"NARRATOR:" "Previously on Heroes." "It's my father's ashes." "MOHINDER:" "Will this work?" "I'm no closer to understanding my father's research." "What about the program in your dad's computer?" "Didn't you say it cracked some code?" "I thought he had the sequencing method to identify those with specific DNA markers." "But the algorithm, it's gibberish." "The mode or method is nothing like Sylar's last victims." "MATT:" "I don't think this guy is Sylar." "Sylar's kills are random." "He's never had any connection with his victims." "This guy is a killer." "But he's not Sylar." "EDEN:" "Suresh just left for India." "Then stop him." "I tried." "also, there may have been an encounter with somebody who could stop time." "He told him to save the cheerleader." "So what do you want me to do with the precog?" "Bring him in." "Isaac Mendez?" "Who are you?" "She's saying it's not your fault, Ted." "AUDREY:" "You did a great job in there." "Look, the guy was losing his wife." "He just wanted to talk to her, say goodbye." "You talk to your own wife yet?" "You've been dodging her call all day." "JANICE:" "Oh, God, he knows about the affair." "(GRUNTS)" "AII right." "AII right!" "MOHINDER:" "The Earth is large." "Large enough that you think you can hide from anything." "From fate, from God." "If only you found a place far enough away." "So you run... (CHANTING IN SANSKRIT)" "...to the edge of the Earth, where all is safe again." "Quiet and warm." "The solace of salt air." "BOY:" "Mom!" "Mom!" "The piece of danger left behind." "The luxury of grief." "And maybe for a moment, you believe you have escaped." "Mohinder." "You mustn't look back, Mohinder." "Your father's moved on to the next life." "Welcome back." "I thought I'd clean you up a Iittle bit." "You've had a rough couple of days, but you're doing great." "You'II be completely clean in no time." "You're sure I'II still be able to paint?" "After I teach you, yes." "The drugs were just a facilitator." "We're going to help you, Isaac." "That mural on the floor, we're not going to let that happen." "You seem pretty sure." "I am pretty sure." "Because?" "Because I went through the same thing myself." "AII right, you need anything else, Sheriff?" "lloyd?" "Mmm-hmm." "A gun to shoot Will Shortz." "(SNICKERING) Let me see." "SHERIFF:" ""Gandhi burial ground," 11 letters." "Something." "Ganges, maybe." "Kanyakumari." "K-a-n-y-a, and then you've got the rest right there." "How the hell did you know that, Charlie?" "That one of the stops on your trip?" "Oh, a trip around the world is pricey." "Right now I can only make it as far as Oklahoma City." "Who won the Academy Award for best actor in 1981?" "She's not Google, lloyd." "Henry Fonda." "On Golden Pond." "You know, I preferred Dudley Moore in Arthur, but if you really want to test me you want to ask me if I remember your credit card numbers." "(SPEAKING JAPANESE)" "(HIRO RESPONDING IN JAPANESE)" "Hey, anything looking good, guys?" "(HALTINGLY) Everything good-Iooking." "(CHUCKLES)" "Wow, you two are a Iong way from home." "We don't get a Iot of tourists out here." "Tourist?" "How you know we tourist?" "It's just a guess." "What's that on your jacket?" "(SPEAKS IN JAPANESE)" "That means "I don't belong here," right?" "You know Japanese?" "Well, I got this Japanese phrase book for my birthday about six months ago, and I started poking through it last week." "(IN JAPANESE)" "(EXCLAIMS IN JAPANESE)" "My, my, my!" "You learned all that from a book in just one week?" "Very good memory!" "Yeah, I remember lots and lots." "It's just something that my brain started doing lately, whether I want it to or not." "(CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY)" "So what'II it be?" "You pick." "Something delicious for me and for my friend." "He needs food for fat, fat!" "(CHARLIE LAUGHS)" "Okay, well, I've got just the thing." "One chiliquiles and one cottage cheese plate coming right up." "(IN JAPANESE)" "Just tell me you're not going back there again." "There are no answers for me there." "I belong here." "I'm glad to hear you say that." "You think I was a fool to go." "I think you had to." "It's an odd country, America." "Everyone there seems so lonely." "Including me." "I'm not sure what I accomplished by going there." "Only seeing things I wish I never had." "NIRAD:" "Mira came to pay her respects to your father, Mohinder." "Maybe there's more waiting here for you than just your professorship." "The new semester begins on Monday." "I didn't cancel your classes." "You can move into your father's old office, Mohinder." "Thank you." "Mira?" "I wasn't sure you'd speak to me at the funeral." "I didn't want to take that chance, so I Ieft." "I won't lie to you." "I was surprised to see you there." "Or anywhere, for that matter." "I said some terrible things to