At the hospital, the doctor appears, and we get to see some shitty acting from the non-speaking extras as DVO notes that Mos Def has cashed his last check from this show. Harry appears next to Dexter and asks if he'll honor Mos Def's dying wish, and Dexter at least concedes that he wants to. Harry encourages him to show Nick the light, and all I'll say is that I have a feeling that he might regret his phrasing here. Dexter gets up and conveniently runs into Nick, whom he asks to take a ride with him...

...while Deb sits alone in Casa Murder-Suicide, the party apparently having failed to withstand the awkwardness of her not having been able to tell her live-in boyfriend that she ever gave a shit about him. After leaving a message for Dexter ("Where are you, bro?"), she picks up the shrink's card, which we saw her deliberately place in her office; did she anticipate the need to call her tonight? Then again, we at least can clearly see her name is "Michelle Ross," so we'll be on a first-name basis when we start with their regularly unbearable sessions.

Dexter and Nick are walking on the beach where Mos Def baptized Nick when the latter asks what this is about, because gang members are always patient about getting to the point, and also, given that he was turning on the waterworks earlier, you'd think he'd at least pretend to be a little sniffly here, especially if he's going to act like he has no idea what Dexter's talking about when he asks Nick to explain himself. Dexter, however, informs Nick that Mos Def regained consciousness and told him what happened, and he wants to know why he did it. Nick replies that he doesn't know, which isn't what Dexter wants to hear; his voice starting to tremble with emotion, he asks how he could do that to someone who sacrificed for him and just wanted to help him. Nick, however, suddenly yells that Mos Def was full of shit - he told him his life would get better, and it didn't. Guess he never did build that "bomb website," then. He adds that his "homies" never lied to him like that, but they wouldn't take him back - not unless he proved himself. Dexter looks like he's made his peace with all this as he tells Nick that Mos Def loved him, and sent him there to forgive him. Nick looks worried as he says he has to talk to him, so Dexter tells him he's dead, and I'm sorry, WHAT? I thought Nick was staying away from the hospital until he heard Mos Def was dead, which would be logical. But he just happened to show up right after he passed? None of the crew called him earlier? This show, I swear. Horrible.
