About
Genesis
At Yamagato Industries, Hiro tells a skeptical Ando that it was his powers that must have made the subway train 14 seconds late that morning. After work, Hiro and Ando discuss the ability to manipulate space and time on the escalator of the subway station. Later, Hiro stands in a subway car and notices a poster advertising New York City. He closes his eyes to concentrate, and the subway clock begins to change. Suddenly, he's in Times Square.
Don't Look Back
Hiro stands in the train and teleports to New York. After witnessing the explosion, Hiro teleports back to the subway in Tokyo.
Graphic Novel:The Crane
Hiro teleports back to the subway. He is happily surprised to find himself alive.
Trivia
- The poster of New York City that spurs Hiro to think of the city is the same poster that hangs on the warehouse door at Jittetsu Arms.
- For filming, the Los Angeles Red Line is used in place of the Tokyo subway. In the commentary for the unaired pilot, Tim Kring said that they simply put some Japanese signage up in an American train car then filled it with extras who looked like they would belong in a Japanese subway. They even were specific about details like the fact that the handrails on Japanese subways swing rather than stay stationary.
