| Hiro's scrambled brain leads him on a weird, wonderful trip to Florida. |

Summary
Samuel has Damian affect Hiro's memory. When Hiro recovers, he claims that he must save "Watson" and teleports away. He arrives in what he believes is an enchanted world but is actually Florida. Hiro looks around, seeing many classical and original characters. He then finds a poster, asking for help rescuing a dog. However, in Hiro's mind, the poster is calling for someone to rescue a fair maiden. Hiro goes to what he believes is an enchanted forest, but what is actually a botanical garden. A "mushroom man", who is in fact the forest ranger, tells Hiro where the fair maiden is and Hiro runs to rescue her. He finds a boy and his dog, whom he perceives as an ugly orc and a beautiful princess. Zelda's owner tells Hiro that everything is alright and Hiro believes him, wondering why he was sent to Florida. He sees the "Asylum" and watches as two aliens escort a crazy man. Hiro then says that he must save "Watson", who is revealed to be Mohinder Suresh.
