At Peter's apartment, Angela is sorting through Peter's possessions when Nathan arrives. He blames her for Peter's presumed death, and denounces her as evil. As she leaves the apartment, she discovers a photograph, defaced with a red symbol.
Later, she meets with Kaito Nakamura on Charles Deveaux's rooftop, and they discuss the threats that have been made on their lives. Kaito remarks that Mr. Petrelli, Linderman and Charles Deveaux were all dead, and that he and Angela appear to be next. Angela leaves.
She is being interrogated by Matt Parkman about the relation between her and Kaito, when she is left alone in a room briefly. During this time, screams are heard from the room, the electricity goes out, and she is found dead on the ground by [[[Nathan]]].
"What could you possibly need so bad that you had to steal it? Never mind. I don't wanna know."
"Socks."
"I never kid about family brunch."
- - Angela (to Peter) (Nothing to Hide)
Notes
- Angela speaks French: «Au moins maintenant elle sera en sécurité. Mais pas grâce à vous!», which means : "At least now she's safe, no thanks to you!" (Parasite)
Trivia
- In the commentary for How to Stop an Exploding Man, Tim Kring said he wanted to name Angela's character in honor of "Mrs. Iselin" from The Manchurian Candidate. However, Tim couldn't remember the character's name, so he named Mrs. Petrelli after the actress who portrayed "Mrs. Iselin"--Angela Lansbury.
- In the script for the unaired pilot, Angela was named "Alice Campbell", a 76-year-old woman.
- In an interview with TV Guide, Christine Rose said on her character, "Oh, I think she's just misunderstood and misguided! I have to play her with the intent that she's good and that she's a nurturer… yet a nurturer who's not averse to violence." On her anger towards Nathan in Four Months Later, she said "Not only did Nathan destroy all her plans that had been building up for decades, she blames him for killing her beloved son Peter. It's all blown up in her face. They've got me doing monologue after monologue like Lear, just ranting and raving." On the older generation of heroes that Angela belongs to, Rose said "I still have no idea about the origins of this group. I like to think we all met up at Woodstock in the '60s and it was there that we found out about our powers. We sprang from that generation that wanted to save the world. And, well, just look at it now — it's all falling apart. Despite their best intentions, hell happened to Angela and her friends. She had especially wanted to save Peter from that hell, and her granddaughter Claire, too. But now she's powerless. Her friends and family are dying, she's alone and very vulnerable… and then it goes downhill from there." [1]
