So I'm just now getting around to watching season 6...

3 episodes in and I have to say it's been the worse season start yet.

It's all moving so slow. The killings are a snoozefest.

Nothing interesting. All very predictable.

The whole Dexter and his kid thing I feel is meaningless time on the screen.

The whole Religion theme vibe I'm getting from it so far is completely not interesting in the least.

Speaking of which; Mos Def's character is the only thing remotely interesting so far.

Again, I just finished the 3rd episode. So I'm hoping something starts developing soon.

I'm really hoping the twist isn't going to be what we all think it is, and while I still love the show, the writing is nowhere near on par with the first few seasons!

Also I fear this person may have gotten the ending spot on :\

Dexter will ultimately find out Gellar isn't real, and in Travis' mind.

Dexter will still want to kill Travis, but taking in what he learned from Brother Sam coupled with Travis' obvious mental illness, Dexter will allow Travis to live and let the justice system have him for once.

Dexter will learn understanding and forgiveness, which has been the major theme of this season.

Hmm, it is all possible, there would be a few holes in the way the acting and such was done if the first point was valid. Maybe I am missing the twist you all seem to know is coming.. I definitely don't see it.

This season has to be one of the better ones, I honestly found the Trinity one and the one with the big Mexican/Cuban to be boring seasons.

I don't see the twist either. So far I LOVE this season. I just wish I had the rest of season so I could watch them back to back.

The first point was the twist, if you're looking for it, there are massive hints and especially in the last episode to back it up. But then again it could just be a red herring from the writers, either way it still makes for entertaining TV!

Maybe I am just looking at it too basic? Like I don't see how he could be chained and bloody with a poker in the fire without Geller.. unless this is fight club all over again? Spoiler some of the hints, the only one I could possibly see is Dexter not Seeing Geller.

- no one has interacted with geller whatsoever except travis, even when other people have been in the same room, e.g. when the woman serves travis coffee she completely ignores geller who doesn't even have a cup or plate.

- in episode 5 they are praying near the start. travis looks at geller and a close up on geller shows blood on his head. travis double takes and then the blood has disappeared in the following close up of geller. travis talks about only being able to hear his own voice banging around in his head soon after this

- his sister describes travis as a good artist/painter in front of her class. i don't think we've seen travis paint once, but we've seen geller do it plenty of times.

-just watch it as someone with deeply worrying mental issues and internal struggles and it makes just as much sense

etc...

regarding this ep (sorry)

again, gellar isn't really necessary to explain anything. we know travis rode past his sister's as deb was leaving so we know he knew she spoke to the police. why might a crazy ass person tie himself up and burn himself? that doesn't need to be explained. also remember certain physical arrangements don't have to be literal. i know in this case dexter found him tied up but be prepared to take things like that as metaphorical, either as a sole explanation for certain depictions or as an underlying thing... e.g. the good part in travis is being held back. the show has already had dexter's bro pitchfork someone!

geller disappeared when travis's sister called...

travis's childhood background and relationship to sister is very similar to dexter's. dexter is a psychopathic serial killer.

We have seen travis paint. He restores old paintings and such as a living

okay, that all makes perfect sense, I definitely didn't watch it deep enough to think like that. It is true though with Dexter as a prime example (The dead/not around characters he sees as real).

sorry, i dont know if it's really necessary to wrap all this in spoilers... i'd just like to add that i think there are enough facts about geller to be sure he did exist once. but i think he's probably now dead, unknown to anyone else. my guess - inspired by the blood that was briefly trickling down geller's head - is that travis killed him for some reason and he's probably rotting in the abandoned church somewhere. hey, one twist for those already expecting the geller's-in-his-mind twist might be that geller is still alive - perhaps far away and completely ignorant of what's going on with travis, or perhaps held captive by travis, who knows. could prove interesting if dexter ran into geller whilst still in the dark about all this ;)

All of that doesn't explain why the girl Travis let go said there was two people. She was hearing things, too?

She never said she heard two people if you listen closely to what she says, she said something along the lines of, "I heard one of the men refer to the other as professor". She never actually heard two people and just assumed that if someone is talking to another person known as "the professor" then there must be two people!

That is where it's at its most ridiculous. But remember she had a blindfold, can't remember off the top of my head but I'm sure it could be explained (however ridiculous). Look, the writers aren't completely dumb, there is absolutely no doubt that they are aware they are writing this in a way which allows this interpretation. It's fully intentional. Whether it's a double bluff or haven't made up their mind on how to end it I can't say.

Edit, nice one Kyle. Not so ridiculous.

Yeah I'm pretty much agreed with you on the two scenarios you posted about Gellar as well, anyway all the speculation makes me get psyched up for the finale!

And I just rewatched when the girl was talking and the conversation went:

Girl: "One of them kept calling the other professor, but I didn't see either of them, I was blindfolded"

Batista: "There were two of them?"

