Comments on: Louis on Dexter: what a disappointment https://cliqueclack.com/p/dexter-louis-intern-dead/ Big voices. Little censors.

I’ve clung on hoping that Dexter would make a comeback. Deb uncovering Dexter’s secret and trying to unravel the enigma that was Louis, this season was surely what I had been waiting for.

But then the writers decide to write off Louis. The best explanation for Louis’s actions leading up to his death – mere coincidence. Bravo! I should have thought of that.

Honestly, I find Louis (the enigma with a hidden motive) so much more riveting than a gang leader on a vendetta.

Will continue to watch Dexter…. who knows perhaps the writers have left some fragments of Louis that would more accurately justify his actions. His video diaries or perhaps some sort of demented temple of worship. Anything!!! :(

I forget because no one mentions it (except Deb once in a while). Why wouldn’t Masuka bring it up, for example when he caught Dexter looking in the box of ITK evidence? I’d think someone would say, “Man, I can’t believe that guy was your brother!” or “You must feel weird about seeing this hand again.”

Regardless, I felt it was implied that Louis had some additional knowledge about Dexter’s activities as well as a personal connection to the ITK, so it does seem like the writers abandoned whatever they were planning to do with that character.

I thought his character had a lot more potential as did everyone else. Dexter’s retaliation was perfect though, couldn’t have been done better. Although I have a theory of some of the events that are to unfold. My theory of what’s to come involving Louis and his activity in Dexter’s life still continues. My theory is Debra, still on Dexter’s case, making sure he doesn’t kill Speltzer goes out to Dexter’s boat to look for clues. She finds a drop of blood that Ukrainians missed and gathers it for evidence. She gets it tested and finds out it belongs to Louis. She confronts Dexter, Dexter makes up some excuse for example “Louis and I went fishing a while ago and Louis cut himself on a hook. I must have missed a drop of blood.” A little hard to believe but it’s just an example and plus if it’s semi believable then Debra will have a hard time believing it. So she decides to check his car for evidence. Since Louis was in the back of Dexter’s car in episode 2 of the season then Debra will most likely find hair belonging to Louis. She’ll put things together and jump to the wrong conclusion. Not sure how Dexter will get out of that if he even does, but maybe when Debra runs the DNA evidence something will come up in Louis past that he was accused of murder or something. That’s my theory though.

From the moment Louis was introduced, his fascination with Dexter intrigued me. And it just got more interesting with the serial killer game and the hand. I thought for sure this would be the guy that would bring down Dex. And just like that, he’s gone.

I hadn’t thought about Quinn’s almost finding out about Dexter in a while and I hope they do touch on that again, as you mentioned. I also think it is weird that we never talk about Quinn and Deb anymore – ummmm wasn’t he going to propose to her?

Maybe they just came up with a better villain over their winter/spring break and so Louis had to go because he just served no more purpose.

I thought that meant that he knew something about Dexter’s connection to the ITK. In any case, I wasn’t disappointed with Louis’s departure. He was extremely annoying, and his comeuppance was both hilarious (the letter demanding a refund? Haha) and satisfying, though way too convenient. Deb is a great new source of tension this season, but right now I’m most interested in the mob boss. Could he provide the kind of nail-biting cat-and-mouse game that we have not enjoyed since Trinity? Maybe! So far, this season has been great – I’ve enjoyed the first three episodes more than all of last season combined.
