New Orleans. Damon's back and he has a bloody nose. Grandma Uhura is questioning him about the backpack. Damon says some kid on Third Street told him that he could find out how much the comics were worth, and that he only wanted to find that out and tell Micah how much money they could make. Micah angrily asks where his backpack is, and Damon says that it was all a setup and that he got jacked for the pack. Micah tackles his cousin and gets a solid punch in before Niki pulls him off. Micah says that his dad's medal was in that bag and Damon says that he'll get him a new one. Micah's like, "What, you gonna SAVE SOME PEOPLE FROM A FIRE OR SOMETHING, BITCH?" He asks if Damon's gonna get him a new dad too, and Monica puts a hand over her heart as Niki embraces her son. Damon apologizes, but Micah doesn't care. "I hate you!" he shouts. Grandma Uhura turns to Damon and says they're going to get him cleaned up, and then she's going to call the police and he's going to tell them everything that happened. She escorts him out.
Micah turns to his mother and says, "We need to get it back!" Niki says that Grandma Uhura is calling the police, but Micah doesn't give a crap about the boys in blue. He's talking about THEM, the Heroes! He looks at Monica and Niki both as he says, "We could get it back!" Niki pulls him aside and says that they've talked about this. "We need to be heroes," says Micah, "like Dad." Niki says that being a hero is what got his dad killed. She says that the medal's gone and she's sorry. Monica watches all of this unfold. Niki pulls Micah into her arms and he shoots a glance at Monica.
Back with the Wonderless Twins and the Man Who Shall Destroy Them. Sylar's packing his bag. There's a knock at the door. Sylar thinks it's Maya, but it's Alejandro. He attacks Sylar the second the door opens and says that there's no way Sylar's taking his sister. Again, he says this in Spanish, but Sylar gets the gist. He says that he tried to let Alejandro go the easy way, but he insisted on being persistent, so a fight is in order. "I'm taking my sister!" Alejandro says in English. He tries throwing a punch into Sylar's gut, but it falls short, and Sylar just flings him to the ground like a bag of salt. He goes down next to the bed, and Sylar reaches for a knife that just happens to be sitting there, next to his toiletries. He stabs Alejandro in the gut. It looks like Sylar's performing some sort of Ripper-inspired surgery on the poor lad when Maya knocks on the door and calls Sylar's name. He smiles down at Alejandro's dead body.
Outside, Maya continues to knock and call his name. Suddenly, the door swings open and Sylar appears, soaking wet and wearing only a towel. I...I'm sorry. Is...there a...scene associated with this vision? I am...excuse me. I have to get this out. ZACHARY QUINTO IS SHIRTLESS. I am currently convinced that the writers and producers and director have all made it their unified goal to have at least ONE person shirtless per episode. And for that I am thankful. Please, please, please, can this strike be settled soon so that I may look forward to even MORE shirtless hot guys every Monday night? PLEASE. I'm really only thinking of me. And the writers of course. BUT REALLY, THIS IS ABOUT ME. AND THE SHIRTLESS GUYS.
