I can hear rain coming
from 40 miles away.
I can even hear
someone's moods.
There are
others out there like you.
I can feel them.
We'll find them, Mohinder,
all of them.
It's our destiny.
I was surprised to learn the Linderman
group recently invested in your campaign.
I don't know why
you'd be surprised.
Mr.
Linderman was a good
friend of my father's.
What Mr.
Linderman wants,
Mr.
Linderman gets.
***.
Has he been located?
The Haitian? No.
How long was he
hiding Claire?
I take it
it's been months.
Just one more thing.
When
should we be expecting Claire?
I'll bring her in now.
I wanted to protect you.
I tried to be
the best dad I could.
This is goodbye.
You don't have to do this.
There can't be any doubt
cast on your father.
Claire, turn around.
Cover your ears.
Dad! I love you, Dad.
I love you, Claire-bear.
Go deep.
Take anything that
would lead them to her.
Just one bullet,
I can be a hero.
Show yourself!
No.
I thought
she was you.
It was supposed to be you.
Can't you do something?
She's dead.
Can't be.
It's your fault.
You did this.
Hey, you stop right there.
What is the problem? I am
here with tour from Osaka.
Security just flagged you.
You must be some kind of cheat.
What?
You already got a warning, and
most people don't even get that.
Oh! Oh! It is okay!
I am invited now
by Mr.
Linderman.
Well, in that case
It's all gone.
So you honestly
don't remember anything?
I told you.
I'm trying.
The last thing I remember is driving
home from the hospital with my wife,
and after that, it's just
It's gray, blank.
Mmm-hmm.
So Sprague and Parkman taking your
family hostage, shooting your daughter,
a bullet
clean through your side,
you'd think something there
might have made an impression.
My daughter is missing,
so right now, I don't care if you
believe me or what you do to me.
I just want her home, safe.
You can kill me if you want.
I'm gonna find her!
Settle down.
You'll tear your new
stitches if you're not careful.
Hmm.
Well, clearly,
your partner's gone rogue,
taking a pie slice
of your memory with him.
He did the same thing
to your wife and son.
They remember even less.
When can I go after them?
Sorry, can't let
that be your errand.
She's my daughter.
She's an assignment,
or have you forgotten?
We gave her to you,
took her out of a bassinet, put her in
your hands and told you to take her home,
and that's after you said,
"No, thank you.
"
Now, I appreciate you
taking an interest in her
beyond the needs
of the assignment,
but that indulgence
ends now.
You expect me to do nothing?
I expect you to do
whatever we ask of you.
Well, what do we think?
He's telling the truth.
He doesn't know anything.
Hmm.
You owe me
five bucks.
Come on.
Wait.
We had a deal.
I help you out.
You let me go.
Take it easy, Parkman.
We'll get there.
What?
Hey! Hey!
You have not said
anything all day.
I thought you'd prefer it.
It's not like you'll tell me
where we're going anyway.
As soon as I know where
we're going, I will tell you.
When can I go back
to my family?
Shall I lie to you
and say it will be soon?
You know
what we run from.
Yeah, the people
you and my dad work for.
What they will do, not
even you can recover from.
Great.
Thanks, Dad.
You cannot understand the level of
sacrifice he made so you might live.
You must honor that.
Is it safe to go back?
No, we leave
the country tonight.
Sorry, Mr.
Petrelli,
these men wanted to see you.
They're from the
FBI.
I'm
Federal Agent Quesada.
This is Agent Alonzo.
We'd like to speak with you concerning
illegal campaign contributions
you may have received
from the Linderman Group.
The FBI is curious
why the Las Vegas-based Linderman
Group would be so interested
in helping
a New York candidate.
My father served as
an in-house attorney
for the group
before he passed away.
It's all right.
We're clear.
No one's listening.
You agreed
there'd be no face-to-face.
And you agreed
to deliver Linderman.
I'm the one who brought
you in here, remember?
I'd appreciate
a little discretion
as opposed
to a surprise office visit.
No one outside this office
knows you're working with us.
Linderman's requested a meeting
with you at his casino tonight.
