The show itself has made continuity errors, whether it be visually shown or verbally displayed. When Laura Moser was murdered in 1973 he was said to be 3 years old. One could assume that his birth year may have been 1970 or 1971 (if say he was born in January and since Laura was killed in October, they somewhat rounded it off to 3 years old). His graduation year is said to be 1991...that would make him 20 to 21 years old which completely does not fit his character (being as intelligent as he is). I personally graduated at 18, so him graduating at 20 or even 21 does not make sense.

I have a feeling that the writers for this season left out important details when they wanted to include a high school reunion this year...they SHOULD have included it say back in Season Two, that would have been a better 20 year reunion. I guess they wanted to round it out as "20 years later" since it's 2011 in the Dexterverse right now, but it is still very lopsided on the writer's part.

So yeah, he's in his 40's they just fucked up bad on the high school reunion on all counts.
