DEXTER SPOILER

So... this video is a bit of a spoiler for those of you who haven't reached season 3 of Dexter, but I just couldn't resist. This is just a great scene for any show, for anyone. For those who are caught up to Dexter, and/or for those who don't watch the show; scroll down and enjoy :)










































"Most actors toil in obscurity, never stepping into the spotlight, but if you hone your craft, work diligently, you might just find yourself cast in the role of a lifetime."

I watch this clip and for a second, I imagine that Dexter isn't Dexter, but the actor Michael C. Hall. He gives such a brilliant performance that I forget that he is playing the role of a sociopath that is incapable of expressing emotions. Then it hits me like a ton of bricks; this is Dexter Morgan talking, the serial-killer. His inner monologue solidifies the fact that it is all a lie. He considers himself an "actor." He claims to have honed his craft and worked diligently for years, and that he has finally find himself cast in a role of a lifetime.

Is Dexter finally feeling love? Or is this what he wants to feel? Does he truly consider his life an unanswered question? Or does he simply believe that this is what it feels like to be in love? Is Dexter Morgan, the serial-killer who is/was incapable of feeling... falling in love? Or is this just another event that he uses to sharpen his acting skills?
