I think the finale is being underrated by most things I've been reading online.
The whole season was about Dexter being secretly delighted about Harrison sharing his dark passenger. He was almost giddy about it in the penultimate episode, being able to share his whole process with his son. He subconsciously knew it too - hence why Deb kept calling him out for it. But his need for connection with Harrison drove him to ignore her/that part of himself.
Ergo, the conversation with Harrison would have absolutely broken him, and Michael C. Hall did a fantastic job of portraying that. And it was good to see Dexter being called out on his s**t, his justification for his actions. He was never a hero. He was a monster. Only Harrison could help him realise that.
We didn't need a Dexter/Batista reunion. That would have been pure fan service.
They definitely redeemed the original ending. Reckon that's where the Dexter universe needs to end.
