Dexter learns the Trinity Killer may be taking his act on the road when the homicidal maniac plans an out-of-town trip. To gather more insight into the mind of the murderer, Dexter decides to accompany him, but isn't really ready for some of the shocking revelations of which he becomes privy. Back in Miami, a technicality is keeping Debra off the Trinity case, but she utilizes others in the department to get her opinions registered.

Ha! I didn't think Trinity shot Deb and Lundy!

But who did?

Must be woman -- awfully short for a man and the other men in Deb's life are not that short.

I wasn't surprised by that development, either! It kinda blows the "Anton did it" theory, though. He's too tall. What about the reporter? She seems kinda desperate for a story, and really-really-really wants to interview Deb since the accident.

Interesting idea but it seems a bit ridiculous to commit a murder simply for a news story. I mean, she obviously will sink to SOME level, but risking something like that just doesn't fit. Then again, rational thought rarely means anything to sociopaths.

IF it is someone we have seen before, who could it be? Who would have the motive to do that?

Agreed it would be ridiculous, but like you said: "rational thought rarely means anything to sociopaths." There may be more to her than we know just yet, too.

As for who could it be, it has to be someone small enough AND with some sort of motive.I can't think of anyone else tonight (and am admittedly very tired), but I'm certainly open to other ideas.

Hey Crandy -- good seeing you!

The reporter was my first thought too, Joolz. I agree with Crandy -- that would be a far stretch just to get a story.

We might not know enough to figure out the identity of the shooter. It may be someone from Lundy's past that we haven't met yet.

I'm digging on Joolz's theory. She is slightly patholigical, the way she buzzes around Quinn to pick up scraps.

Dex's neighbor is moving in on Rita, what is up with that?

Of greater significance -- Rita is liking it.

Least fav epi of the season. Just moved at a snails pace to me. Thought it was rather boring overall even though there was some good parts.

I knew LaGuerta and Batista wouldn't be able to stop their involvement. I have a feeling this is not going to end well for them or us as fans.

I fear for poor neighbor Elliot. And I agree with cs1 she did seem into it.

At least we know who Arthur was building the coffin for now.

Spoiler: next weeks preview

I heard Deb ask Quinn how much he had told Christine about the Lundy shooting. So maybe it was her, but where is the motive. So say Deb gives the interview and in the process realizes Christine knows more about the shooting than she should.

Oh and Jennifer Carpenter has a smokin hot body. I was right there with Masuka.

Do DNA checkpoints have any basis in reality? I thought one had to be a suspect before law enforcement could request DNA. Somehow I can't the public voluntarily going with giving that up unless they have to.

Gak, enough of Laguerta/Batista. Be friends with benefits and just drop this storyline, it makes me ill.

Reporter shot Deb and Lundy? Pretty desperate measure to make a story for your job. I'm thinking someone we don't know - though it did appear from Lundy's face he might have known who it was.
