Still a good show though, definitely pumped for next week.
Dexter is a serial killer too, so I'm sure they have some twisted connection to eachothers, and Dexter is smart!

Good episode, season 6 and still a strong show, love it.

PS: Who would smile on a crimescene anyways? :P

This season is insane. It is ultra-highly-implausable, but god damn are these kills cool!

I don't think this show has jumped the shark at all, this season is starting to become as good as season 4 (in my opinion anyway).

I'm about 90% sure that Almos is Hanks dark passenger, or at least isn't real. Hanks could have split personalities or something.

In the coffee shop/diner Almos didn't have a setting, nor did the girl even look at him when she came to give Hanks more coffee.

They established Geller as a professor who went underground 3 years prior. He's real, which makes it even more interesting to find out how Dexter will deal with each/both of them.

Really? It has been established he's real?

What evidence do you have to support this? Have any characters been seen talking to him? Has he interacted with any character on the show except Hanks?

Just because the guy had a website doesn't mean he's real. Harry was real at some point and he's Dexter's dark passenger.

Who says Hanks didn't do it himself? Maybe his dark passenger has more control over him than Dexter's. Maybe he has split personalities. You'll notice the girl looks at Hanks pretty much the entire time. She only glances at Almos and to me it looked like a "WTF? Who's he talking to?"


Whether it is a red herring or real, there is no doubt the writers are intentionally trying to slip in hints that Almos isn't real.

It seemed obvious from the scene on the pier at the end of the first episode to me. The way Almos talked to Hanks just seemed so much like the Dexter-Harry relationship.

Almos never actively is seen doing anything (in the church, coffee shop, he was the passenger in the car), only Hanks ever converses with other characters, the relationship is similar to Dexter's dark passenger.

Again, maybe they're trying to make us think Almos is fake but I don't think so. I would bet anything that Almos went missing after he left UCLA (or whatever school they said he was a prof at) and I bet he's either related to Hanks or Hanks looked up to him. I'm convinced he's either the dark passenger or part of Hanks or both.

I also think Mos Def is going to help Dexter find this guy. Maybe he even knows Hanks/Almos.

I just wanted to add that since Mos Def is a priest, I think Dexter ends up telling him that he's a serial killer.

Mos Def ends up dying anyway but I bet Dexter gets that off his chest.

Interesting how they're going to go about this season with Dex letting him go.

After tonight I bet they find out that Olmos was a bit of an oddball but he's alive and well somewhere else, not helping hanks kill people.

Hanks was probably just obsessed with his ideas and has adopted him as his controlling dark passenger.

I called mos def dying but not like he did.

Good point. I just assumed he'll die or that he's dead. I guess he could have survived that.

Not this weekend but I've seen that movie a few times and I really, really enjoyed it.

Dane Cook being murdered was worth proverbial price of admission.

This was just pointed out to me.

When Mos Def comes into his garage he doesn't react to the guy in there and neither does his dog. This likely means that the killer was the guy he had saved. Remember Dex already killed the gang leader. Really too bad and kinda sad.
