As for Rita, that's the entire point of the last episode. Rita's death DID fit the pattern of Trinity. It always started with a young boy, then progressed to a woman in the bathtub. Just because the final boy survived (thanks to Dexter), doesn't mean Trinity would stop. The questions will come when Trinity no longer completes the pattern.
I think next season it's going to be about Dexter the widowed father. With Rita out of the picture, his ability to plan his murders flies out the window. Which leads me to believe he'll quickly find another love interest, much to the step-children's disdain. It'll probably be a reckless choice (see season two), and that will make up the majority of the season. I also think Dexter will rely on Harry more than ever. Dexter will ask Harry many times for parenting skils that will prevent Harrison becoming another Dexter.
That's my prediction.

Rita didn't fit the pattern. The girl in the bathtub was always young, not a middle-aged mother like Rita. He goaded middle-aged mothers with two kids to jump off buildings. Rita was the mother of 3. Doesn't fit the pattern. He just killed her to screw with Dexter.
