerta's been on Deb to drop the matter - Matthews was the john involved. I mean, who else? He swears he did all she could to help the girl and wonders what Deb is thinking, and LaGuerta of course can't resist opining that said tenacity is why Matthews promoted her, against LaGuerta's recommendation. LaGuerta then assures Matthews that she'll handle Deb, because Lauren Velez is still a series regular and God knows they don't have anything else for her to do.

Dexter calls Colin Hanks and tells him about Casey's death, and Colin Hanks explains the hand's significance - the phrase "the writing is on the wall" originally came from the Bible as a warning that the reader's number is coming up. Colin Hanks then informs Dexter that Tyler Durden contacted him through the blog and wants him to meet him at the church that night. He does not, however, tell Dexter about the hand or the bloody message, not that that's going to be relevant for long. Once they've disconnected, Deb comes in for the Bowls blood work, and after Dexter tells her it came back pathogen-free, he offers that he's there if Deb needs to talk. Deb, however, isn't interested, so Dexter asks if they're okay. Deb: "I have no idea if you are. I'm sure not, but I'm working on it." Once she heads out of Dexter's office, Greene comes bounding up with the IP address they're been looking for, and Deb takes him and Anderson...

...to some business that has an unsecured network, AS IF. Greene tells Deb that if there's an antenna nearby, the signal could range for a couple miles, so Deb gives orders about how to search the area, unaware that the creepy church is very nearby.

Greene is having Jamie over to his place, apparently for the first time, as she's kind of blown away by how nice, big, and well-furnished it is (games sell, yo); in addition, he's got a lot of collections of stuff like action figures prominently displayed. She's like, collect all the crap you want, it's probably just appreciating in value, but why did you blow me off? You'd think she would have wanted that answered before agreeing to see him again, but when he admits that her brother asked him to back off, and that scared him, that's all she needs to hear, and she moves in for a kiss...

...and then, guess what, they're screwing. We start a tasteful distance away, and move even farther back to reveal, on a showy shelf all by itself, the Ice Truck Killer hand. Whether he bought it from the Horrific Nightmare Of An Intern directly or used the errand he did for Masuka to gain hold of it seems irrelevant; also, I suppose I'm supposed to be shocked by this development and to stop rooting for Greene. Naturally, I will do neither of those things.

In the bushes near the church, Dexter and Colin Hanks have a far-too-long conversation that amounts to this: They're splitting up, again, so Colin Hanks can go in the front door and talk to Tyler Durden, while Dexter will go in the back. Reeeeeeeal complicated. Then again, the show proves how bereft of story it is by spending a full twenty seconds on Colin Hanks and Dexter moving to their respective positions...

...and then Colin Hanks has entered the church, whereupon he sees Tyler Durden with his back to him. Tyler Durden deadpans that he's surprised Colin Hanks hasn't burst into flames. "God is very kind." Wasn't that funny, but I'll give it a "heh" anyway just to be divinely kind myself. However, my magnanimity is wasted, as they have a long, drawn-out discussion of what God wants or doesn't want, which concludes with Tyler Durden saying Colin Hanks can have one more chance, by coming to him now. This, yet again, makes little sense, because obviously Colin Hanks has been carrying out Tyler Durden's will whether he's aware of it or not...

...but speaking of stupid, pointless conversations, Harry is nattering away at Dexter while the latter sets more kill stuff up, like this should have been DONE ALREADY and also wouldn't you have DRUGGED TYLER DURDEN before worrying about the plastic in the kill room being just so? This show is so bad now. Just aggressively defies the most basic logic at every turn. And it wouldn't make me nearly so mad if the increasingly-frequent consequence weren't to make Dexter look like, not to put too fine a point on it, a straight-up moron. Also, we know Dexter hopes to be a better father - it's been mentioned numerous times this season -- so for Dexter to stall by saying this explicitly to Harry is an absolute joke...

...not to mention the fact that in trying to get better at fatherhood, he's become a much, much worse killer, as he wanders out into the church and is all, "Durr, where's Colin Hanks?" He kills some seconds looking around, but eventually finds Colin Hanks on the floor, unconscious but alive. He then continues scanning the area and realizes there's a trap door up at the front of the place, so he opens it and descends...and finds EJO's corpse in a freezer LIKE WHO COULD HAVE SEEN THAT COMING, although it is unintentionally hilarious that the corpse even still has his glasses on. I don't give myself credit for coming up with the EJO-doesn't-exist idea, as tons of people did, but I do take some kudos, such as they are, for recognizing how poorly the show is written and as such being able to note all the places it was being horrifically sloppy and contradicting itself and still not backing off the theory. Also, Colin Hanks gets up, sword in hand, so I guess Dexter's in danger, girl. From the previews week, it does seem that Colin Hanks is totally nuts and really thinks Tyler Durden is alive, and while that could have been interesting, forcing Dexter into a moral dilemma in dealing with a mentally unbalanced killer who's unaware of what he's doing, the show has exhausted any goodwill it had and then some with this terrible, terrible plotting, so I have the feeling it's going to be a slog no matter what. Other than that, really looking forward to week!
