Great episode. Such an awesome season so far.
Regarding Emily/Jordan aka Eugene...
I think it's Stockholm's syndrome. She was the first victim and is also special to Jordan Chase. In some ways she's a living version of Dexter's blood slides. She's too scared to leave (remember what Jordan Chase said about toxic relationships?) even though she's terrified of him.
One of the things this show loves to explore (in addition to the killers themselves) is the people around serial killers and the impact it has on them. We've seen it with Rita, Deb, the "stupid c*nt" (can't remmeber her name) and now Emily. With the last two, the killer has had a sick kind of power over them that keeps them around.
Emily is going to be some kind of PO'd when Dexter kills off Jordan "Eugene" Chase...
