    I could agree with the theory that the ITC is Dex's brother because I think his brother in the book is the killer. So the creators probably integrated that part into the story by also making the brother Deb's boyfriend and changing some other things up to make it more interesting. I actually really liked this past episode.

    Haha, I have to disagree about both female characters. I love Julie Benz because I've seen her in various other television shows and it's REALLY creepy when she plays a completely psychotic character because you can't tell, if you're just judging by her voice and appearance. Unfortunately in 'Dexter' she is pretty vulnerable right now, so this won't be one of Benz's better projects. But she still does a good job.

    I thought Deb was annoying too, but then I realized that she's acting quite normally.

    Dexter is questioning their one link- Harry. She knows that if Harry lied, there is a reason, and she doesn't want Dex to get involved, because she trusts Harry, and she thinks that Dex should too. She's also scared that if Dex finds that he has other family it will have an effect on their relationship. Deb is pretty much a hard ass around everyone except Dex. She doesn't want to lose him. It's a common reaction for adoptive families when a person who is adopted starts to look for answers. While Deb is Dex's only family, (that we know of at the moment), Dexter is also her only family. We already know that Deb is very insecure.