you, about your father, about his theories." "But now that he's dead, I feel..." "What's done is done." "Is it?" "Your mother tells me you're not returning to New York." "The new semester starts next week." "My life is here." "I've been promoted at the company." "Head of all genetic research." "Can you imagine?" "Good for you." "No, good for you." "It's the sort of cutting-edge science we used to talk about late into the night." "The world's worst pillow talk, I'd say." "I was hoping I could convince you to come in for an interview with the partners." "Only I'd have to know that your father's work, all of his theories, would stay right where they are." "Packed away in that box." "I don't expect an answer right now, but you will think about it, won't you?" "Yes." "We didn't say hello." "Hello, Mira." "Hello, Mohinder." "(DOOR CLOSES)" "THAYER:" "I need you to handle this." "I'II give you one hour." "You're an idiot, Parkman." "You know that?" "Well, good morning to you, too." "You think I wouldn't find out about you assaulting a fellow officer?" "I didn't assault him." "I just hit him." "This is why I don't like meeting people." "Nine times out of ten they let you down." "Wow, that's an optimistic view of the world." "Just an observation." "And how did this get to be about you?" "Because it was a stupid rookie move, and you could have jeopardized my investigation." "How serious is this?" "Are you getting suspended?" "I'II work it out." "Did he deserve it?" "Yeah." "Yeah, he deserved it." "Is he talking?" "Nope." "And he's got one hour before Homeland Security sends him down the rabbit hole as a suspected terrorist." "Terrorist?" "We both know he's not a terrorist." "His wife was dying, he lost control." "Of what?" "This guy puts out 1,800 curies of radiation without ever coming in contact with nuclear material." "We still don't know how that's possible." "You know, three months ago my job made perfect sense to me." "Then I pulled the Sylar case." "Crime scenes with no fingerprints, bodies frozen, brains removed..." "And now this guy." "That's two people..." "Make that three people who can do things I just can't explain." "Wait a second." "You think I'm like them?" "I don't know what I think." "But if we're going to find Sylar, I need answers." "I have no idea how this happened." "Well, then I guess that just leaves Ted, here." "What's this?" "Detects radiation levels." "As long as that's dark green, we're good." "Okay, but what's the bad color?" "Not green." "(CHARLIE READING IN JAPANESE)" "Perfect!" "You ready for disco." "(CHUCKLES) I got it right?" "almost." "Don't let me off easy, now." "(ARTICULATING PHRASE IN JAPANESE)" "(REPEATING)" "You learn very fast." "Yeah, lately I sort of remember everything I read." "It's kind of a skill, I guess." "My skill much more complicated." "Oh, yeah?" "What can you do?" "I can teach Japanese to anyone." "(IN JAPANESE)" ""Sweet."" "Means nice." "Cute." "That's not in book." "I Iike the way your cheeks wobble when you concentrate." "(LAUGHING)" "(BELL DINGS)" "Oh, sorry." "Someone's Denver omelet's up." "(EXCLAIMING IN JAPANESE)" "They won't even let me go to my wife's funeral." "AII I wanted was to be left alone." "We need you to answer a few more questions." "Can't you get your partner here to look inside my head?" "We need to have it on the record." "You burnt that doctor to the bone, probably gave your wife cancer." "How'd you do it?" "Ted." "Ted, if you don't let us help you they're going to take you away, and nobody'II listen to you." "Doesn't matter." "Nothing matters." "I killed my wife!" "Audrey." "You know, just lock me up." "Execute me." "Leave me the hell alone." "I wish we could, Ted." "I don't know anything about any nuclear materials!" "Ted." "Ted!" "You know what?" "Just relax." "You want me to be the terrorist?" "Huh?" "You want me to be the bad guy?" "Fine, I'II blow this place apart." "AUDREY:" "Ted!" "Ted..." "Stop!" "Just stop!" "Do it." "Do it!" "Ted!" "Do it!" "Ted, I know what you're going through." "Yeah, sure you do." "Yeah, Iike hell you do." "Come on, Ted!" "You've seen what I can do!" "Okay?" "Something is happening to me, too!" "Ted, I was able to read your wife's dying thoughts." "We're just trying to understand what it is." "Ted!" "Come on, Ted, relax." "Come on, just take me back." "Take me back to when this all started, okay?" "Just start from the beginning." "Good." "TED:" "I blacked out, and then when I woke up everything started dying." "You blacked out?" "How long were you out for?" "Were you drinking?" "When you came to, did you have bruises on your arms?" "I'll do you one better." "What's the matter, Parkman?" "(SIGHS)" "CHANDRA:" "I'm going." "MOHINDER:" "Don't walk away." "It doesn't matter what you think." "I'm not asking your opinion." "Yes, how could I