7/10
Worries

Warning: Spoilers
Should I be worried about this episode? It was an anecdote and a reflection on aging and its impacts on life and the things we leave when we're gone. Well, OK. But... was that it? Sure, Dexter got another bad guy on his table, Debra is having problems with her new position(something that HAS TO develop into a tense and interesting situation), and everybody else is looking for some meaning in what they do.

But, three episodes into the season and we do not even know what it is really about. Alright, religion and philosophy, and topics about those things. It is interesting if the approach is right. However, sadly, it's not. Forrest Gump the second seems too meek for the job, but maybe that's the point. His "guide" hasn't show his true colors yet, and it's time he showed 'em. That last scene was interesting, but it came out of nowhere. It was almost random.

I guess I should be worried, because this is Dexter, and I (and all the viewers) have all the right to be demanding with the show. But once again, I'll trust the writers, who seem to be really out of hand lately, to do the marvelous job they have showed us they're capable of. Please Dexter, tell me you're not dying.
