Previously on Heroes.
My life finally makes sense to me.
In the last six weeks, I've saved 53 people.
You can do this.
You can give life.
- Did you get his ability? - Yeah.
It's time to take your life back, Emma.
I used my ability to push one man's memories into another man's head.
And now his consciousness is rattling around up in here.
Someone's done something to you.
Polluted your mind somehow.
You would take me in here, knowing what I've done? Knowing who I am? We're family.
Family accepts.
Tonight, we welcome a new brother into our family.
This is what we call a Screamin' Scavenger Hunt.
You're saying there's another one of you here? You think that they're trying to kill you? Not me.
Becky? What? What's happening? When we got here' Becky was all invisible.
And that rod, like.
went through your body, but it's like You're totally fine now.
Seriously? I just saw the two of you get attacked by a pack of wild dogs.
Oh, my God.
Those water bottles they gave us, I bet they were drugged.
Yeah.
I just saw you two making out.
I think you're right.
Drugged.
Oh.
my God! Let's just keep it between us, though.
We don't want the sisters to know that they got to us.
- Right.
- Exactly.
See? Problem solved.
I thought our problem was a homicidal invisible girl.
- Are you okay? - No.
Actually, I'm not okay.
Becky just tried to kill me.
Eyewitnesses report that the two trains collided, causing the eastbound commuter to jump the tracks.
What What happened? I was on the subway, and then the train There was an accident.
Train went off the tracks, okay? I need you to do me a favour.
I need you to wiggle your toes.
- Can you do that for me? - Yeah.
How's that? It's great.
Try it for me one more time, huh? Great.
It's perfect.
It's gonna be okay.
- You all right? - Yeah.
- You look exhausted.
- Yeah, I'm fine.
Come on, let's go.
What do we got? He's gonna be okay.
He's a little shaken, but he's gonna be fine.
That's the fourth patient that wasn't as bad as we thought.
Maybe we've got luck on our side today.
- Day's not over yet.
- Let's go, people.
We've got more coming in.
Please have your tickets and identification ready.
Tickets and ID, please.
Thank you.
Next.
Thank you, Mr Parkman.
Have a safe flight.
This is ridiculous.
Just give me back my body.
Sucks, doesn't it? Being in the passenger seat of your own life.
- Where the hell are we going anyway? - New York.
New York? What for? The last thing I remember is Peter Petrelli stabbing me in the neck with a syringe.
I figure the Italian Eagle Scout should know what happened next.
Unless, of course, you wanna save us the trouble and just tell me what happened to my body.
- It's not gonna happen.
- Suit yourself.
I don't get to fly very often, you know? Especially not first class.
Well, I'm glad my life savings could broaden your horizons.
Code blue.
Gate 37.
Code blue.
This is not a drill.
Hold the line.
Hold the line.
- What the hell is going on? - Do not move! We found a gun in your bag.
- They found a gun in your bag.
- What is he talking about? Who are you talking to? The socks you thought you were packing this morning, my service revolver.
There is no gun in that bag.
You did not find a gun in that bag.
Yes, we did.
You might be able to control my body, but I will never ever let you control my ability.
Do you hear me? Sucks, doesn't it? This is a mistake.
I can explain.
I'm a cop.
I'm a cop! I can explain.
No! I'm a cop! Hm a cop' I'm sorry, Lydia.
A situation's come up, I don't really have a choice in the matter.
made a bit of a mess.
I'm afraid I'm going to have to clean it up.
"A bit of a mess"? It sounds to me like the Claire Bennet recruitment is a lost cause.
Well, you know me.
I'm the patron saint of lost causes.
This is a lost cause.
- No.
There's got to be something.
- There's nothing.
Nothing about Becky Taylor or why she wants me dead.
- Or why she killed Annie - Right.
Let's not forget that she already succeeded in killing one of your roommates.
Awesome.
I should go to the sorority house.
I can go into her room, go through her stuff.
I'll find answers there.
What if you find Becky instead? Or what if she's here right now? Wanting to kill me.
Invisibly.
There are ways to make her visible.
See? Nothing.
Maybe I should go with you.
No.
No.
Just stay here, it'll be safer.
And don't let anyone in the room until I get back, okay? - Okay.
- You'll be fine.
Lock the door.
Good.
Thank you.
Do you work here? Do you know how to keep pressure on a wound? Good.
