MISTAKES/GOOFS

FACT: Dexter finds the story of Laura's murder in the October 3rd edition of the newspaper. The October 3rd paper would report on what happened October 2nd. Brian would have known that they were actually "born free" on 10/2, not 10/3 (leaving aside the fact that if they were found on 10/2, then the murders actually occurred on 9/30).
CREW: SPOILER: At the end of the episode, when Dexter flips the switch sending Rudy Cooper/Brian Moser upside down, the tube pumping blood out of his neck is clearly visible to the left running up the metal frame and out the back right side. Even a piece of black gaffer tape is seen in the second/final shot stuck to Rudy Cooper/Brian Moser's chin.

TRIVIA

While Dexter and Rudy was sitting around the table, Rudy drinks a beer which has a skull logo on it. Brand of the beer is "Jekyll Island" which resembles the book "Dr. Jekyll & Mr Hide ".
SPOILER: According to the flashbacks, Rudy/Brian is supposed to be four years older than Dexter. In real life, Christian Camargo (Rudy) is actually four months younger than Michael C. Hall (I).
