It wasn't earned at all. They teased us with an amazing ending everyone wanted only for that. We were so jerked around. Batista was gonna come and have a final confrontation with Dexter, and Dexter was going to go to jail and pay for his crimes. I didn't even mind Dexter dying it was just the execution was so poor. If he was going to die either way, why have him run so hard from the electric chair? Why tease that ending if you're just going to do something dumb to end it. And don't even tell me it subverted expectations because everyone knew Dexter was either going to get killed or get caught. The entire season of this show was good up till Dexter kills Logan and then it goes off the rails hard. How could they mess up the ending at the final stretch yet again. He agonized for three episodes about whether or not to kill Doakes before deciding not to. We didn't even get an inner monologue about how sad he was. And what was with Angela just telling Harrison to run at the end and giving him twenty bucks?