Girl: "The younger guy was the one who let me go, I sorta could tell that he was the weaker of the two. The younger guy said he kept calling me the ######."

and then later she describes how she thinks the professor jammed his knee in the back of her head to keep her mouth open, and that "the younger guy kept saying he was sorry, so sorry for doing this to me." It's very cleverly worded to make you think she was in the company of two people, but she never actually heard the professor speak. Again though, this could be entirely wrong it's still all speculation at this point, but along with the points snappy put, there's some pretty strong evidence against him being real!

Well, it appears they went with the FightClub ending after all. Would have loved if they had pulled a fast one on us and had Gellar be real but somehow convince Dexter and us that he was dead. But it's the ending everyone has predicted. Don't see the need for spoiler tags as everyone who's been watching has been expecting this. If it wasn't for FightClub and The Usual Suspects, this may actually have been a good ending, but unfortunately it's too predictable now. Loved everyone

getting covered in blood

though :laugh:

Poor Deb, everything keeps getting worse for her.

Well, the sister of Batista is getting involved with that nerd and he's probably not 100% clean..... So that's something they could develop a bit...

Yeah, poor Deb, but I'm getting tired of Quinn....

Only 3 episode left.... Season 6 will be over.

    • OpenAI's new GPT-5.5-Cyber tops Claude Mythos 5 in vulnerability benchmark by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI today announced a major expansion of Daybreak, a cybersecurity initiative designed to help defenders find, validate, and fix software vulnerabilities earlier in the development process. The availability of powerful AI models has definitely changed the cybersecurity landscape by making vulnerability discovery much faster. However, the bigger bottleneck for the industry is now patching those vulnerabilities. Impacted software teams need to validate the discovered issues, understand their impact, develop fixes, test them, and deploy patches. Back in March, OpenAI launched a preview of Codex Security, which uses agentic reasoning with automated validation to discover high-impact issues and actionable fixes specific to the codebase. Since then, it has scanned more than 30 million commits across over 30,000 codebases; more than 70,000 findings were marked as fixed by human reviewers, while over 500,000 findings were automatically determined to be fixed. Now, OpenAI is releasing an updated Codex Security plugin that can run deep scans, review recent code changes, generate security reports, trace attack paths, validate findings, and create codebase-specific patches for human review. It can also triage findings from existing scanners, advisories, bug bounty reports, and ticketing systems. OpenAI says the plugin can export results to vulnerability management systems and integrate with workflows using SARIF files, CodeQL queries, the Codex CLI, and the Codex app. Back in May, OpenAI announced the preview of GPT-5.5-Cyber, a new model built on top of the recently released GPT-5.5, designed for specialized cybersecurity work. Today, OpenAI launched the full version of GPT-5.5-Cyber through a limited release for verified defenders. On CyberGym, GPT-5.5-Cyber scored 85.6%, compared with 81.8% for GPT-5.5 and 83.8% for Claude Mythos 5. It also scored 39.5% on ExploitGym, compared with 25.95% for GPT-5.5, and 69.8% on SEC-bench Pro, compared with 63.1%. OpenAI also announced the new Daybreak Cyber Partner Program, which will allow security vendors and service providers to use GPT-5.5 with Trusted Access for Cyber in their products and services. Accenture, Akamai, Cisco, Cloudflare, CrowdStrike, IBM, Palo Alto Networks, Proofpoint, SentinelOne, Wiz, Zscaler, and others were listed as initial partners for this program. OpenAI is also launching Patch the Planet with Trail of Bits, HackerOne, Calif, researchers, and maintainers. More than 30 open-source projects have committed to participate, including cURL, Go, Python, Sigstore, and pyca/cryptography.
    • AMD confirms 26.6.2 FSR driver breaks on many Windows PCs by Sayan Sen Earlier today AMD released a major graphics driver update as it brings support for FSR 4.1 to Radeon RX 7000 series GPUs. The new update, version 26.6.2, also brings support for Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced and more. And while the driver technically supports Windows 10 version 21H2 and newer, the tech giant has confirmed that there is a major issue with the new driver on non-Windows 11 PCs as it fails to launch properly on such systems. The error message says, "The version of AMD Software that you have launched is not compatible with your currently installed AMD graphics driver." Therefore on the surface it looks like a compatibility problem. AMD has also confirmed that the device manager will display the yellow bang or yellow exclamation sign alongside your GPU under the Display adapters dropdown. Here is what the Radeon team's official advisory recommends to affected users: "Users Running Windows 10 and AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.2 May Encounter Yellow Bang in Device Manager Affecting AMD Radeon RX Series Graphics ... Our Engineers are currently investigating this issue and will provide a fix once it is available. Affected users may revert to AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.1 as a temporary workaround." As such you should revert back to the previous 26.6.1 driver which was released earlier this month. In case you were looking to play Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced and DOOM: The Dark Ages | Revelations you will probably have to wait a while if you want the driver to support those games officially. You can find the support article here on Microsoft's website.
