Couldn't Dexter just say he's got absolutely no idea who Arthur Mitchell is? Make out he's a crackpot or something?
arthur's family have all met him, though

They don't know anything about him though, they think he's a single unemployed man called Kyle Butler, he's a married man called Dexter with 3 kids who works for the police. I don't see what benefit Arthur could get from exposing Dexter anyway, in order for it to harm Dexter in any way, he'd have to have already been exposed as at the very least trying to kill that kid, and even then, there's no way for him to prove Dexter actually knew him (Dexter could claim his family are in on it) and the only offence Dexter has committed (blackmail) could not be proven.
Arrghhhh can't read anything in this thread till later catching up on the last 2 episodes tonight. Also what the hell happened to using spoilers.
Explained in these two posts

sorry if we've fecked anything up for you, I've linked to the individual posts rather than their place in the thread so you don't read anything else by mistake.
HOLY SHIT! One of the most shocking endings to a season I've seen, but that's why we love the show. Next season will be awesome, and I think we'll see the show take a darker new turn after the events that occurred in the finale.
OOOOHHHH!!! Can't watch it till tonight.
feck me that was a shocker!
I suspect Trinity will have made sure Dexter is framed for that as well.
Anyone want to hear a crazy, yet actually quite plausible theory on the ending and leading into next season? A guy posted it on another forum. This does NOT contain spoilers, it's pure theory.
I think it's the police Chief, the guy that wanted to fire LaGeurta and Angel.
Something about him doesn't seem right, he also had one of those "tv faces" after Deb left him that implies he knows a lot more about Dexter than previously thought.
Personally speaking, it was he, along with Harry, that decided Miami is overrun with scum and normal police work cannot sort out the mess.
So when they found Dexter they decided that they'd mould him into a serial killer that targets the city's vile muderers.
So dex grows up and everything works great. However the police chief(what's his name again) has noticed that dexter's admirable work has gotten sloppy of late. The reason? Rita.
So he kills her. Maybe not him personally but one of his minions. He kills her in the manner of the Trinity so as to have Rita's murder open and shut.
Now Dexter can return to be the efficent killer he once was.
But that's not all. He knows Dexter won't be around forever. So he leaves Harrison in exactly the same bloody situation as young Dex. It would have been impossible for Arthur Mitchell to know the circumstances of Dex's mother's death.
The reason? So Harrison can fit snugly into Dex's shoes when the time is right.
Noway
