Superstudio of Superheroes. Isaac's future-painting again. He finishes and sees the crumpled taxi and Peter sitting against it. Cut to Bennet's house where the phone is ringing. Bennet picks up and it's Isaac, saying that he thinks he's found a way to stop Peter. When did Isaac start working for Bennet? The guy forced him to do heroin to save his daughter. That's not exactly someone I'd be repaying by trying to find an exploding man. As a series of Bennet's men in black perform crime scene analysis in the background, Isaac tells Bennet that Peter's in New York, but no one can see him because he's either a ghost or invisible. Isaac asks what that means, and Bennet says, "It means an old friend isn't quite as dead as we thought he was." Ooooh.
God. Back with Hiro and Ando and the Sister and the Father and the Story that NEVER ENDS. I like all these actors, but lord, can we get past this already? Hiro tells his father that he's made the right choice and his father tells him this doesn't mean he approves of what Hiro's doing. Hiro says he doesn't have to and that life evolves and that the son he wanted to be like him will follow his own path. "Now, I have to go save the world!" He hugs his father while his father just stands there and wonders what this full-contact thing is that his son is doing. "I should never have read you those stories," he says, walking to his car. Sister Hiro thanks her brother by calling him insane and he says she's welcome and they hug. She turns to Ando, who holds his arms out for his own hug, and she's like, uh, not so much, dude. And nice cologne. What, did a cat pee on you? I'll shake your hand and then I'm outta here. "She's really starting to like me," says Ando as the car leaves. "HUH?" Hiro hilariously squeaks.
Family of Heroes Homestead. Micah knocks on his mother's door and invites her to play Scrabble with him. Inside the room, Niki smiles and laughs and says she'll absolutely play with him because she owes him a dozen. She tells him she needs a minute, and he toddles off, happy to have his mother home. Niki turns to look at her reflection in the sliding mirror, and we see that she has the helix tattoo on her right shoulder, so it's actually Jessica who's being all nice and shit, not Niki! We hear knocking on the mirror and Jessica slides the door closed, revealing Niki trapped in the mirror behind it. "Noooo!" screams Niki, enraged. "What are you so mad about, Niki?" asks Jessica. "You're the one who wanted to be locked up!" She walks off as Niki slams against the mirror some more.
