Slow Burn

	Chapter 1: Step Right Up Release Date: 28 September 2009 Now living at the Sullivan Bros. Carnival, Gail and Chris Bowman differ on their opinions of their new home. Gail trusts the Carnival and becomes friends with Lydia, who helps her decide what to make of an offer that Samuel made while Chris decides to snoop around. He meets Bo LoFontaine, a musician from New Orleans who is hiding something from his fellow carnies. After being attacked by Edgar, Chris becomes certain that they are not safe at the Carnival.
	Chapter 2: Little Ember Release Date: 6 October 2009 While her parents adjust to the Carnival in different ways, Jennie Bowman is thrilled that she is living in a place where she can be herself. One night, when she hears her parents fighting, Jennie goes to try and find some answers. She meets up with her friends, who are all watching Aiden hover. Later, she comforts Lydia and meets a young girl called Deeana. Deeana gives Jennie a phone to mark their friendship but it is quickly removed by a mysterious carny who frightens young Jennie. He returns the phone and gives a message to the Bowman family. He knows who they are. And he knows what they did to Mary Krause.
	Chapter 3: The Watcher Release Date: 13 October 2009 Still dealing with the knowledge that someone knows what they did to Mary Krause, Chris and Gail finally agree that while the carnival may be a haven for evolved humans, they are not safe. Gail searches through the side shows for the mysterious Watcher and is startled when he finds her instead. She demands to know who he is but he instead gives her a warning about her husband. Meanwhile, Chris learns more about Bo's past and when Gail finds him, they receive their first mission from the Watcher. While spying on Samuel and Edgar, the couple are caught by Caleb and they come face to face with Samuel himself.
	Chapter 4: Assignments Release Date: 20 October 2009 Rather than punish the two intruders, Samuel recruits them to his cause. He sends Gail out with Edgar to the Mojave Desert, where Gail meets up with John. John, Shard and Glade decline Gail's offer to join the carnival and Gail and Edgar return home. Meanwhile, Chris meets with The Watcher, who gives him a mission to complete. Chris finds Aviv and learns that the strongman is losing control over his ability. Chris and Gail both return home and meet up with Jennie, who has had a "normal" day. Samuel then appears and asks the family to go and make friends with a new target: Tracy Strauss.

Notes

• The first chapter of Slow Burn was released on September 28, 2009.
• Slow Burn marked the beginning of "tagged media", a new format that integrates the iStory, webisodes, and other media. Specifically, a thirty-second commercial is shown during each episode. Then, an expanded version of the commercial is found at NBC.com. Directly below that is the introduction of the iStory. The iStory then has links to various other media, including Heroes:Survival, and an interactive carnival game.
