True, but how many episodes has the captain/newly assistant chief been in? He's seen in two roles at this point in the series: as a direct relationship to Dexter's dad (old school cop), and as an @$$hole that acts as a foil to LaGuerta, Deb, and on the rare occasion Dexter. I don't see him as the type to solicit escorts, and second of all, what would be more dramatic/entertaining for viewers of this show: The captain/deputy chief being exposed or Quinn on an alcoholic binge getting caught up in a possible murder rap?

Quinn didn't show up to the crime scene coincidentally and LaGuerta unexpectedly arrived at the scene, yet she hasn't been at the scene of any of the more high profile scenes in this season. Quinn not being at this crime scene makes me suspect it's him that is involved, but I'm not sure yet why LaGuerta would be protecting him at this point.



These are just my thoughts on the situation at hand. I'm not trying to start an argument over it, but yet the debate has been entertaining today. Jason and Mickey, I'd love to see what you think about the points I made above. Best discussion and insight we've had about this season so far, second to Drew's insight about the DDK being only one person, rather than two.
