"Previously on Heroes..." "I'm going home." "I'm scared for my life, okay?" " I know." " Do you?" "I'm just not like you." "And this thing here, just pretend it never happened, okay?" "I'm haitianing you." "We're pretending that we've never been to the Burnt Toast Diner." "I came to warn you{\, peter}." "You need to know the truth." "The answer you seek is here." " What do you got?" " {\It's a }A body." " What is it?" " It's me." "One touch, Nathan, and it's over." "{ o, d}Don't touch him." "You touch him." "He's got my power." " His mind will go back into his body." " Take my hand now." "Do it now." " I said, get away." " Back away." "I need you to go back eight weeks,{\, Hiro,} to a motel room in Texas." "To save his life?" "No, to save that film before he destroyed it." "Once you return, deliver it to me, your sweet Charlie will be set free." "I have your film." "Now I want Charlie." "{\pos(230,240)}Soon." "{\pos(285,240)}This is entry number four." "{\pos(270,210)}When two or more of these forces are proximate," "{\pos(270,210)}they amplify exponentially," "{\pos(210,250)}like a kind of gravity or magnetism." "{\pos(210,250)}An abnormal spike in seismic activity as of late appears to be" "{\pos(210,250)}emanating from one of the individuals being held here." " A pregnant woman." " Doctor!" " He's crowning." " And I fear..." "I fear that this child may indeed..." "I'm coming." "It's okay." "It's okay." "Butterfly man, open up." "You can't avoid me." "I can see you in there." "Open up!" "You are in there, I know!" "Come out!" "Butterfly man!" "Hiro, is that you making all that noise?" "I've done what you asked." "Now,{\*please} tell me where and when you put Charlie." "It's beautiful out, isn't it?" "Makes a man glad to be alive." "It feels poetic that today is the day we give thanks." "Stop ignoring me, butterfly man." "I want Charlie." "{\And }You will have her." "But there are more pressing matters to discuss." "That film that you retrieved, it's brought everything into focus." "I discovered the truth about my destiny." "Our destiny." " Give me Charlie." " Sorry." "Not yet." "{\*Feeling brave, Samurai warrior?" "}" "There's a nice sharp ax right over there." "Go on." "Freeze time." "Chop me into bits." "No, that's right." "You can't." "'cause if you kill me, you'll never find Charlie." "I'm your savior, Hiro." "You just don't know it yet." "Now go help set the table." "And smile." "It's Thanksgiving." " So when should I expect you?" " Oh, I don't know." "{\Well, }You've got to come." "Happy Thanksgiving." "I just don't know that I'm in the mood." "Come on." "You can invite Gretchen." "Actually, I can't." "She moved all the way across campus." "I'm sorry to hear that." "And that's my fault, isn't it?" "It's okay." "It wasn't gonna work out anyway." "So I guess it's official." "I'm a social pariah." "And I haven't helped things much." "I want to make it up to you, starting with a real Bennet family" "Thanksgiving dinner..." "Turkey, trimmings, the whole thing." "What do you say?" "And since when do you cook?" "Well, you know, I'm learning as I go." "Is that a yes?" "I don't know." "Is Lyle coming?" "No, he sends his regrets." "He can't get away from school." "Don't make me be alone with your mother and Doug." "She's bringing the new boyfriend?" "{\Oh, }She never goes anywhere without him." "It would mean a lot to me{\, Claire}." "Okay." "There's something I've been meaning to talk to you about anyway." "Great, I'll see you at 4:30." "Don't be late." "Love you." " Oh, my God." " Lauren." "Of all the supermarkets in all the towns in all the world." " It's great to see you." " You too." "Well, what are you doing in Washington?" "Well, after Primatech exploded, I was kind of unemployed." "CIA seemed like the obvious choice." "And you?" "You know, a little bit of this, a little bit of that." " All right." " Mostly that." " I got a place in Dupont circle." " Nice." "What brings you to this side of town?" "These yams." "These canned yams." "I love them, and I can't get 'em anywhere else." "Didn't peg you for a yam man." "Oh, yeah, big yam man." "You're stalking me, aren't