Mohinder sits down opposite Peter and says, "Soâ¦when you're with your brother, you can fly and when you're with the artist--" "Isaac, yeah," says Peter, "I only met him once but, after, Iâ¦drew the future." Okay, I don't remember that at all. Unless it was when Peter drew the stick figures back in the hospital room. If that's the case, it's not a very clear representation of Peter pulling powers off of others. Mohinder comments that now that he's not around either Nathan or Isaac, Peter can't fly or tell the future. Peter suppositions that maybe he can only "do things" when he's around other people who can "do things." Mohinder just smiles at him. "Does that sound as lame as I think it did?" asks Peter. "It sounds like you should be talking to my father," says Mohinder. Well, duh. Peter asks how he gets a hold of Dr. Suresh and Mohinder just says, "He's on the table," and nods his head back at the urn with his father's ashes.
Peter's kind of horrified. "Iâ¦I'm sorry." He holds Chandra's book up. "Butâ¦you believe that this is possible. I mean, you believed it this morning." Mohinder just scoffs. "What if I prove it to you?" asks Peter. "Fine," says Mohinder. "Then prove it." Peter says they could go visit Nathan, but, dammit, he's left town. He says he'll take Mohinder to Isaac's, but it's complicated. "Complicated how?" asks Mohinder, as we head off to Isaac's place.
Simone enters, and we see Isaac readying his heroin kit. That really IS complicated! He wraps a scarf around the top of his head and tells her that his paintings are by the door. She goes to check them out and says that she thought she was buying the new pieces. He says he needs the new pieces. "To tell you the future?" she sneers at him. He asks how much the old pieces will go for and she tells him she doesn't think she can sell them. "So you only like the ones I painted when I was high?" he says. "Interesting. You won't give me an advance?" "That depends on what you're going to do with the money," she says. He says he needs painting supplies. "I take it you're not talking about oils and canvas," she says, her heart totally hardened toward him.
"It was raining last night," he says. "What'd you do, Simone? In the rain?" He shows her the sketch of her and Peter kissing beneath the umbrella. "You followed me?" she asks. Nope. He drew it seven weeks ago. He also drew Peter in the painting of him falling. Before they'd ever met. "Are you in love with him?" asks Isaac. Simone says she doesn't know how she feels about Peter and she sure as hell doesn't know how she feels about Isaac. Isaac says the entire city's gonna explode unless he stops it. "You think you can save us all by shooting up?" she asks. "I can save everybody," he says. She leaves and he just laughs. "I'm gonna be a hero," he says while he looks down at his floor mural of the destruction of New York. Looks like he's finally believing Hiro's Japanese ramblings on his answering machineâ¦
