Dexter continues this week by raising the question: Is LaGuerta a cock tease, or is she merely the victim of her idiosyncrasies? Not that I’m calling her a trollop (yes I am), but what did she think was going to happen when she put her hair down around Angel? Seriously, that dude’s dongtip was ready to pop-off. A spirited discussion with my lady confirmed that a) Chicks always think other chicks are innocent, and b) I think every chick is just trying to give me a boner. She thought Mariiiiiiiiiia was just fixing her hair, I thought she was trying to joust something out of Batista’s fly.

But anyways yeah they bang, you didn’t think you were going to be off the hook from that painful subplot already, did you? Suckers!

Meanwhile, in the only storyline you probably care about, Trinity and Dexter were kicking it in Tampa. This marks the seventeenth straight episode the show tries to beguile you into thinking that Dexter is finally going to finish Trinity. But all you have to realize is that it is the eighth episode and you realize he’s got like three more to go.

I have to give it to Mr. Trinity Stabber though. As much as he’s a freakshow with a cottage-cheese ass and a propensity for pushing chicks off of buildings, I’ve come to enjoy his interaction with Dexter. I keep feeling like Dexter is Tim from Home Improvement, and Trinity is Wilson. At least once an episode, Trinity manages to teach Dexter some lesson on how to operate like a normal human being. And then Dexter’s all like “Oh yeah shit, that makes sense” and he’s more the wiser for it.

I’m enjoying the slow decay of Trinity’s veneer as the season continues. There was some true discomfort watching him giggle in the diner with a confused and terrified family. He’s like Dexter’s senile old grandfather who just happens to be a serial killer. Dex turns his back for like one second and all of a sudden he’s telling some family how much he’d like to slit their Mom’s femoral artery.

And then there’s Rita. If you’re like me, you’re silently waiting for Rita to turn out to have killed someone in her past. That way, Dexter can finally carve her up and drop her annoying ass in the gulf stream. Then he can take the kids to Disney World and fucking party. C’mon Rita. You’re already the crazy broad who brings the baby everywhere just to yell at your husband, and nags, and don’t give a homie some space. But now you’re going to hook up with some yuppie choad? Add this to the list of storylines that I’m probably going to talk through while watching.
