Plot
Mike begins the episode talking about Dexter. He laments both its inaccuracies and that he can't use his knowledge of it to help him kill a cop.

Now on the latter half of the third challenge, Mike is tasked to murder a cop. WOE.BEGONE provides evidence that the cop is not a good person, but Mike decides to be true to himself in his intentions, and kill him for the sake of WOE.BEGONE rather than because the cop is a bad person. Mike thinks that this is the selfish mental attitude he needs to win WOE.BEGONE, to eventually have the technology WOE.BEGONE uses for himself. After successfully stalking and killing the cop, Mike takes the body and goes into hiding, intending to "lay low for a week," as instructed by WOE.BEGONE.

In his cabin and keeping an eye on the news Mike waits out a week until a police officer knocks on his door. Opening the door he disappears, and Mike receives a text message claiming that WOE.BEGONE needed to "figure out the contingencies." After heading home, Mike receives an mysterious email from an old friend.
