"I thought the ending was great", Zayas said.
Last Sunday, cast members of the original Dexter series including James Remar, David Zayas, C.S. Lee, and Erik King gave a panel at Steel City Con. The 40-minute panel also included various Dexter-related questions from the fans, and one of them made David Zayas feel a little bit uncomfortable. When asked if he was willing to talk about his thoughts on Dexter dying before Batista was able to meet him after almost a decade, he defended the writers' decision:

"Good question. When I appeared in New Blood... be honest, everybody thought that I was gonna go and confront him, correct? So the opposite happened, and I feel like everybody gets criticized, the writers get criticized, but it's the smart thing to do, to create a circumstance that people are expecting, and then take it to a different place. I thought the ending was great."
Then an audience member responded that it wasn't, which made David sarcastically respond that "we could do over". Watch that part of the Q&A below, starting at 20:23.
