Does anyone think that it is odd that dexter has only killed around 40-50 people. If he started when he was 17, and continuerd until now, shouldn't the count be a lot higher? I know maybe his pace wasn't as high when he was first starting out, but he killed like 10 people per season and the seasons represent about on year.Dexter Plot Danglers

PLOT HOLES FROM SEASON 1:

DexterDexter
"Lying in blood 2 inches thick..."
- If there was two inches of blood, depth 2 inches, in a standard 20 foot shipping container, there would be 180 gallons of blood total, given that the shipping container was of the dimensions described in Wikipedia's containerization page ( L = 18'10", W = 7' 8", H = 2").
- It would require all of the blood from 144 average adults (at 10 pints per person).
- Not to mention coagulation.
- Well if there is a lot of cargo taking up space then that can take a way a lot of that floor room. All so he could have not moved and was laying in the 2in pool around his mothers body parts.

Something about Deb and Dex's ages doesn't make sense. Deb says that ten years ago she would've still been in high school (when Batista makes a crack about dating her if he were ten years younger), putting her at about 28 at the oldest. In flashbacks she and Dex seem to be no more than a couple of years apart, but if he was 3 years old in 1973, in season one he would be 36, I think, making the difference at least 8 yrs. Also, Deb makes a comment in anger about "when you came to live with us," implying she was probably alive when Dexter was 3 and Harry adopted him, so they couldnt be more than 3 years apart. However, she says this as if she remembers when he was adopted, kind of as if he intruded on her territory, but if she was more than about a year younger than him, she wouldn't remember, and even at 2 remembering would be a stretch.
CamillaCamilla, police department's records supervisor
Only known active police personnel who knows about Dexter's discovery in the cargo box. This leads to Capt. Matthews who, according to Dexter, was "tight" with his foster father -- surely he remembers the case regarding two little boys found in two feet of blood.




PLOT HOLES FROM SEASON 2:


Detxer Season 2Dexter
Where was security or even security cameras surrounding the BHB's bodies at headquarters? Seems a little odd that they would just lock up the bodies and go home, leaving them completely unchecked and unattended.
Rita claiming that Dexter "planned on acting on impulse" after he says that he stole the drugs from the evidence locker. Dexter could have just said that he attacked Paul on impulse and stole the drugs afterwards (this seems to be what actually happened).
What about tying the BHB to using a boat? It was never confirmed by anyone that Doakes even had a boat.
At the end of one of the later episodes of Season 2, Deb and Lundy identify who checked the car out of the impound that was linked to one of the BHB murders, but they did not say who it was. Obviously it was Dexter, but they never closed this point, did they?



PLOT HOLES FROM SEASON 3:


Michael C.Hall as Dexter MorganDexter
In the first episode of season three, it would seem counter-intuitive for Dexter to sneak into Freebo's house while he's blarring his loud music. A hunter would want to have all his senses working at their peak and to be on his toes at all times, as to better find his prey in the darkness. Dexter's comment about how the loud music was the perfect way for him to get into the house just seems unfounded and ill-informed, and of course we all know what happened as a consequence to Dexter's actions.
