John Humphrey & Andrew Gordon (Cinepals) return for more devilish & dastardly delights as they continue on to Dexter Season 3! Andrew Gordon & John Humphrey return for a deep dive into Dexter Season 3, Episodes 1 & 2 of the acclaimed Showtime crime thriller! Michael C. Hall (Six Feet Under, Gamer) stars as Dexter Morgan, the charming Miami forensic blood spatter analyst who secretly lives as a meticulous serial killer targeting those who deserve it. Season 3 kicks off with Dexter facing unexpected consequences when a planned kill goes wrong, leading him to cross paths with Miguel Prado, played by Jimmy Smits (NYPD Blue, The West Wing), a powerful Assistant District Attorney whose involvement forever alters Dexter’s world. Jennifer Carpenter (The Exorcism of Emily Rose, Limitless) shines as Debra Morgan, still wrestling with her own demons, while David Zayas (Oz, Gotham) plays Detective Angel Batista, C.S. Lee (Chuck, Nora From Queens) returns as Vince Masuka, and Lauren Vélez (New York Undercover, Ugly Betty) portrays Lieutenant Maria LaGuerta. Key moments include Dexter’s shocking accidental kill of an innocent man, the introduction of Miguel Prado as a potential ally (or threat), and the beginnings of one of the series’ most intense and morally complex arcs.

And Drew Shige.
John Nizio.
I'm going to pull up these questions here.
Let's do it.
But let's go on and get the first little impressions you had.
I mean, I'm definitely liking the season so far in the angle they are taking.
First of all, I just like, I always appreciate in seasons of shows when we see the ramifications.
of previous seasons and like what it does to a person or the psychology of a person you know you got first of all with la guerta let's go with her and you know she was so close to dokes and she never believed that he was the bay harbor butcher and you can really see how much she has hardened and how much distance uh you know she has uh taken kind of like from the entire squad even though she's still like interacting with them and stuff but like she almost
feels like an entirely different person,
although in one sense that is the same
as she still feels kind of like a home
wrecker, or it feels
like it's going down that route,
but the performance by the actress is still
there, and there's still a great
deal of charm for the character, but
you can tell she has clearly been
changed from this
horrific event from
someone that she
was very close to, so
I think that is a definitely
compelling angle that they are taking with her
character i really like this other angle that they're i liked in the first 20 or 30 minutes or so that
we were doing with rita and dexter of everything's calm and good right now there's no issues there's
no conflict everything's good with the children we are a nice wholesome family and i even said as a
joke i know there's always got to be some kind of a conflict otherwise what he's going to do a season
about right or have a have the story be about yeah but it's like i would just watch a show with them
just being a domesticated family and like because I'm so invested in the characters at this point
like and with no issues arising I would watch that but of course it's Dexter with that's not what the show's
about but I enjoyed like it was nice having that that 20 or 30 minutes or so of them just being like
happy and and relaxed but uh then like as uh the episode progressed um we saw Rita laid out the news that
she was pregnant, and now
Dexter's really asking himself
the question, like, the life
he leads and how he was raised,
is that,
is it possible for him to be a father?
Well, actually, speaking of that,
we can segue perfectly into our first question.
Hey, let's go.
From Nick C.
We got a handful,
and we do have kind of a shifting schedule,
so we will have to be a little efficient
with these, but we're going to get to everybody.
Nick C for Dexter
Season 3, thank you for chiming in here
Hey John and Andrew
I'm glad you're still enjoying Dexter
and all the twists and turns it provides
I have two questions for you guys
Do you think Dexter has the ability to raise a child
Since he was raised with a code
And not a traditional childhood
And also if you were to be given a donut
By Dexter on his daily routine
What would it be?
Okay, number one
I do think he is
capable of being a father just because of what I've seen from him with Aster and Cody. I think
he truly loves the kids and those kids really do him and also Rita do a great job of humanizing
him. And I think even you can make an argument for Deb and even all his other friends around him
as well. But he really does a great job around them. And there's no reason to think he wouldn't do a
great job as a father i just think it's my only concern is the the life he lives as a this anti-hero
vigilante who again i'm so grateful for the things he does on the garbage he literally takes out
every day yeah i mean this would this is literally a full-time 24 hour seven day a week job right if you
are in assuming him in rita or married or you know living together whatever it is so i guess my
only concern is like Rita would probably have to know the truth. I mean, unless you're just
coming up with Clark Kent, Peter Parker type of excuses. A galore. Yeah, so like that's the only thing.
