Dexter...

Yikes, the weird crush/courting thing between Dexter and the Ice Truck Killer is very creepy. I don't think Rudy could get much more obvious in his crush on Dexter short of hitting on him explicitly (more than he is already, that is, what with showing up at Dexter's place with dinner, and leaving his cell so he has an excuse to see him again and such). It's a wonder that Debra wasn't more suspicious when Rudy, who is supposed to be her boyfriend, kept asking after Dexter while she tries to have sex with him, when it turned out that Dexter wasn't happy about Rudy's bloodbath gift. I found that very freaky, because to me it seemed as if Rudy had counted on Debra telling him about a positive reaction to get turned on and into the mood to have sex, kind of with Dexter by proxy, because obviously he's more interested in Dexter than her, and then when she told him that Dexter had freaked out, Rudy couldn't perform at all. Before this I also thought that he was having sex with her mostly to get closer to Dexter, but somehow I didn't think it to be quite as direct.

Yeah, that happened to me too, that I was rooting for him to kill the ex-husband. It's seriously unsettling what and whom this series makes you feel sympathy for. But at least you are not alone in your ethical maladjustment. ;)
