Storyline

Dexter returns to Miami after his road trip to Nebraska and get a frosty reception from Debra who has been under pressure to get results in the doomsday killer case. He does his best to make amends, but doesn't share what he knows about Travis and Professor Gellar. Thanks to Masuka's intern Louis, the police now have a list of 200 of Gellar's former students living in the Miami area and the team fans out to interview them all. It doesn't stop the Doomsday Killer from striking again with a new tableau: the Whore of Babylon. Meanwhile Capt. Laguerta takes a particular interest in the death of a high class prostitute and seems desperate to have the case ruled an accidental death. Written by garykmcd

WHY and HOW did it came to THIS mess?????
21 November 2011 | by (Greece) – See all my reviews

I am such a big fan of Dexter.Is one of the best shows ever made.Having said that i must add that this episode is maybe the worst episode in all seasons!! It makes me wonder about the writers, about the plot (if there is finally one) about the direction, about what the hell happened to the last 2 episodes and especially this one! What we have here you see is an excuse of a plot , without any climax and several smaller stories just trying awkwardly to get in and about. Scenes that make you wonder how quickly and roughly and in a real hurry they were made. The actors suddenly stopped acting in some scenes.Especially in the scene with Laguerta and Debb , and Gellar and Travis. The DDK murder happens with the least impact on the viewer. The inner dialog of Dexter leaves you wonder about what exactly is he thinking now and why.

And it all sums up in WHY and HOW did it came to THIS mess????? is the director gone missing? Did DDK killed him also? forgive my sarcasm but i was in a real awe about what i was watching suddenly!

My only wish as a real fan is : Please please please don't ruin completely the so much promising sixth season ! Its such a same to see this beloved shows episode so roughly made...
