More likely that Gellar covered for Travis (I think Travis stole the sword), lost his job in the process, and unsuccessfully tried to talk Travis out of the madness he had planned to commit with the sword. Travis killed him, and realizing what he had done, was so distraught that he asorbed Gellar into his consciousness. Except instead of being the voice of reason, Gellar became Travis's madness. This is in sharp contrast to Dexter's adoptive father being an enabler to Dexter's murderous urges while he was alive, but then being the voice of reason in Dexter's hallucinations, once he had passed away. The whole season, Travis has been a polar opposite to Dexter (when you consider their opposing beliefs), but also his mirror self in every other way. The whole thing seems like a commentary on how someone can be 'moral' and 'just' while being atheist, and someone else can be totally immoral and unjust while being devoutly religious. Kinda strange how that works, but it's not like there aren't real-life examples of this.
