Count me down as another one who hoped Deb would of looked behind the curtain. It seems to me that is the way the series will progress anyway, not much else they can do if the show is ending soon. I guess they want her to find out because of her own "intuition", and not luck; but her not looking behind the screen was quite frustrating.
Then there is how Quinn got off the murder charge in a matter of minutes.
First off, if Quinn was a suspect they would never let his girlfriend work the scene of the crime, and probably not even his own department. Also, they would never let a co-worker, and brother of his girlfriend work the blood evidence.
Even if the blood does not incriminate him, what about all the other evidence that linked him towards the murder?
-The camera equipment Liddy was using, that had Quinn's prints all over them, and were signed out in his name.
-Lack of alibi; he was there for the murder anyway.
-Phone messages; he may of deleted his own messages, but I am sure they could be recovered. Why would an innocent man delete messages from the victim?
-Quinn's attitude at the time. Maybe they didn't notice, but you could tell Quinn knew what was up at the time, and looked guilty.
-Motive? If they looked at bank records, I am sure they could of noted that Quinn was paying off Liddy for some reason. Possibly due to extortion, or something along those lines.
Maybe it's not the best circumstantial evidence, but there is no way he could slip that charge in one night.
Obviously, they were trying to wrap everything up for next season, but they could of done a much better job. The writers wanted to end the Quinn storyline, so now I bet he will not suspect Dexter at all next season. Why else have Liddy play out the way it did, if it wasn't to resolve Quinn's suspicion? Lazy writing, no question about it. Still a good season, but not as good as last.
Oh, and this one is for Cecil.
Bart: Oh. Well, I guess that explains everything.
Homer: Not everything. There's still the little matter of the
whereabouts of your wife.
Maude: Um, I'm right here.
Homer: [sarcastic] Oh, I see. Then everything is wrapped up in a neat
little package.
[everyone looks at him]
Really, I mean that. Sorry if it sounded sarcastic.
