Spoiler Alert Do not read the following article unless you've watched Dexter's series finale. Seriously no complaining about spoilers in the comments. House rules
Dexter executive producer Sara Colleton wasn't kidding when she said a storm was coming The Showtime hit series came to an end on Sunday Sept. 22 bringing Dexter's (Michael C. Hall) eight season killing spree to a sure to be polarizing finish.
After countless victims and endless bloodshed did Dexter make it out alive or did one of TV's greatest antiheroes ultimately pay for his sins And how did Debra's (Jennifer Carpenter) journey come to an end We told you how original showrunner Clyde Phillips envisioned the series ending but here's how it all really went down...
SCOOP Clyde Phillips exclusively reveals original ending to Dexter
Though she survived last episode's shooting Deb ended up dying in Dexter's swan song becoming Dexter's ultimate victim. Deb suffered a stroke and was put on life support and Dexter decided to pull the plug ( I can't leave you like this. I'm your big brother he said). And like he's done so many times before he then dumped his beloved sister's body at sea.
Devastated by Deb's death Dexter decided not to join Hannah (Yvonne Strahovski) and Harrison in Argentina. I destroy everyone I love. I can't let that happen to Hannah to Harrison he reasoned. I have to protect them from me. He also broke our hearts into a million pieces when he called Harrison and said I just want to tell you one last time that I love you. He then rode his boat Slice of Life into the hurricane.
Cut to Hannah reading a story about the boat's crash and the death of the person driving it. But twist Dexter didn't die as the last scene focused on a lumberjack leaving work and heading to his secluded home where he sat at a table and then just stared into the camera. Yes this man is Dexter Morgan and yes he faked his own death. But is he still killing We guess we'll never know. Gah
SCOOP Will there be a Dexter spinoff
Tearjerker Moment
The flashback to the Morgan siblings sharing a moment right after Harrison was born absolutely gutted us with Deb telling Dexter Ever since we were little. Don't you remember the monsters Every time mom would turn off the lights they'd be running all over the walls and I couldn't go to sleep 'cause I thought they were going to eat me or something. They were the shadows. You came in and explained in your dorky little voice. 'It's just the absence of light Deb.' I don't even know why I remember that but I do. And even then you stayed in my room. You slept on my floor. You made me feel so f kin' safe. You've always taken care of me. I know you're going to be a great father 'cause you've always been a great big brother. All the tears
Deb telling Dexter to go f king be happy in the hospital room was pretty gut wrenching too especially after learning her fate.