Now do not let up.
Can you do that for me? All right.
If you see a nurse or a resident, you tell them that she's prepped for a 4-0 prolene suture, ASAP, okay? Thank you.
I need a quick background check.
Thanks.
If you are not essential personnel, find somewhere else to help.
Pulse is 140, his pressure is dropping.
This one's critical.
Come on, move ii, people.
Out of the way.
- What's his situation? - Isn't this a little backwards? - So, where's his chart? - We'll check his chart after we save him.
What is this, a parade route? Come on, people! Don't crowd me! Do you understand the meaning of seriously injured? 'Cause I'd be happy to give you a hands-on example.
If an old lady like me can move her ass, I'm sure you can, too.
There you go, that's what I'm talking about.
Nice job, guys.
Thank you.
Watch the glass.
Watch the glass! Why would I want to be dressed as a pirate? Because everyone will be dressed as wenches, and you won't stand out.
And don't worry, you can totally be a slutty pirate.
- Hey, Claire.
- Hey Little late for party prep, aren't we? Have you guys seen Becky since she kidnapped us? - Since she what? - Since she kidnapped us.
For the scavenger hunt.
There's gonna be a scavenger hunt? You guys don't remember anything.
Okay.
That was fast.
My daughter calls, I drop everything.
I mean, the luck we're having today, huh? Wow, four and a half hours at the airport trying to talk your way out of that airport jail, only to still be on the No-Fly list.
And now this.
How did I not see that huge chunk of metal in the middle of the road? Maybe I made it so you didn't see it.
Man, I could get used to this.
Playing the bad guy.
The saboteur.
Do you have any upper-body strength at all? Actually, I'm deceptively strong.
Strong enough to stop your ass from getting to New York.
Yeah, I don't think so, Matt.
I'm in control.
You sure about that? You okay, son? Yeah, I'm fine.
My car, not so much.
There's a trick to loosening the stubborn bolts.
- Want me to give it a go? - Be my guest.
I'd appreciate that, Mr Hank.
Ain't nothing.
You hand me that tyre iron over there, please? Sure thing, Hank.
You okay over there? That looked like that could've hurt.
No, I'm fine.
You know, it looks like it's gonna be a long trip to New York.
What? What are you gonna do? You gonna hit me? No.
- Hey, Hank.
- Yeah? Hey.
Hey! You're right.
Deceptively strong.
- You just killed him.
- No, I didn't.
You did.
Okay, let's go over the rules.
I'm pretty clear from our phone conversation what the rules are.
Well, recap for me.
We make all the bad stuff go away.
Like this Becky.
Man on the floor! You get to keep all the good stuff, like your new friend Gretchen.
- Am I right? - Close enough.
I will do my best, Claire, but life isn't always that simple.
I'm gonna get inside the room and see what I can find.
- It's that one on the end.
- Okay.
All right, Claire, why don't you go on back to the dorm, back to your friend? I'm coming with you, Claire.
What? No, no, no, no.
We just went over the rules.
Don't you remember what the rules are? You are not supposed to wipe Gretchen's memory.
She must be a really good friend.
Dad, just please He's not going to erase Gretchen's memory.
He's going with you so that if Becky comes near, she won't be able to stay invisible.
Okay? That's actually a really good plan.
This is not my first rodeo.
Thanks, Dad.
We'll regroup soon.
Come on, Rene.
- He was helping you.
- Exactly.
In his death, he has helped me prove a point about the line.
- What line? - The one I can cross and you can't.
The one that says I can do anything I want, like killing people in cold blood.
- No.
You can't just - The world is my hostage, Matt.
Anybody.
Anytime.
So no more sabotage, okay? Because I'm the one who's in control here.
Do you understand me? I'm sorry, I don't think I heard you.
Yes.
I understand you.
Good.
Hey.
I'm fine.
I'm fine.
I can't.
Too many people need help.
This power keeps draining out of me and then it comes back.
And then it drains out of me again.
Maybe you shouldn't use it any more.
And be ordinary? I gotta get back in there.
Thanks.
You know, they could use your help.
Earlier, I saw you with the suture.
- Where'd you learn how to do that? - Clown college.
Clown college.
Seriously? Medical school.
I dropped out.
You're packing.
Why are you packing? Because I'm going home.
Maybe forever.
No! No, no, no.
You can't do that.