But in terms of him being a good father, I think he would be a great father. In terms of what kind
of a donut would I expect from him would probably have to be some kind of a donut with like red glaze
over it, like something bloody. Like a big, vivid strawberry donut. Yeah, I'd probably though get the pink
I like the pink donuts. Those taste good. What about you?
Sure, sure. I think, you know, maybe like a maple cruller or something like that,
or even with a classic cake ones or, you know, like a nice, you know, like chocolate, frosted Boston cream, something like that.
You're like Vince. You need the cream filling.
I was going to say, he got that lemon one. That sounded pretty good. And I mean, you know, Angel with the Bearclaw,
definitely a solid choice also. But I got a soft spot for maple.
and I got a soft spot for like Bavarian cream donut.
I'm half Canadian, so I definitely like maple.
Okay, I'm with you.
Oh, Al, you know, I'm just emulating your authenticity.
What about it?
Do you think he'd be a good father?
Yeah, I mean, I think the question mark of like, you know,
am I going to pass anything genetically fiendish down to the child
or am I going to pass any, you know,
they say that intense trauma can root, you know,
deeply and affect your, you know, biochemistry in ways.
i get that concern of his and that sort of uh you know question mark but i think yeah like what we've
learned obviously it'll be different knowing like this kid is mine i participated in making this
kid so is he going to have some kind of subconscious hang up about that we're already experiencing the
subconscious hang up about that um but yeah i feel like everything he's demonstrated with astor
and cody would suggest that you know he would be a good nurturer you know i think he would yeah
have enough he he understands enough about what you know societal morality is to be able to guide
them him properly it the child them whoever uh yeah i think yeah i think he would have the more chops
than he gives himself credit i would just want to know at what age does he take him out for the
first vigilante kill that's right that's the cure that's the thing i'm most curious
hey man if he does demonstrate those signs dexter has more experience than any
Yeah, just teaching the lessons that Harry instilled upon him.
The code of Harry, the code of Dexter.
There you go.
We're on the same page.
Hondo P.
Thank you so much for that question.
Appreciate it.
And those questions and what donut would you guys be leaving in the comments below?
James Rhodes, Dexter.
James Rhodes, I love it.
James Rhodes.
Roadie.
War Machine, here we go.
There we go.
I haven't seen the show in years, so I don't really have a question.
This is more of a keep up the good work.
I love this show.
I hope we get to see the whole run of the series
and love the reaction.
Thank you so much.
Oh, I'm sorry.
It's Jaden Rhodes.
Oh, okay.
I had a dyslexic moment there.
I'm so sorry.
Sorry, Jaden.
I'm sorry.
It's my fault.
I high-fying them too hard
and his eyes were like a wobbly.
There we go.
My bad.
Reverse five.
Thank you, Jaden.
Seriously.
Jane Rhodes.
Really appreciate that comment.
But I mean, you know, if you get to be a war machine,
how man could you be?
really you know you're pretty
I'm sure Jaden would
be cool with being more machine like how could
you not like heaven? I will read
more closely next time
but I appreciate your enthusiasm
this is one of our favorite things here to get
to watch and if you ever do want to ask a question
please do. Our all ears
Brandon here we go
Dexter for John and Andrew thank you for chiming in
I'm loving the reactions
Dexter is one of my favorite shows of all time
even the seasons that aren't great have
things that are good about them and I hope
you guys watch the whole series.
What do you think about the character
Miguel Paredo and the performance of Jimmy
Smith as a character at this time?
I love Jimmy Smith's just in general.
I mean, again, I've seen him in
episode two and episode three of Star Wars as
Senator Bel Organa and
I'm trying to think what else I've seen him in, but
I mean, he's an incredible character actor.
I think he was also in, what was that movie?
with Kim Basinger and Christina Ritchie.
I forgot that horror movie.
I think he was also in that movie.
Anyways, he's a great actor.
Has a lot of presence to him,
and I'm very interested to see
if there's going to be twist with his character,
and I think the whole thing with his...
Oh, there's got to be.
Yeah, I know, I think so far,
but the whole thing is, like,
he's extremely devoted family man.
