Dexter says that line when he's on his way to kill Jimenez. The way he says it seems like foreshadowing, but I don't know of what - any ideas? 10  out of 15 found this valuable. Do you?

I don't necessarily think it was foreshadowing, but more just an expression of Dexter's anxiety, which BTW has been noticeably growing as the plot continues. This is a series about a serial killer that is learning to be more human. What could more human than anxiety? 3  out of 3 found this valuable. Do you?

Well said, he's becoming lie the rest of us; I just wish I weren't feeling anxious about a t.v. show!

They really emphasized the difference between Dexter and Doakes in this episode. They're almost certainly going to kill Doakes. I hope a lot of people don't get disappointed when Dexter turns out to be a serial killer and not much more. That scene at the cabin was important - he had Doakes there begging him not to kill that guy, and he did it anyway, almost gleefully. He only showed any real emotion when Doakes' reaction reminded him of his father. 1  out of 2 found this valuable. Do you?
