9 October 2012
Warning: Spoilers
Dexter is my favorite show but season 6 was bad.very bad.If it wasn't for the fantastic ending in the finale,i would have lost faith in this show."Are You....?" is an excellent return to form for Dexter as it does all the things that made seasons 1-4 fantastic to watch

This episode opens with a misleading scene where Dexter speeds towards Miami Airport and he books a flight ticket there.Return to the church,and we pick up from the "oh god" in the season 6 finale.Quick thinking was always one of Dexter's strength and he does it here to convince Debra that he killed Travis in self defense.They burn the church down and everyone at Miami Metro is convinced that it was a suicide. Laguerta finds the blood slide that Dexter had clumsily dropped

Mike Anderson is killed by a Viktor Baskov and a huge investigation follows.In Viktor's car they find a dead stripper.Batista and Quinn shuts down the strip club where the stripper worked and questions the manager.After this,we get our first look into this season's big bad,Isaak Sirko.

Meanwhile Debra tries to dig deeper and finds similarities between the table where Dexter kills Travis Marshall and the table where she was almost killed by Brian Moser.Deb digs a lot deeper and this leads to a fantastic ending where Debra asks Dexter the question he has dreaded all his life

Both Michael C Hall and Jennifer Carpenter were at their best in this episode and hopefully Jennifer gets some recognition this time around
