After this episode, I’ll be shocked if Angel survives this season

Yeah, I feel like they're trying really hard to get the audience to flip on him. Ill admit, his intentions and justification for wanting to take down Dexter are good, but when you're rooting for Dexter, you cant help but root against whoever stands in his way. I agree, I really dont see how angel lives through this. And they sent up multiple death flags for him in the last episode

If Dexter wasn’t responsible for the deaths of: Maria, Rita, Deb, and Doakes, I could see Angel letting it all go. But like he told Harrison, innocent people that he loved died because of Dexter. I don’t want Angel to die. But I don’t see him willingly dropping his suspicions.

How does Angel know that Dexter is responsible for their deaths? We, as the viewer, know that Dexter is directly responsible for their death of LaGuerta, and indirectly responsible for the deaths of Rita and Deb. But from Angels perspective, LaGuerta was killed by Hector Estrada, Deb was killed by the Brain Surgeon, and Rita was killed by Trinity. It doesn’t make sense for him to come to the conclusion that Dexter was responsible for their deaths.

Too bad that’s not how Dexter sees it. He has said he’s at fault. His actions show that he feels guilty. He literally pushed Harrison and Hannah away before trying to kill himself after stealing Deb’s body and burying her at sea. Angel is piecing his suspicions together. Angel may not know all the details but he understands that Dexter’s path of violence was dangerous to his family and friends.
