Character History
How to Stop an Exploding Man
When Matt Parkman asks Molly how her power works, she states that she thinks of someone in her mind and then pinpoints their location on a map. Matt asks whether she can find anyone in the world just by thinking about them, to which she hesitantly responds that she can find "almost anyone", there's one that she can't. Parkman asks, "is it someone bad, Molly, like the boogeyman?", and she hesitantly responds, "No, he's a lot worse." When Matt asks Molly why she doesn't want to find him, Molly replies in a terrified whisper, "'Cause when I think about him, he can see me."
Four Months Later
When Miss Gerber tells Matt that Molly has mentioned having some terrible nightmares, she shows him some drawings that Molly drew. Each picture depicts eyes alongside the symbol. Later that night while Molly restlessly slept, Matt checks in on Molly, and hears her thoughts. Amongst these thoughts is a male voice, saying "I can see you." When Molly wakes up with a scream, Matt asks her to tell him where the person is, and Molly tells Matt that if she did, the man would kill Matt.
The Kindness of Strangers
After Matt makes a discovery about his father, he asks Molly to find him. When Matt shows Molly a picture, she backs off and asks him to get it away. She states that Matt's father is "the nightmare man." Later that night, Matt is desperate to ask Molly to find him, but Mohinder forbids it. Molly volunteers herself however, and upon finding his location, becomes scared because he could see her. She screams, then blacks out. Matt reads her mind, and notices she is screaming "Help me, Matt!"
