Before he can drive away, though, Jonah rushes out and asks how he's supposed to live with this guilt, and Dexter, echoing Mos Def, tells him to forgive himself before running the manifestation of Brian down, after which, in the rearview mirror, Brian disappears.

Greene and a typically insufferable Masuka come in to Deb's office, whereupon Greene tells her that, with a combination of computer skills, marginally illegal activity, and common sense, he was able to narrow down the number of possible matches for EJO's accomplice to two hundred. Masuka acting like he had ANYTHING to do with this is frankly stunning, but I'm glad Greene's star continues to rise around here.

Dexter stops to pick up a hitchhiker -- Harry, who greets him: "Welcome home, son." Dexter looks happy to see him, and they drive off...but next week, Deb and Miami Metro track Colin Hanks down.