Any guesses why?
I'm still four points behind.
He's gonna tell me
how he plans to put me ahead
and what's expected of me
after I win.
Yeah, we were thinking
the same thing,
and we want you
to record it.
You want me to wear a wire?
You're the only one
on our side
who can get enough incriminating
evidence to put him behind bars.
We need this, Mr.
Petrelli,
and so do you.
Otherwise, he walks.
We'll contact you
when you land in Vegas.
How long have you been
working with the FBI?
Since Heidi's accident.
I'm gonna take Linderman down
for a long time, Peter.
I thought I could be a hero,
save the world.
Instead, I just killed
What is that?
That's not your blood,
is it?
No, it's Simone.
Isaac shot her.
She's dead.
She's dead.
Did you call
the police?
No.
Okay, here's
what's gonna happen.
I'm gonna make
an anonymous phone call, okay?
You'll have had
absolutely nothing to do
But I did.
She's dead because of me.
I don't know what to do.
I insist that
you don't do anything.
Do you understand?
This is not the time for you
to get noble, okay?
Just stay with me.
I can't.
I can't.
As long as I'm alive, everyone
around me is in danger.
Suresh.
We can call
Suresh, okay?
He can study you.
He can
He's working on a cure.
Isn't it too late for that?
Wait.
Sir, you have
your flight to Vegas.
Just tell the driver
to wait.
Peter!
Well, there you are.
Lyle's watching
pay-per-view in the other room.
I'm gonna run to the gym
before there's an ellipto-line.
I tell you, that flood
in our basement's turned
into a right vacation
for this family.
Too bad Claire's missing it all
with that cheerleading retreat.
Oh, I'm not
gonna answer that.
I've got the dog hotel giving
me hourly updates on Mr.
Muggles.
They hate me.
Sorry, I have
to take a trip.
Now?
What else?
You stay here,
take care of Lyle.
I'll be back
as soon as I can.
If anyone comes
looking for me Stop.
Stop.
You can't go.
What are you doing?
Why are you whispering?
Because you told me to
yesterday.
I thought you didn't remember
anything about yesterday.
You told me to pretend that
that man took my memory.
You took me in the shower.
You told me everything.
I told you?
What you really do, who you work
for and what happened to Claire.
Do you know where she is? Do
you know why I can't remember?
No, but you told me
you were protecting her.
You said you sent her away
so she'd be safe
and that if you went after
her, I should give you this.
"Claire's with friends.
Don't go after her.
"
This is my writing.
All right, look, we can't
let anybody know about this.
Don't worry.
I know
how to play dumb.
I could never
love you enough.
You do fine.
Puccini?
I thought of you
more as a John Denver type.
That your wife?
Your painter friend from
New York tried to reach you.
I chatted with him
for you.
Apparently, he's got himself
a dead girlfriend.
Nice guy.
Thompson doesn't need me
on this one.
I need to be here
with my family.
This isn't a request.
This is an assignment.
You do remember
assignments, don't you?
I'll get my things.
Yeah.
Let me guess.
Another paper emergency.
Huge order mix-up
in Fresno.
Sorry for stealing
your husband, Mrs.
Bennet.
It's just that he's the best
guy we've got in a pinch.
I like your hair.
So this is the list?
Yes, what's left of it.
Most of these people
are missing or dead.
I want to run your DNA sample
against my father's formula.
I'm gonna take you
someplace safe.
Wait.
This is
your father's formula.
This is how he made the list,
how he found me.
Yes, although I haven't figured
out what it is looking for.
A specific gene, codons?
There are three billion
base pairs in human DNA.
It's the proverbial needle.
Did my DNA help?
No.
Okay, well, Mohinder, you've
been driving all night.
Why don't you
just take a break?
I can't.
These
people are in danger.
We have to warn them.
If
Sylar gets to them first
Exactly, so let me help.
I mean, here.
Now, this one is in New York.
I'II Isaac Mendez.
I'll
call him, and you just relax,
just take a minute.
You're very kind,
Zane.
Thank you.
