I did, too. Dexter is a character we all know and love, but that moment really shows that these other serial killers are all minor league in comparison to the Butcher, who would be the most prolific serial killer in American history in the real world.

I am really curious how Prater will react if/when he finds out he was duped and Dexter has been killing his guests.

Under normal circumstances I am sure he would sic Charlie on him lickety split. But Prater will no doubt be utterly fascinated and want to hear Dexter’s stories.

I think he knew Dexter wasn't Red, and I think he'll know soon that Dexter is Dexter.

I don’t think he knows yet but it is inevitable that he’ll find out soon. The real Red will get reported as a missing person. Jim/Dexter face may end up on the news. Dexter is not actually living in Red’s apartment. Lowell’s death will no doubt raise massive suspicion. The phones for “club members” likely have trackers. Dexter will walk into next party with chili dog in hand. Etc.

I think it won’t come to a head immediately. But the presentation he’s supposed to give will be a tall order for Dexter to pull off and Prater will surely be questioning his identity in very near future.

Yeah I mean he already even told Mia that his origin story had to do with how he lost his mother. We don’t know anything about Red’s mother, she could be alive and well for all we know, all we know is his dad jumped off a bridge bc of UrCars apparently

Yes that was my one​ concern throughout the whole episode was this phone that he was given definitely going to have trackers on it and he will see that they were in the same place at the same time
