Bennet says that the organization he used to work for used to have standards and morals and a guiding mission; now, however, it's just gone straight to hell and is run by a bunch of sneaky, murderous bastards. Mo picks up immediately on the "used to" part of Bennet's speech and questions it. Bennet's like, "Yeah, I used to punch in on their time clock, but now? All I care about is my family." Mohinder's like, "All I care about is Molly. And I won't let her be used for evil means. She can do good in this world." Bennet says that if the OWI gets their hands on her, he won't have a choice in the matter. Mohinder declares that because she has his antibodies running around in her system, he's responsible for her. That's when Matt runs in and says that something's wrong with Molly.
Bennet's phone rings and it's Claire. She tells him that they're still in New York and that Sylar got Ted's brain. Bennet's like, "Well, there goes Plan A, then." He tells her to put Peter on the phone. After I recover from a bout of giggles brought on by the ludicrous sight of Milo Ventimigilia with a bright pink Sidekick held to the side of his face, I'm able to concentrate on the scene at hand. Bennet tells Peter that since he has Ted's power now, he's the only one who can possibly stop Sylar. Peter stoically takes this news and just says, "Now all we have to do is find him. Any idea where we start?" He's very sexy in this moment, even while talking into that stupid bubblegum phone. Bennet says he has a tracking system they can use, but that it's being fixed right now; as soon as it's up and running, he'll call Peter back with Sylar's whereabouts. "Whatever you do, you keep Claire safe," says Bennet. They hang up.
Peter immediately drives into a parking garage. Claire's like, "What the hell are we doing in a garage?" Peter doesn't answer, but it soon becomes clear what they're doing there when he parks in front of a still-glowering Nathan. Is he in a permanent bad mood or what? Lighten up, Nathan! You're about to become the leader of the free world! Peter holds up his finger to Nathan in the universal sign of "Just gimme a minute here" as Nathan stares at them both. Claire's pissed. She thinks Peter lied to her and that they can't trust Nathan. Peter says they can and that Nathan's never let him down. He hasn't, really, but that doesn't mean you should trust him, Peter. The guy's constantly one step away from shady, dude. "Think about it, Claire," says Peter. "We can't do this alone." "No, YOU think about it!" Claire snaps at him. Hee. I love it when she gets all bitchy on him. Claire thinks Peter's being a tool. She says that Nathan doesn't care about anyone except himself. "He doesn't care about ME and I'm his own daughter!" Good point, Claire. Peter finally gets to the truth of the matter and says that he's afraid and he needs his brother to help them. He overhears Claire's thoughts, but since they're just a rehash of the "You lied to me" variety, they're not all that noteworthy.
