History
Don't Look Back
Isaac wakes up after painting the explosion on the floor of his apartment and tells Simone that they have to warn someone, suggesting that they contact Homeland Security.
Nothing to Hide
Tom McHenry congratulates Matt Parkman on his FBI bust in the "Homeland Security collar."
Seven Minutes to Midnight
Audrey warns Matt that after an hour of interrogation with Ted, he will be sent "down the rabbit hole" as a suspected terrorist by Homeland Security.
Five Years Gone
In a potential future, Matt Parkman is the director of Homeland Security. In Isaac's apartment, Hiro and Ando are talking with Future Hiro when Matt and his team storm in. Hiro is captured by Matt and held in a Homeland Security facility in New York. Matt personally interrogates Hiro and determines that he has no memory of the events of the past five years.
Later, Matt and his team go to Odessa to capture Future Hiro and Ando, only to be thwarted by Peter. Matt meets Bennet. They discuss their involvement in an underground railroad for evolved humans. Mr. Bennet finds Hana Gitelman's dead body behind a desk. Matt remarks that Bennet's tip failed to pan out, and since he can't go back empty handed he is ending their arrangement. Matt reads Bennet's mind to find the location of Claire, killing him afterwards. Matt locates Claire at the Burnt Toast Diner and delivers her to President Nathan Petrelli, unknowing that Nathan is really Sylar.
Matt goes to the Homeland Security facility where he meets with the Haitian, who works for him and is ensuring Hiro's safety by blocking use of powers on that floor. Nathan sends his Chief Medical Advisor Mohinder Suresh to execute Hiro, and Mohinder enters the room where Hiro is being held by the Haitian.
Peter, Ando and Future Hiro break into the Homeland Security facility to rescue Hiro. Setting off the guards' alarm, Matt and his team are alerted to their attempt and guard the elevators. But when Mohinder decides to kill the Haitian instead of Hiro; Peter, Ando and Future Hiro are able to teleport to the floor bypassing Matt and his team. Matt realizes what has happened and shoots Future Hiro before Peter can get the door closed. When they are unable to enter the room, Matt calls the President and tells him his brother is blocking the door. The President arrives and drags Peter through the door. While Sylar keeps Peter occupied, Matt's team continues to try to enter but Mohinder holds the door closed long enough for Hiro and Ando to teleport back to present time.
The Line
Peter and Caitlin, arriving in a desolate Times Square, when Peter picks up an evacuation order. It says that Homeland Security has ordered an evacuation on June 14, 2008.
Out of Time
Peter, captured while wandering the desolate streets of New York in the future by a CDC hazmat crew, meets with Howard Lemay, a Homeland Security agent who is working with the CDC to stop the spread of the Shanti virus. Howard shows Peter's death certificate to Peter and asks how he is in New York and why he isn't infected. When Peter asks where Caitlin is Howard tells her she's been deported to Ireland since she isn't American. He goes on to tell Peter about the virus and how it has killed 93% of the world's population. He shows Peter a room full of dead bodies, telling him, "It's been a tough week."
Later, Howard arranges a meeting for Peter with his mother, Angela Petrelli, who helps him remember his past.
