I’m just not a fan of how much the show has been about him, tbh. His crime background has been the most boring part of the show to me and to make even this about him too? Of course it was terrible of Dex (and Liz) but to center this on him, for the writers to write this just to focus even more on him and what a good guy he is? I’m fine with this being about what a self-destructive person Dex is, because she is the actual lead of the show. What I mean is, she did a bad thing, but it should be about her hurting him and not him being hurt, if you get what I mean. Why’d she do it? If they say she did it to destroy Grey and Liz’s relationship because of her feelings for Grey, it’s just so…predictable.
Because frankly I do want to see more about her and women and not like this where it’s about a guy.
If it even happened. It was obviously my first assumption, but thinking on it, and rewatching the preview, where they never actually confirm it, I wonder if they’ll back away from it. Would be such a cop-out, I’d love to see them toss this huge spanner into the middle of the established dynamics. It’s horrible to the characters that it happened, but it’s interesting TV. Even more so if Liz was a regular.
