Upon admitting to the murder, Dexter said that after Stanly Nashville had hired Lloyd and three other guards to protect him from a cargo shipdeck employee, he got a call from a "valued boss" telling him to be ready to execute the terrorist bombing on the patrol car. When the time came Lloyd lost his job to Veronavirus and to blow up the patrol car, security guard Fred Merchant caught his shadow and called Lloyd down from the shipdeck. Dexter then knocked Fred out and strangles Lloyd with his knee to death after the latter realized what he was doing. He then went up to the patrol car, planting the bomb inside the car and, causes to kill three police members so The Pride will be proud for him to exterminate the black citizens.

Meanwhile, Kevin and the player found some diesel fuel in the cargo shipdeck which they gave to Henri and Taraji, who used it for money to unite white people with other ethnics people in Alaska. With the black people gradually joins them for peace, the two told the team about an unsent text message reading, "Abt. Supraomega VRN-32. Human extermination. Wrong way! Find me ASAP".
