[The JD]

I like Hannah, but I don't trust her...of course, I think that's exactly what the writers want. And I agree with Pajama, Hannah will die by the season's end, most likely by Dexter. It will be interesting to see which one of Dexter's moral codes she must break before he does it.

Interesting twist, though. It's the first time Dex has made an exception to his target (well, except for the delayed killing of the Trinity Killer, and we know how *that* worked out for him). He's even destroying evidence just to protect her (not for his own protection), another first.

And now we have Deb telling Dexter who to kill, like he's her own personal hit man. And Dex is going to say no because... he actually cares for Hannah. How very human of him.

This season is making me much more anxious than previous seasons. It's finally all out in the open (well, with Deb, anyway), and yet there's more evidence tampering, lying and close calls than ever before... except it's not just Dex now.

And then there's Laguerta. They keep toying with that, reminding us that she's going to figure Dexter out, but not much else is happening there. Maybe next episode.
