Hiro's fruitlessly trying to use his belt to do some business with the vent, and Ando gets frustrated with how useless and stupid he's being, so he grabs it, and the two of them have a little tug of war, won by Ando, who follows up by getting the belt hooked properly and pulling the vent cover off on the first try, because he is the member of the team that is not a useless boob, and I only wish someone would hand Hiro's powers to Ando and never look back. Speaking of which, how exactly are Hiro's powers being suppressed? Does The Haitian have to wait outside the door 24/7, and if so, did they at least give him something interesting to read? Anyway, Ando tells Hiro to enjoy his escape, since clearly Hiro doesn't want him around, but Hiro of course can't get up to the vent himself, so he asks for Ando's help again. Cut to Hiro struggling on Ando's shoulders, and as he does, he tells Ando that he's always been by his side, and he's been a terrible friend to him. Ando: "Maybe now is not the time for apologies." Heh, Hiro can't even get that right. Hiro swears he can change not only the future but also himself, and then he makes it up to the vent, and there is much celebration -- until Ando turns to see The Haitian standing there with an unamused look on his face. Hiro, sensing something's wrong, tremulously calls Ando's name. Heh.
