  • This song totally fits Dexter's character and how he managed to conceal his secret identity from Rita. R.I.P. Rita!

  • I want Rita back.

  • soo beautiful such an amazing couple <3 <3 <3

  • i miss rita 

  • : ( I hate that Rita died, she was perfect on the show, I agree that it was stupid to end that it would have been more interesting to watch them grow their family together while he struggled to grow with his family and his dark side...what a shame. They made a perfect couple on the show.

  • I can't believe the writers managed to create the perfect nagging wife. My skin used to crawl everytime she accused dexter for not being there for the family. Thank god they wrote her off the show her nagging was getting out fo control. nag nag nag!

  • I agree with what everyone is saying; the Lumen arc was go-nowhere and she had nothing on Rita, but I can see her purpose. It wasn't about Lumen. It was about Dexter getting better. Obviously, Rita's death was hard and he didn't know how to handle it. Usually when he can't handle a social situation, it's because of his dark qualities, but this time was different. He was finally having a human reaction to loss. He needed help and that's what Lumen's purpose was. She was his "transitional" woman.

  • gREAT FUCKING VIDEO ENOUGH SAID!~

  • The show and the character of Dexter is just not the same without Rita. She was always (or from mid season 2 on anyway..) been sort of the light in Dexters dark world and who do we get instead? A useless overacting rape victim played by Julia Stiles who leaves as quick as she was introduced, which renders her character and most of Season 5 entirely pointless. How nice... God i miss Julie Benz. :(

  • @WelcomeGhostsIV When they first killed off Rita, they said that it would open up new doors for interesting story telling for Dexter. So I was hoping that something really fresh and new would come out of Rita's death. And season 5 was all about the quest for Dexter to find a connection with someone. . .Just like in Season 1,2, and 3.

    Don't get me wrong, I loved season 5. . .I just didn't see the point of Rita's death.

  • @Mikaylee I really did not like Season 5 at all, looking back at it. Dexter was basically back to Ground Zero at the end. Square One. With Lumen leaving, that whole build up to their killer relationship (pardon the pun) was completely wasted! And for what? For Dexter to become more human? At least make it seem natural instead of so forced. Besides we already saw what happened in Season 3 when Dexter wanted a killer friend/sidekick. Why do a similar story-line again?

  • @Mikaylee The season wasn't even really about Dexter or Rita's death like the people behind the show let on. No it turned into "The Lumen Show". I just did not care about her story arc at all.

    You know what i wanted from Season 5? "Dexter: On The Run": Rita's murder was pinned on Dexter, now he has to escape from Miami while being chased by the police force, FBI, his own sister, etc. THAT could've been a cool (final?) season and basis for lots of new locals, stories and interactions for Dexter.

  • @Mikaylee It was jst to show that Trinity somehow got his revenge on Dexter by killing Rita!!! x( ;(

  • @Mikaylee maybe in season 6 they write that season 4 finale and season 5 was just a dream of dexter XD.

  • @tiburcio9999 Ha! Like in the show Dallas.

    "And that is Dallas."

  • @WelcomeGhostsIV - i loved season 5 - it was an interesting direction for the Dexter character. And it was also an interesting comment on the catharsis of revenge - something that isn't really appreciated in modern societies. But I agree that they shouldn't have killed off Rita. It did open up new stories, but I couldn't help but feel that the two identities of Dexter, as played out in his relationship with Rita, was a very important ingredient of the show. Not sure where they'll go now.

  • what episode is at 3:45 when they are in that car? and the scene before that when Dexter looks really sad and wears a blue blouse?

  • @tessaxr The car scene is from the very first episode of season 1. And the sad blue blouse scene is from the very last episode of season 1.

  • as much as i hate the fact that they killed rita off, i think it made the most sense. no one else's death would have had such an impact on dexter. they needed to kill off the one thing that represented goodness and love in his life. it made for an interesting story line and showed that without rita, he can still be a person. he has harrison and i think he sort of replaced rita in dexter's life.

  • Perfect song for the perfect couple.

  • I find referencies to dexter in just every song. The show is just the best and i totaly cried when she died both in the last episode of S4 and in the first of S5.

  • @Gregoses omg i bawled in the first episode of season 5 when he killed the guy in the bathroom and lost it and then when he realized he loved Rita...