you?" "Yes, but I am also cooking Thanksgiving dinner for my daughter and my ex-wife." "Ex-wife." "Yes." "Sandra left me." "Can't say as I really blame her, but we're still on good terms." "I mean, hence the oversized bird." "Are you having Thanksgiving on Christmas?" "Because this frozen beast is not gonna thaw until tomorrow." "You need one of those already-cooked birds." "Follow me." "Thanks." "I appreciate it." "'cause I'm not exactly an expert in... life skills." "How many people?" "Four." "Five, if you would like to join us." "That is, if you don't already have plans." "And by the way you're sizing up my single-serve turkey pot pie, you've already surmised that I don't have plans." "It would be great to catch up." "Happy Thanksgiving." "Mom..." "Please, set up in there, boys." "What is this?" " Where's your brother, honey?" " That's a good question." "Would you please put these in a bowl for me?" "We need to talk." "{\*Yes,}I know." "That's what Thanksgiving's all about." "Just families sharing our lives." "Thank you, gentlemen." "Okay, and please remember to stir some milk into that." "That's the way your brother likes it." "I went to a storage unit yesterday{\, mom}." "Rented out to you." "Saw Nathan's dead body." "Rene told you about that." "Well, it was not your brother's body you saw." "It was a shape-shifter posing as your brother." "It's the worst kind of identity theft." "And he had to be stopped, and then we had to store him away discreetly." "You can imagine if the press had gotten wind." "Matt {\Parkman }also said that..." "Matt Parkman said what?" "Officer Parkman is unbalanced." "Suicidal, last I heard." "Because Sylar's in his head?" "Is that right?" "What did you do, ma?" "Is my brother really dead?" "Answer him, mom." "We'd all like to hear that one." "Happy Thanksgiving, Nathan." "So, if you two will just help me set the table, we will sit down like a family and we will discuss everything." "Let go of me, Nathan." "Answer him." "It's Thanksgiving, and you are my family." "And we will sit down like a family as we do every year, or I will leave here, and you will never hear from me again." "Your choice." " Hello." " Hey." "Happy Thanksgiving." "Come on in." "Something smells good." "Look at this place." "{\pos(192,230)}Are you sure this is your apartment?" "We clean up good." "So what can I get you?" "Some sparkling cider?" "{\pos(192,230)}No, I'm all right, but before everyone gets here," "{\pos(192,230)}I do want to talk to you about something." "{\pos(192,230)}{\Okay, }Just let me check the gravy first, okay?" "{\pos(192,230)}Oh, I got that." "Claire, you remember Lauren?" "She worked with me at primatech." "{\pos(192,230)}Hi." "You're all grown-up." "You look beautiful." "{\pos(192,230)}It's okay." "I've got this, Wolfgang." "{\pos(192,230)}Thanks." "{\pos(192,230)}Does mom know you brought a date?" "{\pos(192,230)}No, Lauren's not a date." "She's an old friend." "She's helping me cook." "{\pos(192,230)}She is so a date." " You should have told mom." " Your mother will understand." "We're a complex, modern family, and... {\pos(192,230)}She's got Doug." "So what did you want to talk about?" "{\pos(192,220)}Hold that thought." " Happy Thanksgiving." " You too." "Good boy." "{\pos(192,230)}Hey, Noah." "Happy Thanksgiving." "{\pos(192,230)}" " A host gift." " Thanks, Doug." "{\pos(192,230)}Come on in." "{\pos(192,230)}" " Hi." " How are you?" "{\pos(192,230)}Good." "{\pos(192,230)}Who's your little friend?" "{\pos(192,230)}Dame Penelope Jean Lovegood III." "{\pos(192,230)}But you can call her Ms. Lovegood." "{\pos(192,230)}Can't she, snookums?" "Yes, she can." "Yes, she can." "{\pos(192,230)}Claire, you remember Doug." "Enchanté." "Dinner's ready{\, everyone}." "You hired a cook?" "No, that's Lauren." "{\pos(230,260)}Mistaken for a domestic." "That certainly breaks the ice." "Lauren Gilmore." "It's nice to finally meet you, Sandra." "{\pos(260,260)}Okay." "Let's eat." "You brought a date?" "That's Lauren." "Okay." "Who's hungry?" "{\pos(260,260)}Got lots to eat." "Come on." "Not a fan of Thanksgiving?" "I'm from japan." "{\pos(250,230)}We celebrate Kinro