You have no idea how alone I
used to feel, how insignificant.
You've given me hope.
Hope is great.
We need caffeine.
So, this formula, if you figure it
out, how many of us will you find?
Who knows? Hundreds?
Thousands? Maybe more.
No.
It's busy.
I'll get him later.
To new friends.
This is good.
What is it?
Chai.
It's a special blend
my father brought from India.
Who are we gonna call next?
No one.
I already have you,
Mr.
Sylar.
Hiro?
Mr.
Petrelli?
Yeah.
Flying
Not here.
Sorry.
Flying man.
Yeah.
Let me guess.
You're still trying to steal
that sword from Mr.
Linderman?
Where's your friend?
Ando?
I sent him back to Japan.
This mission getting
too dangerous for him.
I think I know
what you mean.
You can't protect
everyone, right?
Sometimes it's better
to go it alone.
The more people
you try and help
The more people get hurt.
Yeah.
Please, you must help me.
I can't get past
casino-security giant.
When I first met you,
I thought you were nuts.
It's okay.
I thought you were mean,
but now I know.
You pretend you do
not care about anyone,
but you care too much.
It's really important to you
to get your powers back, huh?
It is important
for everyone.
Follow me.
You know who I am?
Of course,
Mr.
Petrelli.
My friend here is making a
delivery from me to Mr.
Linderman,
something he's expecting.
Oh, I didn't realize
You look like you've been around
long enough to know what happens
when Mr.
Linderman doesn't
get something he's expecting,
or do I have
to paint you a picture?
He can take it
to the curator.
That work for you?
Vivian Lewis?
My name is Vivian,
and I'm from Canada?
Are you kidding me?
I do not need you happy,
only safe.
There's nothing left of me.
Everything I am
is gonna disappear
the second
I get on that plane.
My friends, my family, me.
I can make you
forget it all
if that's what
you would prefer.
There's nothing left for
you here, no one to trust.
No, you cannot
see him again.
Peter Petrelli is the only person
I know I can trust, more than you.
He cares about me.
Why can't I hide
in New York with him?
He's not in a position to be
responsible, for you or himself.
Come.
Boarding pass and ID?
Boarding pass, ID?
Boarding pass and ID?
Sorry, sir, only ticketed passengers
are allowed beyond this point.
Isaac Mendez.
NYPD.
We have
a few questions for you.
Mr.
Mendez?
Detective Jeff Tracy, NYPD.
You know this woman,
Simone Deveaux?
She and I,
we broke up recently.
We received an anonymous phone
call that she might be hurt.
Some of your neighbors said they
heard an argument, then gunshots.
You mind if we take
a look around?
Isaac, what's going on?
Something wrong?
No, ma'am,
apparently not.
Sorry for taking your time.
Simone, you're alive.
Lucky you.
My, you're very useful.
Candice is special,
just like you.
And Simone's She's
traveling Europe indefinitely
as far as the rest
of the world is concerned.
There's a crew coming
to clean up this mess.
How am I supposed to pretend
this didn't happen?
Maybe you should have thought about
that before you shot her, twice.
What's the matter, sweetie?
You want to shoot me again?
Enough.
I can't stay here.
Take me with you.
That's not our assignment.
Please, I don't know
what to do.
Of course you do.
You keep painting.
My condolences.
Here we go.
When did you get so good?
I'm unemployed.
What do you think I do all
day when you're at school?
Wow.
One more?
I can't.
I'm gonna
be late for the bus.
So be late.
You're not gonna learn anything at
school that you don't already know.
Love you.
You know, you have
to admit it, Niki.
I do a better you than you.
Did you think
I wouldn't find out?
About what?
Where'd you get that?
It was on my pillow.
Well, I didn't put it there.
Were you digging
through my stuff?
Don't turn this around on me,
Niki.
You said no more secrets.
Now I find out you're
going to Linderman's casino.
For what? What they got
you doing with this guy?
It's nothing.
Linderman called,
and he asked me to be
a dealer.
That's it.
You know you're not talking
about just dealing cards, here.
That's all this is.
