Batista & LaGuerta's Amazing Chemistry Finally Returns In Dexter: Original Sin

They got married in the original series but divorced in season 6

The chemistry between LaGuerta and Batista in the Dexter original series was one of the best parts of the middle seasons. While their chemistry and scenes together were a great part of the original show, it obviously had to stop once they divorced in season 6 before LaGuerta died in the season 7 finale. Seeing Batista and LaGuerta in the early formative stages of their eventual relationship is another great aspect of Dexter's lore that Original Sin brings to life.

While both Batista and LaGuerta have a reduced role in Dexter: Original Sin than they had in the original series, their inclusion is still a key part of the prequel. There is also speculation that Laguerta will start to develop feelings for Dexter based on how notably flirtatious she was with him throughout the first season. While that will almost certainly not happen in Original Sin since Dexter is basically the new intern at Miami Metro PD, sparks could continue to fly between Batista and LaGuerta in the later episodes of Original Sin.

Batista & LaGuerta's Dexter: Original Sin Story Is Still Difficult To Enjoy After The Original Series

She didn't deserve the fate she got in the season 7 finale

Knowing that, although they eventually get married, Batista and Laguerta get divorced, adds a tragic element to their origin story as it unfolds in Original Sin. Most tragic of all is LaGuerta's fate, getting killed by Deb to save Dexter after everything they had all been through. If anything, Dexter: Original Sin reaffirms that LaGuerta was never a real villain and was one of the biggest examples of Dexter breaking Harry's code (even though he didn't kill her and his main focus was not to get caught). Additionally, LaGuerta is one of the best characters in Dexter: Original Sin and is perfectly cast.
