Does Dexter really love Rita?
Like I said, these explanations only work if you don‘t have the context the viewers have, which the characters in the series didn‘t. Except maybe Batista wouldn‘t leave LaGuerta‘s death alone, but that was the least of the problems that season. The Doomsday Killer plot was one of my personal favorites, plus we get to see Deb learn about Dexter. Many close calls in the season that add tension and the fact that Dex gets himself way to close to the killer once again makes it all more exciting to me. All but one of his victims were killed prior to having their skulls sawed into for the postmortem operation.
Debra talks her way out of immediate danger, but fears that LaGuerta will soon have definitive proof of what she and Dexter had done. Later, at Batista’s New Year’s Eve party, she learns that LaGuerta has gone in pursuit of Dexter, who she fears is in the act of killing Hector Estrada , the man who ordered his mother’s murder. She goes to the scene, where she finds Dexter poised to shoot an unconscious LaGuerta. As she pleads with Dexter not to do it, LaGuerta regains consciousness and urges Debra to kill her brother.

Ultimately, she steers the conversation towards a favor she needs. From a nearby cupboard she pulls out a jar containing brain matter , and says that it was left on her door step.
Rita’s death remains a staple of horrific and saddening character write-offs in TV history. It is almost surprising that it would not prove to be Dexter’s most controversial moment. It is suggested that both Batista and Quinn know the truth, but turn a blind eye because they wanted to kill Saxon themselves.
Debra then renews her search for Harry’s mistress, and finds out about Laura Moser, and the fact that Dexter and the Ice Truck Killer are brothers. She tells Dexter the news , and then tells him that he is “the one consistently good thing” in her life. Debra was born to Doris and Harry Morgan on December 7, 1979. She is the foster sister to Dexter Morgan (Michael C. Hall), whom Harry brought home after rescuing him from the scene of his mother’s murder. Tough, foul-mouthed, and rompish, she craved her father’s attention and envied Dexter for the amount of time Harry spent with him, unaware that Harry was training him to be a vigilante serial killer. The penultimate season of “Dexter” saw his relationship with Deb facing unprecedented strain.
She doesn’t realize however, that it is her brother Dexter Morgan and his girlfriend at the time, Lumen Pierce, on the other side of that sheet… Although Dexter Morgan’s primary rule was to not get caught, several of Dexter’s characters found out about his dark passengers over the course of the series.

“She’s definitely more than Dexter’s girlfriend,” Jones said. “She has a 16-year-old adopted daughter. She’s passionate, she’s compassionate, she’s strong-willed she’s flawed.” As Jim Lindsay, he is dating Iron Lake Chief of Police Angela , a new character.
During a Thanksgiving dinner, Debra remembers a conversation with Christine Hill. Debra realizes that Christine’s knowledge of the shooting was not released outside the police department.
