Dexter “Sins of Omission” Episode Guide

Relationships took a heavy hit on this week’s Dexter. Quinn’s still spectacularly crashing and burning after officially ending it with Deb, Batista’s interfering with his sister’s romance, and Deb and Dex are having serious communication issues. To top it off, the Doomsday Killer is still running amok, and his latest kill hits Travis particularly hard.

Read on to get the details on “Sins of Omission.”

Dexter heads over to Deb’s new apartment to smooth things over after his impromptu trip to Nebraska. She forgives him surprisingly quickly and updates him that Miami Metro’s on to Travis.

• While attending Brother Sam’s funeral, Dexter wonders if Brother Sam really did change him. He drops by Travis at work and asks him for help in finding Geller, but Travis is still pretty reluctant.
• LaGuerta and Deb are still butting heads, this time over Miami Metro’s latest case of a call girl found dead in a hotel. LaGuerta thinks it’s an open and shut overdose, but Dexter’s blood report suggests that another person was present. She tries to present the case to LaGuerta, but she feeds Deb some BS story about keeping the numbers down and orders her to drop it. LaGuerta then makes a mysterious phone call, commenting that “it’s done.”
• After doing a little research, Dexter stumbles across the sin of omission in the Bible. In a second attempt to get Travis to lead him to Geller, he tells him that knowing Geller is doing evil and not doing anything to stop him is just as bad. Travis reluctantly acknowledges this, but he doesn’t want to help Dex until he gets his sister out of Miami and out of Geller’s line of fire.
• Travis heads to the school to pick up Lisa and send her out of Miami, but Geller heads him off and knocks him out with the shovel. He wakes up chained to the floor in Geller’s hideaway and learns the awful truth – Geller used his sister in his latest tableau as the Whore of Babylon.
• In an awful fashion, Geller has arranged the Whore of Babylon scene in the middle of the schoolyard where Lisa Marshall worked. Dex finds a label on the cloth used to create part of the scene, and follows it through to meet with a one Father Gallway. It’s a bust, as the Father’s memory is too far gone to get anything useful from him, but he discovers the location of Gallway’s abandoned church and heads over to see if Geller’s using it as his hideaway.
• Deb does some awesome detective work simply from borrowing a pen from Dexter – she realizes that he drove off to Nebraska and thinks it’s because he wanted to talk with Jonah. She’s incredibly hurt that he keeps shutting her out and even though she tries to make him dinner and just talk, he leaves. He’s heading off to kill Geller, but as Deb doesn’t know that, she thinks her attempts to reach out to Dex are falling on deaf ears.
• Dexter heads over to the church in his kill outfit, ready to take care of Geller once and for all. He finds Travis chained to the floor instead, and notices Travis staring at the rafters. Assuming Geller is up there, Dex goes to search for him, but the professor manages to slip away. A resolved Travis tells Dexter that he’ll help him find and kill Geller at any cost.

Have a great Thanksgiving everyone, and make sure to watch next week’s Dexter to see what happens in the appropriately titled, “Get Geller.”
