Character History
Genesis
Simone visits her ailing father at his apartment. His hospice nurse, Peter Petrelli, flirts mildly with her, but she tells him she's seeing someone.
Later she visits her boyfriend Isaac Mendez at his studio. She tops him from destroying several of his paintings. He confesses that he's been using heroin again, and that he believes his paintings are coming true. When he says he plans to quit cold turkey, she calls Peter and has him meet her at her father's apartment. Taking some morphine, she tells Peter she needs him to come along because he can give a shot.
They arrive at Isaac's apartment and find he has overdosed. Simone calls 911 and cares for Isaac through the night.
Don't Look Back
Isaac wakes up the next morning with Simone still caring for him. When he again insists that his paintings are predicting future events, they argue.
One Giant Leap
Isaac returns to his studio to find Simone gathering his paintings together for a show. She tells him they can use the money to pay for rehab, and that she's thrown his drugs away. He again insists his paintings are predicting the future, and when he gives Simone an ultimatum, she leaves him.
Later,Simone runs into Peter in the lobby of her father's building. He tells her that he's quit his job as a home hospice nurse, and that he's destined to do something bigger. She tells hims she'll miss him and he tells her that everyone bumps into each other in New York sooner or later.
At Nathan Petrelli's campaign event, Simone runs into Peter. Just as they are getting closer, Nathan begins his speech. He tells the audience that his father committed suicide after a battle with depression and claims that Peter's fall was also a depression-related suicide attempt. Peter storms out and Simone follows him.
Simone runs into Peter in the street, and tells him she knows he didn't try to kill himself. They kiss, just as Isaac is looking at a sketch he drew sometime prior of the same scene.
Collision
Simone and Peter wake up together in Peter's apartment. When Peter steps outside to talk to Nathan, Simone gets dressed and ready to leave. She tells Peter she's not sure she's ready for another relationship yet.
