miss you already

Why do you think Deb needed to die at the end of the series? You've been adamant about that for a long time.

When I've been saying that in the press, it's been for selfish reasons. Your readers deserve an element of truth when you're talking about something that they care enough to read about. I wanted them to see the truth; I did want her to die. But it was more about me. Deb deserves some peace. There was this setup when she and Quinn (Desmond Harrington) were finally able to set their sights on a love that existed, but I don't know what kind of peace she would have found there because Dexter always would have been in that place. She always would have been making sure she was piling enough dirt on the secrets that existed with Dexter. I'm not sure a happy ending was possible for her. This was her happy ending.
