Character History
Run!
Hiro and Ando sneak into Gustavson's room disguised as hotel service staff to "retrieve" a showgirl's purse. Later, Gustavson releases Hiro from the closet where the showgirl — Hope — trapped him, and identifies himself as Nevada State Gaming Commission officer.
Unexpected
Gustavson pulls Hiro out of the closet at gunpoint and asks who Ando is. He asks him where Hope and the suitcase are. Hiro tells him to take him with him so he can save Ando. Steve initially refuses, but Hiro tells him that if he doesn't take him along then Hope will get away.
In the car, Hiro tells Steve Gustavson that he brought Ando along with him and that he's responsible for him. Steve tells Hiro that partners only get in the way. Hiro protests that a partner helps keep one honest. Steve points out that Ando was the one that wanted to help Hope, that took the suitcase, and also took their car. Steve tells him that by taking on a partner that all he'll get is blood on his hands.
Ando gathers up the chips and places them in the bag. As he finishes, Steve Gustavson and Hiro arrive. Hope hides behind Ando and points the gun at Steve. Steve tells her that he wants his share. She fires a shot and breaks the rear window of Steve's car. Steve returns fire hitting Ando in the arm. Hiro and Ando seek shelter in the luggage compartment of a bus while Hope and Steve exchange gunfire. After a large explosion, Hope walks up to the luggage compartment and points her gun at Ando. Hiro begins concentrating and Hope pulls the trigger. Hiro manages to stop time and then reverse it causing the bullet to fly back into the chamber. The resulting recoil throws her off guard and buys enough time for Steve to tackle her. He and Hope are then separated by the cops. They are later seen being arrested.
