"Where does it come from?" "This quest," "this need to solve life's mysteries, when the simplest of questions can never be answered?" "Why are we here?" "What is the soul?" "Why do we dream?" "Perhaps we'd be better off not looking at all." "Not delving, not yearning." "But that's not human nature." "Not the human heart." "That is not why we are here." "Yet, still we struggle to make a difference, to change the world, to dream of hope, never knowing for certain who we will meet along the way." "Who among the world of strangers will hold our hand," "touch our hearts," "and share the pain of trying?" "You don't love him." "Everything I've done, I did for them." "You should have taken the money." "Why did you take that bullet?" "You could have let it phase right through you." "It's okay." "Go." "Forget about me." "Save Micah." "Hit it!" "You can get us out of here." "You can walk us through this wall." "I don't know if I can." "You got to do this." "Harder!" "Come on, guys." "You can do this." "Surveillance picked them up in the elevator." "What does he want?" "Molly." "What am I thinking now, Parkman?" "Your last thought." "Lower your gun." "Shoot me, and she dies." "As long as she's alive, my daughter will never be safe." "None of them will." "You'll take the life of one little girl to save another?" "If I have to." "Taking her life would save thousands." "And Thompson, did you save thousands of lives by killing him?" "No, just my own!" "Officer Parkman?" "Molly?" "You know this man?" "I told you he was coming." "He promised to keep me safe." "That's right." "And nobody is gonna hurt you." "Nakamura Hiro." "Peter Petrelli." "I challenge everyone here tonight to inspire by example, to fight the battle, no matter the cost." "Because the world is sick." "It's spinning out of control." "But we can heal it." "Heidi and the boys should be landing in Nantucket any minute." "Show the world exactly..." "Chopper's gonna meet us up on the roof in an hour." "Thank you all very much." "Thank you." "What is it, Ma?" "It's Linderman." "He's dead." "How?" "Someone got to him in his office." "He was murdered." "This is a terrible tragedy, Nathan." "Yes, it is." "But it doesn't change anything." "The plan wasn't just his." "You know that, Congressman." "Yeah." "After the explosion, the city is gonna need me, Ma." "America is gonna need me, the world." "This changes nothing." "NIKl: 42." "Micah's on this floor." "You go." "I'm only gonna slow you down." "I'm not leaving you." "You'll die if I do." "I can't go with you, Niki." "You need to do this alone." "You have to find Micah." "I can't." "You can." "You are strong enough." "You always have been." "I'm coming back for you." "You stay right here." "You understand me?" "Linderman's guards will be all over us if they find Thompson's body." "Maybe you should have thought of that before you shot him." "It was self-defense." "And Molly Walker?" "What's your excuse for nearly shooting her?" "She's dangerous." "You're gonna need to start trusting me, Dr. Suresh." "Yes, because that's worked out really well for me before." "The organization I used to work for once stood for something." "Now, it's been corrupted." "Used to work for?" "The only thing that's important to me now is protecting my family." "I will never let Molly be used to hurt anyone." "She can do good in this world." "I don't think you understand the true nature of this organization." "And you don't understand how important she is to me." "Those are my antibodies that saved her." "I'm responsible for her life." "Hey!" "There's something wrong with Molly." "Hello?" "Dad." "Claire?" "Where are you?" "Still in New York." "I'm with Peter, but there's a problem." "Ted Sprague's dead." "Sylar killed him." "Dad?" "Put Peter on the phone, please." "He wants to talk to you." "Hello?" "When you came into contact with Ted, you absorbed his power." "That's right." "Well, now that Sylar's absorbed it, too," "I think you may be the only one who can stop him." "Now all we have to do is find him." "Any idea where we start?" "There's a tracking system here." "We're trying to fix it now." "As soon as we do, we'll find him." "And if you don't?" "You just stay close to Claire's phone, okay?" "I'll contact you the second we know a location." "Whatever you do, you keep Claire safe." "You understand?" "Yeah." "What are we doing here?" "I actually believed you." "You lied to me." "You said you weren't going to call him." "I know, but think about it, Claire." "We can't do this alone." "No, you think about it." "We can't trust him." "Yes, we can trust him." "Nathan has never let me down." "Nathan doesn't care about you." "He doesn't care about anyone." "He doesn't care about me, and I'm his own daughter." "We do not need him." "Yes, we do." "Why?" "Because I'm afraid!" "Okay?" "And I need my brother to help us." "You lied to me, Peter." "I trusted you." "What's the emergency?" "The bomb, it's not me." "It's Sylar." "Sylar?" "He killed Ted Sprague, which means he's radioactive." "If he explodes..." "Look..." "I know that this is a lot to process, but it is real." "I swear." "And I don't have a lot of time to find him." "What do you want me to do?" "I don't know, just help me." "Come here." "Look, if what you're saying's real, then there's no reason to involve Claire in this." "It's just too dangerous." "No, she has to stay with me." "She's just a kid, Pete." "If I find Sylar, and I'm able to stop him, then she's the only one who can stop me if something goes wrong." "You're gonna be fine." "How do you know?" "You told me you could regenerate, that you could survive." "There's nothing you can do to stop it, Peter." "They're all gonna die." "What is it?" "Claire was right about you." "What are you talking about?" "Claire?" "Claire?" "Peter!" "Claire!