The car pickup and eventual end scene have me perplexed out of my mind. I'm sure there could be a time interval in which this could have occurred, but it still seems unplausible to me. I'd like to go further in-depth with this, and how long it would take for someone to make a return trip from the Florida Keys to Miami again, but there still is no account for why there was a need to return at all. Safety in the morning, Arthur was accounted for in the afternoon into the night, and then, an invisible blow to the soul.


One thing I wanted to have clarified is why there was yet another child abduction in Miami after the cycle was complete. I guess, we as the audience, can now speculate that the Trinity killer was starting anew his vicious cycle, which ended in Miami after 30 years (and was supposed to end altogether because he had planned to kill himself thereafter) but he was 'saved'. So, he starts it again by scouting for a child, but Dexter interferes, and I'm not sure if Trinity is the sort of ritualist that cannot procede unless the first step been completed. Apparently not the case, as he had found a window of time (however miniscule, in my view) to find and murder the second victim in his four-part-family-tree-of-destruction. he broke his own rules in the cycle to accomplish this, (the single young woman) but to Miami Metro PD, this would look to be yet another instance of Trinity's hand (I doubt they'll find a jumper and a bludgeoning, but that's how it may open next season, them still looking for the subsequent victims in the chain).

I'm sure it'll go away in time, but there is still a pit in my stomach after watching that last episode unfold. Tragedy, man.
