Review of Argentina

Dexter: Argentina (2012)
Season 7, Episode 8
9/10
They've done it!
7 January 2013
Warning: Spoilers
THIS is how twists should be done. I might have been too inattentive, because the thought of Isaak being romantically involved hadn't even crossed my mind, really. And it was so nicely done, the revealing was subtle and fit perfectly into the story. So did Deb's break down and her revelation. That was not subtle at all (and it was also an interesting twist, because I thought he had already dropped those feelings when she found out about Dexter's true nature), but how can we talk about subtle when she loves her brother who also happens to be a serial killer dating another serial killer. In Deb's words, that is truly fuc*** up.

This episode was about this, and the place we can all call home, but it also advanced marvelously two other interesting story arcs which I look forward to see where will lead: Quinn's and LaGuerta's. Will Quinn redeem himself by at least taking part of the Koshka brotherhood down with him? It seems there is no turning back now. And will he be able to save Nadia? Oh, and LaGuerta, of course. She is getting dangerously close now, showing us he still has gotten some sharp detective skills in her, and that might mean Dexter's end.

We've all seen Dexter get away with all his murders, including the ones witnessed by Deb in the past two seasons, but now all is falling apart around him. He is torn in his search for love, Deb has her world crumbling like never before, Isaak is driven to get his revenge... It all adds up to one of the best season finales in the show, along with seasons 1 and 4, maybe. Let's hope so.