Kansha, not Thanksgiving." "{\pos(220,210)}What's the matter{\, hiro}?" "You can talk to me." "We're family." "{\pos(220,210)}I'm not part of this family." "I'm a prisoner." " No one's a prisoner here." " Samuel broke his promise." "{\pos(220,210)}I fixed the past, but he won't give me back Charlie." "He's a liar and an evil man." "{\pos(270,270)}If the time traveler fixed the past, where's Joseph?" "That's a good question." "You got a minute, Hiro?" "Come inside." "We need to talk." "{\pos(192,210)}Tell me, what did you do when you fixed the past for Samuel?" "I'm sorry." "I cannot say." "Samuel might get mad, and Charlie's at stake." "I understand." "I have to change for dinner." "You stay a minute, will you?" "You know, Hiro, we can help each other." " I could use my ability." " Really?" "I can be inside of your soul." "We can be... as one." "Painted lady," "I think you are trying to seduce me." "But you should know my heart belongs to Charlie." "I'm sorry..." "If I'm making you uncomfortable." "{\*I can help you.}" "But..." "I need contact, closeness to make this work." "Of course." "Every ability has a different... set of rules." "I can feel what you feel, Hiro." "Touch me." "You want Charlie back desperately." "And now Samuel's forcing you to work for him." "Why didn't he have you save his brother Joseph?" "I don't know." "You should ask Samuel." "He'll never tell me." "You need to take me back." "Eight weeks ago, when a man{\*from the government} came to the carnival and murdered Joseph." " I don't think I should..." " Please." "I need to know the truth." "You made us time travel." "We must go back." " Is that the man that killed Joseph?" " No, that's Dr. Suresh." " We need to talk." " Joseph?" " I'm behind on my chores." " Forget the chores." "This is not good." "All right, brother." "But not here." "Is this it?" "Is this the night that Joseph gets murdered?" "I don't know." "But it is very dangerous to be here." "We must go before we step on a..." "Butterfly." "Okay, mom, you got us here, sitting, just like you wanted." "So talk." "Peter, where are your manners?" "Nathan, would you please say grace?" "It's Thanksgiving, Nathan." "It's the one day we should express our gratitude." "What do I have to be grateful for?" "I'm dead." "He knows it." "You know it." "Why don't you tell us why and put us all out of our misery?" "Tell us." "I don't expect you to understand or approve of the decision I made, but I hope you can keep an open mind and not condemn it." "Sylar was gonna kill the president, and you two had flown off to stop him at that hotel in Washington." "And I had a dream about you, Nathan." "I saw you fighting for your life." "I also saw Matt Parkman save you." "But I panicked and I went and found him, and I dragged him to the hotel." " But by the time we got there..." " I was already dead." "I made Matt Parkman do it." "This is the part where I ask you to forgive me." "So that body that we saw..." "That was Nathan." "Technically... yes." "But... as far as the world is concerned, Nathan is still alive." "Yeah, but I'm not me." "It's your mind." "They are your memories." "You look exactly the same." "You are Nathan Petrelli." "You are my son." "You're Peter's brother." "And it's been this way for months." "Just because you know the truth, nothing has to change." "We are still a family." "To us." "I would like to propose a toast to all of you for being here on this my first Thanksgiving in this apartment, my first Thanksgiving I've ever hosted." "I..." "And that's especially to Lauren." "Without her, we would all be eating Japanese takeout right now." "So Sandra, how did you and Doug meet?" " May I?" " Please." "It was love at first sight." "For Mr. Muggles and Ms. Lovegood, that is." "We met at the groomer." "My little angel wouldn't stop barking until they put her cage right next to his, am I right{\*, Sandy}?" "It's true." "Nasty." " Dougy's allergic." " Legume-intolerant." "So how did the two of you meet?" "Well," "Lauren and I used to work together at Primatech." "And we... we recently reconnected." "{\*Yeah,}This morning, actually." "Frozen food aisle." "I troll