Deb should have lived and been the hero for catching Saxon. Dexter always got rid of the serial killers that the police were pursuing so it would have been refreshing for Metro PD to actually catch one alive for a change. Deb becomes the hero and probably become Lieutenant again, and Dexter meets up with Hannah and Harrison in Argentina as he is in awe to finally be feeling human emotions. The beauty of this show was that he never got caught and that's how it should have ended. It should have been a happily ever after leaving everyone oblivious to Dexter's true self. Another alternative ending would have been that Quinn always knew he was a serial killer since Dexter killed his private investigator Linney, but never did anything about it because he knows Dexter is too smart to get caught. Also it would have been a huge conflict for him as he was in love with Deb. There should have been a nice twist ending where Quin proved that Dexter was a serial killer but never ratted him out because Dexter only killed the bad ones and Quin saw too many bad guys get away and loved that Dexter took him out. Quin should have helped Dexter get to Argentina and the show ends with Dexter reunited with Hanna and Harrison while at the same time Quinn and Deb end up together as they both know Dexter's secret and the rest of the cast will remain oblivious to it all. That's how they should have ended the series.
