A couple of questions here
A couple of questions here: Why didn’t Dexter and Lumen ask Emily how Jordan got a fresh vial of her blood for his vial? I mean, what, he was saving that since the early nineties? Also: When Lumen tells Emily that the guys poisoned her, too, it occurred to me that we never really found out exactly how they kidnapped Lumen. Does it feel like some of the whole Lumen story is still patchy? Now that Dexter has so completely accepted her, I’m feeling a little more wary about her. Can she be trusted?
Anyway, back at the new pad, Dexter and Lumen are dressing for their date with Alex. Lumen’s nervousness is incredibly charming. She comes out dressed like a cat burglar and Dexter has to assure her that she looks great. Also, you can tell by the look on his face that he really thinks she does. (Rita,covert spy camera in all her girl-next-door sundresses, never inspired the lusty look Lumen’s black crop cargos does).cctv ccd camera Then he gives her a corsage (okay, not really, but it might as well be).apparel “I got you something,” he says, handing her a box. Inside is a pair of black gloves. “They’re just like yours!” she explains, touched. They both nod as she slips her hands into them and flexes her fingers. Something about this just feels right.
One small problem is Liddy, wearing yet another fantastically garish Hawaiian shirt and operating his own private little stakeout outside of Lumen and Dexter’s place. He’s recording everything they’re saying and totally now has footage of Lumen fondling Dexter’s knives and practicing her downward thrust. Oops. He’s a nasty, bitter loose cannon, and between him and Jordan,lacosteshoes123 Dexter has some serious problems he isn’t even entirely aware of.
Lumen and Dexter show up at Alex’s house and, um, Jordan Chase is there. Shit. “Right on time” he says as he watches Dexter and Lumen break into the front door. Chase calls Deb at the office and tips her off that Alex might be trying to leave town, so she predictably rushes over with Quinn to stop him. Fortunately, they don’t find the kill room. (Did Lumen and Dexter move Alex when we weren’t looking?) But still: Clearly Jordan is onto Dexter in ways he hasn’t totally anticipated. And it would really suck if Jordan gets to be the one responsible for Deb finding out about Dexter. That’s just so not how it should happen.
One other final thought: The look on Dexter’s face when Lumen plunges the knife in concerns me. It’s a mix of pride, erotic exhilaration, and vicarious thrill, and it reminds me of the look Emily describes on Jordan Chase’s face.raybansunglasses It’s that satisfaction that happens when you teach someone else your twisted system and they embrace it wholeheartedly. Lumen doesn’t see Dexter as a monster, she sees him as a really good man, someone who rescued her in so many ways. And through her eyes, Dexter sees himself that way. And that’s what love is, right? Seeing the best version of yourself through someone else? But what about the dark side of that? What about the dark side of our love for Dexter? Bottom line: He’s a murderer. Is the deservedness of his victims’ deaths enough to firmly separate him from someone like Chase?
