In what way did Jackie "put Dexter in his place" I must have missed that part.
All I saw was a bitter middle aged woman rant about not caring who nominates who and for what reason, but look at her body language and the fact that when she talks shes showing a teeth (more and more) , they are clear signs of anger and the fact that she does care.
Shes a sinking ship and for her daughter's sake she should leave.