Don't you trust me?
I promise you, I won't do anything
that I don't want to, all right?
You left that for him,
didn't you?
Cute.
I can't feel my fingers.
It's the curare.
It induces
paralysis of the brain,
which means you can't
control your abilities.
Whoever you think I am,
I'm not.
You are the man
who murdered my father,
or do you still expect me
to believe you're Zane Taylor?
Zane was killed three days
ago, the same day I met you,
and you thought you were
so clever giving me his DNA.
You're a parasite.
You killed
my father and fed off his work.
Let me hear you say it.
Tell me your name!
Say it! I want
to hear you say it!
Sylar!
There's only one thing
to do with a parasite,
kill it before
it kills again.
You're just like your father.
Murderers, the both of you.
I'm a scientist.
Your father said that,
but he kept leading me
He had no idea
what you were.
He knew.
He might not have admitted it,
but, after all, we were making so much
progress together.
Why would he stop?
You know nothing
about my father!
I know everything.
He confided in me.
He told me things he felt
he could never tell you,
things about
your sister, Shanti.
He thought you were too What's
the word? Fragile to know the truth.
That's why he liked me.
You were always seeking his approval,
while I provided stimulation.
He gave up on you,
but he adored me.
Now, who's
the real parasite, here?
You're right.
My father did want answers.
He called you Patient Zero.
You're the template he used
to create this formula.
You're the key
to unlocking its secret.
As much as I'd like to,
killing you will not
give me what I need.
So what are you gonna do?
I'm going to take a sample
of your spinal fluid,
and it's going to hurt.
Might actually do
some good before you die.
There are so few Dead Sea
fragments left in the world.
Be a pity
if you crushed this one.
So many things.
You've brought
the new Mendez.
This one is very special.
This painting is ripped
and repaired with scotch tape.
Yes, very special.
Is there something else?
I need receipt for delivery.
There are 754 members of the
security team in this hotel,
all of them with the instructions
to drop what they are doing
and come running
if I push this button.
Security,
code orange, activated.
That sword you thought you'd steal,
do you even realize who it belonged to?
Takezo Kensei,
he was a hero.
Security, sir.
This man tried to steal
from Mr.
Linderman.
Hiro.
Come on, open up!
Open up!
The big guy says Linderman's gonna
be asking for me in about an hour.
I'm not in the mood for craps.
I'm gonna go straight to my room.
I guess it's hard to act natural
when you're going after the whale.
Maybe he'll chat up
a few more Japanese tourists.
Where the hell is that pizza?
Hi.
Hi, Agent Alonzo, Quesada.
Mr.
Linderman sends his
regards and a suggestion.
Don't run surveillance on a
man from inside his own hotel.
It's really tacky.
Kick over your guns.
Down.
It's so much easier
working with professionals.
I finally found it.
That's it! These four simple
genes, they answer everything.
Now, I can make a new list.
I can find them, save them.
And what about me?
Don't I deserve
to be saved?
Aren't I just a victim,
too? I didn't ask for this.
And what
would you have me do?
Help find a way.
Give me salvation.
Give me your damn list
so I can sink my teeth in!
I'm the natural progression
of the species.
Evolution is a part of nature,
and nature kills.
Simple, right?
What you've done is not
evolution.
It's ***.
What I am doing
is revenge.
Now, I can fulfill
my duty as a son.
I wasn't begging
for my life.
I was offering you yours.
You are your father's son.
So determined, you didn't
even notice I stopped the IV.
Don't worry.
You might actually
do some good before you die,
starting with that list.
I'm back in my room.
I'll
be on the floor in an hour.
Wearing this could get
a person killed.
Okay, it's all right.
Easy.
Listen to me.
I don't know how much
time we have before she comes back.
Who? Jessica, the woman
that they sent after you.
You picked the wrong day
to screw with me.
Linderman knows
about the wire and the FBI.
Then you know the FBI can
hear everything we're saying.
No, they can't.
They're dead.
Linderman knows
that you turned on him.
Did you come here
to kill me or warn me?
Just trust me.