  • I want to meet a woman like Rita, she's perfect

  • This video is amazing, the song is perfect. </3

  • watching this breaks my heart.. Gosh.. i never realize there is so many beautiful moments Dex have with RIta.. she's perfect for him! I miss Rita so much

  • RItaaaaaaaaaaaa why did you have to go awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay my life hasnt been the saaaahiyaaaaaaaaaaaaame without youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu­uuuuuuuuuuuuu

  • That was actually excellent. I normally don't watch such self edited clips. But you did good with the editing n music/song theme build-up.

  • soo he kills only bad people?

  • wow, great video! :) tho' i don't know why, but rita annoyed me a bit...

  • whats music?

  • P.S. You did an amazing job on this, truly.

  • Aw, this makes me so sad!

  • This is lovely <33 I do love this pairing so much, and was so completely devastated with the end of season 4.

  • I loved Dexter and Rita. I will miss her :(

  • Please, what is the name and the number of the episode at 3:02 and 3:20 =)

    thanks a lot!

  • so beautiful!

    why it had to be like that??!! ='(

  • julie looked waaaaaay better before her surgeries

  • Beautiful. LUVZ A LOT

  • dexter was still a step ahead of the trinity

  • I think that it is the same episode at 2:50

  • please please what episode is at exactly 2:22 pleeeease !!!

  • @YepaNokomis It's the first episode of season 2

  • @YepaNokomis

    depends on which 2:22 you're talking about? The stabbing or being on the phone?

  • R.I.P Rita <3

  • R.I.P Rita

  • someone should do a Dexter video of every day is exactly the same by NIN

  • it makes me cry! :S I think she was the reason for Dexter to go on... they share a very big love.

  • i liiked rita the character but she was too fucking bitchy it seemed like in season4

  • what episode is at 2:53?

    btw really good job

  • @manca6 idk the exact number or title but at around 2:53 its the episode where dexter goes to see that shrink emmit meridian

  • meeting Rita was the best thing that happened to him, very sad season 4 ending :(

  • killing Rita was a huge mistake 4 sure.

  • I'd be more than happy to kiss Dexter's sexy lips!

  • and the one in 2:10?

  • nice video, hey from wich season and episode are the clips in 1:47 and then in 1:50

  • I think that killing Rita was a h uge mistake. I hope that they aren't going to shuffle the kids off the show, too.

  • @Progo35 I respect your opinion but I think that ending will be a good starting point for Dexter to feel a profound catharsis or to lose all his remaining humanity; both of them very interesting paths.

  • thx god trinity killed her silly ass, couldnt stand here anymore

  • Maybe there will be flashbacks in S05, Rita had to leave for Boondock Saints 2 LOL! She was awesome in that 2~!

    Its not dude, Its Double J to you!~

  • I almost cired when they showed rita dead most mind blowing season final ever. RIP Rita you will be missed

  • It's a good video.. Hell I feel better... There needs to be a Rita Foundation. ;)

  • oh, rita :'(

    you were always such an angel!

  • What was 2:50 from?

  • @yamahadrummergirl Its from the first season EP 4 i it's when RIta gose down on dexter for the first time

  • oooh, sorry i meant "rita", not "dexter"

  • i don't think trinity killed dexter. I think it was a new enemy that will be introduced in season 5, probably someone from his past. Can't wait for september

  • terrible endind !! i love rita was the perfect women for dexter !!!

  • @yucamandioca

    naww she needed to die...she was stifling dex's activities too much and she was becomin a bit stale. dont get me wrong, i enjoyed every last episode with rita in it, and i will miss her, but the writers got it right. it just adds that much more depth to the show overall.

  • @yucamandioca yea i can't believe she's gone, she was so innocent and probably one of the hardest type of women to cross by :( ending verdict, life is inevitable; so no matter what, bad things still happen to good people... I <3'd her acting, I wonder if that was a part of her when she was actually suppose to "act". 3:32 wow just I can't believe that scene, its more then just words... :(

  • D: I miss her already. Season 5 is gonna be really sad.

  • SHE IS A TOP MILF !!!

  • No way in hell did Rita deserve to die. She was a mother of 3 young children. She had been abused physically and mentally almost her whole life and how does her life ended after surviving such turmoil? the same way!

  • @kirstenrox234 Well :( Rita Died i am sad two

  • "Too"

  • Great video:)

  • Paul's parents introduced as an easy out for Cody and Aster to leave Dexter's care

  • I, am still shocked !! And think it was a wrong thing to do I think they just fucked season 5. I cant see how dexter going be a single farther. I can pinned everything else .

  • what episode is 2:01 from?

  • 2:01 is from Season 3 Episode 3 Tiltle "The Lion Sleeps Tonight"

    The episode is about Nathan Marten is a pedophile targeting Astor on that beach.