So far, I mean, yeah, he's very tied to his job,
but, like, family means the most to him.
and you could see how extremely hurt he was by, you know, the untimely demise of his brother
and, like, how he's willing to go to Andy Links for his brother, like, even if he swore an oath to the law,
and he was willing to go outside that, kind of like Dexter, you know, to make sure that, you know,
vengeance was taken care of in regards to that.
So I feel like there are some parallels between him and Dexter in that regard.
So I think he's a very fascinating character, honestly.
And I'm curious as we, you know, expand upon the character and develop the character more.
What else is going to happen?
And I really like a lot of the interactions because it seems like every time there's an intense moment about to happen,
we throttle off a little bit there and like, ah, never mind for a sec.
You know what I mean?
Kind of thing.
So it's like it subverts your expectations in a different kind of.
away.
So I like the character a lot so far.
But again, I'm interested
to see what continues to happen
because again, the show is we've talked
agnizium about several
times, not at hominem.
Yeah, the show that
we've talked about many times that this show
throws a lot of curveballs your way. So I'm
interested to see what
else happens with the character, especially
now that we've really embraced each other
like, you took care of my brother,
the guy who killed my brother.
So where do we go from here now?
You know what I mean?
Kind of thing.
Because I got, I think this is kind of an obvious point.
I'm making, I don't imagine Jimmy Smith's character Prado is going to find out that
Dexter really did take out his brother at some point in this season.
Usually in most shows or movies, the truth usually comes out eventually.
But what do you think so far of him?
Yeah, I'm big nervous about that for sure.
I love watching Jimmy Smith so far.
And, yeah, like part of the fun has become, you know, I'm going to assume that
part of the fun of Dexter is, you know, each season you get a great guest star.
And I am really excited for this particular guest star.
Yeah, because he is just so charismatic.
And he carries the stature of the status of this guy really well.
And, yeah, his, you know, dubious, like, you know, he appears very upstanding.
But as you know, the show is all about, you know, people's double lives or the things below the surface.
And, yeah, we already have the idea that Oscar maybe is not the most up and up of the Prado brothers.
And it makes you wonder what the others are up to because obviously the middle brother, the deputy sheriff or whatever, has his own.
Yeah, Ramon has his own way of doing things.
And then Miguel is certainly in the most visible position, arguably.
But, you know, there's that chicky, whatever the other case.
Chickie Heinz.
Chicky Heinz case where it's like, okay.
How did it happen that you got the wrong guy?
Was that something that you knowingly forced to happen?
Did you guys plant or do something?
Right.
Or you knowingly accepted?
Or is that an honest mistake?
Yeah, what level of reputability do we have here?
He seems clearly at least personally inclined to look into this in a way that is not just simply on the record and, you know, by the book.
So I'm very fascinated.
I'm with you.
At this point.
Curious to see that.
Do they have a whole thing working together that they, the law does not mean, like they, they use the law as a means of, you know, messing with it and, uh, twisting it.
Yeah, they, they, um, kind of, uh, um, they use their power of, uh, their positions of power to, uh, what's the word I'm looking to articulate here.
They use their positions of power to twist the law and do things and do nefarious things.
I'm curious if that's where we go with their characters.
It's interesting to see if that's the curveball we get with the family.
Yeah, absolutely.
It's really fascinating, too, just to imagine Dexter in a position now where, yeah, he's done this and someone's discovered him,
but there's this, like, maybe tenuous sharing of that knowledge because maybe, yeah, Miguel is okay with it, wants this.
And yeah, it seems like it's going to set up a new set of circumstances for Dexter to wrap his brain around while also this stuff happens in his personal life.
So very fascinating.
Reject Nation, I have officially lost over 45 pounds this year.
I am still working on a couple of extra goals for body composition development.
But I'm proud to say I've done it with no injections, no crash diets.
Just pure discipline, consistent training.
And yeah, fuel with fuel.
But when I started back in January, I was like 218 pounds, and now I'm averaging between like 171 to 173.
And one of the things that's helped me genuinely stay on track with having such a busy schedule, especially now that we have this like office away from my home.
I got a fridge right over there that is packed with so much of this.
Hewles Black Edition ready to drink.
Sting's got 35 grams of protein, 27 essential vitamins and minerals, slow release carbs, and it's actually a complete meal in one bottle.
So I'm not just grabbing a snack. I'm really getting some actual fuel of my cells.
