Synopsis
At the scene of Ricky's murder, Caitlin looks at an old picture of her brother. Peter apologizes for the incident, as the killer was looking for him, and he shouldn't have let Ricky cover for him. He states that he will not risk Caitlin's life, and that he has to go to Montreal. She insists to go with him, since she is in the painting with him. Peter asks why she has to go with him, and she claims the reason is to "kill the bitch."
At Costa Verde High School, Claire tries out for the cheerleading squad with two other girls. After performing a back hand spring, Debbie cuts the girls off. She shouts that it is irritating watching "ordinary" people with no talent. May tries to change Debbie's mind, saying that Claire was incredible, but Debbie uses her status as a way to make the rest of the squad take her side. Claire thanks May for trying.
In a gym at the Company's hospital, Monica copies the moves of a gymnist on the television for Mohinder, who is testing her. When she asks about others like her, he tells her that there are others but their powers are different, that she was the first to demonstrate "adoptive muscle memory." Bob enters and reassures her that her ability is incredible. Monica asks who he is, and he introduces himself as chief of operations for the Company. He asks to speak to Mohinder in private. He reveals to Mohinder the next step of the testing: a variation of the Shanti virus. Mohinder explains that they could create an incurable version of the virus, and that it can spread, but Bob treats it as a risk they need to take. Mohinder tries to reason that Monica is a nice girl who loves her ability, but Bob is still willing to make Mohinder inject her. Later, on the phone, Mohinder explains Bob's plans to Noah, who is with the Haitian. Noah tells Mohinder that he has to take the risk, or else they will get rid of him and they will lose everything they've worked for. He explains that they have to do bad things sometimes in order to take down the Company.
In Odessa, Ukraine, a woman escorts her grandson outside, wishing her husband goodbye. After the two leave, Ivan finds the Haitian and Noah in his house. Noah greets his "old friend", knocking him out with a gun.
West comes up to Claire during lunch, only to find that she is upset about not making cheerleading. When West asks why she didn't make the team, Claire explains that Debbie didn't find her extraordinary. She explains that none of the other girls will stand up to Debbie, so West tells her that maybe she should stand up to her and give her a taste of her own medicine.
Outside Parcela Delgado, Mexico, Maya, Alejandro and Sylar continue towards America. Sylar tells Maya that she has a fascinating ability, but Maya tells him that she has killed many people because of it. Sylar tells her about his previously working abilities of telekinesis and enhanced hearing, but they went away and he needs Dr. Suresh's help. She ask why he wants the ability, and he tells her he wants to be special. Alejandro wakes up in the back seat and suggests they get a coyote to cross into America, leaving Sylar behind. Sylar tells Maya that he can get them into the country, and she tells him that she's glad they found him.
Ando walks in on Tatsuya Atsumi as he reads Hiro's scrolls. He shows him an exciting portion of the text, but Ando demands to start where they left off. Hiro continues his story of his quest with Kensei and Yaeko while they are on Kiso Mountain. The day before they invade Whitebeard's camp, Hiro asks Yaeko not to go into battle, but she insists that when she is with Kensei, she cannot be harmed. She wonders where they will find her father, and Hiro recalls the tale that Kensei found him in the tent that smolders. She insists that they cannot guess when Kensei arrives, telling her that her father is in the smoldering tent. Yaeko shoots Hiro a look, and he tells the couple that they should begin to get ready.
