Was it right for Harry to take a teen-aged Dexter to an execution? Would that have scared Dexter or turned him on? Would it add to Dexter's trauma? Would it feed his need to kill?

"Good point - the damage was done. I just wonder if he was more scared for himself than turned on by the kill. " I am not convinced he was ever turned on by the kill/execution. I think the turn is not the stopping of life so much as the act of killing. If I understand the personality correctly, it is the control they ave over life and death. The thrill of causing the life to end. The ability to end a life or actually the power they have over life, and the act of killing. This is the turn on rather than the actual death itself. I dont think they are as turned on by watching someone else end a life, but the fact that they have ended the life. Again I am no expert, but this is the reason I am so into this program. The serial killers desire to do what they do. It is something that I can not understand at all, and I am curious as to why they think they should have this power to end a life. Butt the kwel part about this show is the twist, that the serial killer, is kiling the serial killer. I like that part. It is that VooDoo that he do, Do so well. That is a great turn of events.