the place for eligible men." "Primatech." "Is that the paper company or that other thing?" "You know about that other thing?" "Yes, dear." "A memory can be erased only so many times." "So you worked closely then?" " It wasn't like that, you know." " Or am I... stumbling onto something that I'm not supposed to remember?" "You're not stumbling onto anything." "I think we should all just enjoy our Thanksgiving dinner." "You know, in my family, on Thanksgiving, we used to go around the table and everyone would say what they were thankful for." "Okay, I'll go first." "I am thankful for the two beautiful women in my life..." "Ms. Lovegood and my beautiful Sandy." "Nice." "I am thankful that my daughter Claire decided to come for Thanksgiving." "It would not be the same without her." "I'll second that." "I'm thankful for canned yams." "How about you, Claire?" "I know that I should be thankful, but I'm just not feeling it right now." "Is everything okay?" "Her roommate moved out." "Why on earth would she do that?" "You're so likable." "Doug, you don't know anything about me." "What?" "You want to talk about it right now?" "Fine." "I'm thinking about dropping out of school." "My family..." "This will surely be a Thanksgiving..." "to remember." "Where's Lydia?" "Not {\*really}sure." "Amanda, sweetheart, where's your mother?" "I think she went to go find the Japanese man." "Did she now?" "Happy Thanksgiving." "That man from India, he wasn't writing a book." "He wanted to talk about me." "You sent me away, but I stayed, I listened, I heard everything." " How long have you been lying to me{\, huh}?" " You need to calm down, brother." "Then stop controlling me." " Stop manipulating my emotions." " Fine." "You want me to let go." "I will." "My whole life, you've kept me under your thumb." "Why?" "Because you're dangerous{\, Samuel}." "What's that supposed to mean?" " Oh, never mind." " No, tell me what you meant." "You can move the earth{\, Samuel}." "But it's more than that." "Cities." "Mountains." "You have the power to kill millions." "I can't let that happen." "I always thought I was missing out on something." "Some untapped potential." "Just tell me how." "How can I be that powerful?" "I've already said too much." "You think I wanted this life?" "You had to be controlled." "From the day you were born," "I gave up everything to watch over you." "Let me free you of that burden." "Show me the film." "Let me learn what I am." " Take responsibility for myself." " Too late." "I told Dr. Suresh to burn it." "Why would you do that?" "You can never know the truth." "I've made arrangements." "A man from the government is coming to take you in." "I gave him a compass." "You've betrayed me." "My entire life, you've betrayed me." "I'm still your brother." "I love you." "God, what have I done?" "What have I done?" "He's coming." "He's coming." "I know that you guys are freaking out, but I don't think college is where I'm supposed to be." "Is this about Gretchen?" "Because that is one relationship." "Yeah, it is about Gretchen." "And it's about Becky," " and {\it's about }everything that's happened." " Who's Becky?" "Mom, look, I just don't think that I belong in college." "{\*And}Where do you think you belong, or have you even thought about it yet?" "Maybe I'll go for a year abroad." "Maybe I'll go backpack through Europe." "A job." "I just need to find somewhere where I fit in, where I could be myself." "And the $40,000 I just gave to the school, where {\do you think }that should go?" "I don't know{\, dad}." "Where'd it come from?" "This is about what that guy Samuel said{\*right}?" "Who is Samuel?" "What is going on?" " Maybe it is." " How could you even consider" " listening to him?" " {\What is happening?" "}What did your father do?" "This is not about dad." "It's about me." "I can't lie anymore." "I'm a freak, and people don't like freaks." " Can I just interject something here?" " No!" "{\I think that }We should all just take a deep breath." "All I was gonna say is that what Claire is feeling is perfectly normal." "I mean, we've all felt like we didn't fit in at one point or another in our lives." "Heck, growing up and discovering I had a penchant for dog breeding, you think I had any friends?" "Trust me, Claire, this will all blow over." "Really?" "Is it, Doug?" "Do you think that this is going to blow over?" "What are you doing?" "Jeez." "How's that for normal?" "Great." "{\fad(500,500)}{\PRESENT DAY}" "Get more wine." " I have to tell them." " No." "You can't say anything." "If someone finds out I took you to the past, I will never see Charlie again.