Back in the lab, we see Topher get a phone call, and although we can't hear what's said, it causes him to go scampering off into the night...
...and then he's showing up at Nolan's door, inside which he finds the corpse of the man in question. He finds the devastated Priya lurking around a corner and urgently tells her they have to get out of there. It would be interesting to see what, if any, his plan would be from here, but their escape doesn't come to pass, as they hear an unseen person enter the place. Topher can't resist the impulse to look who it is...and it's Boyd. Phew. Topher starts to babble in disbelief, but Boyd quickly tells him that as Head of Security, he hears every call in the Dollhouse (that's...a lot of calls, dude, don't know how you have time for anything else), before ordering Priya to wash her hands and then go pack a suitcase of Nolan's warm-weather clothes. He then tells Topher to go out to the van, where he'll find containers of sulfuric acid, a plastic sheet, and a bag of tools. Topher, apparently having lived in a world in which the numerous movies and television shows that have explained the concept of a cleaner do not exist, asks what he's talking about, so Boyd tells him, "Consequences." Way to prolong the surprise there, Boyd.
