About

Lizards

While Bob occupies the Company chairperson's office, he keeps a cello on the side of the room.

Ink

Emma notices a cellist playing in Central Park and sees the sound as glowing red energy. When the cellist leaves, she goes over to touch the cello. When she plucks at a string, she sees more lights. She starts playing and generating a light show that only she can see; she performs beautifully as everyone in the park looks on, including Peter. He smiles at her as she realizes what she's done, hands the bow to the cellist, and runs off.

Hysterical Blindness

Edgar moves a large blue cello container through the carnival.

Emma returns to her apartment and finds a cello there in a large blue box with the Sullivan Bros. Carnival logo on it. She picks it up and starts to play again. As Emma plays, she starts to become emotional, unintentionally manipulating the sound from the cello she's playing with a slicing motion, damaging the wall of her home.

Tabula Rasa

Emma asks Peter if he sent a cello to her apartment. Peter answers that he didn't.

In a test of her powers, Emma uses the cello to summon Peter to her apartment similar to what she did with Ian. It works and Peter arrives. Once there Emma shows him the cello and once he sees the compass on it, he asks about it due to the compass tattoo on his arm put there by Lydia. Later, Peter has a dream in which Emma is playing the cello while upset and crying with people screaming in the background before Sylar comes in and offers his help. As a result of this dream, Peter destroys the cello which causes Emma to angrily order him out and cry over the destroyed cello.

Vanessa plays the cello with the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra.