Oh man, chocolate and vanilla. They're my two favorites are the main staples. And they aren't
my two favorite ones. No mess, no prep, just grab, drink, and go. Legitimately good taste,
no chalky aftertaste. I'm a strict macro plan and I can fit it into my macro plan.
Low sugar, high protein, super efficient. I'm all about efficiency. And flavor selection is pretty
good. My wife actually really likes the iced coffee and the strawberry banana. And if you can't
decide between all the wonderful flavors, they got a variety box. And if you're anything like
me, variety is a treasure. Best part, each bottle is under five bucks, which is great when you're
replacing a whole meal. So not just keeps your body on track, but your wallet on track too.

Thanks to Heel for sponsoring this video.
Jay Skull, thank you so much
for just a little bit of enthusiasm.
Jay says Jimmy Smith,
for my money, is the star of season three.
He does an amazing job with the character.
Miguel Prado.
Yeah, absolutely.
I think you'll both love
the dynamic between him and Dexter.
I do so far.
Yeah, some really good twists and turns this season.
I cannot wait to discover what those may be.
Emma, hell yeah, Emma.
All right.
Thank you for, as always, it wouldn't be a Dexter.
Yes.
Without a question.
That's why I shouted you out in the intro of the video.
Sure enough.
On to season three.
Glad you guys are loving the show.
Dexter accidentally kills what seems to be an innocent person.
Do you think this will affect his mental state or his effectiveness in his killing?
Is he going to get the yips?
it's certainly affecting his mental state already
and I have to imagine that the toll of that
I mean part of the season I would guess is that
is going to be that we're going to unravel
who Oscar really was and see
the good parts and the bad parts late there
but I think it'll definitely continually affect Dexter as we go
Well it wouldn't be a Dexter season if everything went so smoothly
and perfectly for Dexter right so yeah I could
I mean it's already doing that and we saw that's why he was
starting to investigate he's like i gotta find him more about this guy so i would definitely see uh i
can definitely see it continuously affecting him until he gets to the bottom of like who are all these
prado guys and like what are they about like are they straight shooters is everything good with them
and did i mess up even though it's still in my mind even though even if the prado brothers are
completely like again they don't use their positions of power to uh you know line their own pockets
or do anything like that or they're not nefarious in any kind of way and they truly
are good guys.
I still think even though it was
wrong place, wrong time, and he didn't like
I know it was still outside the coat of
Harry, coat of Dexter, whatever.
It was still self-defense. The guy
hurled a knife at Dexter kind of thing, but I get it.
But it's just a place he should never have been.
Yeah, I do. I got.
There's no way, yeah, he could carry on
normal activity while people are like,
what are you doing there, man? Yeah, totally, totally.
Emma goes on to say,
also, Rita's pregnant. Did you guys
expect Dexter to be having a kid, or
at least this soon.
How do you think Cody and Astor will take this news?
Anyway, I can't wait to see your reaction.
I hope you guys enjoy the season.
Thank you, Emma.
I mean, we should have picked up on that.
They were definitely making enough nooky for us to have taken, I guess, on that.
But I could see Cody being okay with having a little brother or sister.
I, for some reason, not for some reason.
I guess my inclination to say Aster is not going to be taking us because she's already, like, you know,
she's starting to grow up.
a little more now and she's already like starting to have that rebellious type of energy you know from her like you know the way she was acting with the pancakes and stuff like that and it doesn't mean she has a problem towards dexter per se but you know she's just getting in that age where you know again you start acting up a little bit at times so i could see her possibly not loving the idea but then at some point getting around the idea of of embracing and loving the idea of
loving Dexter as a father
and then embracing the idea of
a new brother or sister. But Cody
I see right away coming on board
with this. What about you? I don't know.
Yeah, I mean, the kids, I think you're
probably right. I think, you know, Aster
has probably lived long enough to have more reservations.
Cody is probably
initially just going to be pleased about it
or excited about it or whatever.
Could be surprised either way.
I mean, like introducing a new
you know, presence and source of, you know, adding somebody new who needs love and attention
will always kind of create an opportunity where maybe the kids might notice that not as much
of that is going to them. So, you know, I have, you know, it'll have an effect on them to some
degree or another, but I don't know. I wonder, because they seem to both really like Dexter.
