i dont think they would of made him have a vision inside a vision(dexter saw himself sitting in the same place

That…really sucked. This season was amazing…but to kill Rita? I saw this actress in the new boondock saints movie and she was amazing. sassy, spitfire totally different from her character on this show. after seeing that i thought they might go a different way with her character, maybe develop it a little more, show her strength.
I hope they re-think this1. Too sad

I don't know if I liked it or not. I have mixed emotions about it right now, I just got through watching. It was definitely a twist, but what did you expect to happen to her? I actually expected her to get offed a while back, she married a SERIAL killer! Come on now, the end of Dexter because a serial killers wife, um dies? Supposedly even, that's up in the air too. Either way, STILL and awesome series, the premise is great.

*****SPOILER*****
Rita was killed by Trinity's emotionally disturbed son. “I Know you're a killer, I know what you do!”.

i hope rita is not dead.. it would really suck

To stop watching after 4 seasons because the season didn't end the way you wanted it to seems a little overreacted. Yeah never ask for a second spit to the face. lol

Yeah, I hate it when seasons end the the regular predictable way. Most people just want their story book ending I guess.

****SPOILER ALERT*********

yeahh i reallly couldnt enjoy this ending because the whole tension point of season 4 seems to have revolved around the thrill of him juggling a wife and kids… now IF Rita is dead then I really don't know where they can go with it though I look forward to more with Rita – I really enjoyed her character, if she was needy it was because she was a wife who was actually pretty tolerant of her emotionally retarded serial killer husbands behaviour.. haha

well they say girls like bad boys so maybe thats why she was so tolerant… I think i'll start killing people

I haven't been able to catch the finale of season 4 as video is “not available”. Any suggestions where else i can watch it? Thanks, anyone?

Althought it fits, the one thing that lingers in my mind is that it was layed out very similar to Dexter's experience. The Trinity Killer was completely unaware of Dexter's past nor did any of his other killings leave one of the children near the body. This raises the question then, why was the child there? It makes me wonder if someone, similar to the first season, is playing with Dexter again. But if that was the case, it limits who it could be to Debra or a senior or retired officer. However, I could be completely wrong, but I guess we will find out.

damn that shit blew minds that came out of nowhere shit cant wait for season 5

…

why is it removed, i wana see it once more?

does anyone know about another place to watch the last episode please?

does anyone know about another place to watch the last episode please?

has it been announced anywhere that there will be a series 5 ?

I couldnt stand Rita always moaning at him for not sharing and going off the deep end because he didnt tell her about not getting rid of the apartment whilst she hadnt told him about a previous marriage.

Dexter saved Rita form an abusive, alcoholic, ex husband who she complains about constantly, and what does she do, She complains when the bastard dies in jail. MAKE UP YOUR MIND !!! Also she cheats on him and he forgives her and she complains. WTF is her deal. . She should be understanding about Dexter's emotions simply from that fact that he witnessed his mother's murder. I'd like to see anyone in real life question the emotions of someone who has gone through such trauma. It does not surprise me at all that Rita's actress is now on Desperate Housewives, since her entire role on Dexter seemed to be a giant audition for that show about women cheating, and drama around every corner.

wow.. so much for happy endings.

Im totally confused now. Trinity killed Rite before Dexter killed him?

There will be a season 5. I went to Paley Fest for the Dexter panel. The cast was there along with the writers and Executive Producers. They said they weren't sure how many more seasons there would be, but there will be a season 5. It was great to meet the cast and everyone. Michael C. Hall looked so tired, but was so nice to stay to sign about 100 autographs.

Thanks for that. Hope he gets better, great actor ..
Bring on season five

**********Spolier***********

Did not see that coming.
Real shame that Rita is dead, I actually liked the character, she was growing on me. Not sure how Dexter is going to get out of this one.. :O
To the debates below .. I think it was obviously Trinity. I don't think, as some have said, that it was part of his cycle. I mean, he never killed that boy, and when he was at the Theme Park/Arcade the second time, that was to lure Dexter there so he could tail him. (Back to the station as it happens). I think, once he found that the flat was no longer his, he found out some other way where Dexter lives now, and went there to find him. He found Rita there and, well .. killed her. Either out of spite (for Dexter fucking everything up), or just because he had to so she wouldn't call the police or something. He of course did it in the bath, because the is how he kills the women that age. He isn't mega evil, so he didn't hurt Harrison. The whole point in it though, is so Harrison has the same scar as Dexter, and so 'Harry' is proven right again.
My thoughts anyway. Looking forward to season five, though .. feeling a little depressed at the moment ^_^

******SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!!!*********

Also .. I re-watched the deathbed scene. It is pretty clear the Trinity killed Rita. When Dexter talks about having a family etc .. Trinity does 'the eyebrow thing', and laughs, and says he like a child and how he dreams of something that can't exist etc. I think it is apparent that it was Aurther that kill her.
