[[The alternate Nick begins to explain his situation to Dexter, Chris, Trish, Patty, and the James Sisters.]]
Nick: Like I said, I have a theory. It's a bit of a long-shot, and so far I've only been able to predict where the "bugs" will show up. But if I extrapolate my models, maybe...

Nick: Some time ago, one of my former colleagues engineered a plan to break up the company that used to work here. Smith might remember her. Trueheart was her name.
[[Dexter raises a curious eyebrow.]]

Nick: I think part of her goal was to coerce me into helping her. She isolated me from all of my friends and family, while trying to get me to work on this idea I was formulating.

Nick: Everything fell apart, though. I could never get my idea to work, and I think whoever she was working for wasn't pleased. The police said it was suicide, but somehow I doubt that.
[[Patty, Trish, and Chris exchange glances.]]
