    (Highlight text to reveal any posible spoilers)

    When we last saw Dexter, the serial killer was attempting to tie up loose ends while fleeing. He was well aware that his true nature would be exposed and as a result would be taken into custody, if caught. As a result of that knowlege, he sends Hannah away ahead of him with Harrison. Then, Dexter pushes to create some distance from them but reassuring he would join them later.

    A crucial driving force in this finale was his guilt and his sister Deb. The knowlege of what became of his inaction crippled him. Deb was one of the accepting family members in his life so it was upsetting for him to have disappointed her. upon her finding out his true nature. After killing Saxon, He goes back for one last visit with Deb, to comit a mercy killing. Dexter takes off with Deb’s body, wrapped in a white hospital sheet. Deb’s lifeless body sinks into the same waters where he’s dumped many other corpses.

    The storm is coming. By all appearances, Dexter will die, Right? But those presumptions are wrong. Hannah,  is made to believe t”Dexters’s Death.” The Series end approaches. After faking his death, Dexter gets away with all of his crimes. Simultaneousy, he throws away the chance of a “normal” existence, and exiles himself.  He sports an overgrown beard and lives in a cabin as a lumberjack. Thus, removing his danger to others. However, that is not the ending fans wanted for their beloved serial killer character, Dexter.