I told you that I was gonna handle it.
With what? Baby powder? That doesn't exactly inspire confidence.
I know.
I know.
And that's why I called my dad.
You're too important.
To me.
I just don't want to lose you.
I'm sorry.
I already booked my flight.
Wait, wait, wait.
You don't understand, okay? This is Rene.
And he can keep Becky from being able to turn invisible.
I'm scared for my life, okay? - I know.
- Do you? Because Becky's after me.
She's not after you because you can't get hurt.
But I can.
Gretchen.
Gretchen, everything's gonna be fine.
Okay? My dad and I have done this a thousand times.
Exactly! This is everyday life for you.
But it's not for me.
I'm just not like you.
Stay with her, please.
Till she gets on the plane.
Can I help you? Possibly.
Hopefully.
I apologise for this awkward introduction.
And my even more awkward agenda.
My name's Samuel, and I'm here looking for my niece, Rebecca.
Becky.
And why would I know where your niece is? Because she told me who you are, Claire.
At least a little bit.
I know you're special.
Like her.
Like me.
I know you're asking yourself right about now, "Who is this guy? "What could he possibly know about me?" Yeah, something like that.
I also know it's very hard to trust anyone in this world, being one of us.
- So why should I trust you? - You shouldn't.
Not until you hear me out.
If you have a moment to listen, I might have some answers for you.
I had a partner like you once.
As I recall, about 10,000 volts of electricity should make you materialise.
And then some.
I don't wanna have to use this.
Why do I find that hard to believe? Just you today? I'm actually hungry enough to eat for two.
If memory serves, the Tahitian pancakes here are really good.
And a Coke.
A Diet Coke.
I say go for the real thing.
Life's too short for artificial sweeteners.
Well, amen to that.
Lynette.
Regular Coke it is.
She's so sweet.
Isn't Lynette so sweet? Funny story, I tried to kill a waitress here once.
You can't kill her.
I'm sorry, did you miss my whole "the world is my hostage" bit earlier? No.
I got it, I got it.
I've done nothing.
And I've kept quiet.
And now, I want you to talk.
Hostages are used to get things that you want.
And I want to know everything.
Exactly howl ended up in your head and where the hell my body is.
No.
It's nice and isolated back there.
Nobody'd ever hear her scream.
Come on.
Stop.
Please.
Come on, stop it.
Okay, fine.
Just tell me what I want to know.
Your choice.
Her life is in your hands.
Did you need something, sweetheart? As a matter of fact, I do.
All right! Fine, fine.
I will tell you anything you wanna know.
Thank you very much.
So you can move the earth? Something like that.
We're all like you.
A family of sorts.
People with extraordinary abilities.
Rebecca came to us when she was still very young So she's not really your niece.
A family is more than blood.
It's about trust.
About love.
About those who embrace you, the real you.
Unconditionally.
Becky pushed my roommate out the window.
Do you embrace that? No, of course not.
But Rebecca is complicated.
Her father was murdered when she was just five years old.
- Okay, but how is that my fault? - It's not.
You're not the one she's after.
It's all about you.
I'm sorry.
Do I know you? You don't remember me at all? Well, I guess you wouldn't.
You never saw me.
But I remember you.
I was five when you came to my house.
When you tried to take me and my dad away.
He told me to stay out of sight.
I'd never seen him so scared.
And then in came my dad? Shooting first, asking questions later.
- Well, I'm sure he had a good reason.
- The reason is we were different.
"Potentially dangerous.
" Your father needed neither warrant nor probable cause.
Not for people like us.
Life is more complicated.
I hid under the bed and I wished Wished that you wouldn't find me.
And my wish came true.
You didn't see me.
Your ability manifested.
I kept making wishes.
That the whole night had never happened, for my dad to come back.
I have spent my entire life wondering why I could make a wish and save myself, but not him.
I thought perhaps Becky had moved past it, but - She came to get revenge on him.
- Through you.
And then when I found out that you had a daughter, I stopped making wishes and I made a promise.
I'm gonna take away all of the dreams that you had for her, just like you did to me.
I'm sorry about your father.
I take responsibility for that.
But you're not going to hurt my daughter.
I'm gonna hurt you both.
Becky, I picked up your costume.
- Hi.
What are you doing in here? - Just Looking for someone.
I guess she's gone.
Excuse me.
I am truly sorry for what happened to your roommate.
