"Don't you ever think what it would be like to just soar over that desert?" "Mmm." "I took a helicopter ride over Red Rocks Park one time..." "I wasn't thinking in a helicopter." "I was thinking more like...flying." "flying?" "You know, if I were your husband, I don't think I'd let you travel alone." "I don't have a husband." "He left." "For another woman?" "I wish." "Man?" "I would take that one, too." "He's sort of a criminal, and by "sort of,"" "I mean that he is." "Well, then my questions end there." "Thanks." "Do you have any kids?" "That's another question." "Right." "One." "Boy genius." "Boy?" "Boy." "I've got two boys." "Not geniuses, just boys." "It's weird having children." "Isn't it?" "It's like you've got to be two different people." "Like the person that they see and the person that you really are?" "Something like that, yeah." "Yeah." "Still married?" "Yeah, I am." "Happy?" "Yes, very." "I guess my questions, they stop there."

"How are you going to explain to your son what happened to you when you didn't honor your agreement?" "Look, I will find another way to pay Linderman." "No, Iet me rephrase that question." "How are you going to explain to your son what happened to him when you didn't honor your agreement?" "You think about that, Niki." "Niki's not here right now." "(YELLING)" "If you threaten our son again, I'm going to put my heel through your skull." "Do you understand?" "Do you understand?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "Did you forget something?" "(JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING)" "What if we went back tomorrow?" "Look, I'm not trying to discount your experience." "It's just a week ago I was in my own country, a respected professor." "Now, you want me to stalk a heroin addict" "(SLOWING DOWN) who allegedly paints the future." "Mohinder?" "BRODY:" "Yeah, all right." "Catch you later, man." "AII right, good practice." "What are you doing here so late?" "Making banners for spirit week." "Jackie was going to give me a ride home but she left without me." "Can I get a lift?" "Yeah, I guess." "Thanks." "Hey, you drive a stick shift, right?" "Can I drive?" "Don't you think it's a Iittle weird that neither one of us remembers what happened the night of the bonfire?" "Must have been some night." "Yeah, must have." "slow down." "That was a red light." "Whoops." "You know how to drive a stick shift, don't you?" "There's a Iot of things that I know." "Like what you did to me." "What'd I do to you?" "I knew it." "I knew this would happen." "You get drunk, you come on to me and it's my fault?" "You're a liar." "You can't rape the willing, claire." "You wanted it as bad as I did." "Stop the car." "Did I want it as bad as Lori Trammel?" "Lori Trammel is a slut." "Is that what you're going to say about me?" "I already do." "You're just going to keep at it, aren't you?" "You should let it go, claire." "There's nothing you can do about it." "I can do this." "(SCREAMING)" "Just take the one." "(YELLING)" "(POUNDING)" "Peter Petrelli." "How is this happening?" "I'm sorry if I scared you." "You look different without your scar." "I don't know you, buddy." "Not yet."