Yeah. And, you know, that's only a means by which we can fortify our family unit in a lot of
respects if he does choose, which I would imagine he would. But yeah, to your, to your greater question,
you know, to the expectation that he would be having a kid, it's not something that I would have
just like pulled out of thin air and said, like, I bet this will happen. But at the same time,
with what we've been through with Dexter and Rita, it does feel like, you know, with the way the show
is prime not to pull any punches or at least not to dawdle in getting too juicy dramatic
developments. This is a juicy dramatic development for Rita and Dexter on the heels of everything
that has happened up till now. It's a little soon, given the grace that Rita has shown him
based off of all the other stuff. So yeah, it's like I buy the conflict from both of them
individually as well as the trepidation for them together. But it also does seem like a beautiful
opportunity for Dexter to grow and to, you know, blossom into this even more twisted
shade of self-actualized joy and happiness. And, yeah, like a live feeling.
So, yeah, I wouldn't have expected it this soon necessarily,
but I expect this show, again, not to, you know, draw things out and getting to places.
So in that sense, I'm not surprised that it's happening right now.
Thank you, Emma.
Thank you so much.
All right, Josh, Dexter Season 3, thank you for chiming in.
Hey, fellas, quick one.
Is there a fictional or real life?
Serial killer or bad guy from one of your favorite shows or movies
that you love to see Dexter face off against?
Personally, I'd love to see him go.
head-to-head with Hannibal Lecter.
Ooh.
How do you think your dream?
I like that one a lot.
Absolutely.
That's damn.
How do you top that one?
I mean, that's the one to go with.
How do you top that one?
Oh, man.
How do you think your dream face off would shake out?
Keep up the awesome work.
I'm loving the reactions.
I actually subscribe to Patreon specifically for these dexter reactions.
Thank you, Josh.
Thank you so much, Josh.
Charles Manson, maybe.
Oh, golly.
Have him go throughout history and just, yeah,
clean up all the traumatic.
serial killers of our
timeline.
Boy.
I mean, for me,
Dexter and Jigsaw
would be super fun
just because that's exactly
up my alley.
I guess maybe since we're
going to go like into that,
maybe Charles Lee Ray
sure that'd be before he
obviously becomes Chuckie Dexter.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Not when he's Chuckie the Dolph before he becomes
because like I've always
thought, I mean, again, I haven't followed
the Chuckie lore
after since after bride i stopped at bride of chucky to be quite on so i don't know the lore after that but
from what i imagine like he was quite the serial killer before he turned into the chucky doll um and
you know with eddie caboodo and all that all that stuff so like i got to imagine that like
there's a lot of writing material in there you could do just in general but also like that would
be fun to see him go up against dexter um i got to imagine dexter would take about pretty easily though
because he's, like, trained in stuff like that, you know, from, what is it, Jiu-Jitsu or whatever he, Dexter learned?
Yeah.
I think a really tough challenge for Dexter, though, would be, like, Michael Myers, that'd be really, really tough.
Yeah, because what could you teach him?
How did you do the Dexter thing?
You know, yeah, that's why.
I mean, that's, like, a syringe or something like, that's, Michael Myers.
I don't know if that would work, right?
Yeah.
I mean, A, yeah.
How would he actually subdue him and B?
know, would there be the satisfaction
of him showing him all the victims
if he's not going to even care about it?
You are purely evil.
You're evil, Michael.
He's got into the Don Pleasant's voice to him.
That's right. And I'll understand him.
Yeah, there might be
other, I mean, the guy from seven
could be a cool one. Never seen it.
You know, the Kevin Spacey character,
John Doe, I think he's just called John Doe in that.
That would be cool, but just the idea of like
an aurivorous of like John Kramer and Dexter
and just like trying to prove to each other
that they have the upper hand morally speaking,
I think would be very funny.
Plus all the cool kills and stuff.
That's where I land on that.
But thank you so much.
I want to see him going against every ghost face.
Every single one, line them all up in one room.
That wouldn't be a bad idea.
Leave yours down below.
I like that question.
That's a fun one.
All right.
All right.
One more.
From Jay Rushden.
If Dexter.
What up, Jay.
Jay, thank you for being.
another consistent voice in these.
If Dexter was an animal
in Zootopia, what animal would Dexter be?
My answer is a goat
so the murder weapon could be eaten.
That's a pretty solid
choice right there.
I could see him being a cheetah
or a lion just because
he's got those claws and then
that way he could dig into his victims.
He's like a fox or a wolf to me
I guess because he's cunning, you know.
