Dexter series 2

[chokkie]

Managed (fortunately) to record the last episode of this series and watched it last night. However, we can't quite work out how Dexter knew Lila was in Paris (and which hotel she was in) , so that he could (a) send her a postcard and (b) so he could come and find her and finish her off once and for all.

Can someone please throw some light onto this. Had they already decided to go to Paris and stay in this hotel when Dexter was making his mock plans to go away with her?

Please put two fans out of their misery.

There is a gap in time, which would have given Dexter time to find out where she was -

Lila was not in a hotel - it's an appartment. Notice that she opened the door, and checked her mail - receiving the postcard with Doakes' picture on. The mail came through the door - in a hotel it would have been at reception.

Also, in the mail was a letter addressed by hand - inferring that she had been in Paris long enough to have been in contact with friends, one of whom had written to her.

Add up those facts, and Lila has moved to Paris and found an apartment - all of which would make her traceable to someone like Dexter - she probably never dreamed he would follow her there - much less to find some closure in his ongoing search to live in his own skin.

What a wonderful series - roll on number 3.

Brilliant series, best thing on TV , now have to wait for new series. I'm glad they didn't end it on a cliff hanger, couldn't have coped with that!! and also glad Lila got her just deserts! I think Dexter's sister is brilliant in her role, totally scatty and unpredictable. Can't wait for next series.