  • Try this on for size--It appears that Dexter arrives home, simple enough and then goes through the phone thing and then heads for the bathroom. It appears to me that the scene then looks like a DREAM like when the father talks with Dex. She isn't killed. Trinnity had a VERY narrow and lucky window of opportunity to find her home. How he had the time is ASSUMED but not clear. Good writers can do such things.

  • @MrSeniordude

    You are just in denial, she's dead.

  • i hope she is alive i cried wen she died

  • I'll really miss Rita, you know. She's the definition of normality in Dexter's life. Season 5 will be a darker than usual affair. And that's really sad. Dexter is a dark series, but Rita gave the series its lighter moments, for sure. Dexter doesn't deserve this. I'm just sad...

  • fucking writers

  • I LOVED Rita! Omg, I don't know how people can be happy she's dead. She was an awesome character. Her and Dexter were perfect for eachother. And she had such a hard life until Dexter, and then she died such a horrible death. D: She didn't deserve that.

  • I was sad this past season when she died, she just kept getting hotter and hotter every season lol. hope they bring her back.

  • they cant bring her back, her character is dead.

  • lol i meant as in a ghost or something.

  • The can bring her back as a reanimated (zombie) Then she can infect others in miami and then Dexter and Morgan have 2 take 2 the streets with chainsaws and shotguns and ride Miami of the flesh eating zombies led by their undead queen Rita!

  • rofl

  • @granpapi29 ??? 0_0 uhhh that will be werid not saying thats gay its just werid i am sorry :(

  • LOL and the irony of the zombie outbreak led by Rita would be that some of Dexter's victims will be reanimated and seeking him for revenge, and Dexter has to 'kill them' again, lke Miguel Prada and The Skinner and his Brother Brian the ice truck killer since their bodies didn't get scattered around the ocean like the others.

  • or as a passenger.....nah, forget it

  • what were u going 2 say about a passanger?

  • that she will appear in Dexter´s head like Harry

  • Good job !

    I just love this video.

    and i'm not agree with the final season. Fuck trinity !

  • i love that line "your a beautiful fucked up person" cuz it sums up Dexter perfectly! haha :)

  • only good moment is when she blows dexter in season 1

  • I had a love hate relationship with Rita, I'd like her one episode then not be too keen the next. I clued in when she didn't call nagging about where he was. I feel really bad about what happened but I'm curious if they will do the mind thing like Harry and what will happen with the kids-- how Harrison will be affected.

    Soooo sad :( it makes me like this video even more. I've watched it a few times in the past, now its all nostalgic.

  • Incredible video. I liked Rita, and felt she was the glue holding Dexter together. Say what you want about him, but he was an excellent father and husband. Rita, I'll miss you most of all.

    I think Rita will appear to him in his mind, similar to how Harry does.

  • So shocked because no one saw it really coming. We all knew Dexter would finally get Arthur because at the end of every season finale he killed his enemy of the season. But we didn't see the enemy of Dexter killing or hurting Dexter's family.I'll miss Rita. She was a huge part of the show. Now Dexter's lifestyle and personality will completely change. he will have to raise 3 young kids on his own, 2 of which aren't even biologically his. He'll to complete transition his life, less side-tracking.

  • man i'm still in shock. rita had really grown on me this season. i feel bad for saying i wish he would just kill her in previous seasons. :(

  • rita is a great milf !

  • I am still so sad about the ending of Dexter. I know it's only on tv but I've never been so upset over a television show! The first shot of this video of Rita is sad :[ It will be sad to go back and watch past episodes now. Too bad Rita didn't kill Arthur instead. The creepiest part of the ending was what was left to the imagination- the Trinity character seriously creeped me out!

  • WOW great video and I am going miss rita this video gave me tears crazy

  • @konvictmuzik34 wow thank you! incidentally, not long after I made this video, I made a "trailer" of what would happen if Dexter became a seriel killer because Rita was brutally murdered. But I never posted it because the editing sucked. I guessed I jinxed it. Sorry guys.

  • Aww why did Rita have to go ? ): This is sooo sad. But that was an amazing season finale. I was completely shocked.

  • Awesome! Farwell Rita

  • Damn... F***ing Arthur...

  • man this is just depressing watching this now. still an amazing video though =)

  • This video is too hard to watch after watching The season 4 finale

  • @mrxxbrian Man, my heart just got ripped out. But I thought it might happen.

  • Yea i knew it would happen too, because the last moment when they are talking and kissing and then making out, it made it soooooo obvious. and the fact that so many people complain about rita and her acting, i knew the writers would eventually write her out

  • very well put together. very nice:)

  • its a mystery how these 2 ever got together.

