That twist at the end was the most provocative thing they've done all season. We were left discussing the implications of it, here at our house. That hasn't happened after an episode since Season 1.
The Mitchell Family Descent into Madness was about the scariest thing I've ever seen done on TV. Amazing work. And it just kept getting worse. I thought the kid's hand was as horrible as it could get. Then the daughter offers to be a whore for her freedom, and I thought that was as horrible as it could get. Then the mother is WILLING to whore out her daughter for Dexter's silence, and I thought THAT was as horrible as it could get. And then it got about 100 times more horrible...
I wonder what happened last Thanksgiving when nobody said they were grateful for their beautiful home. I'll bet it was bad. They all knew for damn sure to say it this year!
Dex has a new real problem, though. The family had no idea they were having dinner with two sociopaths. Something came out of "Kyle" there that they totally weren't expecting, and I think it was new and scary in a whole different way from how Arthur is known and familiar and scary. What's going to happen when Trinity disappears into the gulf stream? They'll have to know it was Dex. Yes, Trinity will be on guard against him now, but he's also revealed himself to the rest of the Mitchells, which is a major Code violation.