have forgotten?" "You never have before, why should now be any different?" "It is my Iife!" "I'm going and that's final." "Has it never occurred to you that your actions could affect anyone else?" "I don't have time for anyone else's feelings." "clearly!" "The world needs to know about my findings." "That's all that's important." "The world doesn't care." "No one at the university cares." "You're becoming a laughing stock." "I can't cover for you any longer." "I'm not asking you to!" "How will you support yourself?" "What will you do for money?" "Oh, I'II get by!" "How?" "Do you know what doctors do in the United States?" "They drive taxi cabs." "It is one thing to publish a book in the comfort of the university." "It is another to leave everything behind, your wife, your family, your job, chasing a theory that is pure fantasy!" "It's a fool's errand." "We'II see who will be the fool, won't we?" "Yes, I guess we will." "Mohinder is right." "I am abandoning my family, my job." "You are." "But I know you, Chandra, better than you know yourself." "You will not stop thinking of this if you don't go." "It will consume you, and eventually all of us with it." "He will hate me for it." "I'm not sure that he doesn't already." "I should try to stay, for his sake." "Why?" "He will never take a place in your eyes." "That has always been the case." "Who are you?" "What do you want?" "I was in Kansas a couple months back." "I'd just made a big sale to the university hospital." "Dialysis machines." "(SCOFFS)" "The commission was going to give Karen and me enough money to... (SIGHS)" "I went to the hotel bar." "Buy everybody a few rounds." "There weren't many people there." "A couple from Wyoming, some professors, a student from Haiti." "The next thing I know, I'm waking up in my car." "It's two days later, and I'm in Tempe, Arizona." "These weird cuts and bruises all over me." "A couple of days later, I started to notice things." "I'd buy my wife flowers and they'd wilt." "Okay, what about your health?" "I mean, were you sick?" "Do you have headaches?" "Yeah." "Headaches." "But..." "Karen..." "The doctor said she had radiation poisoning." "From you?" "I was killing her." "Are there any other bodies out there we don't know about?" "(SIGHS FORCIBLY)" "I'm just saying." "This is not his fault." "He's just trying to figure this out." "Look, the same thing happened to me." "Okay, I blacked out." "I lost two days." "You should've told me about this." "I should've done a Iot of things." "Up until now, I haven't told anyone." "Not even my wife." "And now I can't stop hearing people's thoughts." "It's painful." "I'm hearing things that I should not be hearing." "Like what?" "Things that could ruin lives, things that could end marriages." "The guy that you described, the student, he was Haitian." "Big guy?" "Bald?" "Yeah." "Yeah!" "I'm telling you, I think I saw this guy right before I blacked out, too." "What are you guys talking about?" "A Haitian guy?" "These things that we can do, they're not normal." "We were cut." "We were injected." "BIacked out." "Who knows what they did to us." "Or how they changed us." "(DOOR OPENS)" "THAYER:" "Time's up." "What?" "AUDREY:" "Just a couple more minutes." "And you, you shouldn't even be here." "Your badge has been suspended." "Did he tell you where the nuclear material is?" "Move it." "He's coming with me." "What?" "No, you can't take him right now." "Yeah, they can." "Find the Haitian." "Find him!" "You gotta get him back in here." "I can't." "What do you mean, you can't?" "You heard what he said." "He's gonna help me figure out what happened to me." "Why did you lie to me about being suspended?" "Okay, so I Ieft that part out." "But you have come to me and asked for my help, and I come running to you every single time." "So now I'm asking for your help." "AII right?" "Get him back in here so I can talk to him." "I'm sorry, it's out of my hands." "That's good." "Mr. Bennet." "Rufus." "I got next month's parking sticker." "Just need you to sign for it." "I'II take care of that later, Rufus." "Oh!" "Sorry." "Sorry." "How's he doing?" "Heroin's out of his system." "His body doesn't want it anymore, but his mind still does." "Coherent?" "Very." "You ready to meet him?" "Yeah." "Isaac?" "This is Mr. Bennet, the man I told you about." "Hello, Isaac." "Drawing anything interesting?" "(SIGHS)" "It's nothing." "You know, that's not true." "You have the ability to paint the future." "That's something." "Something very important." "Feels like a curse." "No, it's a blessing." "Don't let anybody tell you differently." "We're gonna help you understand that." "I'm grateful you're helping me," "I'm just not sure why you're doing it." "To be 100% honest with you," "I need your help." "CHARLIE:" "How we doing?" "Yeah." "(CHUCKLING) Good."