Yeah, I could see that too.
But maybe a cheetah because they
run so fast so he could catch up to his victims, too.
That's true. It's true.
I think, I don't know how fat.
What would Cheetahs run like 35, 40?
Cheetahs are very fast. The one fastest animals.
Yes. I get, I'll go with Cheetah. I think that's, I'll just go with my initial
gesture cheetah. All right. Yeah, I mean, I don't know. What other types of Zootopia
animals are there? Oh, I, I, I don't think I've seen Zootopia, so I don't know the
animals in that. Well, dang it, Andrew, you need a catch up. Leave us your Zootopes down below.
any stray thoughts before we
buggy on the next one? I like the direction
so far with the characters, the storyline.
I really like Jimmy Smith so far.
I'm, again, intrigued to see
what curves we get,
what sliders, what sinkers, what
forkballs we get in my baseball
references. With the characters, like
again, are they
nefarious characters, that entire family
or are they straight shooters? Are we going
to get another homewrecking situation
between La Gorta and him,
especially given they have a pass? And with
what she did with Pascal's fiancé last season.
Because I have seen some comments that did not give away any spoilers,
just that LaGuarda is a piece of schnit.
So, but I like her.
There's times where I really like her.
I really like watching her.
I have a lot of sympathy for her.
Yeah, yeah, for sure, for sure.
And I like the actress.
Yeah.
And I like the actress a lot.
So, you know, I'm interested to see where that goes for sure.
sure and again also being in such of a vulnerable and not justifying it but being in such a
vulnerable place with what happened to dokes and everyone is completely on the opposite fence of you
you were literally isolated and also when i say distance earlier from everyone like f1 one is on
the opposite side and how you feel about someone you cared about so much and who everyone else
considered a friend it's like might put you in a place where you do this terrible thing possibly
with jimmy smits's character knowing he is married i don't know curious if we do go that
route. I don't have the heart to even think about it. Yeah. Yeah, this has been very fun as a start to a new season. Yeah, it's great. I'm really liking it. It jumped right. Yeah, it went right back to like, damn, Dexter's doing his thing. He's life is good. He's got Rita and the kids and they're, you know, blossoming in their newly forged relationship. And he's back out here doing his Dexter thing. And then, yeah, one little set of circumstances goes wrong. And now we're into this and, you know, thicket of new and uncomfortable circumstances.
circumstances. And while season two is especially wild in terms of just what they gave him to dance with, this certainly seems like a new, very fascinatingly messy situation. And I think that's a cool, you know, I was wondering, because season one and two feels so much like a piece together, like a completed kind of saga together. It's like, what are we going to do this season? How are we going to kind of change it up? I would imagine. And yeah, this is like, it's so kind of breathless in getting you into things that when, you know, the actual oh shit moment descends.
and, you know, Oscar is killed and all this, you know, is set in motion.
Yeah, I am fascinated now to know where this is going to twist and turn to over the next several episodes.
And I would say, too, last thing, because I know we got to get out of it.
I would say, too, a big theme I feel like that's a brewing so far is betrayal,
especially with the relationship between Jimmy Smith's character and with Dexter
because you feel like, you know, he invited him to his brother's wake.
And then they're, you know, forming this camaraderie.
his friendship, it seems like.
He invited him over.
Off record.
He brought him over to his house to meet his wife and have his, you know,
Rida come over and, like, embracing him, did you kill my brother's killer?
And then you're the one who did it?
It's like, the betrayal.
Yeah.
It's like, so I feel like that's a big theme that's starting to brew up in the season.
So, again, truly going to be curious to see how that unfolds throughout the season
because I'm loving all the interactions between.
Jimmy Smith's and with Dexter
The interactions can be very charming
They can feel very brother-esque
And also intense and suspenseful at the same time
So I like that nuance and that balance at the same point
So it's going to be fascinated to watch as it unfolds
He carries himself with the very convincing integrity
And it keeps you on your toes as to yeah
Whether he's seeing through Dexter in a bad way
Or a good way
And what either of those contexts even means
Yeah. Does he see the truth and he's okay with the truth or does he not quite see the truth but suspects it? Either way, I'm really excited to see where this goes and to continue unraveling the mystery. This is such a joy. Thank you guys for joining us and we'll catch you for episodes three and four next week. Till then, be well and stay out of trouble. See you.
