Remember that moment in Season 1 where Dexter is in the car with Rita… and is making moves on her for the very first time… while describing the ITK's crime scene to her? 

I actually think there were some fantastic moments in Season 5.  Not that many.  But one in particular, where you see Dexter pursue Julia Stiles (and you see it from HER POV, so he's the implacable abductor dragging her back to the shed he's been keeping her in), was just incredible.

It had BETTER be better than seeing Sylar morph in and out of his mother when he had HIS argument with a dead person.