{\césure?" "}" "I have something special." "I'll be right back." " Please." " I'm sorry, Hiro." "But we have to stand up to him." "Some things are just too important." "Where you been, friend?" "I got lost." "Well, now you're found." "Something going on over here?" "Something in your hair." "Well, then, you must be starved." "Join me." "Make yourself useful." "Pass the chair, will you?" "Guess he's never seen her regen before." " So some dinner, huh?" " Par for the course." "Especially when it comes to my ex-husband." "I don't know what's going on between him and Claire." "{\*Well,}I don't know either," "{\*But}I think that Thanksgiving dinner was just his way of letting Claire know that she has a family that loves her." "Nothing wrong with that." "I thought you gave up all this." "Yeah, so did I." "And then" "I come across this compass, which almost gets me killed." "It turns out it belongs to the strange man who shows up in my daughter's dorm room threatening the normal life she so desperately wants." "Well, maybe it's impossible." "Maybe I'm just not supposed to have a normal life." "It sounds like you're giving up." "Why did you cut yourself?" "I don't know." "Maybe... because you guys all think that you know what it's like to be me, but you don't." "How could you possibly?" "I have to lie to everyone." "Otherwise, they faint." "I know that it has been hard, and I know that I have caused you pain, but I'm concerned about you, Claire." "These are not good people." "They're dangerous." "You just have to trust me on this." "Would you stop treating me like I'm a child?" "Then stop acting like one." "Let me get this." " Sorry I'm late." " Hey, come on in." "Who's ready for pie?" "Is there a problem, mom?" "Some family." "You look at me, you don't see your son." "You see the man who killed your son." "Don't be silly." "You don't see your brother." "Well, that's because I'm not your brother." "Guess again." "God, Sylar's in there with you, isn't he?" "We never should have gone to Texas, Pete." "It feels good to finally be me again." "What's for dinner?" "I'm starved." "You know what makes this meal truly special?" "It's knowing that each and every one of you had a hand in making it happen." "Just as we've had a hand in each other's lives, in our shared destiny." "Heaven." "We have depended on each other for so long." "Through good times and bad." "But tonight, we should be especially thankful." "The future... is here." "And it will be greater than my brother{\*Joseph} could ever have imagined." "But I can't tell you about it yet." "Not while there's a traitor in our midst." "I just learned that the person who killed my brother is here," "sitting at this table." "It's time we all knew the truth, isn't it?" "Tell them, Samuel." "You murdered Joseph." "The time traveler saw it." "Really?" "Is that what you saw, Hiro?" "I'm sorry." "I have to think about Charlie." " I didn't see anything." " We know what you did." "Why so angry, Edgar?" "Is it because you've done something... shameful?" "You killed Joseph, didn't you?" "You betrayed us to the government." "And when Joseph found out, you killed him." "You lying bastard." "What have you done?" "I saved your life." "Look." "Thanks." " I'm gonna finish him." " No, you can't hurt him." "He's the only one who knows where Charlie is." "He killed Joseph." "I know, but this is not the time for revenge." "Sometimes a hero has to run away to live to fight another day." "We will defeat him." "I promise you." "I'll hold you to that." "Only the guilty turn tail and run." "Edgar is gone." "Good riddance." "I feel like I haven't eaten in months." "You think that's some kind of existential