Back to Molly and Mohinder. Molly's still out cold. Mohinder kisses her on the forehead. Tobby appears and asks for a word with Mohinder. They step outside the room, where Tobby apologizes for asking Mohinder to do the vaccine injection on Monica. He excuses his behavior by saying that he's dealing with someone right now who could be even more dangerous than Sylar. "Adam Monroe?" says Mohinder. Tobby confirms this. He goes on to say that Mohinder is valuable to The Company, not just because of his blood or his knowledge, but because of his high moral standards. Tobby wants him to continue to be the moral compass by which The Company navigates; he wants Mohinder to keep them in line. Mohinder says that since Molly's sick, he can't very well leave, even though that's exactly what he was going to do not five minutes ago. Mohinder doesn't think he can trust Tobby, so Tobby offers to provide him with someone who can make sure there are no further misunderstandings. Dude. This wasn't a misunderstanding -- you ordered Mohinder to possibly kill an innocent girl. That's not a misunderstanding. That's a royal Mongolian clusterfuck.
Japan. Again. So Kensei cuts the chains and they run through the camp and everyone chases after them and Kensei fights off one guard at a time, and then a thug shows up with a gun and aims at Yaeko and Hiro and Hiro sees this and squints his eyes and grabs Yaeko and...they wind up in a distant region of Northern California somewhere. Yaeko's thoroughly freaked out, seeing as they're no longer in running through White Beard's camp and all. She asks what Hiro's done, but before he can answer, we cut to commercials.
After the break, Hiro is walking up the California hillside that's standing in for ancient Japan as Yaeko follows him, sniping at him to tell her what the hell is going on. Hiro tries to fake that he didn't do anything, and that Kensei will explain everything, but Yaeko's no dummy. She tells him that she knows HE did it because he held her and then...they were here. She knows Hiro can move people from one place to another. And then she covers up the lower part of his face and realizes that he was the one who saved her from the thugs. He says he only wanted to fix history. She says he was the one under the cherry blossoms. "Do you...love me, Hiro?" "I do! Very much!" "Everything I loved in Kensei came from you!" Yaeko moves toward Hiro, and they're about to kiss when Hiro stops time and says, "But...the space/time continuum..." And then he goes, "Fuck it," and restarts time and then they're totally making out. Unfortunately, Kensei's watching this whole thing from a distance, because taking out an entire army only takes a few minutes and allows you to wander the countryside until you accidentally happen upon your friends making out in a field. "It was the kiss that fractured time," says Hiro in a voice-over as we switch back to Ando in the restorer's office. "It changed me forever, Ando." Then, suddenly, the voice-over stops. Ando's all, "Bwuh?" It would appear that that was the last scroll, and the story stops right there. Of course, it totally doesn't; it just stops for Ando. We'll catch up with the end of Hiro's story later.