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No, no, no, this isn't happening." "How much longer before she's up and running?" "She's not a machine." "I just gave her the transfusion." "It'll take some time." "Well, take too much time and the city will pay for it." "Sylar's out there." "You mean the boogeyman?" "Don't try to get up." "I can do it." "I can tell you where he is." "Okay, so how do we do this?" "I just..." "I think about him in my mind, then I point to him on the map, there." "I need a pushpin." "So you can find anyone in the world?" "You just need to think about them?" "Almost anyone." "Almost?" "There's only one that I can't." "Who's that?" "Is it someone bad, Molly, like the boogeyman?" "No." "He's a lot worse." "And why don't you want to find him?" "'Cause when I think about him, he can see me." "Molly, can you think about Sylar, now?" "He's there." "That's the Lower East Side, somewhere around Reed Street." "Isaac's loft." "Isaac Mendez, the painter?" "Who?" "I gotta call Peter." "Why don't you let me answer that for you?" "Hello?" "Claire?" "No, this is her grandmother." "Where is she?" "Where she belongs, with her family." "Dad!" "I'm her family." "No, you're the man we gave her to, to look after, to keep safe, a job you haven't done particularly well." "What are you gonna do with her?" "Take her someplace far enough to keep her out of harm's way." "I suggest you do the same." "There isn't much time." "Let me say goodbye to her." "Dad." "Claire, are you okay?" "Yeah, I'm just trying to get away from these people." "No." "No." "You're better off going with them." "What?" "She's right." "You shouldn't be here, but as soon as you're safe out of the city, you try and get away." "Do you understand?" "Yeah." "I need to find Peter." "Where is he?" "I don't know." "They won't tell me." "That's long enough, dear." "Tell me you have a plan, Dad." "I have a plan." "I love you, Claire." "I love you, too." "We have a new priority." "Peter Petrelli, we have to find him." "What for?" "We know where Sylar is." "We can go after him." "No, not without Petrelli." "He's the only one who can stop him." "I've come 3,000 miles." "I left my pregnant wife at home." "He's a bad guy." "I'm a cop." "I'm going after him." "Then he will kill you." "Yeah, we'll see." "Here you are, sir." "Thank you." "Hi." "Hi." "I'm Peter." "I'm your father's new nurse." "Yes, I've heard." "I'm Simone Deveaux." "Nice to meet you." "Your mother seems to know my father somehow." "Yeah, she's..." "She's..." "Sorry." "Yeah, my mother, she's full of surprises." "I wanna thank you." "I know it's a real hard job." "Dying's hard." "What I do, it's just..." "I'm here to help." "No, you're a real hero to care for a perfect stranger like this." "This may sound strange, but your father's last few weeks, his death," "it could be beautiful if you let it be." "Sure, piece of cake." "I'm not saying it's not tragic for you." "I'm just saying..." "You know, death is the one thing that connects us all, reminds us that what's really important is who we've touched, and you know, how much we've given." "It makes us realize that we have to be good to one another." "See, your father, he's the real hero, not me." "Come on, I'll show you the apartment, get you settled in." "Believe me, if he knew, you'd know." "There's a look you just can't hide when it first shows." "What about Nathan?" "Linderman tells me Nathan will be ready to play his part." "Well, he's been wrong before." "Meaning what, exactly?" "I think that Linderman is betting on the wrong brother." "We talking about the same Peter, here?" "I look in Peter's eyes, I see compassion, empathy, but, most of all, I see hope." "This war won't be saved on strength." "What it really needs is heart, and that's Peter." "Charles, don't get me wrong." "I love Peter, but that poor kid can barely get out of his own way." "He's ruled by insecurities." "He's weak." "No, trust me, this bomb is going to go off, and Nathan is going to be the one the world turns to." "I don't believe this tragedy's inevitable." "Well, then, one of us is going to be right and one of us won't." "Well, I'm glad I won't be alive to see which one that is." "You are in my prayers, Charles." "I could use them." "Goodbye, my dear, dear friend." "I know you're there, Peter." "Looks like you dropped something." "Comic book that predicts the future." "What will they think of next?" "You're kidding?" "This is how Isaac thought I'd die, stabbed by a silly little man?" "Hiro is not silly." "You should have seen the look on his face when he tried to kill me." "You cannot take my brain." "Please, what would I want with your brain?" "Where is Peter Petrelli?" "I don't know." "Where is he?" "Let him go." "I don't think I'm going to." "Hiro." "All you have to do is stop time before I cut off his head." "Do you think you can do your little trick before I can do mine?" "Micah!" "Where are you?" "Micah!" "How..." "NIKl:" "You can't be here." "Look what you did." "Oh, my God." "Micah." "It's all your fault, Niki." "D.L., now Micah." "They're both gone, because you were weak." "Micah, please." "The wrong sister died." "It should have been you." "Face it, Niki, you're nothing." "I'm the one they needed." "Molly, we need