Dexter Season 5 Episode 1 - MY BAD Review - (s05e01)

Dexter Season 5 premiere, "My Bad," Review – ( S05e01)
In the very first episode of Dexter Season 5, we saw Dexter in so much pain after Rita’s murder. We can guess from the premier that how strong this season is going to be. It was quite exciting to see how the show progressed after a major character loss in previous season. The scene was to be carried on from Rita’s murder spot; it started precisely where it left off. Rita was found dead in the bathtub whereas Harrison crying on the floor and then picked up by Dexter.
When police appeared at the crime scene, Dexter looked well shocked and had no clue what to say to the questions being asked by police. The worst answer you could possibly imagine in this situation would have been “It was me “, Bingo!  And that’s what Dexter replied.
There is no doubt that Dexter thinks he is responsible for whatever happened and blaming himself because he couldn’t save his family. At one point in time, Dexter could actually kill Trinity when he had the chance to do so but he was analysing the situation by just observing Trinity who was a serial killer and also had a family. So all these thoughts put Dexter in some kind of confusion which resulted in Rita’s loss which was the last thing Dexter would have thought. :~(
The way police reacted inside the house at the murder spot was quite bizarre; making jokes at a place where someone has been murdered was dreadful. Mazuka always shows his obsession with sex—the kinkier the better—and is not cautious about propositioning every woman he meets “I imagined her naked a million times, but never like this.”  Says Masuka. Quinn indicated that Trinity has never done a murder like this before; he got even more dubious when he discovered that Rita and the neighbour Elliot had kissed.
The kind of part Debra had to play in this episode was to be in an unusual situation…. She remained mentally powerful, composed and mature. She had to do everything from pick out Rita's casket to pick out her funeral dress. She cleaned the washroom with Quinn and tolerated. Quinn also helped Deb to pick out the right dress for Rita’s funeral.
The biggest sign that Dexter was starting to lose his social skills in this stunned state was when he broke the news to Astor, Cody and Rita's parents about Rita's murder after letting them spend the entire day at Disney World so they could have one last good day. As everyone reacted, he borrowed a line the funeral director said to him earlier in the episode: "I'm sorry for your loss." It's such a ridiculous thing to say at that moment -- it's something you say to people you don't know that well, or if you don't know the person who died very well -- not what you say to the parents and children of your murdered wife. (And how sad was it that Cody and Astor got Rita a Mickey Mouse hat?)
Dexter Season 5  Episode 1 - MY BAD
It wouldn't really be "Dexter" without at least one dead body, and strangely, it's when Dexter kills a guy, that he comes back to himself. Even weirder, it's when Harry ghost makes his reappearance. Dexter had pulled into himself so much that he couldn't even manufacture his Harry conscience. You would think Harry would disapprove of Dexter killing the rude guy in the grimy bathroom, but instead, he said: "That's the first human thing I've seen you do." It's weird when bashing a guy to death with an anchor counts as human, but I see where he's coming from. With Dexter's animal-like wail, he finally let out the rage and pain. This murder definitely was not up to Harry's code -- there was no proof that the guy he killed was anything but a jackass, and it's going to be a bear to clean up the crime scene.
Back at the cemetery, everyone was nervous and questioning since Dexter hasn't shown up yet and Deb was furious about the vulture FBI Agents waiting around since Dexter missed his interview. But Dexter shows (albeit looking a little casual) and gives a very appropriate eulogy. It was heartfelt, but stayed in character. He mentioned that Rita was brutally murdered (in front of the kids) and that she was innocent and odd characterization. Even stranger, he mentioned that he wasn't even human before he met her. Then he has the realization of all realizations -- that he loved her, and that he's capable of love. He said this in his inner monologue, which is where he comes up with all his truest truths.
(One strange aspect of this episode is Dexter burning down his Killer Memento Shed. I get the symbolism -- a fresh start and all, and anger that his Dark Passenger is what caused Rita's death -- but it was risky. Rita's murder happened in the house and there was probably no reason the cops/FBI would look in the locked shed, but it was still strange. And although Dexter was not in a good frame of mind, and was at that time planning to disappear, burning the shed just called attention to him.)
