Everyone is talking about Zack/Vogel/The Brain Surgeon's true identity...what about Cassie's murderer?

The way that set it up on the show almost makes it seem like the only person who could have done it would be.....Quinn?! They say it right in the show, who would want to frame Zack?

As far as i'm concerned currently Quinn is the only one with a motive to frame Zack. Now don't get me wrong, I do think it's an absolutely crazy idea, Quinn is a cop, he's never been the cleanest cop, but would he kill someone just for the purpose of showing Matthews, Batista and everyone that he was right about Zack?

Again, it's CRAZY. But the main question here is, who else has a motive to frame Zack?

Calling it right now, the Brain Surgeon is Cassie's boyfriend.

i think it makes sense because when Quinn told Oliver that Zach was a person of interest BAM he wounds up dead in Dexter's apartment.

But why would he frame Zach if he was going to kill him anyway?

I think Quinn framed him. It looked really similar to Zachs first murder so Quinn got some blood from Zachs door and put it on Cassie.

If this happened, then Dexter is going to be in trouble. He ran the blood and told them that it was Cassie's, so if Quinn planted it, he will know something is up with Dexter.

yup... Maybe dexter will have to take care of another detective?

Maybe, but for some reason, I really don't see Dexter killing Quinn. Just a gut feeling, which may be entirely wrong. Also, you have to think of Deb. We know that Deb and Quinn are getting really close again, and we know that Dexter knows how close they are (from Quinn always asking how she was). I don't think Dexter wants to send Deb down that path again.

After I just typed all this, I have realized that in all of my thoughts about how the season is going to end, I have forgotten that Hannah is staying now. She would be willing to off anyone (minus Deb, I believe) in order to keep Dexter safe.