  • Very well done. A little too "on the nose" in some spots, but it is so well done, we forgive you. Very good work.

  • What does "on the nose"  mean? :P

  • @Drusillah It means to be exact.

  • GREAT! You really know how to sync the clips to the lyrics in the song, that's one thing I look for when watching fan made videos. Thanks! Dexter x Rita <3

  • great job.

  • Ohh myyy, just beautiful! So many briliant moments matched so perfectly with the lyrics. Kudos!

  • Gave me goosebumps. FUCKIN AMAZING!

  • god she is gorgeous

  • Yeah she is. Although if Dexter and Rita had real life counterparts I'm sure they'd be much less attractive. haha

  • I understand why Dexter killed Lila, because she tried to kill Rita's kids he's said so in the very first episode. He could never harm a child.

  • Lila was, in a way, a better match for Dex. Unfortunately she was so unstable that she would have eventually gotten him caught. Rita, on the other hand, in the first 2 seasons was very good for him but it seems, in season 3, that she has very little respect or consideration for him or his job. She's not working this season so why doesn't she stay up with the baby then sleep while the kids are at school?

  • sorry...I meant she was good for him seasons 1-3....and not respecting him in season 4....wow season 4 already.......love this series.

  • i have just started watching the series on tv..i have watche the first 2 episodes ;P

  • Wanted to do a Dexter/Rita vid myself for sometime ... you did an amazing job at it ... now I'm not sure i even wanna try ... ya big meanie poopy face head ... lol ... nah, seriousley, very nice video.

  • Love the video.

  • I love the part where Dexter gives Astor a little dance. Still, I know where MCH learned to dance like that,, but were did Dexter?

  • i think that dexter needed lila in a way. i think he is more human than he would ever admit. he loves rita, even if he would ever admit it. kinda sick, how we actually are defending the guy. oh well.

  • i agree. lila kinda unleashed the inner sexual beast within dexter, but all the same, rita seemed to be the one stable thing that dexter had in his life.

    oh yeah its kinda bad we're all 'wow dexter is amazing' its a brilliant show.

  • why do you like sex??

  • Its actually surprising how many people hate Lila, considering she is part of that exclusive club of people who really know who Dexter is. She got closer to Dexter than Rita probably ever will.

  • She also tried to murder Rita's children, that's pretty unforgivable. She was also way too nonchalant about Dexter being a murderer. She may have known Dexter killer, which Rita didn't, but Rita knew Dexter the person better than Lila.

  • Dont see at roles, see the actors, lila is very good actor, and i like her. And Rita? She is fine, of course.

    Its ridiculous, what people write there...about lila...

  • why dexter killing people?

    isn't he a police officer??

    i mean work under police officer!!

  • the definition of irony

  • Why don't you try watching the show from the first series, then your questions will be answered.

  • Rita reminds me of one of the characters in a Japanese video game when she first opens the door at the start of this video; Princess Zelda to be exact. That perfect smile and the little blink while holding the smile. She has such a classic beauty about her. Oh by the way excellent synchronization between video footage and song lyrics. 5 STARS

  • i love rita and dexter. i wish my girlfriend was like rita.

    lila was such a skanky bitch...she framed angel and runined dexter's life

  • rita is so cute and beautiful. i hate lila, shes like a bitch -.-

  • I hate Lila too. She was a raunchy psychotic whore who spent half a season just trying to get in Dexter's pants.

    Also I feel its so way below Dexter to have an affair. He should have been able to exercise more self control being Dexter. If you can keep from killing just anyone you want when you're a serial killer, you should certainly be able to keep your dick in your pants.

    Kind of disappointed me that the writers even had Lila in season 2. But then again the idiotic masses needed that.

  • Perfect song choice -- hard to find music that suits such a unique relationship

  • I love Rita (JB). Such a change from Darla (who I wanted to stake myself lol).

    Great video!

  • darla?? u mean lila

  • Comment removed

  • Julie Benz played Darla on Buffy the Vampire Slayer.

  • oh ok i didn't watch buffy...sorry

  • fkin awesome

  • AWESOME!

    Great show!

    Excellent song choice!

    Terrific use of images!

    THANKS!

  • You don't know who is singing the last song in S01E03? ;p

  • who sings?

  • Sarah McLachlan - "Building A Mystery"

  • her character is the perfect woman......gorgeous, sweet, soft-spoken.

  • isnt she awesome ?

  • great work!

  • I can't