Well, you're back early.
Hey, good news.
I convinced the hotel to let
us keep Mr.
Muggles in the room.
That is good news.
I've been going out of my head,
thinking everybody's watching me,
waiting for me to make a
mistake.
Did you find her?
No, I can't do that.
If I know where she is,
they can extract it from me.
I need you to be strong
a little while longer.
We both have to pretend that
we have no idea what happened
so Claire will be safe.
But the company
Has to be stopped
for good.
That's the only way to make
sure that Claire will stay safe.
I didn't know that I could
talk to you like this.
I always just thought that you'd be so
furious at me for all the lies and deceit.
Right now, we just have
to take care of Claire.
We'll talk about us later.
Must be the kennel.
Hello?
Yes, he is.
Yes, he is going
to be a problem.
Why don't we do it
right now?
One second.
Sorry.
Get over here!
I'm sorry.
I hope
I have the right address.
I'm looking
for Peter Petrelli.
You picked a terrible time
to do that.
Peter's not here just now.
You may as well
come inside, Claire.
Who are you?
I'm your grandmother,
and I've been trying to protect you,
but you haven't made that very easy.
Quite stubborn, aren't you?
Just like your father.
Linderman hired her to kill
the FBI and keep you in line.
Who?
Let's just say I owe her.
He's gonna offer you a deal.
If you go in there,
you have to take it.
Spend the rest of my life with
his boot on my neck? No, thank you.
Then run.
Get your family and run.
You said that you
had kids.
Two boys?
I can't do that.
You don't have
any other option.
Yeah, I do.
I could kill him.
Then knock me out.
Why?
So Jessica knows
she's not in control anymore.
Who's Jessica?
You want this gun?
Do it.
Not up there.
Mr.
Linderman won't be
meeting you in his office.
Mr.
Linderman?
Right.
Do you enjoy vegetables,
Mr.
Petrelli?
I've been known to eat
zucchini when the mood strikes,
but not as a rule.
You know, you can probably
hire someone to do that for you.
Oh, yeah, I like to
cook.
It's my meditation.
One aims for perfection
in one's life,
but one doesn't
find it very often.
For me, this is about
as close as it gets.
Voil�! A pot pie,
wholesome, warm, healthy.
That's, of course, if you can
live without the cream sauce.
Personally, I can't.
I mean, what's the point?
You know, people can sleep,
or they can gamble,
or they can even make love
when they're miserable,
but I think that most people
eat when they're happy.
I like to see people happy.
Are you happy, Nathan?
Not especially.
I guess I have a few issues
that plague me.
Oh, dear,
I'm sorry to hear that.
You see, I think there comes a
time when a man has to ask himself
whether he wants a life of
happiness or a life of meaning.
I'd like to have both.
Can't be done.
Two very different paths.
I mean, to be truly happy, a man
must live absolutely in the present.
I mean, with no thought
of what's gone before
and no thought
of what lies ahead.
But for a life of meaning,
a man is condemned to wallow in the
past and obsess about the future.
My guess is that you've
done quite a bit of obsessing
about yours
these last few days.
Now, you can't have
any of my pot pie.
I won't hold it against you.
Lots of men
have tried to kill me.
Then I'll be the last.
Of course, you can pull
that trigger, Nathan.
You'd be taking
both of our lives.
You'll be dead within moments.
Or I could offer
you something.
I'm not interested in
anything you have to offer me.
I think you are.
I think there are things you need
to hear, things that I know about.
Too late for that.
That you can fly,
for instance,
or about your brother, Peter,
and his small problem.
Your daughter, even,
and all those others
out there like you.
I can offer you more
than just information, Nathan.
You're gonna win your
election.
I'll see to that.
And two years from now, through
a series of fluke circumstances,
you will find yourself
in the White House,
a heartbeat away
from the Presidency.
A life of meaning, Nathan.
Think about it.
The choice is yours.
Suresh?
Suresh?
It's Peter Petrelli.
Mohinder?
Sylar.
I remember you.
You're like me,
aren't you?
I'd like to see
how that works.