Both of them.
But it was good of you to send the other away.
I didn't send her away.
She left.
Well, it's a slanted perspective to see the extraordinary through ordinary eyes.
Fear is easier than understanding.
So, how do you deal with it? By not having to deal with it.
I simply surrounded myself with people who, by definition, are like me.
It's a whole lot easier for someone like you to understand you.
Which is why I came to you and not your father.
We both know exactly what he would do in this situation.
No, tell me.
What would Bennet do? I don't mean you any harm, I swear.
He said he was Becky's uncle.
You were stalling.
You kept me talking.
You seem to like to talk.
You actually think that I would trust you over my dad? I just ran into your niece.
She's not all there, is she? Rebecca is a very disturbed girl but in all fairness, you had a hand in that.
A responsibility.
Okay, let's talk responsibility.
What do you know about this? What is that? Every time I see that compass, it comes with a dead body.
- First was Danko's - Agent Danko killed my brother.
He started all this.
We didn't want any bloodshed.
Well, you forgot to tell that to your knife-wielding friend who sliced my guts open.
In the wrong hands, this compass could mean trouble for my family.
We just need to stay hidden.
From who? Well, for starters, you.
No of fence, sir, but you have a reputation for scorching earth to get to people like me.
Please, I just need to find Rebecca and get her some help.
And I want some answers.
Help! Somebody help! - She's not breathing.
- Let's get her to the ER.
No time.
It's a pneumothorax.
I can do this.
- Thoracotomy kit.
- Okay.
- Here you go.
- Take over.
Hey.
Hey, sweetheart.
You're gonna be okay, all right? You're gonna be okay.
You did it.
You really should watch how you treat us in front of your daughter.
After all, she's like me.
You really ought to watch what you say to my daughter.
Don't blame your father.
He really doesn't understand us.
Get in the car.
Rebecca, no! No.
Come on.
- Dad, don't! - Look out! Dad, no! I'm so sorry.
You all right? I'm sorry.
Okay, here's the truth.
After Peter took you down' I pushed Nathan's memories into your mind.
I made your body think that it was him.
Your shape-shifting took care of the rest.
I had never done this before.
I thought that I was pushing all of Sylar out of that body.
I had no idea that all of it would stay with me.
Well, that's just crazy.
Just the cheque, please, Lynette.
Thank you.
Clearly, you didn't decide to do this on your own.
Who else was involved? - Mama Petrelli, right? Who else? - Bennet.
Everyone else thinks you're dead.
Well I was off to see the wrong brother.
I gotta go find Nathan.
Get my body back.
And then what are you gonna do? Then I'm gonna kill every single person even remotely involved.
You should really pay more attention to what you're doodling on a napkin.
Police! Freeze.
- What the hell are you doing? - I'm crossing that line.
You told me that I'm not man enough to take a life.
Well, you know what? You're wrong.
'Cause I'm gonna take yours.
You're an idiot.
You'll die with me.
Yeah.
I know.
Gun! I'm sorry I pushed you.
- It's okay, I don't bruise easy.
- No.
You don't, do you? Hey.
You're amazing.
You know that? I think you mean extraordinary.
I want you to have everything.
You deserve it.
The social life.
The education.
The white picket fence.
All of it.
Well, as you said, sometimes, life just isn't that simple.
Good night.
Good night, Claire-bear.
Who's that? My nephew, Christopher.
He drowned.
I was babysitting, and I got distracted for a moment.
I didn't hear him.
I tried to revive him.
It was right before my second year of residency.
That's why you dropped out.
Yeah.
Megan wanted you to have that.
She said it's only for very special people.
Special? I couldn't save him.
But you saved her.
You saved me.
Thank you.
Are you gonna go back to school? Go be a doctor? Can you see the colours? No.
I don't have that power any more.
But we could still play, if you like.
He's still asystole.
All right, sen.
Clear.
I'm sorry I had to do that to you.
I'm sorry that I messed things up with Claire.
I just got impatient.
Sloppy.
Don't worry.
It might not have been the plan as conceived, but I think Claire Bennet's right where we want her to be.
Look, when I asked you to do this, I promised you revenge.
And you'll still have it.
- We have a problem.
A big problem.
- What? Sylar, he's gone.
Nathan, what are you - What are you doing? - Thank God.
- What's going on? - I think I'm in trouble, Pete.