"I had a dream last night." "You and father were talking before he left, and in it you persuaded him to go." "It's just a dream, Mohinder." "No, I need to know if it was true." "Your father and I were married for 33 years." "That is not an answer." "Yes, it is." "A marriage doesn't last that long without allowing the other person to be who he has to be." "How could you allow him to abandon everything, just like that?" "I'm afraid that answer is not as easy." "In the dream you said that I could never take the place of her." "Who did you mean?" "I suppose it's time that you knew now that your father's gone." "Mohinder, you had a sister." "A sister?" "Her name was Shanti." "She was five years old when she died, two years after you were born." "But why didn't I know this?" "Because it was too painful to talk about, especially for your father." "He loved her so much." "He was afraid that you would compare his love." "From the moment she was born, he was convinced that she was special." "And she was special." "ISAAC:" "These dates." "Suicide bomber." "15 people dead." "Train derailment, nine dead." "Earthquake, 81." "This girl, the one you've painted here, and here, and there," "she's my daughter." "My claire." "This man here goes by the name of Sylar." "He's going to kill her tomorrow night at her homecoming game." "Why?" "Because she's special, Iike you." "And that makes her a target." "Like me." "You're not the only one with special abilities, Isaac." "There are others." "Sylar is killing them, one at a time." "(EXHALES)" "If you know who he is, then why can't you stop him?" "Because nobody knows where he is." "I need your help." "I need you to paint this painting." "I'm sorry." "I've been trying." "I can't." "Not without the drugs." "Fine." "I promise, we will help you use your abilities, without this, but right now there just isn't time." "I'm fighting to get my Iife back, and you want me to just throw it away." "You know, for many years now, a number of us have been tracking, locating, monitoring people like you." "Sometimes the process goes smoothly, as in your case, but other times..." "Well, Iet's just say some people misinterpret our motives, and then it can go very wrong." "Fourteen years ago, there was just such a case, which, sadly, ended in a death." "Well, one left behind a baby girl who had no one to take care of her." "My wife and I had been having a hard time conceiving a child of our own at the time, and..." "And it was like" "(VOICE BREAKING) God had reached down and given us a miracle." "Isaac, this is my daughter we're talking about." "I'm begging you." "Let me try one more time, without them."

"Father!" "Help!" "Father!" "Father!" "Stop!" "Stop." "Stop." "Stop." "Dad!" "claire?" "Honey?" "Is everything all right?" "Yeah, everything's fine." "Can't a girl just visit her dad at work?" "You never visit me at work." "Okay, I'm busted." "I have an emergency." "A paper emergency." "A paper emergency!" "A paper emergency!" "Miss Roberts says we need a banner over the trophy case, and Jackie was all," ""We don't have paper that big!" ""They don't make paper that big!"" "So I thought I'd stop by and try to be a hero." "(SIGHS DRAMATICALLY)" "Well, if it'II make you a hero and maybe knock Jackie down a few notches, we might be able to find something that'II work." "Best dad ever." "I'm sorry, Mr. Bennet, we just have a Iittle situation." "You know what?" "The sample room is right down there, claire Bear." "You take anything you need." "Okay?" "Thanks, Dad." "First door on your left." "I'm sorry, I didn't know she'd be here." "So what's the problem?" "It's not working." "He can't do it." "He tried, he's just not there yet." "We tried his way, now we do it mine." "He has worked so hard to get clean." "You can't ask him to do this." "I'm not going to ask him." "You are." "No!" "No, you can't make me do that." "You knew this was a possibility." "You said when we started that I would never have to do it again." "You promised me." "I know what you think." "Who do you think taught you?" "Do you even remember what you were when I found you?" "You're the easy way." "I think we both know the hard way." "(INAUDIBLE)" "Did she say anything?" "Sounded like she was scared?" "No." "She seemed very nice." "She was." "Too nice to die like that, head ripped open." "I ain't never seen anything like it." "We're very sorry." "Y'all stick around." "Need to take your statements." "(SPEAKING JAPANESE)" "(SPEAKING JAPANESE)" "Hiro?" "(IN JAPANESE)" "Hiro?" "(KEYS JINGLING)" "Oh, is that Ensenada?" "Mmm." "Pam Balton called to ask me why you punched Tom McHenry." "I told her you didn't." "Did you?" "Yeah." "Yeah, I punched him." "He knows." "Damn it, I knew it." "You punched a superior officer." "That has to have some kind of repercussions." "He may out rank me, but "superior" is taking it a Iittle too far." "I got one month's suspension, no pay." "Jesus, Matt." "Something happened between me and Tom." "(SCOFFS)" "You slept with him." "(WHISPERING) Yes." "Is it over?" "Yes." "Are we?" "(WHISPERING) I don't know." "(PHONE RINGING)" "Yeah, it's Matt." "He's gone!" "What?" "Ted!" "He escaped." "MAN:" "Watch out!" "Do you hear me?" "Yeah." "Yeah, I heard you." "MAN:" "Hurry up!" "MOHINDER:" "You can run far, you can take your small precautions, but have you really gotten away?" "Can you ever escape?" "Or is the truth that you do not have the strength or cunning to hide from destiny?" "What?" "Nothing." "(SCOFFS)" "But the world is not small." "You are." "And fate can find you anywhere."
