It's from an illustration of the entire cast of the show - it IS Masuka!

Could we get a link to the picture that came from?

If I can dredge up the memory of where it came from - sure.
The death of Lady Diana was also predicted by Moby Dick.

Anybody else on here actually read the books? The show is amazing, one of my all time favorites, and I'm pretty impressed especially over this past two season of how they have really brought the character alive as portrayed in the books.

My question to the forum would be "how seriously TWISTED" do you think Jeff Lindsay is, to have come up with this character and actually written MULTIPLE novels about him?

Just watched the season 7 premiere...

Spoiler:
I think it was completely unnecessary for Debra to spend the entire episode figuring out that Dexter was a serial killer. I would have liked it better if Debra would have came right out and said "Fuck you, Dex. I want the fucking truth."


EDIT:

I think the conversation should have gone like this:

Spoiler:
Deb: Fuck you, Dex. I want the fucking truth. I wasn't born yesterday.
Dex: Well, I guess you caught me red-handed.
Deb: Looks like the cat's out of the bag.
Dex: I guess what goes up, must come down.
Deb: Stop beating around the bush.
Dex: What you see is what you get.
Deb: Dammit, Dex.
Dex: Fine, I'm a serial killer. Are you going to turn me in?
Deb: We'll cross that bridge when we come to it.

Yeah, I wasn't too fond of this episode. It wasn't bad, but there were some things that I didn't really like, and other thoughts I had in general:
Spoiler:
All I kept thinking was "Getting real tired of your bullshit Deb. Reaaaaal tired." This will probably turn out to be another case of Harry's Code being wrong; that Deb is actually accepting of Dexter and won't just shun him.

I didn't understand why La Guerda sent the slide to evidence, and then stole it from said evidence before it was processed. It just seemed like an unnecessary step.

It was also interesting they killed the black policeman off, again. We were betting who would be the first "important person" to die off this season, and everyone was pretty sure it would be either the black policeman or the babysitter.

Also, it's obvious that the boyfriend of the babysitter is going to be evil, but I just don't even care anymore. Maybe it's my fault because I can't remember who he is or what his deal is; I just vaguely remember he was interested in Dexter. Not sure how he got into Dexter's bank accounts, but wouldn't it be obvious it was him since he was using Dexter's computer and got caught by Dexter? I guess his plot arc must be starting soon.

And speaking of plot arcs, I wonder how/if that Ukranian mob boss is going to be important. Does he get pissy and come to America? Or perhaps they just wanted to show us the head-honcho of the Ukranians. Look at how opulent his abode is and seethe in hatred at his interior decorating choices!

Spoiler:
Deb being slow on things: Shock seems like a reasonable enough explanation for why it wasn't an immediate thing.

Louis: You know, the creepy intern Masuka hired? The one who made the serial killer game that made Dexter really angry? The one who coded a GUI in Visual Basic to track an IP address is apparently a magical computer hacker?

LaGuerta's blood slide: As far as I can tell, she thought it was evidence one of the forensics people accidentally dropped or something. Then when she was talking to Masuka and heard about the only person to take blood slides being Doakes, she took it. Possibly thinking Doakes was actually still alive and trying to protect him, or maybe some other reason.

Also, Mike got killed because he got a spot on Sons of Anarchy and wasn't really going to have the time to commit to Dexter.

Yeah, I was going to mention the SoA thing.

Spoiler:
Laguerta never believed Doakes was the Bay Harbor Butcher, so when Masuka said that she realized the implications of her find and is apparently going to consider what to do before revealing anything.

So, I recently started watching this show, and I'm enjoying it a lot.

But the show's creators apparently assume everybody speaks Spanish. However, I don't. Does anyone know where I can find subtitles for the spanish bit. Preferably english subtitles for both the english ánd spanish. Would help a lot.
