The 1937 California bungalow, with two bedrooms and 1 1/2 bathrooms, was built as a hunting lodge. Surrounded by mature trees and landscaping, the cottage has vaulted ceilings, skylights and decks off the dining room and master bedroom. There is a flat lawn and canyon views.

I think it would be great if Rita were killed off, which would probably happen by Trinity in the season finale. There are 200 million other women in the U.S., so finding other camouflage should not be a problem. In fact, it would be better, since he could come and go as he pleased in another dating relationship. He has had much more difficulty finding time the his Dark Passenger this year anyhow. I also agree Quinn needs to die. He is a weak character, and irritating. The storyline has really slowed down after some pretty strong early episodes. I expect the finale is good, but want something other than more snoozefests in the next few episodes.

I don't think she should get cut off, I just think they should make her a little less annoying. She was great in the beginning of Dexter. She wasn't around all the time. I understand that they are married and have a child. I just think she should be a little more understanding in who he is. She should'nt try to change him or even try to control him. But now, she getting to be in his face all the time. Dexter seems to be walking on egg shells when he's around her. He doesn't know, if what he's saying is wrong or right, when he talks to her. I am glad about one thing. He got to keep his apartment. I don't understand, why they couldn't just have dated more. I think it could have been, a better dialogue, with more interesting sexy lines or even more female for him to explore and learn from. But, no, I think Rita should be cut off. They should just give her a more interesting role to play. Maybe, cheating on Dexter or having a sexual encounter with one of his buddies, like Caine. I don't know, I just think it should be shocking. Like when Lundy and Deb got shot. My jaws drop. Now, that's a great cliff hanger. Come on guys, think of something like that for Dexter and Rita, something of a triangle, something saucy and sexy. Where we can see Dexter's true colors come out. His animal instincts, his hunger or appetite for lust, whatever it is that makes him tick, tack, tick, tack. And by the way, this Season of Dexter, FANTASTIC. Next Season, TICK TACK.

YGTBK..!? No way man that's ridiculous not gonna happen the writers can't even have a conversation about why Dexter broke his neighbors perimeter lights so forget it she will get cancer or something before that happens.. but should she be killed off because the Family dynamics are pissing everyone off please folks don't be so lazy.