soul thing?" "You have a soul?" "Come on, buddy." "That's the best you got?" "No big speeches about hope?" "Triumph of the human spirit?" "Why don't you let me out of this chair and find out?" "And you..." "You have raised the evil incarnate bar to an entirely new level." "Thank you..." "For giving me something to strive for." "All this talk of... souls and... spirits sends my head spinning." "I am not... a religious man." "But... there is one thing I do believe in." "Blood." "Time to carve the turkey." "Get away from her." "What's happening?" "It's Nathan." "He's in there." "Come on, fight him, Nathan." "{\*Come on,}Fight him." "Nathan's dead." "No, he isn't." "He's still in you." "His spirit and his mind are fighting for his family." "Come on, Nathan!" "Nathan, fight him." "What have you done to me?" " Thanks." " I'm so sorry." "It's okay." "So my dad called you?" "Yeah, well, he said you were feeling low, and he knew I was feeling low, so..." "How's your new roommate?" "Fine." "Dull." "Actually, it's awful." "No one's tried to kill me for days now." "And she's a slob." "Well, you know, the other side of the room is still available." "Sorry." "You're right." "I don't know... why you would ever want to move in with me again." "Maybe because of all the people that I've met in college so far, you're the only one who's ever made any sense to me." "Now see, I told you you were gonna have fun." " What do you think about Christmas?" " How about a movie?" "Much better." "Should I give you my number or were you just planning" " on stalking me in the produce aisle?" " Canned goods I think it was." "My home number is on the back." "Use it." " Happy Thanksgiving." " You too." "Good night, ladies." "Nice meeting you." "We're leaving, Claire." "Happy Thanksgiving." "Sorry about Doug." "He's fine." "I told him he ate a peanut." "He's not the sharpest tack, but he's a good man." "Never a dull moment, Noah." " Not if I can help it." " Thank you." "I'm gonna go wait in the car." " Thanks for the invite, Mr. Bennet." " Anytime." "I guess... "I'm sorry" doesn't begin to cover it?" "No, it's not your fault." "I'm just..." "I know{\*, I know}." "You've got a lot to figure out." "I just want you to take your time and really think about your choices, because you do have choices." " You're absolutely right." " So you're going back to school?" "Yeah, classes start Monday, and I will be there." "{\*That's }Great news." " Love you." " Love you." "And thank you for inviting Gretchen." "I wasn't overreaching?" "No, it was actually the perfect dad thing to do." "Next Thanksgiving, your place." "It's a date." "Ready to head back?" "Actually, no." "We have a couple days off before classes start, and..." "I want to find out where this leads." "Where'd you get that?" "I stole it from my dad." "He said I had choices." "And I want to know what they are." "And this is going to lead me to 'em." "A compass?" " Okay." " You up for an adventure?" "It's okay if you're not." "I understand." "I mean..." "We might run into Becky there." "Yeah, she's not one of my favorite people." "But you are." "So which way?" "Take a right." "You saved Edgar." "How honorable." "Of course, when you betray me, you put Charlie in danger." "Your brother was right." "You are powerful." "But I am powerful too." "I'll make it so you never see her again." "You won't do that." "You still need me." "So... you tell me exactly when and where Charlie is, or I am leaving." "And you will be the one who is lost." "I like this." "Little man standing up for himself." "But you don't actually think I'd ever let you leave, do you?" " You don't have a choice." " I always have a choice." "How do you feel, Hiro?" "{\Must rescue Waston...} {\Beam me up, Scotty...}" "What have you done?" "I'm gonna find him, and I'm gonna bring him back, mom." "It's over." "It isn't possible anymore." "The one thing I know, the one thing I can count on since all this started, is that anything is possible." "It's Sylar." "Nobody wants him dead more than me." "You want to know what I want even more?" "My brother alive." "I'll find a way." "{\fad(500,500)}{\TO BE CONTINUED}"