to go, now." "Where are we going?" "Officer Parkman called." "He believes that Sylar..." "He believes the boogeyman is on his way." "No, he's not on his way." "He's already here." "I have to get some paperwork." "I'm not going to be coming back to my office." "Helicopter's picking us up from the roof in 10 minutes." "When the jet lands tomorrow morning, you'll be safe." "But everyone else will be dead." "How can you do nothing to stop this?" "It's inevitable, dear." "There's nothing anyone can do about it." "That's insane!" "Nothing is inevitable." "The future is not written in stone." "I'm afraid this one is." "If everything is so inevitable, then why has she been trying to keep us apart all these years?" "There are things you simply aren't mature enough to understand yet." "Yeah, like how you can let your own son die like this." "Your own brother!" "He's not gonna die." "Thanks to you, Peter has the ability to survive." "So he lives and kills millions of people." "How can you let him be responsible for something like that?" "And how can you live with yourself if he is?" "Claire, I know that it's hard for you to trust me right now, but this is all gonna make sense very soon." "I promise." "We're offering you everything you've ever wanted, Claire, a place to belong, a family." "I already have a family." "No!" "I know what you're thinking, Nathan." "Let her go." "You understand." "How many times have I saved your ass?" "I'm the only reason that you're still alive." "Niki, that's not me." "Stop her." "Find Micah." "What?" "I said, stop her." "That's not me." "I'm not strong enough." "Who the hell are you talking to?" "Mom?" "Micah?" "Mom, I'm in here!" "It's locked." "Mom!" "Is it really you?" "It's me, baby." "It's just me." "Wait!" "He could be a bad guy." "He needs my help." "Okay, we need to get him out of here." "It's not working." "They must have shut it down." "Okay, I need a lookout." "Can you do that?" "Stand over here and keep an eye out." "If anyone comes, tell me straightaway." "Hiro!" "Invisibility, always thought that that would be a good one to have." "I don't understand." "How is this happening?" "You're alive." "Is this a dream?" "Am I time traveling?" "Are you doing this?" "Doesn't really matter what it is, does it?" "Only that you're here, now." "Yeah, but I saw you speaking to my mother." "You know about the bomb." "You know about everything." "You came here because you needed to." "You needed to hear the truth before you could save the world." "Can I save the world?" "You've had the power all along, Peter." "You just needed to learn how to use it." "Why me?" "Because there has to be one that's good, there always has, and your heart has the ability to love, unconditionally." "Like I told you, in the end, all that really matters is love." "I'm tired now." "Let's get you your rest, then, sir." "Call me Charles." "Peter." "Peter!" "Wake up!" "Wake up." "I must have blacked out." "How did you find me?" "I told you, we have a tracking system." "And where's Claire?" "She's safe." "She's with your mother." "My mother?" "Yeah." "They're on their way out of the city right now." "Okay." "Then you need to leave, too." "I don't think I can control this." "No." "I'm staying with you." "You saved my daughter's life." "I told you I owed you for that." "Consider this payback." "Yeah, but if I can't stop Sylar, if I lose it, I could..." "I will put you down myself." "Don't worry." "I'm a pretty good shot." "Thank you, Mr. Bennet." "Call me Noah." "Come on." "The guards are coming!" "Dad!" "Micah?" "We have to go." "It won't work." "Yes, it will." "NIKl:" "Come on, D.L." "Come on!" "Dad, hurry!" "You know, it doesn't look like there's many places to hide." "Are you sure about this tracking system?" "He's here." "Don't worry." "All right." "Look, all right, then that means he's hiding in plain sight." "What took you so long?" "Haven't I killed you before?" "Didn't take." "You think I'm gonna let you ruin it all, take all the glory?" "Come on, let's go." "Did you really think you could stop me?" "Mom, Dad needs your help!" "Go back to your family." "I got this." "Wait." "No!" "No!" "Turns out you're the villain, Peter." "I'm the hero." "Sylar!" "You?" "Hiro!" "Peter Petrelli!" "You can stop this." "How?" "I need you to kill me." "Do it!" "Do it!" "You're the only one, Claire." "Tell me there's another way, please." "Shoot me." "There is no other way." "Yes, there is, Claire." "The future isn't written in stone." "I took his power, Nathan." "I can't control it." "I can't do anything." "I'm not leaving you, Peter." "There's another way to end this and you know it." "I can't let you die." "And I can't let everyone else." "You saved the cheerleader so we could save the world." "I love you, Nathan." "I love you, too." "You ready?" "What happened to them?" "Wait!" "Please don't die, Officer Parkman." "You're my hero." "We dream of hope." "We dream of change, of fire, of love, of death." "And then it happens." "The dream becomes real." "Let's go." "And the answer to this quest, this need to solve life's mysteries finally shows itself, like the glowing light of the new dawn." "Let's go home." "Home where?" "Our house burnt down." "Home is anywhere our family is together." "You've got a plan, right?" "So much struggle for meaning, for purpose, and in the end, we find it only in each other, our shared experience of the fantastic" "and the mundane." "The simple human need to find a kindred, to connect, and to know in our hearts" "that we are not alone."
