Episode summary: Dexter notices that he is being tailed by an undercover car as he leaves Rita's house, where he had fallen asleep in a lawn chair. He follows Harry's Code and goes to his apartment to get ready for work instead of heading to the cabin to dispose of Jimenez's body. LaGuerta tries in vain to reach Doakes on the phone to see why he stood her up the night before. Deb and Lundy wake up after spending the night together after they discovered that the Bay Harbor Butcher is probably someone in Homocide. After pillow talk, they end up discussing whether or not they should announce their relationship at work; Lundy believes in "full disclosure" while Deb appears reluctant tell everyone just yet. Their discussion is interrupted by a phone call for Lundy, and Deb and viewers are treated to a shot of Lundy's bare backside as he hurriedly gathers items from his closet before heading for the shower. Lundy has to leave, perhaps for a break in the BHB case, and the issue of letting people at work know they are dating is unresolved. Deb later tries to let Lundy know that she is neither unsure or embarrassed about being with him, but notes that he is preoccupied with work ("something's up") matters that he does not reveal to her. Doakes is named the #1 suspect in the Bay Harbor Butcher case because Dexter's "trophy slides" were found in his possession, and he goes M.I.A. Dexter is picked up by an FBI detail and taken to the station. Lundy and Matthews ask Dexter what the slides "mean" and end up making him the first forensic tech in the chain of evidence. A protective FBI detail is assigned to guard Dexter at all times. Matthews remarks that Dexter has more reason than most to want to get to the bottom of things. To keep Deb from becoming part of his layer of protection, Dexter tells her that he would be worried for her safety if she were near him, and urges her to move into her new apartment. Lila continues to try to get under Dexter's skin by cozying up to Angel and reminding Dexter that she's the only one who can accept him for who is really is. Dexter and Rita make plans to have dinner together and talk about a reconciliation. When LaGuerta approaches Deb and asks her to intervene with Lundy about Doakes, an over-defensive Deb blurts out the news that she is "sleeping" with Lundy as Angel and Lundy are strolling by. Dexter escapes from his protective detail by climbing out of his bathroom window and making his way to his boat. Doakes surprises Dexter as he is disposing of Jimenez' dismembered body and they engage in struggle that leaves Dexter with a gunshot wound and Doakes unconscious in a cage in the cabin deep in the Everglades.
