Summary


Story Development

Synopsis

At the slaughterhouse, Olivia and Ashley wonder what they just saw, and Ashley is describing the fact that they just saw Rebecca turn invisible and Claire impaled on a steel rod. Claire says they were attacked by wild dogs, and claims that the sorority sisters must have put hallucinogenics in the water bottles. Gretchen claims she saw Olivia and Ashley making out. Olivia accepts the story and Ashley goes along with her, and Claire say that they should all keep it to themselves. Gretchen admits that she's not okay and points out that Rebecca just tried to kill her.

In New York City, a train goes off the tracks and Peter and Hesam are moving one paralyzed patient away in the ambulance. Once Peter is sure Hesam isn't watching, he uses his mimicked healing touch to stabilize the injured man and cure his paralysis. When they arrive at the hospital, Hesam notes that Peter looks tired. As they take the patient in, Hesam observes that it's the fourth patient that isn't as badly injured as they first thought. As they go inside, Peter notices Emma watching. A shocked Emma turns away from the chaos of the ER.

In Los Angeles, Sylar in Matt's body boards an airplane to fly first class. Matt is there and demands that Sylar give him his body back. Sylar explains that they're going to New York City, saying the last thing he remembers is Peter stabbing him in the neck with a syringe. He suggests Matt just tell him what happened but Matt warns it won't happen. As they go through the security scanning devices, the airport security guard detects a gun in Sylar's bag. The security personnel arrest him while Sylar asks Matt what's going on. The guards wonder who Sylar is talking to and shove him to the floor, while Matt explains that what Sylar thought was a pair of socks was actually Matt's service revolver. Sylar tries to use Matt's telepathy to influence the guards but Matt blocks him, informing him that Sylar will never control his ability. The guards take him away as Sylar yells that he's a cop and he can explain.

At the carnival, Sylar is plagued by dreams of Nathan's life. His face changes and he wakes up with Nathan's appearance. He goes outside and walks around the grounds, and hears Samuel and Lydia talking. Sylar uses Nathan's power to fly away while Samuel comes out of Lydia's trailer and says that a situation has come up and he doesn't have a choice in the matter. Lydia notes that the Claire Bennet recruitment must not be going well, but Samuel insists he's the patron saint of lost causes and leaves.

At their dorm room, Gretchen is doing an Internet search to determine why Rebecca wants Gretchen and Annie dead. Claire plans to go to Rebecca's sorority house and see if she can find answers in Rebecca's room, but Gretchen wonders if Rebecca is in the room with them. Claire sprays talcum powder around the room to see if Rebecca is there, but Gretchen isn't reassured and suggests she should go with Claire. Claire tells her to stay there and not let anyone in the room, and hands her the talcum powder, gives her a thumbs up, and leaves.
